A Horse TRADE. Yesterday an .indi.
vidual slightly "how-come-you-so " was
anxious to swap horses with one of our
job wagon men, who was also anxious
to make the trade as the other indi-
viduals horse was the best OF the two.
They haggled for some time in regard to
the difference; the job wagon man want
ing to trade even, the other wishing ten
dollars to boot. at last the inebriated
one proposed that dice should be shaken
whether he should be paid ten dollars or
nothing. 1t was done, the job wagon
man winning, the trade accordingly
made, and the inebriated one is studying
yet what the wagon man put up against
the ten dollars that he demanded for the
exchange.
