LIE NAILED
The Truth About That Mush-

Investigation reveals that The RE-
PUBLICAN's informant in that "mush-
room story" was too modest to tell
ALL the truth in regard to what the
"jovial convivialist did In order to Sc
cure those mushrooms. Instead OF
securing the little beauties from the
elderly gentleman" as stated, the ].
C. inquired of him where mushrooms
might be found, and was told that he
was growing a fine patch In his cellar.
The ]. c.promptly knocked the old fell
low down and jumped on him until he
agreed to take him to that cellar and
give him of his store. There were
something less than two wagon loads
pulled, which the J. C. had taken to
his home. While enroute there him
self the ]. c. did call at that thirst par
lor and noticing another large quanti-
ty OF the delectable tidbits, drew two
"horse pistols raised from colt, 'chas-
cd the attendant into the refrigerator,
the others out the back door and gath
cred the mushrooms to his bosom.
With these he proceeded to his happy
home and his wife has been cooking
mushrooms ever since. We sincerely
regret that we reported the affair In
the very tame way that appeared in

above. II people can't tell mushroom

Such was the reasoning Of the Igor
rotes at the St Louis Exposition, who
were ordered 70 wear more than the
strip cloth which their ancestors have
found sufficient for centuries. Acting On
this reasoning the IgorrOtes kept their
new-found trousers hung on the bushes
about their camp most Of the time.
Policemen were unable 10 persuade the
IgorrOtes that the bushes were not in
need of clothing. A native who wore
the trousers forced upon him was the
exception. Now IT has been decided
that no further attempt viii be made
to compel the IgOrrOtes to Americanize
themselves 10 the extent of acquiring
the pantaloon habit.
