porter were playing billiards in F'o-
ley's parlors, when a telephone mes
sage called Coroner Whitcomb to
the telephone. From the other end
of the line Pioneer Press police re-
porter asked to see the doctor there
within half an hour. The coroner
said he would wait.
In the course of fifteen minutes
the Pioneer Press reporter entered
the room. Singularly enough, he
paid no attention to the coroner, but
when Jimmy Healy and the GLOBE
reporter started out the front door
the Pioneer man was after them in
an instant. Calling to Jimmy, think
ing he was the coroner, and that the
GLOBE man was trying to spirit
him away, he said:
Say, Doc, 1 want to see you a
minute
Jimmy tumbled in a minute that
he was taken for the coroner, and,
being a personal friend of the
GLOBE reporter, enacted the role
OF Dr. Whitcomb, and told the Pho
neer man there was nothing in the
story.
But the Pioneer man thought the
doctor" was
TRYING TO THROW HIM,
and concluded to do a little bluffipe
Now, Doc, you know we can make
it very warm for you down there if
you do not do the right thing by us.
Inc Pioneer has always been friend

fairly, but We will get even with you

playing about the corners of his
roguish eyes.
Just then the fire department was
called out to the fire in Gillette's res

opportunity to conveniently
CHANGE THE SUBJECT,
pulled out his Official guide and be-

rectangular envelope of a Nile green
Stint and addressed in a Della Crus-
Can hand, was received at the office
| of the board of charities. 1t was I'M
| necessary to note the curling tails of
1.-THE commas and the accuracy of the
| spacing to know that the misSive was
lfWritten in the Hub. Within the cult
Eured envelope was a single sheet.
lNyThe secretary, already impressed,
| opened the Enclosure with care and
almost with apprehension. 1t was
his own circular, but down towad
the bottom of the page doomed up
a large rotund Interrogation mark
expressive in every curve of sur
prised Intelligence. The interroga-
| ton mark was placed above: a mot, >"
a little word whose presence has
doubtless already caused "Wailing
and gnashing of teeth in the Land
of Wooden Nufmegs. The Inspired
One had written every circular TO
read: New Haven is not a seat of
learning and philanthropy, yet it is
convenient, ETC." So the secretary
reads all his mail now by proxy,
and explains privately his absolute
conviction that in the fair sex, per-
sonal charms and mental strength
never really exist together.
