Ethat the dog was the property Of an
actress who in her haste to catch a
train had got aboard and forgotten

town and he always rode on the seat
beside him. The only time he ever
wagged his tail was when Hapgood
was talking politics with Cap Hem
perly.
'At the convention when Josh was
nominated there was big fuss, and
home swearing they would bolt the
ticket. The trouble was that they
didn't get all the plums they figured
out for themselves and the way in
which they acted made the situation
look rather. bad fer the men on the
ticket, for the Brookville gang could
command enough votes to make it
warm working for any politician, no
matter how strong.
Josh was rather slow looking up

votes, and his electioneering was con-
fined to several neighbers who would
have voted for him anyhow, while the
other candidates were doing the best
they knew how to heal over the sore
spot in Brookville. Free beer and
scores of promises could do great
deal, and soon the enmity of the Brook
villeites was confined to one man, Josh
Hapgood, who had not so much as
furnished them single drink.
Josh did have some cards printed
announcing himself as a candidate. These
he kept in the barn, save a few which he
carried in his vest pocket for rfeara his
wife might haul him over the Goals for
Squandering his money. But what queered
him was the fact that those cards began
disappearing, and soon one box of 500 was
empty. He didn't dare to say anything
about robbers, for that would have given
the whole matter away to his wife, $50.

in the presence of no one but the bulldog.
The next morning when he looked there

well that night Josh heard from his
cards, and in such an exciting manner
that his hairs were turned grayer by a
few shades than they were before. Josh

when he heard them taking out the VEN
geance on the Smokel1ouSe he got down on
his knees After a little while, when they
thought they had him good and scared
the leaders Of the mob Quoted their men
and yelled to Josh to snow himself.

asked, What do the gentlemen want?

gang. I should say not. Hang the miser;

tnoYThen they quoted down again, and the
committee conferred with Josh. He tod
them how his cards had been disappear
,.ingI all the while, and that he had not
put out a single one in BrooEville, nor dfa
lcrowd heard the story they called Josh
liar. and said that If he didn't make
good with them they'd string him up to a
pear tree in the yard. Give 'em twenty
five and they'll let you alone whispered
one of the committee to Josh, to whom
the suggestion was a great relief. So the
committee gave him ten minutes to go
they got the twenty-five they left him off
with the promise that he would do better
by them in the future.
After the trouble of that night Josh
was determined to solve the mystery Of
the cards, and he went over to Cap Hem

their heads over the matter when up came

Said Col. Mulberry. recalling some
of his political experiences the other
day "There's a score of different ways
of getting to congress, and you don't
have to always be hangin' on the coat
tails of them bosses, the chairman and
their committees. There's certain
forces the bosses can't control, and a
great deal depends upon who's boostin'
you. The strangest case of whippin'
them in line 1 ever witnessed was that
of bulldog who lifted Josh Hap
good from his position of road super
visor in Shilling county, which he had
held for fifteen years straight, into a
soft seat in congress, and all that in
the face of the opposition of the ia
NOUS Brookville gang. The Brookville
crowd under the leadership of Big
Pete Bowers, was none of your shootin'
crews and were not noted particularly
for any prominently bad features save
that of bulldozing candidates into
keepin' them in drinks and of showing
into office men who would keep them
in supplies during all the year round.
1 don't suppose one of them carried a
gun, and if they did they did not know
how to use it.
1T all came through the workings
of that bulldog, and Hapgood cannot
give the least bit of credit to any one
else but that creature, who joined him
self to him under very peculiar cir
cumstances. The road supervisor was

If experiments now in progress in
Washington, under the auspices Of Off
GERS of the treasury department, fulfill
the promise of their present stage, the
reign of the "crisp $10-bill BILL" or any
other crisp bill so dear to the heart Of
the police reporter, has almost reached
its end. Money turned out by the bu-
reau of engraving and printing will be
of a soft and velVety texture AS these
experiments are nearly complete, the pre-
dictions concerning the outcome Of the
application of the new method of treating
paper are all optimistic In the extreme,
and they point to revolution in the
manufacture of paper money.
E. H. Fowler, chief draughtsman Of the
coast and geodetic survey, and d. N.
Hoover. chief printer of the same bureau,
are the men to whom the discovery OF the
new process is to be credited. By util-
izing the chemical compound upon which
they have been at work for five years 1t
will be possible to have bank note ready
for circulation in sixty days less time
than was required under the old method.
This is regarded as very important in
ity, when oftentimes, the demand for
new money is urgent. Heretofore in or
der to meet such demands, most careful
planning has been necessary.
Besides rendering paper soft and vel
vety the new process also makes it nom

So right before their noses the problem
was solved. and Josh. was so mad at the
dog that he wanted to go home and kill
him right away, but Cap who was super
stitious, advised him differently. You
let that dog alone, said Cap. You can't
tell but what he may do you some good
Josh lay for the dog on the following
night and saw him take the cards from
the box and start across the fields. He
must have felt ashamed of himself to
think that bulldog had more get-up about
him than he had himself.
1.-The Brookvilleites had treated Josh so
roughly that his wife feared to let him
not show up they became dead set against
: him. Josh got very much down in the
mouth as the election day approached
and he had given up all hopes of becom-
ing a member of congress. All his cards
had been carried away without having

knew, while the fellow opposing him had
agreed to pay for all the fun the Brook

rather than do so they agreed to stay at

of the rumpites, and he and his followers
were just beginning their carousal on the
p morning of the election day in the only
saloon in Brookville, when Josh Hap
goods bulldog walked in and looked
around bit, just as though he was
counting the men to see whether they
were all there.
- That cussed dog looks as though he
was mad said Pete Bowers.
He's just loafing around looking for
fresh bone was the reply of some one
