A Bridgeport Druggist and HIS Ger-
 man Friend Surprise NIT. DOOner.
 Two well-dressed, gentlemanly looking men entered Dooner's Hotel yesterday, says the Philadelphia Press, and said they would like some dinner. One of the men was about five feet six inches in height and weighed proba- ply one hundred and fifty pounds. He said his name was Stevenson and that he was 8 druggist doing business in Bridgeport, Conn. The other man was evidently German He was tall, healthy looking fellow, sightlyin- clined to adiposity, but by no means could be called fat man.
 "I wish," said MT. Stevenson to Mir. Doo- ner, 'that you would see personally about the serving of our meal. We had 8 hearty breakfast six hours ago, but are very hungry now. Send me-" he continued very calmly,
 five pounds of cold roast beef, rare; let it
 be all solid meat, without bones or fat. Give
 me double order of peas, double order of
 corn, double order of potatoes and double order of macaroni."
 ''AI right" said MT. Dooner, smilingly, who thought his guests were joking; "but will you not have something to wash that meal down with?''
 'Yes,' replied the Bridgeport druggirt, ''it ! would be well. Let me have two bottles of Bass ale, and while you are giving the order send me another double order of whatever vegetables there are in the house, MT Stevenson sank back in his chair, and l his friend spoke. ''Send me-" said the Ger ! man gentleman, 1.-two large sirloin steaks I and duplicate the vegetables ordered by my friend. Instead of Bass ale give me 1 Younger's."
 1 ''Are you really serious?' asked the hote l proprietor.
 1 "Never was more serious in my ife," saic 1 Mr Stevenson. 'EPlease hurry up the order. ! MT. Dooner went to the kitchen and nearly 1 took the chefs breath away when he tolc what was wanted. Both orders were prompt 1 ly supplied, however, and in thirty-fve min utes after being placed on the table there wa
 not vestige left to tell the tale. MT. Stev
 enson very cheerfully paid seventy-five cent
