WHO HAVE DEPUTIES
Of Democratic Faith--Pie Should
Go to The Trough Of The Po-
litical Victors and Marshal
Bennett is Told to Hustle The
UnteIrifed From His Fold.

There's something doing in pol
itics today at the Cobb hotel. Pie
of the proper sort bas not been
piled on the lunch counter in sufii-
cient quantity to satisfy the vora-
cious appetites OF the gentlemen
politicians, and some.of those who
have been fortunate enough to OBJ
tain full meal of political pap
are being disciplined for not OBJ
serving The old rule Of ITO the vic
tors belong the Hpoils.'
Those members of the territorial
republican executive committee
who hail from the northern dis
trict are in session in the rarlors
of the Cobb hotel. w. H. Dar-
rough is presiding and, previous to
the meeting, the gentlemen dis
cussed and reported the political
condition of affairs in the several
districts. There was no necessity
for the formulation of ecabals or
compacts becaEse the republicans
are mighty harmonious set.
With but one or two exceptions,
however, they are mighty sore on
those office holders who refuse to
"turn the rascads out"
Most of the attack is 'oentered
upon Marshal Leo Bennett and
the resolutions already prepared
ready for adoption take the virtual
form of command that he sub
stitute republicans for the many
democrats be has retained as dep
uties. The committee are bscom-
ing weary Of requesting" him to
"tote square with the people who
put him where he is"
Another portion OF labor to fall
heavily upon the shoGlders of the
assembled gentlemen is the prep
aration Of slate OF third aod
fourth class poslmasters. Il is
generally understood that National
Committeeman Mellette will re-
spect, in making his recommends
tions for appointment, the wishes
of the several committeeman Mr..
MeEette did not attend the meet
ing having left this forenoon for
Muskogee.
Among the recommendations to
be made by the committee is an
endorsement of the candidacy of
John IL. Manis for appointment as
one Of the chaplains in the regular
army.
The committeeman present were

A HORSE AND A DOG.
Former Was Good MOurner, the Lat
ter Put Out Fires.

ter Fut Out AIes.
Speaking Of the queer antics Of
animals" said an old friend Of the
New Orleans fire laddies to a New
Orleans Times-Democrat writer, Il
recall the story of the faithful old
black horse Niger, who played
such a conspicuous part in the his
tory Of the volunteer fire department
in this city, and another case Of a
faithful dog in another city that
never missed going to fire. Niger,
sleek, black, pretty animal, whowas
really part Of the old volunteer fire
department in New Orleans, was a
remarkable horse, and l remember
well her strange devotion to the gall
liant band of fire fighters who protect
ed the city from blazes before the
present department was organized.
There was one thing particularly that
causes me to think Of Niger. She
never missed funeral when any
member of the department died, and
she always insisted on wearing the
honor of first mourner. She would
take her position up next to the
hearse, and would lead the solemn
cortege to the cemetery, and really
she seemed to feel the solemn situa-
ton as deeply as other mourners.
The other case was that Of dog,
and from the time she was old enough
to 90 to fire until she died she never
failed to respond to an alarm. She
lived her life in another city. She
would bound out with the fremen,
and frequently she would beat them
to the scene of the fire. She would
fight an incipient blaze with as much
vigor as the fremen. The men were
foolish about the dog, and they gave
her credit for having put out many
small blazes. where the fire origi-
mated in rags, or straw. But she
went to one fire too many. The fire
was in a two-story building, and the
faithful dog had scampered up the
ladder and disappeared through one
Of the windows. The building WIS
filled with smoke. The fire had been
smoldering in the basement, and Wa;
web under way, The fremen were
driven out finally by the flames. They
missed the dog, and made every effort
in the world to locate the faithful
creature, but to no avail. She wa.
burned to death in the building, anC
if the fremen had lost a man in thu
blaze it is not likely that they would
have felt worse than they did in los
ing the faithful four-legged mem

hungry, so as he passed in front Of
one of the eating houses for colored
people, of which there are several in
the neighborhood of the Plant sys-

bles in the windows offered too great
a temptation to be resisted. He en-

RARE spEcIMRN.
Prank Mark Twain Played when . Boy
on His Father.

mark Twain's" fatherwas an orni-
biologist. He had several friends who
we're also enthusiasts on the subject
of birds. Whenever any one of them
discovered a rara avis it was the Gus
tom to have a consultation. Mark had
been a witness Of several of these bird
inunests and had noted the delight
the old men took in discussing new
found specimen. One day, says the
New York Times, it occurred to him
TO provide the Hannibal Ornitholo-
gists with real circus in the form
of o bird. He killed a crow and also
a barnyard rooster. Plucking out the
tail feathers cf both the crow and the
rooster. he substituted the ROSTERS
tail feathers for those of the crow,
producing a unique effect. When he
had the specimen nicely prepared he
went 10 his father, and, handing it to
him, said:
~Here, father, is very curious bird
/ shot / thought it would be inter
ested in it."
The old gentleman gazed upon the
specimen with establishment That
evening the ornithologists of Hanni-
bal pene assembled in Mr.. Clemens
parlor- The rare specimen was put
before them. The discussion was
learned and long The opinions ex-
pressed were various. One thought
the bird was an offshcot Of the bird
of paradise family; Others had equally
ridiculous notions as to its ancestry.
But there was one who refused to be
swe1yed by the popularity Of the
bild's tai from the judgment that it
Wa- o. he crow family.
Why, just lock here" he said, lift
ing the bird by its tail feathers. He
got NO further, The feathers came
OUT There was a quick closing CT q
door Mr. Clemens started to leave

cuse me a few moments. l will SCI
