Ills relurn brought with the happiest Thanksgiving ever enjoyed in lbs hotnu of Michael Murphy, at 41 Snyder avenue, Flatbush. where Catherine and Mary and Tommy Murphy had been mourning for three days for their missing pet.

Catherine's letter announcing Sandy's return Is as follows: "To the Editor of Ihe Brooklyn I'agle: "I write you to let you kuow thai my dog Sandy was brought back lo me today.

My father desires me to thank you very much for Ihe publication you save my letter ami photo. It was much more than wc expected. The fact that you could give such space and publicity lo a child's I'Oinmunicntion In yaur Rreat paper is only a sample of your usual kindness and generosity.

Tho Ictlor was printed in tile Eagle nitli a picture of Sandy standing between Thomas and Mary, sister and brother. As the day follows the night, the publication of tho loss of Sandy was followed with a quick recovery. Kor ihe past year Sandy has been in the household of the Murphy family, aud has been the prime pet and favorite of Catherine.

She cared for him, while another girl cared for their dolls. Sandy's disappearance almost broke i Catherine's heart. She became more hopeful after Sandy's picture wa pub- lished in the Kagle, but she had none of her usual Joy over the approach of Thanksgiving. Catherine cautioned her mother on Wednesday night to wake her early yesterday, as she was determined on going mass at Holy Cross Church, a block away. Catherine is a devout little girl, and she prayed fo St.

Anthony to aid her in locating Sandy. After that she Had faith that her prayers and the Eagle i would bring Sandy home. I Catherine was reading her school book shortly after turkey hour yesterday when there was a knock on the door. The knock was unnecessary ns there was a familiar! wagging of the tail against the floor. Catherine hurriedly answered the knock, nnd saw before her a tall man and Sandy trying lo hide behind.

The dog seemed to be in the plot to surprise Catherine. It was the same man from whom Mr. Murphy bad purchased Sandy, and he came from his home In Windsor Terrace to convey Saudy to his worried friends. Soon thanks were offered and the man had departed. Sandy was taken Inside, where he was made hero of the occasion.

He was given the choicest bits of turkey. Nothing was loo good for him. For fear he might disappear again be was taken In leash and tied to the parlor door Nothing but the parlor for Sandy. Little Tom and Mary could hardly repress their Joy. It was Indeed a happy Thanksgiving.

MAY HAVE TO GO TO COURTS. Hazlewood May Be Nominated Republicans, and Carroll or Clancy by Democrats. by Governor Hughes bas called a special election for December 21 for the purpose of filling the place in tho State Senate made vacant by the death of Senator Mc-Carren. The Board of Elections and the two political parties are at sea regarding the manner In which nominations for the vacant Senatorshlp should bo made. Commissioner John Edward Smith has devoted the last two days to tho study of tho question and was forced to-dny to call for tho expert opinion of Jacob Brenner, chairman of the Republican executive committee.

After reviewing the election law the Constitution and all other authorities bearing on the question. Judge Brenner said: "The law is inadequate and Inexplicit. We'll do as we please about It." The situation which Is puzzling tho legal minds, briefly stated, Is this: There Is no set ot delegates in either party with authority to hold a nominating con-venton for senator In the Seventh Senatorial District. No special election for senator has been held in the metropolitan district or in any district governed by the state primary law, since that law-went into effect In 1899. Under that law the only method of electing delegates to a nominating convention is by party primaries.

There is no explicit provision for primaries to nominate for a special election. There are two sorts of primaries spoken of in the primary law, "official" and "unofficial." The law, under the caption "Official Primaries," says that In ordinary years, the sixth Tuesday before tho general election shall be the "annual" primary day. In Section 50 of the law there is a provision for "Unofficial" primaries, which are called by the party authorities and not by the Board of Elections, The question which confronts the party solons is whether' the primaries to elect delegates to nominate candidates for the senatorshlp are "official" or "unofficial." Republicans believe the primaries will be of the "unofficial" variety. This conclusion was reached by Judge Brenner. As there are only twenty days between now and the day set for the special election, December 21, the party organizations and the Board of Elections will have their hands full getting ready.

The law provides that the nominations must be filed with the board at least fifteen days before the election takes nlace. That leaves only six days for the holding of the primaries and the conventions. The Republican executive committee will hold a special meeting Monday afternoon to determine when and when the primaries and the conventions Bhall be held. If the Brenner view maintains there will be but one Republican polling place In each Assembly district. The Democrats had not yet given the question much consideration.

If they should take the view that the primaries are "official," it Is not unlikely that there will be a more or less serious mix-up over the matter, which may have to be taken to the courts. The leading Republican candidate for the nomination is Edgar H. Hazelwood, who ran against Senator McCarren at the last election. He lives in the Fifteenth Assembly District. Henry Lissner, of the Fourteenth, is also a candidate for the nomination.

There Is some talk of nominating an Independent Democrat. There Is also Borne talk of Indorsing the former Independence League candidate, Philip N. Cassldy. The Democrats of. the district appear inclined to concede the nomination to tho Fourteenth Assembly District, which was MoCarren's district.

The lending candidates from this district are: Daniel J. Carroll. John J. Clancy, Daniel S. Dorian, John M.

Haley, James V. Short, Jr. From the Fifteenth District only one man's name haB been mentioned, that of George W. Cavanagh. NO REPORT FROM CANVASSERS Board to Meet Monday Night to Decide What Is to Be Done.

The Board of County Canvassers has not yet completed the making of the official returns on the vote cast at the recent election, because of the many mistakes which were discovered In the tally sheets. Not until after a meeting of the board, which has been called for Monday morning In the Borough Hall, by Chairman John Diemer, can the final result be made known. It all depends on whether any ot the ballot boxes are to be opened or not. According to Alderman Diemer. an opinion has Just been rendered by Assistant Corporation Counsel Bell that will prevent the opening of the ballot boxes by the board.

Colonel Bell says that no boxes need be opened, but that the board should make the official returns from Ihe tally Bheets, Just as they were certified to by the election Inspectors.

NEARLY FEUD OVER AFFAIR. Couple Overcome Opposition of the Bride's Mother at Thanksgiving Dinner. When Cupid went into the Syrian colony, in the neighborhood of Henry and Amity streets, and marked for marriage two Mallouks, first cousins, he did not reckon with ecclesiastical, law and wrought trouble for his victims in their church. "Little Dan" then left Mr. Mai-louk and Miss Mallouk to work out their own salvation, which they did by going to a Protestant minister to be married.

Incidettally the bride's mother, Mrs Marie Mallouk, who lives at 135 Amity street, became estranged from nor daughter and the cousin whom she married, for the reason that the young man and womau were cousins. The mother's opposition melted away yesterday, however, and sue had the bride and bridegroom at her home for a Thanksgiving dinner. The bridegroom is Hablb Joseph Mal-loufc. 23 years old. of 33S Henry street, a stone's throw from Amity street, the home ot his bride, Rose Nicola Mnllouk.

22 years old. Bride and bridegroom are children of brothers. Rose was born in Alexandria. Egypt, the daughter of Nicholas Mallouk. and Joseph was born in Damascus, Syria, the son of Joseph Mallouk.

Their parents brought them to America when they were youngsters, an 1 they have lived In the Syrian colony for a number of years. Mrs. Marie Mallouk. the bride's mother, said to-day that the young people did not attend the Greek orthodox church, as most Syrians do. but were Roman Catholics.

They had besought their priest to marry thorn, but he refused, Inasmuch as the Catholic Church prohibits marriage between first cousins. The girl's mother was herself opposed to the union on the same ground, as she said to-day, but "everything is all right now. and has been since the dinner yesterday." Love was stronger with the young couple than religion, and when It came to an Issue, they abandoned their church, and sought out the Rev. Waldo Adams Amos, curate in the church ot the Holy Trinity, on the Heights. They went to Mr.

Amos at noon on Wednesday, with their witnesses and asked to be wed. They told the curate that they were first cousins, but that was no bar in the Episcopal Church, and the ceremony was quietly performed. The couple went on their way rejoicing to the Hotel St. George. Thov left thcro ycsteiday.

and are apparently on their honeymoon, having remained over Thanksgiving in Brooklyn to make pence with the bride's mother. Mrs. Mallouk. said to-day that her new son-in-law wan a doctor, but the marriage license offdavit filled out by him. had him a salesman.

He wns known as "the doctor" at the house in Henry street in which he had a room. BLAMES THEFT OF GOOSE Prize Bird Is Purloined From Its Coop at Dawn of Thanksgiving Day. Canarsle has come Into the limelight once again, but this time It Is a goose that has Introduced the historical name tor public presentation. A dead goose at that.

Jacob was the owner of a collection of pretty geese, snow white blrdB, which he made a practice of cooping in his chicken house. He thinks it strange that but one goose should meet its death, as the number of large chickens and turkeys that form his collection Is a large one. Residents of the place have for years taken on tho spirit of '76 and.

like their ancestors, have made a specialty of raising poultry. So Jacob, who Is a patriarch of the place, raised the geese, and the chickens and the turkeys, with an aim to rustic peace and repose, not to be disturbed by Intruders. When he went Into his chicken coop yesterday morning to annually dispose of the Thanksgiving gobbler, Jacob discovered that he had nothing much to be thankful for. He learned by counting them that one of his geese was missing. An Investigation of the surroundings was made and footprints on the ground indicated that some one had been there during the night.

Jacob went to the Canarsle station and the police examined Into the case. A detective was sent out, and soon he had succeeded In arresting a man whom he found carrying a dead goose. It proved to be Michael Buckley. Michael could not give a very good account of himself and the detective arrested him. At the Canarsle station Jacob Identified the goose as his and decided to make a complaint against Michael.

In the Flatbush court to-day Buckley told Magistrate Nash that he had been drinking and he was not responsible for anything he had done on Wednesday night. He was held for the Special Sessions in $500 bail. PLAYED WHILE STOEM H.AGED.
