HE BOUGHT THE HAY.
doW an 1nebriated Pennsylvania Farmer
Got tho Best OF tho Auctioneer. ...

How an Inebriated Pennsylvania Farmer
Got tho Best of tho AuctIoneer.
Ihe man who goes to an auction
sober is often tempted to purchase
thlngs he does not want and cannot af-
lord to buy. But such temptation is
much stronger when it comes to one
who has been imbibing over freely, mar
hcularly If he is OF q speculative nature.
Yet there are few who have sufficient
wit to get them out of difficulties of this
character, even when their brains are
more or less befuddled. An amusing
occurrence took place at an auction in
one of the rural towns of Pennsylvania,
where a. house, barn and farm were of
fered for sale. Farmers came from all
the surrounding country with view of
making q day of it and some of them
imbibed too much corn juice in honor
of the occasion.
In the barn were stored between
20 and 30 hundredweight of hay
prime timothy-on which the bid
ding started at four cents and
gradually rose quarter of q cent at
time, until it neared the market value
of seven and a half or eight cents per
pound. "
: The auctloneer was annoyed by the
reckless bidding of a typical old hay
seed who was so drunk that he could
hardly stand. He was determined to
buy that hay, regardless of its cost.
and when the last sober bidder feebly
cried "eight cents" he shouted "ten!"
Of course nobody would go higher than
that and the farmers chuckled to think
how their neighbor was to be taken in.
do you mean to pay cash for this hay?"
asked the auctioneer, who began to be-
lieve he had a good thing. "Wall, l
reckon" replied the inebriated hay
seed. "And how many hundredweight
are you gcing to take?" Dunno as
kcer bout takin' a hundredweight,"
said the purchaser; "you might gimme
bout one pound" What the auc-
tioneer said will long be remembered
by the farmers of Montgomery county.

sires the election of Mr.. Bryan, whom he
praises as Il good and able man. A very

ever, from now on, he says, devote all of
his time to the election of Bryan and
Sewal and to the promotion of the cause
of free coinage. This explanation ought
to satisfy every one, and it is hoped the
eloquent Virginia Senator, if his'presence
is not imperatively demanded in some of

time to visit the Southwest and give the
people of Roanoke the benefit of his logic
