CALLING UP TRAVELLERS.
A Brace of Odd Experiences in Wester,
Village Towns.


Village Towns.
Every travelling man has had his ex.
perience with the intelligent bell boy
who calls for the early train.
Il was pounding my ear pretty live
ly one night in Texarkana hotel, "
said Texas man to a St Louis Globe
Democrat reporter, when a big
humping on my door brought me up
sitting in bed.
What is it?' I asked.
Boss. said the darby, SIS You de
man what wants to go on de two
o'clock train 10 Big Sandy?
Il had left no call and | made that
darky understand so in a few short
words. He tackled the next door, and
l heard him ask again:
Boss, is you de man what wants
to go on de two o'clock train to Big
Sandy?"
The answer was terrific. The
darby was awed. For about FIVE min
utes he was still, as if absorbed in
thought. Then l heard him saw to
himself in an argunentative tone:
Oars some 'un in dis hall who
wants to go on de two o'clock train to
Big Sandy. l dun forgot de number
He went down the line repeating
the performance at seven doors before
he reached the man who wanted 10 90
on de two o'clock train to Big
Sandy"
An Illinois man thought he could
parallel this evidence of sagacity. He
said:
L stopped one night in the hotel at
Shawneetown, and left sure CALI
for the boat which was expected along
about four a. N. | went to bed and
slept peacefully until the racket at
the door aroused me.
All right / said,
Mr.. Jones. Mr.. Jonesr sang out
the darky. You wanted to catch de
Padooky boat? Well, dey amt no use
o You getting up. De boats done
gone, Sah.'"

When Hunk Taylor was put on trial
at Strawberry Hill for killing Steve

it, and shall be disappointed if you
don't. But Iwant it understood that l

"What be them rights, prisoner ?"
queried Bill Totem, who was acting as
judge.
"Waal. want to be hung with new
rono. 1 was brought up respectfully
and l want to die that way. Then 1
want to wear a billed shirt. I was
brung up TO wear billed shirts, and |
don't want to disgrace the family. l
want to be shaved, to nave my hair
coined and parted in the middle, and l
insist Zeke Cooper lendin' me his new
butes. That's my rights and I shall
insist on 'em."

''uain't it putin this ere camp to q

II dunno, but we hev got to hev ono.
Do you s'pose I'm goiM' TO bring up in

"How arc you goin' to be shaved
when we hain't got no razors in campP
We kin furnish you some grease and q
comb, but thar can't be no Shawn"
Got to be-" replied Hank. II hain't
goin' over the divide lookin' like wolf
with his winter fur on. And as fur
grease, / want reg'lar bars lie. / am
bound to look just us purity rs l kin.
"Zeke, will YOU lend him your butes"
asked the Judge.

"That's SO. that's So" unused the
Judge. ain course it'll be known that
you cum from Strawberry Hill, and in
course we'll hev a pride in tittin' you
out in decent shape. The prisoner will
be removed while we hev q talk"
We had q talk. We couldn't get n

Hank had said, Steve Brown was al
ways saying mean thugs and provoking
quarrels and wasn't much account.
Alter discussing tho pros and cons, it
was decided to overlook the otlense and
let up on. Hank, but, a':er telling him
our decision, the judge said:
But don't do it again, Hank. 1t arc
the opinyun OF some OF the boys that
you we've too darned particular about
the billed shirt, and OF others that you
were right about wantin' to make de-
cent appearance on tho other shore,

lime, however, we'll hang you with
mule rope and in yer old duds, and lot
We run all the chances"
