HOW HE VOTED.

Character Who Had q Way for CIR
cumventing inspectors.
Citizens of the Second district of the
Fourth ward, says the Rochester IN.
w Democrat and Chronicle, are having
considerable fun with well-known
character of the vicinity who developed
a novel idea of the blanket ballot sys-
tenn of voting, on election day. For the
purposes of this narrative the char
acter may be called Tom. He was given
a ballot by the election officers, and re-
tired into one of the compartments to
make his little cross marks. After re-
manning in the booth for time Tom
emerged with a self-satisfed air, but
empty handed.
"Where's your ballot?" asked an elec-
ton officer.
"Oh, that's all right" replied Tom.
ST put it in there all right"
"You haven't voted yet; go back and
get your ballot"
"Yes, have; you can't fool me;
voted it in there; you can't get sight
at my vote.
After little more argument on the
same line an investigation was begnn,
which resulted in the discovery that
Tom hac. Carefully marked his ballot
to his own satisfaction, folded it up and
slipped it through crack III the back
of the booth. From there it had slipped
down into pile Of agricultural imple-
ments stored in the place, and it was
with no little labor and some difficulty
that it was "fished" out and returned to
the wpuld-be voter, who, much against
his will, was obliged to permit the in
spectors tn handle it before it was de-
nOeited in the box.

THE BULLDOG A GOOD DOG.
Yet We Do NOT Care to Take Lfber-
ties with One.

Tics "1tA ONCs
No member of the canine family has
been more persistently maigned than
the bulldog. Writers who have no inti-
mate knowledge Of the dog and his at
tributes have described him as stupidly
ferocious, and illustrators have pic
tured him as q sort of semi-wih beast,
til the general public has come to look
upon him as dangerous. says Outing:
.sGive q dog bad name," is an old
saw and perhaps true one, but when it
is applied to the bulldog, 1t is manifest
" unjust. Writers, too. have fallen into
grave error in claiming that the bull
dog is deficient not only in affection. but
in intelligence.
No greater proof OF the fa.sity of the
latter could be given than was wit
messed at the late Westminster Ken
mel clubs dog show, when Col. Shuts
exhibited his trained dogs, with the
bulldog Nick performing all sorts of
wonderful fea&s, especially that of
