 A German and Scotchman argued over the battle of Waterloo in a Glas- gow street car the other day. The German maintained that the battle would have ended differently but for the timely arrival of Butcher and his Prusslans. The Scotchman said that his great grandfather was at the fight, and at it's most crucial moment Butcher struck the vicinity. He had a long baggage train, which was filled with Limburger cheese, without which the Prussians could not fight. Owing to the uneven ground great many of the wagons were upset and their con- tents were thrown out. The wind was blowing from them to the battle field, and the moment the odor reach ed the French lines there was lull in the fighting, Just at that moment Napoleon used the immortal words, "Everything is lost; save himself who can" and galloped from the field Twas Limburger, said the Scotchman, that routed the French.
