home yesterday afternoon from his re-
cent trip to Alabama, was handed al
advertisement Of keno room, on the

One Of the Heavy Weights.

A stranger with no guile in his face
and no overcoat on his shoulders, wan
dered into clothing store in Newport
the other day, and asked if he could
be fitted with spring 0vercoat. The
proprietor promptly answered in the
affirmative. "You speak very posi-
tively,"-replied the stranger. 81 am
bigger than you take me for.n The
storekeeper was still confident that he
had coats that he was sure wonld an
swer. ~ am pretty heavy man."
said the stranger. II will bet you
Ave dollars that you can't guess my
weight into one hundred pounds"
The man was not particularly large,
and this astounding challenge entirely
diverted the seller of clothing from
the usual course Of his business. He
took the wager, named his guess
about a hundred and sixty pounds
the money was put up in the hands Of
third party, and all started off for a
pair of scales, and the stranger bal
anced two hundred and ninety pounds
of weights. The storema looked sad
and puzzled. With sm lie that was
childlike and bland the stranger took
his money and walked off without
saying anything more about the over
coat. It has since been learned that
this man wears a lead jack It, and ha,
been making an honest living by play
