His many friends would have been glad had the powers, that be seen fit to return him to the Greeley circuit, but as he is an entertaining preacher, other points wanted such an one, and so a change was made.

The Methodists of Iola will be kind to themselves if they give him and his estimable wife a christians welcome. Rev. Showalter will serve the Greeley circui, the present confernce year- Barney Sheridan, of the Western Spirit, is trying to smirch the reputation of Bell, of the Paola Times.

Gazette was informed recently of a remarkable example of sagacity understanding and obedience in a dog. The animal is what is called a shepherd dog, is ten years old, was bom in Montana and cannot understand English, the man who raised him being a Mexican.

This Mexican is now in tho employ of by his dog. About a week ago he laid lhe following extraordinary wager with one of his employers: He bet his dog and a year's work against $100 that the dog would stay on the ranch alone, unattended by any hu-mam being, for live days; that the animal would take the sheep to pasture in the morning and bring them to the corral at night, and iu fact look out for the sheep in every way as well as a man could. The bet was taken and the Mexican, first hanging up plenty of meat for the dog to eat, gave his instructions to his dumb assistant and left the ranch, coming to town. Last Sunday the money was paid over by Mr. Schiappa Pietra, the dog having carried out, for five days, the instructions of his master and winning the wager for him.

The Mexican says his employer! are very rich (and of course they are.) but they have not money enough to buy that dog. Russia will not wear crepe over Bis-mark's resignation. K. C. Times.
