A Remarkable Dog.

These was once a remarkable dog in Austin. It knew its master’s step and his habits and would never bite him. His owner loved him and said he would not take SSOO for him. One night his owner came home perfectly sober and tliree hours earlier than usual. The dog, not haring beep notified of this change in the programme, mistook him for an intruder and bft him in nine teen places. Next day the owner bad the dog executed by a policeman. All efforts to obtain a commutation failed, and yet it was a clear case of mistaken identity, and the dog had an unpracticed mind.—Texas Siftings.
