"Hilloa, Bill You are just the man wan
to See said bartender in one of our trst
class saloons to a gentleman who had just
made his morning call.
What's up?' asked Bill.
Whats up? Why, you would think there
was something up if you had been in here
about five minutes ago. Why, there was a
man IN here who said that you owned your
tailor and shoemaker, and you was one of
those fellows who always dress so well, and
never pay for what you get. Not only that,
but you cheated the woman you used to board
with out of two months board, and your
washerwoman is looking for you for the last
three weeks to try and get you to settle. Why,
had to put him out Of here, for know you
are not that kind of man
That will do said the exasperated Bill L;
| who is that fellow; What's his name
Where can he be POUNDS?
HIS name is Tom Collins, atld he said he
would go down to the st. Nicholas and tell
the bartender, for he holds grudge against
you
Off starts Bill for the St. Nicholas, but as
the bar tender was well acquainted with him,
he informed him that Tom Collins was only
mythical person, and that the other bar
tender was playing joke on him.
Never mind said Bill; i will get even
with him yet
About five o'clock in the afternoon. Bill
made his way back to the former place which
happened to be filled with gentlemen whom the
bartender had informed about his joke on
Bill. ..
Up walks Bill to the bar, and called for the
best brandy, at the same time asking all up
to take smile with him.
After they had imbibed, ke called for the
best cigars; then lighting up, he turned to
the bartender and said:
You know Tom Collins, don't you?'
oh, yes said the bartender, expecting to
hear what tramp Bill hap looking for him.
Well will tell you. As you know him
and don't, you may charge these drinks and
cigars to his account said Bill, as he made
his exit from the place
| If you want to see very peculiar smile on
that bartender's face, just ask him if he knows
Tom Collins!
