McDUFF GAINS FRIENDS
 FIND OUT HIS BIRTHDAY

Yesterday was the birthday of Me- Dun Cain. Superintendent of the City's Water Works Department. and only the fact that the greatness of the day vas known to fewer than half dozen of his friends prevented q presentation made to him in the presence of few from becoming a semi-public affair. for there are scores of Mfr. Gains friends who would like to have been fin on it.'' As 1t was only the donors of a very handsome gift and few others were present when he received a cut glass decanter, topped with massive silver mounted stopper, on which engraved letters told that 1t was intended for 'McDum Cain. June II, 1908. from Si and Ed"
 asi and Ed" are W. ". seidle and Edward J. Mahoney, who are among Mir. Gains closest friends. They, made the presentation because they like Mir. Cain and he likes them, and there were no formalities. s6
 Buddy, you know we like you" said Mfr. seidle. who was spokesman, "and 50 we give you this"
 we certainly do," said Mir. Ma honey, and the few other friends pres- ent by happy chance offered to ccrrob- crate the friendship between Mir. Seidle and MT. Mahoney. the donors, and Mir. Cain. the recipient
 It was not needed though. as was shown in the short speech with which Mir. Cain expressed his gratitude for the gift and for the friends who gave 1t. Mir. seidie and Mir. Mahoney were positively radical in their friendship for MT. Cain; they declined to tell how old he was. and he was as much the centre of q problem as was the formerly celebrated Anne.

 He did flnd an opportunity, however, to relate stories Of mosqultoes which caused his hearers to sean with search ing glances his reputation for veFae- ity. The oiiicer stated that he was forced to drink fabulous quantities of kerosene to keep the prying insects from defacing the only skin with which he was provided on the trip. 4 by stander, and incidental listener, de- clared that Mir.
