Some new political deal is about to be
set on foot at the executive depart
ment." said Deputy Insurance Commits
SiOner Todd to Auditor Braden yester-
day.
'Why, how's that-what is ito"
Queried the auditor.
1T Won't work." said Deputy TODD.
"We're all on to it. Such bare-faced
scheme won't work here just at pres
ent.''
''Have you been attending any more
conventions, Todd?' said Deputy Audi
tor Kenyon, at this point, ''or what is
up"
Come across the hall and I'll show
you" he replied. The invitation was

himself, then Deputy Kenyon, closely
followed by Hon. S. G. Nerson, I'll. G.
GriSWOld. Il. III. l.. JeWett, G.. G..
Thomas, w. l.. Vincent, and Major Jen-
sen. AS soon as all were nicely inside
the room Todd, with fiendish sort of
smile, pointed to Angel and Milliken,
the governors clerk and stenographer,
and the conspiracy was revealed in all
its banefu1 hideOusnesS. A few DAYS
since these gentlemen each possessed
tlStiooOiitO D1oWll DuU Ill dill
evil moment they were induced to turn
them over to the tender mercies of a
barber. Angel now prides himself on
the fact that he strongly resembles
Henry Clay, while Milliken hasn't de-
cided just whom he does resemble, as
yet.
