WAS NOT IMPRESSED.
Country Hotelkeeper Not at All Awed
by the Dignity of the Governor
of the State of Ohio.

They tell this one on former Gov.
George Hoadley of Ohio, says Judge.
Once upon a time, in the midst OF
a campaign, Mr.. Hoadley was to de-
liver a speech at little town in the
great and glorious Buckeye state.
When he reached the one hotel the
town boosted he walked up to the
register and wrote his name. The
proprietor head porter steward
neutrality-suspicious. was behind
the desk in his shirt sleeves, his hat
on the back of his head, and cigar
stump held between his teeth. When
the visitor had put down his John
Hancock, the factotum turned the
register around, read without flicker
wrote 40" beside it with a lead pen
Gil and said:
"You kin jest take yer grip right
up that stairway there an back down
tn hall clean to tn end. Yer rooms
right on tn lifet-hand side of tn hall,
in tn corner-No. TO-"
With considerable establishment and
not little injured dignity, Ohio's
chief executive pointed to his name,
smiled family, and said:
81 am George Hoadley, governor OF
the state of Ohio!"
Turning then with a look of exas-
perated impotence on his face, the
hotel man exclaimed:
well, what dye expect me & do
kiss ye?'
