THE DRUNKARD'S DOG.
He Saved His Master from Being Sent to

He Saved His Master from Being Sent to
the Prison.
The New York Times reports that
Policeman Logan, of that city, saw a
man lying intoxicated on the pave
ment, and went toward him, meaning
to wake him. AS he drew near, how
ever, he sawa brindle bulldog standing
beside the sleeper, and as the police
man leaned forward to shake the man
the dog growled and showed his teeth.
Logan stepped back for fear of being
bitten. The drunlSard's name was
Collins.
"IIey, there!" said Logan. Collins
woke up.
"Tell your dog to let me arrest you. :"
Collins struggled to his feet, and said
to the dog: Come on, Bully, we're
rested"
The dog 'heeled" obediently, and the
policeman took them to the Thirtieth
street station-house. There was no
reason why the pup should be locked
up, but it was plain that he intended to
stick to his drunken master as long as
he could, and he was allowed to oc-
cupy the cell in which Collins spent the
night.
The dog accompanied Collins when
Logan took him down to jefferson Mar
ket police court, and was close to him
when Justice Hogan asked:
"Well. sir, what have you to say for
yourself?"
''Talls to him, Bully" whispered Col.
Inns to the pup; and the pup jumped
up on the bridge, where the justice
could see him, sat up, held up his fore
paws and whined.
Everybody in court was watching
him.
"Are we sorry?" Collins asked him.
The pup whined loudly and more for
lornly than before. He looked as if he
would cry in another minute.
"Well, young man." said the justice,
"I1l let you go this time on account of
your dog. don't think you deserve
such faithfulness as he has shown. If
1 were dog and had drunken mas
ter, l would leave him But l guess
dogs are more faithful than men,"
"Thank the Judge, Bully" said Col,
Inns.
The dog stood up on his hind legs,
gave one short, joyous yelp, and bound
ed out of the courtroom beside his mas
ter.

Benjamin j. Haywood, the Republican

His duties, however, have been in large

He has been an assistant, not the chief.
will become the head of the financial
bureau of the state Through his hands
will pass the moneys of the state.
In his possession will rest from day to
day the enormous balances that often
clog the treasury for months, even
years.
When Mr.. Haywood becomes state
treasurer-if he does-what does he in
tend to do with the public fund?
The Philadelphia Press only Il day or
two ago said that public funds are now
commonly believed to be "kept in favor
ed banks here and there in the state
which are doubtless paying interest to
somebody for them" If this interest is
paid and the state does not get tit
does not-some individuals must be law
lessly profiting from the taxpayers grind.
If this is the practice now, as COM
monty believed, does Mr.. Haywood, if
elected, mean to keep it up?
Mr.. Haywoods competitor, Mr.. Mey-
ers, has declared if he should be elected.
that every cent earned from the state 5
funds would go to the states credit and
into the states treasury.
But Mr.. Haywood keeps solcmnly ST
lent on this important point.
This is a subject on which Mr.. Hay
wood should be heard. VIII he make a
specific pledge to the people like that of
Mr.. Meyers, his opponent?
Will he cut off the favored bank list?
Will he put the state funds like any
sensible and prudent individual dcposi-
tor would, where the people will gain
the most profit therefrom as well as
have ample security?
