use the crushed rock as used in Suf-
folk. and so recommended the same,

widen Chestnut street ten feet on the

SWAPPING YARNS.
One Is Told of Il Remarkable Expert.
cnce War Time and Whisky.

From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.
1t Is curious how things fall out In
this world, especially on SUBURBAN
trains One evening last week party
Of students from one Of the UNIVERSE
ties began swapping yarns. First one
would take his turn at telling story
and then the next would entertain the
crowd for a few minutes. The talking
was necessarily loud, In order to be
heard, above the rumble of the cars.
The passengers could hear quite well.
and not few became interested and
laid aside their papers to listen.
Now. I'm going to make mine war
story. boys" began the third student
in high-pitched voice.
you know In war times whisky was
scarce. and the soldiers resorted to all
sorts of strategems to get dram. One
day one of the boys said to friend In
another regiment: Say, I'll give you
81 If you'n get me half pint Of whis-
you that whisky before night But
before night one of the regiments had
orders to move. and the thirsty man
was left without the whisky and with
out the dollar. Now, the curious part
of it is that at a reunion thirty years
after the man who was to have had
the whisky was telling the story to
cOmrade. or course, he SAID, laugn-
ing, I've never seen the fellow who
promised me the whisky from that day
to this
Just then a man with one sleeve
empty stepped up and said: Weren't
you in such and such a regiment and
don't you remember giving another
soldier 81 for half a pint Of whisky"
Yes And the regiment moved off
and you never got the whisky?' Yes
We'll, I'm that soldier, and l got that
pint of whisky, and I've been carrying
1t ever since and he pulled the flask
from his pocket" The student van
ished amid the plaudits OF his COM
panions.
An old fellow in front had been
chuckling gleefully behind his news
paper. He turned around and yelled
heartily: Pretty good, young man;
pretty good. You've got things straight.
I'm the man that paid for the whis-
