man, hugging a perfectly good
and extremely heavy key of beer
to his chest, toiled up the city
hall steps today and asked for
Mayor Gayner.
The. young man was directed
to the mayors office, and toiled
in there, still hugging the preci-
Gus key. Clerk McKettrick saw
him coming, and, thinking it
might be a bomb, hastily got be-
hind the counter.
"What is it?" he cried to the
sweating young man;
Beer" painted that gentle
man.
"Beer?'' exclaimed McKet-
trick, emerging from behind the
counter, and gettingfeal close to
the key. "Beer?"
"Yep," said the young man.
Then Clerk McKettrick IRE
membered he was assistant secrez
tary to Mayor Gaynor of New
York City, and ought, according
1y, to be highly indignant at the
idea of beer in the city hall.
"Whadyu mean by bringing
beer here?" he demanded. It's
