am getting the money out OF my pocket
book. Woman in front Of me has an UNI
brella under her arm. Hit the end % the
umbrella vicious blow with my eye. See
stars and other pyrotechnics.
Ticket agent says: "ShOve along, there"
The end OF the wOmans umbrella seems 10
be uniniured. Sykes, who has already got
his ticket. wants 70 know II l am going TO
stay there all day. Pain In my eye very in
tense Pc hsps l will lose the sight oil It,.
Sykes examines it. and consoles me by
saying that IL looks like the stopper OF an
old ink bottle. ] can't find my pOcket-book.
Sykes says ne told me 70 look ont for pick
pockets, and points 70 sign on the wa -
that effect. Sykes says 1t makes no df
ference, that be has plenty Of money. OF
course il makes 10 difference 10 him. He
bears up like a hero under the surerings |
undergo with my injured eye.

into tbs cars in Texas for transportation
As the COWS, heifers, yearlings and beef
steers 20 through the narrow gangway a
man punches each animal with a red-hos
branding iron. As the herd Of men. women
snd BOYS push themselves through the
door Of the ticket orice man stands there
with a punch. ne doesn't punch the
people. but be punches the tickets. AS
soon as the passengers emerge from the
corral with their punched tickets they ca
wort around and stampede for the ferry.
