A "HOT" COLD BANQUET.
Some Inside Information by Waiter
from the Bowery Who Helped
Serve 1t.

One of the walters at popular local res
taurant is bird of passage irona,t ~ Bow
cry and was member OF the small army
that served the famous Dollar Dinner" in
New York last April. A good many stories
have been told OF that memorable event,
but none OF them surpass his own in point
of picturesqueness and inside detail. 1T
was the funniest push was ever In in me
life" he says, contidentaly. The kitchen
was so small they had to cook everything
on the outside, and when it got there it was
dead cold. The second course was haddock,
and each fish come served in linen bag,
so we could put EN- in tubs of hot water
and warm EN- up-see? Well, some of the
boys got ratified and served 'em bags and
all, with egg sauce over tn outside. Say,
you'd OF died laughing seeing them fellers
tryin' to carve their fish. This is the tough
est aud haddock | lver tackled in me life
says one Tammany man at the head table;
it's got skin like rhinoceris,' says he.
In the kitchen there was riot all night
long. 1t was so small the walters couldn't
reach the dshers-up and they got to scrap
ping for front places in the line. One man
was knocked stiff with turkey, and when
they picked him up | thought he was dead.
/ did, on the level But it wasn't blood 1t
was only cranberry sauce. Another turnkey
fell into the salad and one of the cooks put
can of ice cream in the oven, thinking it
was brown gravy for the beef. That's on
the square----just as I'm tellin' you! But the
worst of all was when we came to the wine
1t was 'Merican champagne in half pints,
without ice, and of all the kicking and hol-
lering! One fresh gent told me 1t was the
only thing he had had that night that was
good and warm, and he had hardly said it
when waiter that was a little jagged ac-
cidentally poured about quart of boilin'
coffee down the back of his neck. Say, you
ought of heard him cuss Between you and
me- good many walters got to hitting the
wine, and they found one of 'em with 10
empty bottles in his pants leg. That's hon
est. | saw it myself. 1t was the hottest ban
quet | was ever at"-N. 0. Times-Demo-

Jesse JAMES SPARED HIM.
The Desperate Might Have Hiilcd
Traitor Stapp, hut only
Warned Him to Move.

Ex-Stata Auditor Van B. Prather of
Galena was in Topeka the other day,
and while in conversation with some
old friends the suicide of lobe Stapp,
of Webb City, Mo-, several years ago
was mentioned. This recalled to
Prather a recollection of the suicides
brother, r. b. Stapp, notorious 20 years
ago as Dick Stapp.
For number of years Dick Stapp
lived in the Short creek lead-mining
regions near Galena. Stapp became
| notorious in connection with the Jesse
James gang, and lived in CRANKY, Mo-,
where he kept a saloon. The James
gang had designed to raid the vaults
of the CRANKY Mining company and
took Stapp into the enterprise. At the
same time they planned the Otterville
train robbery. Stapp weakened at the
| last moment, and told the officers OF
the plot Afterward at the trial of the
| only one of the Otterville robbers who
was arrested Stapp was the principal
witness for the state, and the man was
| sent to the penitentiary. Stapp was
CON- Dcllcu W lcdNC vi amy ny iNoi VI
assassination. He came to Short Creek
and then opened saloon in Galena.
One night man wearing blue Cog
! giles and a SLOUGH hat well down over
his face appeared and called for
| drink. 1t was given him, and as he paid
for it he said: "Your name is Dick
Stapp. Do you know who l am -
Il believe | do replied StaLSFp, ave
same time reaching for pis ,ol BEN
the bar ~
Il am quicker than you e are, as
ought to know" exclaimCsSHl srran-
ger, producing a revolver from his over
coat pocket. But l have not come to
shoot you. This is a mission of peace.
l want you to be out of the way when
we give ourselves up to the authorities.
If you are not some of us will put you
out of the way"
"All right" said Stapp. With that
the stranger walked out of the house.
1t was Jesse James.
Soon after that Stapp went out of the
saloon business and engaged in mining,
! but he was consumptive, and short
/ time before Frank James surrendered
| he went TO California, where he died,
! thus depriving the state of the only
witness who could connect Frank
| James with the Otterville affair.-Chi-
