Mistaken Identity.

During the recent campaign. Hon. r..
W. Davis, while making his rounds and
delivering the b1st speeches Of the cam
paign, happened one night AZ Sanford
for supper, and, while there, by another
of the many cases Of mistaken identity,
he got the best supper the hotel could
put up. 1t happened in this way:
MIR. Davis happened to have on at the
time a long black coat and n white cravat
which, with his clean shaven face. gave
him a very ministerial look While being
a very good man, he IS a lawyer and con-
sequently not a member of the cloth.
The waiter who looked after his wants
was good Irish Catholic, and readily
fell into the mistake of thinking Mr..
Davis a priest. and it was Father. will
you have this:" or Father, will Won
have that" and he ransacked the
kitchen in his endeavoIs to provide his
guest with a good meal. Mr.. Davis
good-naturediy humored the joke, as be
was reaping a substantial profit from the
Irishman's mistake, and now rel,res the
circumstances as one of the most pleasant
affairs of the campsiEu.
