Among Senator Depew's stories
there IS one about veteran on a
street car.
The veteran, in all the panoply oil
his blue uniform. brass buttons and
white cotton gloves, was ON his way
to a Fourth OF July picnic on the out
skirts of the village. a stranger
boarded the car, and the veteran,
leaning across his vile. engaged the
man in conversation.
The talk soon turned TO warfare,
and the veteran said.
"Yes, sir, I've seen 1ightlp.' | got
this cash acrost the cheek at Chicha-

interesting. You have, indeed, sir, seen
hot lighting. But, tell me, how did
you get that long. deep. murderous
dent down the side of your nose? A
cavalry charge, hand-to-hand engage

The veteran frowned and ignored
the question He began to talk about
the heat. But his wife interrupted.
Go on, BILL" she said impatiently.
Tell the gentleman how you got the
dent In your nose"
You shut up, Hannah" said the
veteran.

Gary. Ind. Aug. 6.-An attempt by
the manager OF a Gary theater 10
palm off fake pictures of the Jeffries-

rlotous scenes that required the call

yeels OF derision went up from the
spectators, The fighters representing
