Fifty-Five Extra Clerks in Tax Department Add to Ex

and most effective arguments of his

Sheriff Word accomplished during
those four months the same amount of
work. Taxes were oollected by the reg

the assistanoe of only a few extra em

POLICE DOGS AT WORK.
A Casual Encounter of Dona and
Kogl on Duty tn Brooklyn.
From the New York Bun.
A night worker on his way home tn
the Prospect Park section of Brooklyn
at an early morning hour recently saw
n dog with a Jingling tag fastened to Its
neck oome running along the opposite
side 'of the street. The dog ran up to
the front door of a house, sniffed and
was down off the porch and around to
tha roar Ilka., a f lanh.
Judging from 'the usual conduct of
dogs the nrsi tnougnt was mac mis
one was either Hearchlog for its home
or looking hungrily for a stray bone.
At the next bouse the same perfor-
ance was repeated wttn equal inorougn
ness. A little further down the street
o man swung the gate open and entered
the yard at about the time the dog ar
. rived. The dog followed him up the
steps, waited until he took out, his key
and let himself in. then, satisfied went
on about his business.
The man, who had forgotten Just at
the moment that the policing of the city
Is now being done by improved methods,
was at a loss to account for the dog's
performance being repeated at every
house until -he saw the animal run out
Into the middle of the street and sniff
at a;' dark object lying there. The dog
circled around the object several times
and then darted off at top speed.
In a short time it returned, followed
by another dog. Not far behind the sec
ond animal was a policeman who had
been trying: to keep pace with the dog.
Under the policeman's prodding the ob
ject moved and proved to be. a man who
?ot MP and walked off uncertainly down
he street'
Then the dog that had brought assist
ance to the intoxicated man ran on In
one direction and the policeman and the

months has oost Multnomah county 110.

under Word s administration two years
ago.
Sheriff Word at that time had 68
regular clerks to do the work. During
the heaviest part of the, tax collecting
period he employed, but 18 additional
clerks, who put In all or part of their
time.
Used to Offset Stevens' Claim.
The facts an if f Irures relative to the
two administrations are being used ef
fectively by word s aanerents to onset
the argument advanced by Sheriff Stev
ens and his supporters that during the
past two years the sheriffs office has
been conduoted as economically, and
on as strict business oasis as it was
durinar Word's retrlme.
With only four months of the present
year gone, and the expenses of the sher
iffs office nearly $o,000 in excess of
the sum found necessary to expend In
the same period of 1908 for the same
purpose. Word's argument of more econ
omy and better business principles In
the sheriff's office has been given a
lorcioie impetus.
WOMAN IS MARSHAL.
She Carries a Gun and Knows How
to Use It.
From the Kansas City Times.
Beulah Reynolds, "deputy United
States marshal for the eastern district
of Oklahoma. That Is the way It reads
on the payroll, and the petite, handsome
girl that answers to the hame is a
real deputy marshal with authority to
carry a she shooter, a privilege which
she uses, serving under Grant Victor,

Miss Reynelds was born In Randolph
county, Missouri, and educated at Lex
ington, Mo. She was born In Oklahoma
City at the ODenlnr of Oklahoma. She
regards her aDnointment under Victor
as a political matter. She was taken
on as a stenographer, but when she
went In she Insisted, on taklna- tha ume
oath that any other deputy marshal
takes, and she also Is subject to the
same rules and duties. So far as known
she Is tha . only woman actually in
service as a deputy United States mar
shal. She has authority . to make ar
rests, raids, serve papers and sven go
into the field on special duty.
When she took the oath of office Minn
Reynolds was asked If she would go out
and make an arrest if It were required
and If she would take part In a real
fight. If It came to a "show down":
and it was pointed out to her Just what
duties . are sometimes ' required of a
deputy marshal in tight places. Her
reply was short and to the point:
I will take the oath, and I am not a
quitter."
The next morning when tha marshal
came down he found lying on the desk
of his new deputy a pearl handled six
shooter of excellent make, handsomely
engraved and every chamber loaded. He
was Informed that it shot pretty well
and that it was a better gun -than it

Rawhide's Growth and Min
eral Richness Described
by Discoverer.
C B. Holman, the man who discov
ered Rawhide, Nevada, and gave the
mining camp its name is In Portland
on his way to visit .old mining friends
at Medicine Hat. Canada.
Mr. Holman says Rawhide is tha
?:reatest mining camp in the world and
hat It is booming now as it never has
before. Starting barely a year ago witit
one tent, the bUBtling young mushroom
city has now a population of upward of
13,000, according to Mr. Holman, and he
shows pictures of the ramp that go far
to bear out this assertion.
"You can say for me," said Mr. Hol
man to a Journal reporter, "that there
is absolutely no foundation to the
story that the mines in this section
have been salted to create a false boom,
Samples Dioked Indiscriminately from
my own properties In Rawhide havo
assayed fig.uuv to tne ton, ana one
sack of ore which I selected of picked
samples went as high as $80,000.
"The ore must yield $300 to make the
mines down there pay, and every one
is shipping as fast as the present lim
ited faculties win allow, uoes mis
look like the mines were salted?
"We are building a 40-mile spur road
from Schrdz, on the Bullfrog & Tono
pah railroad, and when the line is
completed I expect the ore shipments
will startle the world by their rich
ness.
"Twenty-five new mines have opened
ud in the past few months and hoists
and other developing machinery aro
being installed as racmiy as it lsvpos
stble to bring the machinery in. The
difficulty In bringing in machinery Is
our main handicap at present, but this
will be overcome with tne advent of the
railroad.
"Bueane Orutt. a well known Oregon
miner, deserves the credit for bring
ing out tne camp. Aitnougn i discov

capital to venture there. Mr. Grutt Is
the manager and chief owner of the
Grutt Hill mine, one of the richest

they have lost the trle.k of curing or

However It is, I'd give a good-deal

in the low-ceillnged farmhouse kitchen

After being trimmed appropriately they
were taken to a small outbuilding which
contained nothing but a huge brick

hung up In the kitchen.
