Silver Pete stalked over to the table
where score Of embalmed relics lay
piled with legs dangling, wings cross
ed upon their chests, and jabbed a
critical thumb into their breast bones.

knowing this to be q fact, Brick
changed the subject.
Here's some Chicago newspapers
what was in the box them birds was

handing the crumpled remains Of sew
eral dailies over the bar. "They amt

Pete accepted the papers and spread
them out on table in the rear Of the
saloon. While laBorlously perusing
them, Brick busted himself polishing
the bar with his shirt sleeve and re-
counting the cash in the register.
Several customers ambled in and
looked inquiringly over towards the
figure at the table.

though he was man considerably
this side Of 40. his hair was streaked
with white.
More citizens appeared, glanced In
quiringly at Brick and then at Pete.
The former was becoming yisibly
nervous when the figure pernsing the
papers suddenly tossed them aside and
shouted. "Set EN- up, Brick! Give the
gents what they calls for al. plenty
OF 1t. An here, pass over them rattle
tickets I'll buy the whole outfit, re-
serving the privilege Of distributin' the
birds as see at.
The rattle tickets, likewise 80 silver
dollars, passed over the bar in rapid
fire succession.
After the third round Of lubricants
had gone the way Of all rounds, It be-
came known that something out of the
ordinary was happening in the New
York saloon. SO before enthusiasm got
beyond the fourth inning, Brick was
playing to full house.

and passed it to him. After the stock
was depleted he elbowed his way to
the bar.

The round was dOwned in silence.
Were some OF Pete's folks dead, had
he come into fortune? Wonderingly
the glasses were drained, and then the
expectant audience turned to their
host.
