Some of Conductor mel" Williams

their sleeves over a joke played on the
good -hearted and jolly puncher of tick
cts while on the eastern division a few
days ago. Conductor Williams, it
seems, is very fond OF squirrel. but rab-
bit-Well, he can't go that, and says
that he would as soon eat kitten. Know
ing his dislike for the cotton tail, but the
extreme pleasure he manifested over a
dish of squirrel, a cook on the dining car
served up some young rabbit in deli
cious manner, and entered 1t as squirrel
on the menu. Conductor Williams ate
very heartily OF the dish, relished it and
complimented the cook on the prepara-
ton Of the delcacy. He even sighed
for more after 1t was all gone and want
ed the cook to try and get few dozen
to cook for him when he made HE next
trip to Peoria. The conductor doesn't
know vet what he has eaten, and the
cook and others who know OF the differ
ence in the game say that what he
doeo't know won't hurt him.
