"One day." he recently informed the
Boot and Shoe club, my father, a pi.
oneer in the business, hit the peg and
It flew up. What happened? Proba.
bly, you won't believe me, but It's a

hole and was driven in. But. you
know" added Mayor Brown, with a
smile. I'VE don't peg shoes that way
nowadays"

IF Illinois forces railroads to

Pedestrians who nave passed
Davenport's restaurant have no.
ticed that the fish pond has been
emptied and are indulging in con-
siderable speculation as to whether
or not Louis Davenport will secure
a discount from the city because
of not using as much water as
formerly.
The board of public works very
generously allows Mr.. Davenport
fiat rate of $50 per month. 1t has
been estimated that Davenport's re-
frigerating plan alone uses $50
worth of water per month. In addi-
! ton. the restaurant and the Pen
nington hotel are included in the
fiat rate.
No one blames Mr.. Davenport for
not paying any more than he does
for water if he can mesmerize the
board into giving him water for
practically nothing. 1t is stated
that Mr.. Davenport has informed
the city officials that he will dig
well in case they put in meters
to measure his water supply, and it
is understood that feeling of
delicacy on the part of the city
officials prevents them from max
