Augustus Caesar Dodge.

The Washington correspondent Of
the Cincinnati Commercial is pen
picturing the eminent blockheads
who misrcpresented us abroad under
the democratic regime.
Naturally enough he puts our own
Augustus Caesar Dodge, at the head
of these distinguished boobies, whose
life like portrait which follows be-
low, will be readily recognized with
the naked eye.
II don't believe | will ever forget
that eminent diplomatist sent to
Spain as the successor of the accom-
plished and able master of cunning
force, Pierre Soule. Nature got
Caesar up in a fit of grotesque gen
erousity, very literally out Of exceed
ingly coarse material, and when ma
ture set him on end, alive and capable
of digestion, l doubt not but nature
INDUCED in hearty fit of laughter.
He was large man, addicted to a
swallow-tailed coat, of blue cloth
and brass buttons, and huge stove
pipe tilted back on the bump of self
esteem. He knew just as much of
civilized life as a COW would of q
camp meeting, and people got out of
his way, instinctively, as they would

Augustus had that everlasting plug
of hat on the back Of his head, and

In his first informal interview
with the French Minister of Foreign
Affairs, he cooked himself back in

SoLp.-lt appears that quite a
handsome young lady, who is not
above her business, as many young
ladies nowadays are, has been on
gagged as domestic servant, at one
of the hotels within the city limits
A Coloradoan with abundance of
stamps, stopping at this hotel, took
fancy to her, and for sometime q
vigorous courtship was carried on
As general thing landlords are sus-
picious of such things, and a sharp
eye was kept on the parties. On
Wednesday night the gentleman re-
tired to his room as usual alone, but
another party at the hotel, shortly
afterwards saw female enter and
the door close after her. He imme-
diately informed the landlord of what
had transpired, and the latter grow
ing indignant, Immediately raised all
the boarders on the same floor for a
general chase. He himself took the
lead, armed with a Ratchet. They
gathered around the door, and o
summons ofsurrender was made
The Coloradoan demanded by what
authority, and was told that the SER
want girl was in the room, and that
they must come out.
The landlord was told to remain at
the door till morning, and sec if she
came out. Three minutes were given
to open the door, or they would
break it down. At the end of the
three minutes the door opened in the
ordinary way, and piece Of paper
was thrust out. The landlord took
it and handed il to one of the bystan-
ders to read. The latter began "By
the authority ofthe State of Iowa
and was suddenly stopped by the
landlords hurting out "Hold, by
gracious / am sold we must set up
the gin on that" and the twain were
allowed to occupy their room undis-
turbed for the remainder of the night,
while the generous. hearted landlord
poured deep libations in honor of the
practical joke. The couple had been
quietly married by Justice in the
evening and thus succeeded in vic
timizing their generous host and the
other guests, especially the one who
guessed wrong.-CouncH Bluffs Non
