! Discriminating Reporter.
jFrom the Denver Tribune.

4 Denver gentleman who has been visit
ing in the States thus speaks Of bis experiance:
While in St. Joseph we were introduced 10
a reporter of one OF the city papers, said to
be the oldest in the city. He took US cordial
" by the hand with the remark" how do
YOU do, MIR. L.? How do you do:"
After some little conversation we Invited
him to step in and imbibe.
Certainly, Captain, Ceartinly! Would
as soon drink with you as anybody
So we drank. Presently we asked him to
drink again.
Certainly, Major! never refuse to drink
with gentleman. Here's to you!"
A short pause and we repeated the invita-
ton for third time. The tears came in the
old man 8 eyes as he yraspcd our hand and
said:
.sColonel. you do me proud. Am glad l
met YOU Here's my regards.
We saw we were growing in his estimation,
so we presently remarked that he looked dry,
and asked him what he would take:
''Whiskey and sugar, General, whiskey
and sugar; it has been my steady diet for
twenty-five years. never take any other.
We concluded there was no chance for
further promotion, so we badc our old friend
eood-by, and as We left him we noticed that
he wore one boot, one canvassed back shoe,
no stockings, pair of linen pants. sustained
by one suspender, and shirt as unfamiliar
to the water as he was himself But he was
happy, and appreciated us, as was evident
from the following personal, which appeared
in the paper the next morning:
Major General l., of Denver, Col
RADIO, is getting outside of provisions at the
Pacific, un:il uncle Johnnie begins t" fear a
famine The General is q wbole-souled,
genial gentleman Christian and & scholar,
and we hope he will visit us often
DrESG leap year the girl who counts all
the cray horses she sees, until she bas got up
to a hundred, will be married within year,
to the first gentleman with whom she shakes
hands after counting the one hundredth horse.
Every girl in the city carries q memorandum
book, that she may be sure to keep correct
record One has already twenty-six, another
eleven, and another, who only began yester-
day, has seven. If somebody would bring
drove of q hundred gray horses to town today
what shaking of hands would take place TO-
morrow.
