sittings an applicant called ana informed me
that he wished to ''regishrate.r The would be

yet | was informed by him that he was 81
After the usual questions told him TO tell his
father, whom | knew, to conc to my Office, and
when he arrived the following dialogue en-
sued: Registrar-Stephen. your boy has been
here to register and tells me he Is 81; how old is
hep Father,-"Well. sir, I doent perzacly
know, but specks he's2l." Registrar-"why,
you must be mistaken, he does not look to be
over 10: how old are you 2" Father-"well
les me see, les me see rs Just about 2S goen
ON -" Registrar-"Is that 30? Now, Steph-
en-, tell me, do You know how much older you
are than your boy - Fathcr-"Deed sir, Is
almost forgot, but to tell de truff wus very
young whin dat chile wus born" Another
would-be voter called to ''regish." Seeing that
he was Ii man about forty years, old asked
him why he had not registered before, and
was informed that he had been living in WASH
ington. I then asked when he moved to the
county, and was told nc Christmas. After had
explained to him why he could not register

Before closing I win mention another Incl
dent which came very near turning the laugh
on me. The last nigh. of my stay In Town
retired early and was accompanied to my room
by friend Herbert, and whilst we were having
little chat he remarked THAT bed does not
look right Upon examination we discovered
that all of the Stats had been removed except
three. that the sheets had been well sprinkled
with salt, and that an alarm clock had been
placed between the feather bed and mattrYlss
As had been on my best behavior during the
week i concluded that such extensive prepar-
ations were not intended for me, and as trans
fering was In my line of business, / asked
friend ii. to transfer me to another room.
Later on heard some one entering the room,
and judging from the laugh which followed,
concluded that the occupant enjoyed the joke
very much. Whether or not he was ALARMED
