Ore night at the Hartford Monday
Evening club meeting George, our col
ored butler, came 10 me when the sup
per was nearly over, and noticed that
be was pale. Normally his complexion
was a clear black and very handsome,
but now It had modified to old amber.
He said:
"AIr. Clemens, what are we going to
do? There is not a cigar in the house
but those old Wheeling long mines.
Can't nobody smoke them hut you!
They kill at thirty yards. q is too
late to telephone-we couldn't get any
cigars out from town-what can we
do? Amt It best TO say nothing and

which he did.
l had just come across those "long
mines" a few days or a week before.
l hadn't seen a long nine for years.
When I was a cub pilot ON the Mis-
sissippi in the late fifties I had had a
great afrection for them, because they
were not only-to my mind-perfect,
but you could get a basketful of them
for n cent-or a dime. They didn't use
cents out there IN those days. SO when
/ saw them advertised in Hartford /
sent for a thousand at once. They
came out to me in badly battered and
disreputable looking old square paste
board boxes, 200 in box. George
brought a box. which was. caved in on
all sides, looking the worst It could,
and began to pass them around. The
conversation had been brilliantly ami
mated up to that moment, but now a
frost fell upon the company-that is to
say. not an Of a sudden, but the frost
fell upon each man as he took up a
cigar and held 1t poised in the air-and
there, IN the middle, his sentence broke
of. That kind Of thing went on all
around the table until when George
had complotcd his crime the whole
place was full OF a thick solemnity and

There are a lot OF men who use two

spreaders. They draw the manure out
daily and do not have enough for a
spreader load. This is especially true

cart is water Hght and saves all the

COMPLIMENTS NOT
FOR WEATHER
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

Kansas City had compliments for
Amarillo last night but none OF them
we're for the weather and It is en-
tirely likely that a large crop Of
tne richest compliments failed alto
gether to mature. For reasons OBJ
vious and uncomfortable there was
no parade Of open automobiles at the
station to meet the visitors, and for
the same reasons there was no OPP
portunity for the ladies OF Amarillo
to cement the bonds of friendship
between the two cities at the recep-
ton which was to have been given
at the summer theater.
In spite of these serious handicaps
however, the Kansas City men were
pleased with Amarillo, and enjoyed
their visit here and the Amarillo
business men who met them we're
benefited by the visit. The train
came in over the Denver and arrived
here shortly after 8 o'clock. Not all
the members OF the party braved
the dlscomforts of the norther and
the rain to come down town and
those who remained royalty enter
tanned the Amarillo men who went to
the train, The Kansas City club
has train of seven handsomely fur
nished Pullmans, buffet, and dining
cars fitted with every device for
making the trip pleasant,
Down town the various heads OF
enterprises in Kansas City visited To-
cal business men and interchanged
greetings. The visitors uniformly
expressed themselves as being sur
prised with the showing made here
and declared that Amarillo has the
finest stores they had seen since they
left Kansas City. The various mer-
chants had succeeded we'll in their
window decorations and interior dis
play and the effect made hit with
the visitors. After the round Of
calls had been made number OF the
party gathered at the Amarillo hotel
where the local and visiting men
spent very satisfactory evening
the visitors assure the local men
that their only regret was from the
fact that they had not arranged to
reach Amarillo earlier in the day so
that they could have seen more Of

sonally acquainted with their custo-
mers here all merchants have agreed
to keep their stores open until after
TIE arrival OF the train. The Clerks
union has generously consented to
waive the closing rule for that even
ing and the clerks will remain In
their places until the Kansas City
men can call at the various bust
ness houses.

club has an orchestra and a quintet
