What Did He Mean

When J. w. Bolger departed for
Colorado this spring he gave M.
q. Smith two barrels, eachof them
Gas about half full OF salt.
Recently Mr.. Smith started to
use some of the salt and found
. side of bacon buried therein.
Aside from his natural citation at
finding the bacon his curiosity
was aroused, so Mr.. Smith dug
deeper and found a nice ham.
Now Mr.. Smith is wondering
whether Mr.. Bolger left the meat
IN the salt by mistake or whether
he just used a nice method to ex
tend assistance to the needy.

According to the meteorological

first minute, but the instruments
continued TO record the shocks for
fourteen minutes more.
Although the shock was felt in
all parts OF the city, few realized
the magnitude of the catastrophe
until late in the forenoon, due to
the fact that the casualties were
confined to a comparatively small
area. Accustomed as the residents
are to earthquake shocks and to
