Town TALK

Captain Graham will be received with
delight by many of our swels for Cap
tain Graham is certainly a favorite
with them He was frequently the
host of many automobile rides and en-
tertainments during his visit last year
and presume that he will repeat, dur
ing his present visit His automobile
took the first prize at the automobile
show last year and the general public
is asking whether he will enter his au-
tomobile in the next automobile show
i'm February If his vessel is i'm port
at that time, | am sure he will, and l
am also sure that he will come very
near winning the first prize Captain
Graham has the knack of getting
there" whether handling a crowd of
sailors or dealing with his other mat
ters and he will be a dangerous COM
petitor if he enters his machine again.

Nothing for a long time has given me
so much pleasure as to see that my
learned friend County Attorney E. A.
Douthitt has Joined the Young Mems
Christian Association and is now one
Of the leading lights of that worthy
Institution. on Thursday night he adj
dressed the Thursday Club at the AS
socation rooms after dinner on the sub
iect of Federal, Territorial and Coun-
ty Police, Prisons and Jails" The sub
ject was one of his own choosing
though there is no truth in the absurd
rumor that his acquaintance with iai
life was derived from aught other than
observation.
My learned friend descanted on pri-
sons and jails with such eloquence,
am told, that the spell-bound audience
was almost on the point of dashing out
madly and committing GeTredations
which would land them in either fed
eral, territorial or county penal institu-
tions and had it not been for the Coun-
ty Attorneys hypnotic eye, with its
vitreous CLINT, there is no saying what
might have happened.
John Cathcart sat in the back of the
hall and jeered, but that was merely a
display of jealousy
1 am glad, as l said before that Eddie
Douthitt is now a Y. NJ. c. A. man. For
months past I have noticed a change
coming over him and now, as Captain
Berger might say der change has
came"
IT'S pretty hard to find a man now
when you want him, and he isn't in
his own office" said Harry Armitage,
as he went up Fort and around on King
and then back to Merchant in search
of man that usually could be found
, in two minutes
When Martin used to keep open
house." he continued. you could tell
to a minute when any man you wanted
to find would reach the Third House,
and when he would leave. Now If he
doesn't get lunch at Notes you're at
sea. We ought to have subsidized
Martin to remain at the old stand

A friend of mine thinks he has made
discovery in agrostology. He knows
it is in agrostology because he looked
friend has a horse which he turns out
to Craze in a pasture where there are
a great many trees and some large
shrubs. A part of the pasture is so
well shaded that there are places where
the sun rarely, if ever, gets with direct
rays. The trees are rather tail so that
the shade is not so dense but what the
manienie grass grows very luxuriently
in it, but it gets very little direct sun.
Well, the discovery my friend has
made, is that his horse will not eat the
grass that does not get the direct sun.
He thinks it must be because there is
something in the taste that the horse
does not like, and that it is due to the
7 lack of sun.
