A_ poodle, named Babe, probably because celebrated for “home-runs, and owned by a Mrs Bennhoff, has been left an estate of $5,000, which is to be administered by a court. Also, 287 Clevelanders have been bitten by dogs, during the past 30 day an average of about 9.6 bites a day, seemingly a high average, considering that the dogs have to bite folks full of Lake Erie chlorine. Of course, the general run of Cleve- landers object to becoming dog-meat, in the summer solstice, anyhow. At this distance, it appears that some reform might be accomplished by informing all the dogs of the good Babe's delicious prospects.
