DAKOTAN TOO MUCH

FOR TEXAN.
A Dakotan and Texan who met
in Chicago we're disputing about the
greatness Of their respective districts
and among other things traded mar
yelous stories about the work of the
wind in each locality. "How fast
does a Texas norther blow?" asked
the Dakotan at last. "How fast?"
Well, the only thing that will meas
ure it is lightning. When a Texas
norther is coming, they telegraph
ahead, so people can get underground,
but when it gets under good headway
1t will just about run neck and
neck race with the telegram. "How
fast is a Dakota blizzard?" "Oh,
you can't measure a blizzard. There
is nothing like it. I've seen a bl1z-
zard just skin a telegram off the
wires and carry it on. I never saw
but one, the speed of which could be
measured. There seemed to be some-
thing the matter with that one.
1t went rather slow, only about a
million miles a second, and we
couldn't tell what was the matter
with it until it went by when we
found it was dragging one of those
