two whole drinks. But Quinn is all
best move he ever made is when he
went to New York. He couldn't do too
much for me. He's all right up to the
democratic club, too. He's right in it
and they all respect him. He Is study
ing law, and he won't be any jack law
yer, l can tell you. He dresses just as
fine as anybody in New York and he is
in with all the big ones.
1t was Quinn set NE right on my
hat. When ] was in Anaconda getting
ready to start I went to the store and
told them | wanted a new hat. I didn't
want any last years hat, / wanted a
hat right up to date-a little ahead of
date, you know. I wanted hat that
would be right in style when climbed
in to New York. So they gave me the
only hat, they said, that wouldn't make
me look like jay in the big town. 1t
was good hat, all right. 1t was a
soft white felt and it looked all right.
When l got to New York / couldn't
see any hats like it. Pretty soon the
other fellow wanted to know why I
didn't chop it and get in line with the
rest of them. He had bought hat just
like mine, but had switched it for
straw after the first day.
Never mind, says +. These New
Workers are a little slow, but they'll
catch up to me in a few days. They
can't be far behind I'll just wait for
them Fb
II kept wearing the hat and when
went out to Sheepshead bay l got up
on The roof of the grand stand and
looked at the hats. There We're about
10000 people there, but no hat like mine.
Then I met Quinn.
Where did you get that hate
says he.
Never mind says I. L am little
ahead of you fellows, but I'm not proud.
You'll all be wearing them in month.
It'll be the fashion then
1T was the fashion two years ago.
says Quinn.
Then went and bought straw
Il got good after few days. I just
revised myself from the skin out I
was looking just as good as any of

of the Hoffman house one evening,

used to stand in front of the hotel
every evening about that time and
watch the streets cars go by. l had on
yellow shoes and a pair of red silk
stockings. Quinn had told me that silk
colored stockings were the thing just
then, so | bought two dozen of the
loudest I could find I had on a pair
of white trousers, and / rolled them up
an inch or two. I had to do that to
show the red silk stockings / had on
blue and white shirt and collar to
match that come up pretty high. But
it isn't true that it came up to
straw and a cane. I also had a neck
tie-but never mind about that necktie
We'll, l was standing there with the
rest of them, picking my teeth. A
sort of a seedy individual came along
and looked US over. Pretty soon he
come UP to me and says he:
Excuse me. sir, but would you
kindly loan me 10 cents?
| Il looks at him a minute and then
l says:
I'll give you quarter, pardner, If
| youll'll tell me why you picked me out

Well, you see says the duck,

me like good-natured sort of sport

says:
Young fellow. put that by itself
where you'll know where it is, says he.
You're a fast traveller and I've seen
fellows like you get way ahead of the
dining car. When you get to that point
you'll have that dollar to get a square
on
THAT cop was all right. But he was
all off on my needing that dollar. I've
got that dollar yet.
But 1 soon found better way to
watch the ball games. You start out
of the Hoffman pretty early in the af-
ternoon. You kind Of saunter along
down Broadway and drop into the sa-
looms. In the saloons are tickers and
the ball games all over the country are
given by innings. Each saloon will
give you one or two innings. By the
time you get down to Wall street you
will know how ali the games come out
and have accumulated IA gentle jag at
the same time. Then you strike Wall
street just about the time George Hal
dorm and Frank Mcguire are coming
off shift at the stock exchange.
THE secret about having a good time
in New York is not to drink too fast.
Keep drinking right along, but don't let
it get action on you. Just :zaep mellow
and you can enjoy all that's coming,
see? All the pleasure is in the approach
to a jag-not in the contamination
Keep letting the jag approach, but see
that you stay on the windward side OF
it.
Quinn by the way can give more
good reasons for not drinking thar
any man l ever saw. As a temperance
lecturer he beats the band. After
talked with him I quit drinking fol

A Glacier Fall
of Grasshoppers.

There are many remarkable glaciers
in that part of the Rocky mountains
that crosses the southern border of
Montana. A part of this region has
hitherto been unmapped. and it's more
elevated portions were unvisited and
unnamed until last summer when
geological party piloted the way up The
mountains and discovered some of the
largest glaciers in the temperate re
gions OF the western world. Heresrise
Granite peak, which, according to Mr.
Gannett, is the eliminating point of
Montana, 12,s24 feet high.
Among the glaciers found in these
mountains and recently described by
James P. Kimball is Grasshopper gla-
cier, which derives it's name from the
enormous quantity of grasshopper re-
mains that are found on and in the
glacier Periodically the grasshoppers
that thrive in the prairie to the north
take their flight southwark and must
needs cross the mountains. Their fav-
orite route seems to be across this wide
glacier, and in the passage scores of
thousands of them succumb to the
rigor of cold and wind fall helpless
upon the snow and are finally entomb-
ed in the ice. In the course of time
billions of them have been the victims
of this glacier. They are, of course,
carried by the ice river down into the
valley and deposited at the melting
edge of the ice. and Mr.. kimball says
that thousands of tons of grasshopper
remains are the principal material al
the lower edge of the glacier. We hear
very often of rocks and sand as form
ing the terminal moraine of glaciers,
but here is a glacier whose principal
morainal material is grasshoppers.
These insect remains are washed out
of the ice in burrows wherever the
suns heat has grooved the surface in
to rivulets of descending water. Tha
grasshoppers permeate the glacier from
ton t. bottom. No fragment of ice can
bt broken so small as not to contain
remains Most of the insects have
been reduced to a coarse powder anu
the burrows of them washed out hy
| the rivulets and naturally disposed IN
parallel lines are very dark in color.

Who Is Father
of the Raa1uay'

From the London Chronicle.
Who is the father of railways
Books of reference give the distinction
to George Stephenson and DR.. Smiles
has enshrned the claim in his "LlNSs
of the Engineers" But an effort is now
being made to secure recognition or 9nF
claim of William James, a WarWlck-
shire contemporary of Stephenson. IL
appears that in 1799-when George Ste
phenson was lad of 1S-William James
was engaged in laying out plans LOT
railroads. In 1902 he journeyed INTO
Lancashire for railway survey puI
poses and conceived the idea of estao
| fishing railroads between Liverpool
and Manchester, Bolton and othef
| towns for the carriage of cotton anu
| general goods
Between 1919 and 1920 James pro1ect-
| ed a line called the Central Junetlon
| railroad, a portion of which, petWefh
| Stratford-on-Ayon and Moreton-ln-tll e-
| Marsh, with a branch line to SKlpton,
| was actually laid. In 1S21-22 Mr. Jaiiss
| formed the first railway company III
| England, the Liverpool & Mancneste.,
and in the family papers 1t IS allegeo
| that Stephenson in surveying It's Hne
| merely followed in his footsteps. Sir
| Edward Watkin and other leanlhg
| railway men are strongly impressed
by the claim of the Warwickshlre man
| to be the pioneer of our railway sSs-
tenn and a committee has been formed
for the purpose of getting his service
! recognized.
