Terrific Gale on Lake Michigan.

MILWAUKEE, April 2O.-Lake Michigan

ly gales experienced in yearS. The sea is
running very high, and vessels are unable

ing down the strand he saw card in
a tavern window bearing the inscrip-
ton, 'sDevonshire cider sold here"
The old mans heart warming toward
his native beverage, he entered the
public house and called for "a pint O.
zider. THE liquor being drawn, he
placed it to his lips and half emptied
the measure, putting it on the coun-
ter with the remark that it was every
poor stuff"
A cockney standing by, thinking he
could raise joke at the farmers ex-
pense, said:
Il say mister, do you know how
that cider was made?"
No said the farmer.
We'll I'll tell you. They stuck up
barrel of water at one end of q shed
and stood back at the other end and
threw apples at it."
Did they?" said the farmer, slow
~ slipping the cider. Then they
didn't hit that barrel more'n once.
