An Amusing Incident.

During the stop-over of the Ray
mond-Whitcomb excursion vesti-
buled trains recently party of ex-
cursionists, composed Of some of
the leading merchants of the east,
their wives and daughters, engaged
carriages and "took in" the many
sights of interest in and about the
city. The day being quite warm a
suggestion was advanced by one of
the party that they visit "The
FAIR" of which he had often read
about and heard spoken of in the
north. Accordingly the party were
driven to the elegant establish
ment of Wagner & Chabot, where
they could rest awhile, and being
indoors, avoid the rays of the warm
sun.
Upon entering they were taken
in charge by Mr.. Adolph Wagner,
one of the courteous embers Of
the firm and conducted through
their immense establishment.
One of the gentlemen, presuma-
bly, the spokesman of the party, in
quired of Mr.. Wagner what caused
the remarkable difference in tenn
perature, the heat on the outside
being almost unbearable, while
"The Fair" was so cool, in fact, as
some Of the ladies remarked, bor-
dering on chilliness. The phenom-
ina was full explained, when Mr..
Wagner approached one of the
LEONARD CLEANABLE REFRIGER-
AToRs, and opening the door the
air became so chilly in that vicin-
ity that all expressed a desire to
return to their carriages and back
in the rays of warm sun.
All of this "without ice," re-
marked Mr.. Wagner, as the party
left, thanking him for his kind at
tention.
