STATE PAID SOAP BILL FOR
GOVERNOR SUFFERS PET DOG

Two bottles of hair tonic, $3.50.
Two dozen bottles malt extract,
with iron, $3.50.
The six cakes of dog soap were for
Patsy, Mr.. Suffers pet Irish terrier,
and the two dozen bottles of malt ex-
tract with iron were for the governor
himself. The malt extract was pur-
chased May 10. Just about the time
Mr.. Sulzer was bracing himself for
his fight with Boss Murphy. There
are toilet articles and a dog collar

ing Undying Sentiments Pasted
On the Side of House.
GENEVA.-For originality in
avenging oneself on a tickle sweet
heart the palm must be given to M
Musy, a gay youth about town, whose
reckless exploits have added much
color to the night life about the city
NJ. Musy was betrothed to the
beautiful Aimee Bourreaux, daugh-
ter of a wealthy merchant. The we'd
ding was to have taken place in just
one week But the fair Aimee had
heard of NJ. Musy's escapades. and
without further ado returned the en-
gagement ring with the curt state
ment that there would be no we'd
Ding, at least so far as herself and the
gay NJ. Musy was concerned.
Then the Tilted youth sat down to
figure out a plan of revenge. An
original idea occurred to him. He
got out all of the love missives he had
received from his former sweetheart,
selected the ones which contained the
WdTU16SL anu luOSb uhuJlhS oChIA
ments, got a few of his friends to-
gether and in the night went to the
home of the fair Aimee, the outer
walls of which they plastered with
the letters. The young men worked
all night, covering the walls from
ewes to foundation with the choicest
outpourings of the girls heart. In
the morning a crowd gathered and
the ribald jokes augmented the
throng. Finally the laughter and
jokes reused the Boudreaux house
hold. Papa Boudreaux came out to
see what the trouble was. He was
hailed with loud outlaws. The fair
Aimee came after him, took one
glance at the walls and fed into the
house in food of tears.
The police had to be summoned to
dispense the mob. Father Boudreaux
put in the day removing the letters,
while "big brother" with whip in
hand, went out in search of the Tilted
lover.
