I'D to plan the salvation of their coun7

worst Of it.
Mr.. Cohen insisted on rising shortly
after o'clock this morning. He
fused around getting his things until
he woke nearly everybody else up.
Mr. Knox was the LATEST member of
the party. His friends may judge of
the degree of his guilt when it is stat
ed that he actually lay in bed until
nearly $50 o'clock.
Mr. Barnes was fretted nightly be-
cause he couldn't find his shoes. The
suave porter, Henry, as black as the
ace of spades and as accommodating as
he is black, had put pair of dainty
little oxford ties under the berth of the
man from KaySville. Mr. Barnes tried
to put them on, but it finally dawned
on him that one of his ample brogans

All was serene for twenty minutes
more. Then somebody discovered that
the train was nearly two hours late on
account of a freight wreck ahead of US
and that we wouldn't be able to get
breakfast until $3.50. The interval be-
tween 6, when the discovery was made,
and $50, when we pulled into the big
Cheyenne station, was the worst fea-
ture of the trip, so far. If Mrs. Cohen
hadn't come forward with some cold
lunch, one certainly and probably more
