The negroes now own church property valued at $57,000,000 Negro Baptists con- duct mission work in five Troreign countries. They have 132 stations and ninety-seven missionaries. In the past five years the negroes of Jacksonyille have given $44,000 toward the erection of a $50,000 in- « stitutional church. More than $17,- 000,000 is invested in property for the education of the negro.

Herbert C. Cox President and General Manager A Japanese Dog. Some of the Japanese papers tell of a large dog that for the past quar- ter of a century has had its home in the Japanese Naval Officers' club at Kure. Naturally the dog has made friends with most of the omwcers. It ig a good-tempered animal, and has never been known to steal anyin:ng. In his younger days the dog was quite active and playful, but he now spends most of the time lymg and sleeping outside the gate. In rainy weather his bushy back is sometimes used by careless club members for a door mat, to wipe their boots upon, but the dog never seems to complain. Long experience has trained the dog so well that Lic distinguishes all sorts of bugle calls at their first sound, and from "reveille'" to "lights out' each call finds him at his pro- per station.
