LOST TEN SHIRTS.
Story Told on the Late 7. Marquette,
Railroad Attorney.

7. Marquette was probably one Of
the brightest corporation lawyers the
west has ever known. and previous to
his death was well known in railroad
circles, says an exchange. He was at
one time the chief attorney for the
burlington route and his duties kept
him travelling a great deal. He was
OF a unique makeup and like all queer
people he must go to some extreme. He
chose for his extreme the reverse of
neatness and system. His wife told Il
prominent railroad official once that she
started him out on a certain trip with
ten clean shirts in his grip and when
ne returned the grip was empty. She
was astonished and when asked where
the shirts had gone he replied IT don't
know, must have lost them" That
night when they retired the mystery
was explained. as Mr. Marquette re-
moved ten shirts when he disrobed At
another time the same official. when
accompanying him on a ten days trlzs
round his grip packed with the statutes
OF Nebraska and not another single
thlng IN It. The wife probably did not
prepare it that time.
