dressed in rusty black clothes and carry
ing an old fashioned reticulo embroid-

self. When she saw the horse, SHE
stopped and took some Jumps of suga-
out of her little bag. She put one of
them between her lips and marched up
under the horses nose. The intelligent
animal shifted, looked and saw the sugar
He also saw the little old woman who
held the sweet morsel in such a forbid
ding setting. The horse hesitated. wig
gled his upper Zip and gathered in the
sugar. The woman rubbed her hand
over her face where the horses lips had
brushed it. The ceremony was repeated
several times, and just as the last lump
was gone the driver reappeared.
"What yer dom to that horsey" he de-
manded.
Gimme 8 cents" said the old wom-
an stoutly. I've been giving your
horse all my sugar because you went off
to drink alone and left him."
The man refused. The crowd howled
with laughter and gave all sorts of adj
vice. The little old woman repeated
her demand. The driver finally fished
out the coin and drove off, while the old
woman went her way talking to herself

AN INNOCENT IN A Hotel.
A Stranger Gets Into a Hotel once and
NIakes Thinns IiveIv


Makes Things Lively.
There is stopping at the Great North
ern an old countryman, who was in for
mer years an intimate acquaintance of
Colonel Saye, the night clerk. He went
out Sunday afternoon and returned to
the hotel some time after midnight feel
ing a bit frisky. Presenting upon his
acquaintance with the night clerk. he
opened the. gabS and went behind the
counter to show the clerk how to attend
to his business. While Colonel Saye's
attention was called away, the old fell
low sat down on q stool behind the coun-
ter and innocently leaned his broad and
weary back against about 80 of the push
buttons on the annunciator,
An electric wire connects these but
tons IN the rooms above with gongs
which make peculiar and astonishing
amount of noise, especially when they
start suddenly after midnight and keep
up the racket without cessation. Well.
when the old man leaned his back against
the annunciator the noise began up stairs,
but of course he didn't hear it, so he
continued to sit there and push the but
tons.
Many people had left calls 30 as to
catch their trains. They got up and be-
gan to dress, but they couldn't imagine
why the deafening noise continued after
they had pushed the button in response
to signify that they were up. The 9th
ers were panic stricken. The halls were
soon filled with men and women in all
kinds of deshabille. Each door as il
was opened let an additional noise into
the hall, until with the oaths of the men
and the screams of the women it seemed
perfect bedlam. People became mixed
up and got into rooms with others whom
they had never seen. One man, after
the scare was over. never discovered that
he was i'll the wrong room until getting
in bed he almost mashed baby.
OF course there was rush for the of
fee. The clerk opened his eyes and
grabbed his gun as everybody fired ques-
lions ut him at once. He said he
couldn't explain it, but they must he
crazy. Then he looked around and saw
the old ''chump" sitting on the stool.
with an innocent, inane, toothless smile
stretching across his sun bronzed face.
Colonel Sage pulled him up by the col
lar and told him what he had been do
ing.
We'll, Ill be gol darned," was all he
said then, but as the people started up
stairs he said, I'm sorry l disturbed the
good people. but who'd ha believed that
that darn board could make all that
noise when it only had mans bacl,
a-leanin against it," Then he went over
and began to push white spot on the
new postal box. He thought he was
ringing for the elevator.-Ch Chicago Inter

Vikings loved to capture rich merchant
men and then take charge of the store

They also loved to capture beautiful
ladies and offer them their hands in mar

could be fixed in few moments and
would often throw the husband over
board with cooking stove tied to his
leg. Finding it almost impossible to
tread water with cooking stove, death
would ultimately be his proportion, and
he would drown, leaving no sign but four
or five bubbles where he went down.
