them, while the foreign holders ere ex-

metallic substance in the shape Of a
quarter, which he found in his boots.
"Here is a quarter, sir; and will take
o little whisky. We use most excellent
whisky in Chicago, and we only pay one
dime q drink for it. Really, sir, you
should introduce the Chicago trade out
here in this a%bominably expensive

The bar-keeper set out tho whisky
bottle aud q tumbler, and the Chicago
trader proceeded TO help himself to a
"horu" which filled the whole tumbler.
He then asked the bar.keeper to lend
him another glass, which that function
airy accordingly did, and the stranger
from Chicago poured half the contents
Of his glass into it-even msasure-and
then turning to the door Of the bar
room, he beckoned 10 his next friend,
whom he called Jacob, asked him to
take a drink the very thing which
Jacob was anticipating, and accordingly
approached the bar, with anxious appe-
tite, and just as he was about grasping
the coveted glass, the %bar-kesper
{. smelt q good sized rat" and taking
hold of the tumbler hO Sc. it under the
counter, at the same time taking the
other glass also he poured its contents on
the aooriu front OF the bar, and, pushing
the two bits back to the owner, sternly
and most emphatisally told his new
customer to /" git-we don't want none
OF your Chicago trade here ~ The
above is an incident which positively
took place at Elko only a few days ago,
when the Eastern train Of cars arrived.
