JACKIES OFFER A REWARD

Pete, the famous Roosevelt bulldog
that chased Ambassador Jusserand out
of the White House grounds, made the
'~er dignified George Bruce Cortelyou
climb tree, tore Jimmie Garfield S
pants. bit "a policeman between
the porte-cochere and the executive of
flee and frightened countless private cit
liens into fits. is at large again. The
men of the presidential yacht Mayf1ow
er, which is being overhauled at the
! Brooklyn, navy yard. will pay suit
able reward for the return OF Pete. who
| is the ships mascot. A much larger re-
ward will be paid by various important
| personages. who do not care to have
their names mentioned at this time. for
| documentary or other convincing proof
that Pete has gone to his reward.
Clears Up Mystery.
The heart-broken appeal for the return
OF Pete or Spike. as he has been re-
christened. sent out by the men of the
Maytiower. clears up something of a mys-
terry. 1t will be recalled that during the
latter part of the Roosevelt sadministra-
tion Pete amused himself. when he
wasn't pursuing plenipotentiaries biting
of the CortelyOu pompadour by getting
lost. Whenever this happened business
would be suspended, gayeties would cease
and yeggmen. porch climbers and hall
way workers would emerge from their
holes for a breath of air, while whole
platoons of perspiring policemen devoted
themselves to comprehensive search.
The policemen were sincere and inde-
fatigable in their efforts. On one memo
rable occasion four of them-they seemed
to take more interest in the hunt when in
at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. At clock
another official searching party found the
policemen.
Four Cops in a Row.
They were sitting in a row on a high
fence. Pete was sitting on the ground
The four explained that they hadn't got
down because they were afraid II they did
Pete might run away and they'd lose him
again.
But at any rate Pete finally got lost, as
1T was supposed at the time. and never
did come back. 1t was believed he had
been run over by train or shot or some
thing like that and although it was a
great loss, most folks bore it with forth
tude.
Now, however, it comes out that Mrs
Roosevelt gave the dog to the crew OF the
Mayfiower. It wasn't long before Pete
became the ships champion swimmer.
and now he is entitled to medals for life
saving On two occasions he saved the
lives of men who fell overheard. One of
them-a coal passer named Finnegan-
Pete seized by the nose and held above
water until help came.
