Running a newspaper is just like
running a hotel, only different When
a man goes into hotel and finds
something that does not suit him he
does not get up and raise hades with
the proprietor and tell him to stop his
darnod old hotel. Well, hardly. He
sets that dish TO one side. and wades
into some of the many dishes that do
suit him. 1t is different with some
newspaper readers. They find an ar
ticle occasionally that does not suit
them exactly and, without stopping to
think that it may please hundreds of
other readers, make q grand stand
display of their supreme asininity and
hasten over to stop their paper

lights. the piano and the beer formed
a combination that Granny could not
resist. and she became a slave TO the
LIQUOR habit and a loose character gen.
orally. So her owner decided TO send
her to Saloon Keeper Thomas for the
purpose of breaking her Of her bad
habits and TO be kept away from evil
influences.
Granny was tied in a shed back of the
saloon and II was not long until wee
bit Of a colt was born to her. The odd
little beast was christened Shaggy. 1t
grew rapidly, and one day it walked
into the saloon and stuck its nose up to
the bar. The bartender offered Shaggy
a glass Of beer and she greedily drank
the beverage from the glass as the bar
tender held II to her mouth. That
turned her head, and now she can safe
" be termed an incorrigible, without a
protest from a broken-hearted mother,
for Granny seems 10 glory in the un-
usual action Of her daughter.
II was noticed that when Shaggy re-
turned TO her mother after drinking
her fl Of beer that the kind parent
licked the foam off her daughters lips.
All sorts Of pranks were played on
Shaggy by the men who gathered in
the saloon, by doping" the beer, and
she was teased and torRented until she
became like spoiled child"
She was taught 10 take a small bucket
of beer in her teeth and carry it out TO
Granny, but she would not carry il un-
til she had been given all she wanted.
She was a good drawing card for the
saloon. for men bought beer just for
the purpose Of seeing the little donkey
drink it.
One day Shaggy, while very drunk,
dropped the pail Of beer she was carry
ing to her mother and the beer was
spilled. Granny, on seeing the acci-
dent. brayed loudly. and her wall must
have meant something awful in donkey
language. Shaggy resented the insult,
OF whatever it was, and started in TO
chastise her mother.
Granny had witnessed too many
troubles in the dance halls Of Cripple
Creek TO allow herself to be bested.
Shaggy had only fairly started on the
lob she had undertaken when she fell
unconscious from a right-and-left up
percut from her mothers heels. Shag-
~ was prefectly sober when she came
TO her senses and she has not dropped
the pail of beer since.
Every day-except Sunday. of course
Shaggy drinks all the beer she wants,
and can be seen rushing the growler for
her ma. Mr.. Thomas says II is no use
IN trying 20 reform Granny, and insists
that Shaggy inherited her taste for
LIQUOR. Drunkard or no drunkard.
however, Shaggy has many friends in
West Denver, but children are not al
lowed to associate with her on account
of her habits.

some little incident in which that
love had manifested Itself, says the
Louisville Courier-Journal. Then the
captain spoke:

DONKEY LIKES BEER.
A Sad Case of What Seems to Be
Inherited Inebriety.
Shaggy Not only Gets Drunk Herself,
But Rushes the GrOwler for Her
MOthcr-Stays sober on
Sundays Only.

According to the Denver Evening
Post. Shaggy is the prettiest little dom
key that ever came to life in West Den
yer. She IS so "cute" that the women
never pass her without making some
remark complimentary to the little
animal.
Shaggy is the property of a. Z. Thom-
as, who conducts a saloon at Ninth
street and Santa Fe avenue. and how
the saloon man.came to own her is this
way: The man had a friend who was a
miner and owned Granny, the mother
OF Shaggy. Granny was a pack donkey
and "a good one, too. before she got
touch of city life. She would carry her
masters tools, bedding. provisions and
anything that could be piled IN her
back, up the long. steep mountain to
where the owner had a prospect. She
never kicked or grumbled about her
labor. and was perfectly contented with
her duties and an opportunity 10 eat
pine bark and snow TO sustain life and
strength. The owner Of Granny went
TO Cripple Creek, and of course the dom.
key went along. lie was successful in
striking a pocket" and from the pro-
ceods lined his pockets with good hard
coin. lie got his money for the sole
purpose, he said, of spending It, so the
Inmates of the dance halls showed him
the way. He always took Granny with
him 10 the dance halls so he could ride
her back TO his cabin after he had con-
sumed all the beer he could hold
One night, just for fun, some of the
men around the dance hall poured
enough beer down Granny's throat to
get her about half seas over" Then
she reeled into the dance hall like
drunken man and brayed at the noisy
piano. From that time on Granny
was worthless as a pack animal. When
the pack was placed on her back and
she was started up the hill Granny
bucked it off and ran as fast as she
could for a dance hall. The electric
