MR.. vAUx WANTS IT STRUCK OUT.
WHAT SHE WANTED.
How a Hotel Clerk Was Puzzled and a
Newspaper Man Exposed.

A party of foreigners, only one of whom had
any acquaintance with the English language
were staying at an uptown hotel last week.
One night while everything about the house
was quiet, the bell from the room which the
foreigners occupied gave one long and furious
ring. making the large annunciator fairly
tremblo. Before the clerk had time to collec,
his senses energetic bell boy had
responded to the call, supposing that the per.
son who rang the bell merely wanted pitcher
OF water. In short time the bell boy returned
to the counter with an alarmed and mvstified
expression. When asked if he had answered
the call the boy replied: Yes, bu. deed don't
know what she wants, for didn't understand
such talkln." While this coEycrsa ion was
going on the same bell rang ayaln. but with
more force than at the first time The
clerk sent two boys up to the room this time
This, however, proved irultless. for both
boys returned to the counter with the same
message that the first boy had brought down.
By this time the clerk was greatly worked up
and he really did not know what to do. First
1t entered has mind that the fair lady was ill
and that she wanted immediate medical atten-
ton to relieve her of her sufferings Finally
he appealed to enc of the guests of the hotel
who called forusslStance upon his wife, who
could read Spanish. The clerk sent piece of
paper and pencil upstairs to the almost fran
tic foreigner and instructed the bell boy to
make signs 20 her to write on the
paper what she wanted. She did so,
and the precious piece of paper was
returned to the counter. where it was
delivered to tn gentlcman'S wife to be trans
lated. The lady smiled as she read the con-
It uts OF the note to herself. Gently she ex-
planned that the note stated that the writer
wanted ''bcer." The clerk Immediately sent
to The foreign lady il cold bottle of beer. which
apparently soothcd her, az no more was heard
from her that night A few minutes after the
beer had been sent upstairs 4 we!!-known news
paper man happened to drop IL the hotel The
Clerk, who though, he would test the quill-driv-
er's knowledge OF Spanish. produced the piece
OF paper on which were written the mysterious
words. and innocently asked him if he could
interpret it. The newspaper man examined the
writing carefully and finally said, OH she
vans some writing paper; anybody who under
stands spanish could tell you that" The
CLERK, vino by this time was cooled Off could
not help admiriag the newspaper mans
nerve" Finally he informed the scribe that
the word had been translated and that il
meant beer and not writing paper" Both
joined Ill a good laugh. and as the newspaper
man was leaving the hotel, he admitted TO the
clerk that the joke and the beer was on him.
