A Story of Jay Gould.

Twenty-three years ago I was a clerk
I'm general store in Gasconds county.
Mo. Gasconde was a little hamlet on tho
Missouri Pacific railroad. Very few or tho
village could speak English, and practi-
cally none could write IL well enough for
the transaction OF business. l was re-
garded as quite handy as letter writer
compared with my surroundings. ana
when the village wanted more ample
switch facilities for the shipment of grain
was delegated 10 lombard the genefai
offices with English mssives, urging com
pliance with the claims and requests OF
the community.
one day when had quite made up my
mind that my efforts would never bring
| results j was informed by more than hair
| the population of the town that let
| ter was In the postoffice for me. and that
IL was from the Missouri Pacific railway.
! Ii Informed me that Jay Gould's special
car would stop at the village on certain
| date. and that General Manager A. a.
! Talmadge would be pleased TO hear per-
| sonally, for few minutes, from citizehs
concerning their complaints and grieV-
| ances.
! The proprietor OF the general store was
| a very fat German. who had as many a.
! four chimneys I'm his house and Justly
/ considered himself the legitimate spokes-
/ nan of the town. He was a nne ola rel
low. with a fine old heart, but he hau
| been king of the community SO ioib tho
! he couldn't see how any other man couiu
be bigger than he. He was no diplomat >
and instead OF talking switch 70 Mr.,
TaImadge he insisted on discussing tho
matter with Jay Gould himself.
| The inevitable result was clash. Both
men became quite excited and some very
sharp and cutting things were said by
Mr. Could. To relieve the situation Mr..
Talmadge asked me TO go on the train
and ride with him till met the regular
return train. during which time he would
talk about the necessity or addftionai
switch facilities. =.
When the train started Mr.. Gould Tell
! into a fit OF meditation which continued
for more than four miles. Suddenly he
started from his seat and pulled the bell
