the employ of farmer, and say they
worked Ike farmhands, performing the
hardest labor on the place. Finally,
having decided that nothing could be
worse than another summer OF
drudgery. they resolved to come TO Kan

They had no money TO pay railroad

were out of reach of their master. Then

HYDE A WINE EXPERT.

A friend of Jar.es Hazen Hyde says
that If the young vice president of the
Equitable Life Assurance Society were
to enter the wine business he would
make a great success. II seems that as
a wine connoisseur he has no superior;
he can determine the most surprising
differences n the flavor of wines.
In proof of his genius in this line the
story is related of him that while dining
at Fifth avenue hotel with a party OF
business associates few weeks ago. he
ordered sherry. and on tasting the wine
he instantly detected the flavor of iron
in it, The wine was of the most expen-
sive vintage. Two others of his fellow
diners who had also ordered 1t detected
nothing wrong, but nevertheless Mr.
Hyde stuck to his claim, and in order
TO prove, If possible, that he was cor
rect, he requested that the particular
cesk from which his sherry had been
tapped be broken open and its interior
and the wine sediment thoroughly ex-
amined In the bottom CT the barrel the
cause of the trouble was determined IN
the presence of a rusty Mathew York
Globe.
