all that he was prepared to say just
yet was that he considered it a COM

the matter.
The election of Professor Noble as

A FOUND DOG.
And the Trouble an Advertisement
 Brought to His Owner.

About a month ago a Republican re- porter kindly inserted a little squib about a lost dog. He did it out of pure kindness of heart, not knowing g to what desperate straits he would soon bring the owner of said dog. The animal was speedily forthcoming af- ter the publication of the article men, toned, and the owner has been asked by ten thousand people since, 'Did you find your dog?" or q see you found your dog; where did you find him? I saw in The Republican that he was lost" His mail began to grow to alarming proportions, caused by anxious friends in domestic and for eign parts asking that all-absorbing question, Did you find your dog?"
 In going to and from his business this man uses the alleys and back streets to escape the oft repeated ques- ton, but without avail, as the Chi nese yell at him, "You catchee um dog? Velly fine dog" It is hoped when this reaches the eye of the read ing public that it will breathe easier. and allow the owner of said dog to recover his habitual composure and pursue his avocation i'll peace and ouietude
