was introduced. He made witty speech, and
told number Of funny stories. He said the
president had asked him 20 act as kind OF
stop-gap. as il was seen that a number OF the
eminent statesmen were conspicuous by their

who werc 10 speak but l. get In their place and
Wobble around little. However have got the

thing like the hanging committee az lvnching
They hanged tho wrong man. But when they
got hold OF the Right man they made u oil right
by hanging him. and then the committee called
upon the widow OF the man who had been hanged
by mistake, and said sheePishly Well. madam,
