song or dance a jig with any of the boys.
Now and then he takes his dogs and

Charley Wheaton divides the popu-
larity with his side partner Quinn. AS
far as telling stories are concerned, he
is not in it with Quinn, but he says he
can catch more suckers in an hour than
Quinn can in a day. Quinn acknowl-
edges the corn. Charley used to be an
express messenger before the late Dr..
Stewart discovered in the embryo doc
tor the making up Of a great physician,
and he tells of the hair-breadth escapes
he has had on his runs between st. Paul

E. p. BaSsford is by all odds the best
architect of st. Paul. The court house
is a splendid monument TO his skill and
ability. He is modest and unasSuming,
and bears his honOrS with the shyneSS
and mOdesty of a school girl. He spends
half his time in Matching practical jokes
and the other half in working them off
on his comrades. He told DIR. Quinn
confidently at liz time that he knew a
place on the lake where bass could be
taken as often as the line was let down.
He then accurately located the spot.
That night he found Quinn's hook and
rubbed it thoroughly with asafoetidie.
At 4 O'Clock the next morning Doc
HE'D himself to the spot in question, dis
tant about eight miles up the lake. At
Tin the evening he returned, tired and
sweaty, with not as much as a minnow.
Quinn hasn't spoken to Bassford since.

hangs out from April to October.
