The Republican Convention al
Chicago.

Such ascendency of a national ad-
ministration over party has never had
an equal in political convention of
any political organization. The near
est approach to it was that of the
Philadelphia convention, four years
ago, but that was lifted out of the
ordinary by the revolt of Quay and
Plat against the domination of Hanna
and the substitution by the conven-
ton of Roosevelt for the choice of the
administration. Everywhere during
the five days in which the Chicago
convention and its delegates occupied
the foreground of public attention this
complete domination by the admins
tration-created machine obtruded
itself. There was no thought of origi-
mating anything wifbJut the approval
of Senators who by tacit consent
represented the administration; in
fact, it was conceded that all plans,
all action, must come from Washing
ton, not from the delegates assembled
in Chicago. The master was recog-
nized, and loyalty to the party was
simply servility to those who arrogated
to themselves the party CONTROL

The minister went away with pale

had TO make a trip to the store for
some turpentine. Upon his return he
found that a change had come over the
face of the heath, or at least Ger that
portion of it SPECIFIED in his warranty
deed. The tramp whom he had scared
away had not been satisfied TO leave
things thus. He had sought the as
sistance of three other tramps, and
when Mr. BOwser's back was turned
the four had painted the stone dog a
jet black and prOpped him up against
the front steps, and then one of them
had fashioned a rude sign which read:

Mr.. BowseP laid down his brushes
and led the way, and the stranger fol-
lowed him. He had an idea that there
was more statuary back there to be
identified, and he failed to note the
signs of an approaching cyclone. When
the back yard was reached, Mr. Bow
ser extended his hand and grasped the
man by the collar and said:
"Now, then, l have heard enough

But Mr.. BOwser's ears began to work,
and the man moved on down to the
corner and there met a woman and
somewhat plaintively inquired of her:

the stone bear in the yard?'

"Ah, l see. Many thanks. As the

Mr.. BOwser had given the dog a
white tail, white ears and red mouth
and was standing back to gaze on his
work when a quietly dressed and quiet

Dowser got into his old clothes and
rummaged around for paints. In the
course of an hour he was ready to be-
gin on the dog. The idea was to imi-
tate the colors of the living animal as
far as possible, and he therefore had
four or five kinds of paint He had
scarcely begun to clean off the statuary
when a tramp came along and leaned
on the fence to observe:
what breed of dorg do you call that,
old MANI
"Are you addressing me?' demand
ed Mr.. Bowser as he looked up.
Il wasn't addressin' nobody else. 1t
looks to me as if the man who made
that dorg had goat before him"
Mr.. Bowser dropped his tools and
went over to the fence, and, shaking
his finger within six inches of the
tramp's red nose, he made an address
lasting five minutes. His words were
not loud, but intense, and he was still
speaking when the man swallowed the
lump in his throat, got a brace on his
wabbling knees and started off. He
didn't stop until he was two blocks
away, and then he wiped the perspira-
ton from his brow and muttered to
himself:
"By George, but if they don't chain
that old chap up he'll do murder yet"
Half an hour later, as Mr.. Bowser
was putting black and white spots on
a portion of the dog, a butcher came
along and paused to look. He couldn't
be satisfied with looking, but pres
emily blurted out:
'If you were foolish enough to buy
that thing for a sheep you have been
taken in and done for"
as it your business whether it is
a sheep or a calfT exclaimed Mr..
Bowser
'No, of course not, but l hate to
see a soft headed man taken advan-
tage of. If l were you I'd take the

Mr. Bowser went over to him. His
words could not have been heard
thirty feet away, and his gestures
were no stronger than Hamlet's, but
as the butcher listened he began to
turn pale and beads of moisture to
start out on his forehead. AS soon as
he could get a move on him he got
away, and an umbrella member on the
other side of the street shook his head
most solemnly and said to himself:
THAT baldheaded man inside the
fence don't weigh over half ton but
I'll bet my last PUNK he's holy terror
on wheels"
The third man came along at lei
surely pace with benign look on his
face, and his motive was utterly un-
selfish as he stopped for awhile to re-
mark:
"My friend, if you are seeking to
initiate nature you are making a mis-
take in getting so much white on. In
fact, l don't think there should be any
at all"
"What do you know about it," curt
ly replied the painter as he paused in
his work
