HE SURPRISED HIS COMPANIONS WITH HIS
KNOWLEDGE OF MECHANICS.
An echo Of the trip made by Governor Morton and
his staff TO the Southern batiefieds heard a
few days ago II appears that on the return trip
the special train bearing the Governor. his stan,
the legislative committee and some invited guests
met with a mishap which served to give mem
Der of the staff an opportunity to show that he
knew as much about practical mechanics as some
people who made that business.
4 member of the party IN speaking of the Incl
dent said: 1T was one OF those days when the
whole country was sweltering and when II seemed
that no one mad energy enough to think We had
made ourselves comfortable as a temperature or
lOl degrees in the shade would permit. no one wore
any more clothing than was absolutely necessary
conversation as TO the state of the thermometer
WAS tabooed and as we bowled along northward
and homeward. the hop Of meeting cold wave or
he edge of one or anything that would offer relief
was uppermost in the minds Of all

Run battlefield and when that fact rather stimu-
lated the wilted passengers and caused them to

There stood Colonel Aston clad in the lightest kind
OF a featherweight costume and his yellow sus-
penders were hanging down his back. 1t WAS not

Was at first inclined to laugh at the advice which
