JOKE ON THE CONGRESSMAN.

tells Of an experience during his last
visit to New York
The representative had put up at an
American-plan hotel. When, upon sit
ting down at dinner the first evening
of his stay, the waiter obsequiously
handed him a bill of fare, the con-
gresham tossed it aside. slipped the
waiter dollar bill, and said, Bring
me good dinner"
The dinner proving satisfactory, the
southern member pursued this plan
during his entire stay in New York.
AS the last tip was given. he men
toned that he was about to return to
Washington.
Whereupon, the waiter. with an ex-
preston Of great earnestness, said:
