TALES OF THE TOWN.

An uptown citizen, who is en-
ployed at night. was puzzled on his
return home one morning recently to
stumble on to a strange pocketbook
containing $50. He interviewed his
better half. but she had no explain
alton to offer. There was q lively
scene, three rights to jaw exchanged,
the woman having the best of it. The
husband finally sought light from the
police. They told him he was a poor
guesser if he could not see through
the affair, advised him to keep the
money and get day Job.
This happened in Moline, where
they boast of harmony. A preacher,
whose congregation was planning for
an entertainment, called on another
brother of the pulpit and asked per-
mission to hold the entertainment in
his edifce. He said he would gladly
accommodate him if his flock was
agreeable, saying he would bring the
matter before the congregation at the
next prayer meeting. He did so and
a negative vote was recorded. The
pastor then arose and requested the
congregation to Join in singing
Blessed Be the Tie That Binds"
And the organist struck bum note.
