Michael Regan of Middletown, Conn., has a bulldog that has quite a history. Nearly a year ago the dog was given to one of Mr. Regan's friends in Portland, on account of his pugilistic tendencies. He was in the habit of spending a good deal of his time on Main street, where he would attack every dog that came his way, rogardless of size.

The ornamentation of the Cincinnati bell Is believed to ba more elaborate than that of any other in existence. Civic and ecclesiastical decorations will both have place making It at once ;an emblem of patriotic feeling and a consecrated Instrument of worship. Encircling the body of the bell, just above the sounding bow, Is the Latin text of the Lord's Prayer in true Goth-'l- c characters, about seven inches high. .Above this, on the civic half, the ,American eagle hovers over the great seal of the TJnited States an Impression of which was sent directly from the White house. Beneath this Is the seal of the State of Ohio, pierced by the staffs that support the stars and stripes, which fall in graceful folds on the other side; and beneath this Is the seal of the city of Cincinnati. Medal-Ion- s of the deceased donor and family complete the design. On the ecclesiastical half of the bell, under the' surmounting tiara, is a medallion of Pope Leo XIII., with his seal beneath it.

Among the students of the college's tentative days none shone more brilliantly or made deeper inroads on the affections of the founder and his wife than the gentle Adaline Shepherd. She was in her senior year when Mrs. Mann proposed that at the completion of the course she should accompany the Haw- thornes to Rome. The girl Joined the Hawthornes in Rome, where she continued her studies, drinking in the art life on every side and perfecting herself in modern lan guages, for which she had an Inherent talent.
