The pets of distinguished men have in many instances shared the fame of their masters. Perhaps none are | 80 well known to the reading public as the dogs of Bir Walter Scott, which hold an honorable place both In their | owner's romances snd in his blo. | graphies. It has been pointed out that the most renowned writer of French historic flotion, no lees than the great British novelist, was an ardent lover of dogs. Alexandre Dumas, the elder, was, in fact, almost helplessly responsive to the demands of even any casual animal upon his care and affection. Uninvited dogs. were continually quartering themselves on his estate or pattering unrebuffed at his heels. At Monte Cristo, his country place, they became such a nuisance that Michel, his gardener, at last protest- ed, and called attention to the fact that the number had increased to thirteen. "An unlucky number," Dumas . "See that it is changed." "Will monsieur let me turn one away, and then there will be only twelve?" "No, encourage Pritichard to in- | «. STOCK MARKETS, Quotations. Furnishd by Bongard, vite another, which will bring them ' up to fourteen." The hospitable Pritichard, whose efforts as a canine host were thus backed by his master, was a clever and handsome .cotch pointer, Du- mas' favorite companion. Sharing his master's generous temperament, he lot developed a habit of sitting in the jt road just outside the gates on the lookout for strange dogs of passage, | Whom he would fraternally entice within. Sometimes those that accept ed remained merely for a meal; Sometimes for a week; sometimes for a month; sometimes permanently. They were never driven away. Some time after the failure of Michel's protests, however, other members of the family took a hand in the matter, and Dumas was at last induced to appeal to his friends to help him out by adopting the strays that he was too soft-hearted to expel. They responded nobly and adopted, thirteen of the dogs. Only Pritichard waa retained, and he re- mained his master's close companion 50 long as he lived. Once only necessary to proeure the consent of the governor of the fort- 'But Pritichard felt that some- thing was wrong; he knew two men were talking about him and he did not like the rather officious atten- tions of the ernor his permit, and Dumas his con- sent.
