St. Louis, Nov. Ell Perkins has
Fair grounds in St. Louis. 1 had the
pleasure of acting as pilot for the hui
morist. He rode through the grounds
in a carryall, and after a brief sur
vey of the main features of the expo
sition, as now visible to the naked eye,
out slowly in a senii-whistle, and re-
marked:

And what was that?" he was asked.
That" replied Eli Perkins, was
lie man once told me. That lie
was the only thing I ever heard of
that was bigger than this World S
Fair. l never expected in this world
to hear of anything half so big as that
lie was, but 1 must admit that this
exposition is running that vast pre-
varication a close race and the best
thing about the matter is that this

But you haven't told what that big

II can't" replied Melville De Lam
cey Landon, otherwise Eli, That lie
was so big that it would take at least
two full-grown men and a 12-year-o
boy to tell it,"
The humorist then took occasion TO
explain the origin of the story which
credited him with being a bigger liar
than Mark Twain. He said that the
late Gen. Ben Butler was the author
of that CHASTITY joke. Butler and Eli
Perkins were at a banquet. Butler
was speaking. He mentioned the art
of lying.
Il happen to know the three biggest
liars in the world said Ben Butler.
