walton. -Four travelling men were on
train heading for the same town
this happened in Ohio. A discussion
arose as to the probability as to who
would secure the largest order. A
mutual conference developed that one
was selling shoes, another clothing,

were In the string" and coal trades.
The first two expressed conviction
that their sales would eclipse in
amount any that could possibly be Sc
cured by the Irvine or coal statesmen.
The argument readily led to bet,
that a special dinner should be order
ed at the local hotel to be served at
the close of the days work, and to be
paid for by the one who would have
the smallest sales to his credit.
This proposition was seized upon
with alacrity by the first pair, for they
were convinced that soles of clothing
and shoes would far eIipse those of
their opponents. When they rounded
up at night after the days campaign,
and met around the festaI board TO
figure results. this was the showing
made:
The salesman for shoes proudly ex-
hibited an order book with the sum OF
$500 standing out in bold relief.
The clothing man laid down his
hat and novelty figures at 800. Then
with a grin that plainly said. I've got

agreed to supply a binder company

took the cake with the clincher of

everything that occurred within and
without Every creak. stamp. and
snore was faithfully reported; every
curse. blow. snarl re-echoed to his
ears. Inside was hell; outside was
Sheridan.
Wearied, and half dead. as Keith
was. sleep was simply impossible. He
heard heavy feet tramping up and
down the hall; once a drunken man
endeavored vainly to open his door;
not far away there was scuffle, and
the sound of body falling down stairs.
In some distant apartment fellow
was struggling to draw off his tight
boots, skipping about on one foot
amid much profanity. That the boot
conquered was evident when the man
crawled into the creaking bed, an
nouncing defiantly, "If the landlord
wants them boots off. let him come
an pull 'em off" Across the hall
was rattle of chips. and the voices
OF several men. occasionally raised in
anger Now and then they would
stamp on the floor as an order for
liquid refreshments from below. From
somewhere beyond. the long-drawn
melancholy howl of a distressed dog
greeted the rising moon.
Out from all this pandemonium
Keith began to unconsciously detect
the sound of voices talking in the
room to his left. In the lull OF OBJ
structing sound few words reached
him through the slight open space be-
tween wall and ceiling.
Hell, Bill, what's the use goin' out
again when we haven't the price?"
"Oh, we might find Bart somewhere.
and he'd stake us. l guess | know
enough to make him loosen up. Come
on; I'm goin'."
Mot me; this town is too near
Fort Hays; Pm liable to run into
some of the fellows"
A chair scraped across the floor as
Bill arose to his feet; evidently from
the noise he had been drinking. but
Keith heard him lift the latch OF the
door
