HE WAS CONVINCED.


 A cattle king of Volusia County had come up to town to celebrate a bit with the boys.
 He was so roughly dressed that the attendants of Bettelini's were inclined at first to demand security for his meals, but when he showed roll as big as your two fists, and claimed an acquaintance with Charley Dougherty, what he said went. Whether the open sesame was Charley Dougherty's name or Uncle Sans on the long green is a matter of conjecture. Each is good enough, so let that pass. The cattle king was dead anxious for discussion, and the waiter said that he declined to discuss anything except the war of 1910.
 "A heap of people have been in here," he said "and I've been unable to get anybody to discuss the war of 1S1O"
 I'm yer man." declared the cattle king, smashing his fist upon the table. ] That's purity far back in Spanish his 1 try, but I'm yer man. Say, but you tell me first who discovered America"
 ''Why, Christopher Columbus did, | Christopher h-l never hern of no 1 sich man." and the cattle king laughed a great hawhaw. Christopher Colum- | bus! Humph!"
 'fWell, who did discover America if he didn't asked the waiter.
 "Why Ponce de Leon. Ain't that big hotel over in Augustine named after him? If Christopher Columbus had discovered America the hotel would have been named Hotel de Christopher Columbus"
 The waiter was inclined to argue the point, but the cattle king pulled

In the first half St. Joseph scored a touchdown in three minutes of play and also kicked a goal, but there was no more scoring in that half. In the second half the home team made two touchdowns, one safety and one goal. Treat of Walling ford was so badly injured in this half that he had to be taken out of the game.

Owing to lack of space, mention of
the German given at the Town hall on
Friday evening, September 10, was left
out of our last weeks issues Although
it was one of the warmest nights of the
season, about 25 couples were present,
and a delightful evening was spent
During intermission the young couples
took advantage of the moonlight and
sLrolled through the Street in Joyous
crowds. The affair was in charge of
Miss briggs and Miss Josephine Glover,
and they certainly did themselves great
credit. The favors were all made under
the supervision of Miss Glover and were
very pretty and unique There were
sun bonnets for the ladIes and chrysan-
themums for the gentlemen, made of
tissue paper, also empire fans, note
books, hat pins and jumping jacks. The
figures of the German were gracefully
danced, and the young ladies presented
pretty picture as they went through
the dance arrayed in their gay headgear.
Light refreshments we're served during
the evening. The music was of the
same high order that has prevailed at all
of the hops so far this season, Prof
Weidenhammer and Mr. Bentley of
Bridgeport eEcelling in their efforts
that evening. THE German closed the
social season which has been one of
gaiety. The young people of the Street
have greatly enjoyed the summer of '97
In company with the city guests and
many pleasant memories will linger in
their mind during the coming winter.
