A Dog that Knew a Tune.
Does your dog know a tune? In Trenton, New Jersey, two famous dogs are owned. One is said to be worth $200. Some months ago both were stolen. All attempts to find them were in vain, and money rewards proved unavailing. Recently the owner went to a barn where he thought they might be. He whistled, but got no response. He was just leaving the premises when he recalled that one of the dogs always showed unusual life and joy whenever he whistled the tune, popular years ago, under the title "Captain Jinks," who belonged to certain marines. He whistled this tune at a venture, and was at once rewarded by a vigorous whine which he readily recognized. The dog knew the tune, and the result was the recovery by the owner of his two valuable dogs, and the arrest of the thief who had stolen them.
