FOR DRY CONGRESSMAN
Thrifty Germans First and Last
Chance Saloon Near CAPITOL.

Hearing that the sale of liquors in the
senate and house restaurants was no
longer tolerated, a thrifty German
opened saloon at the foot of the CAPT
tol just before congress convened. His
establishment is located on Pennsyl-
vania avenue, at the corner of the last
street before the broad expanse of
grass that leads to the big white build
ing is encountered. The proprietor has
hung out an artfully worded sign that
is calculated to catch the thirsty legis-
lators both coming and going. As the
weary senators and congressman ap-
proach the, capitol this legend attracts
their eyes:
