coast with the special train luxury of
the Weber-Fields company, that has
been so extensively advertised.
Things were very different for the
aJrical wanderers in the Sos said Mr..
Harrigan. Going by stage from one
small town to another near San Fran
cisco 1 sat outside with the driver. The
man who occupied the box seat on the
other side Of him asked:
Say. Bill, did you see that show
last night"
1 should say l did was the reply
of the driver, and if ever 1 got hold Of
the troupe that gave that show I'd blow
them full Of holes. They wasn't worth
shuCks.

and walked with the others, and it was
the longest eight miles I ever tramped.
But Bill was not to be appeaSed. For
no money would he let us ride any fur
