Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1895-02-28

as 'sgoggle eyes, came near losing
what little life he had, from the ap-
pearance in his culinary department of
troop of dogs belonging to the club
members. Such wrestling of pots
and pans and such scraping oyer scraps
never was known before. 1t took the
club cook and the inside wicket keeper
a half hour, with the assistance of the
Central club to disperse and drive out
the intruders. There was such a smell
of dog singed hair, scalded dog meat,
favored with dog bark and profanity
of several languages that whole tee
pee OF Indian squaws and papooses,
that were camped about quarter of
mile away recognizing the appetizing
aroma as that which comes from thei
patent dog boullion, made rush to the
club house. The cub cook tried to shut
the door but was to late and the club
members were deprived of their feast
the noble red man eating everything in
sight. This episode is chronicled on
the minutes Of the meeting. In their
efforts to arrange matters so that the
club members could gather up the frag-
ments for doleful supper the mem
bers gave. Scotia Nova accidently
touched the button on the mind reading
and photographic chant which broke
loose and sung:
II would not be walker, I'd rather
lead the Van.
[ always wanted Office and 80 1 always
ran.
1 would always say it does not pay.
But when it comes election day,
By Jock, always get there If I can"
This broke the meeting up so I went
home.
(From another correspondent
The mon grae the Orkney Isles,
where the bag pipes sprout, is early
and often seen in the land and says it
takes better engineer to keep the
pilot of the Mennonite thumper in
good profanity running order than to
do the rest of the work.
Santa Claus headquarters is having
a large sign painted by Prof. Pelletier,
of the metropolis, on which the rose
and the thistle will be displayed in low

but ''out of sight,"
Your correspondent now goes pre-
pared for any emergency. Having had
the wood shed of his pants half-soled
with COW hide, with the hair on, and
the interior we'll lined with the very
softest kind of down, as there is one,
only one weary mortal, who says he
will make that correspondent wish he
had democratic badge. I've got it.
The tall pine with the sorrel upper
cut thinks he is strictly in line, but
says he will have to borrow the one
legged turkey to make himself indes-
pensible to certain young lady, who's |
youthful charms starts the cockleburrs
around what he calls his heart a
churning. The woman hater says that |
after he gets the turkey it will turn to
crow.
Recently at Huntingdon Lodge there
was a regular ''Bally-Knock-Nilly,"
kind of time, brought about by Eng

home rule. England is now engaged
in bringing back his mouth, which
somehow got on his neck while the re-
of home rule says that
