Police Dogt Quickly
Showed Their Qualitj
The Hist city In the world to Instnl
dotfs as regular members of the nolle
force was the quaint old city of (.Ihent
' In ttoteiciii. Vears tpo the chief ot
police of Ghent pointed out to tlx
fovernluR authorities Uiat a cleverl.v
trained dog could run down a crltn
Inal more surely and quickly than nn,
two-lejsed policeman, aad that It wn
better to risk a dog's life rather that
tliat of an officer. The Idea found
favor and the chief was commissioned
to cet his dogs. This he did anf
trained them to distinguish betweer
skulking criminals and the ordlnnrj
regulable citizen, who walks by day
Sperlul kennels were built in the police
nations, and collars, coats and mux
(lea were provided In the way of unl
forms. The dogs proved particularly
useful to the police at night and
tared much running backwards and
forwards. These dogs are so highly
Intelligent that ihey refuse food from
strangers, bring home lost children,
etc. Many of them are so anxious tr
get a "case" that they will follow and
look askance at a person of suspicion
apiiearance. The (ilea proved such a
success that other municipalities fol
lowed the example of Ghent. rath

Pacloma canyon, in the mountains
r;it of San Kernamlo mission lu Cali
fornia, contains, a wording to tradi
tion, a great chvst if gold beaten Into
the form of pluli aud platter for
nltar and dining s- ivhe. Some esti
mates place the xh.m of the treasure
at 1,l0.i0. I'acloma canyon Is wild
and rugged but m.-n hare time and

by a map on a tanned sheepskin,
sketched with a hot metal point hy a
Kan Fernundu padre himself, the seek

If tradition I true history, the chest
contains the largest assortment of gold
plates and platters ever beaten into
form by Indian smiths of any of the
missions In the Cal.fornlag, either be
low or above the Mexican boundary
line. liojtrio Itoch.i, gold and sllvei
smith at the San Fernando mission,
not only helped beat the plntps and
patters, hut he was ore of the iru-tcil
party that bid the golden utcii.ll

Koch a died he took from his old

point, and told one of bis Indian '
friends It was a map showing the loca

forts to follow the n:i:p to the ohi-st
of gold have been futile. I.ann. s M-Pbetrld.-e,

nightingale No Right
on Poetic Peictlal?
The poets have the nightingale nil
wrong. He Is the r. Islest, most Incon
) iderate, most ohstn-iM-rons and Jaunty
bird In the whole kingdom of uliiH.
II D. Lawrence, writing In the Forme,
asserts. How John Kents munaed in
lgln his "Ode to n Vlg htliigale" 'i :
"My heart aches, at. I a drowsy ex. .li
nes pains my son Is a mjsi :-y
to anybody acqunli' - ! r-!th the act:;::!
rung. Vou hear ! nightingale .t
verily shouting: "V.. ? What? h: f.
John? Heartache" ' I drowsy nun li
lies palnsj tra-lulu: lil-lillljlll,vi,i;
II,."
And why the Cre-fcn sulci he, or she,
was sobhli.g In a bti;h for a lost lover,
again I don't know.
Perause, In sober fart, the nlhtln
rale sings with a ringing, pl'iclnng
vividness uml a prlstltic iik-kiII vciicsii
Hint makes a mere in an stand r'.lll.
The nightingale Is Ihn most llnsad
thing In Ihe world: even more utnad
than the pencix'k full of gh-ant. Ilu
I as nothing to b sail ubmt. He
fi-els perfect with life.
