New York, Aug. 2f.-In the days of was always scramble when he walked into a restaurant, The check boy lost a little of his stern personal ity as he Whisked, away the newcom- CTS hat, and the head waiter himself marched him in state to his table. Ev- anywhere service swift, delft and del erential was his, for in those days Rubensohn was a tipper
 Times changed; Rubensohn, earn ing only a small fraction of his former salary, had to take his meals in cheap restaurants, which boasted neither check boy nor maitre d'hotel. His tips, perforce, shrank, but a tipper he remained. His com> ing still caused expectant smiles to spread over the faces of those who served him.
 Nickel and Keys.
 On Monday Rubensohn left his room at 1850 Lincoln avenue to the tune of a cheerful jingle in his change pocket. Part of the jingle was made by lonely nickel; the rest by a bunch of keys. The nickel might, at a pinch, do for a tip, but
 
 Rubensohn met a. friend down. town-a frugal person, from whom he had received many warnings against his free spending proclivities. The friend heard Rubensohn's story and slipped a quarter into his hand.
 Now come and have something to eat with me- he invited.
 They walked into a restaurant and olo toh P,,h nhn had been there before. The waiter recognized him.
 "Yes, sir. What can do you for?" asked the waiter.
 Walters Rubersohn had used to know spoke differently, but he just smiled and nodded.
 See what my friend will have, Fritz" he answered, airily. "1ll have the same.'
 Tips His East Tip.
 The check came to forty cents for the two. The frugal friend took a quarter a nickel and a dime from his pocket and started for the door.
 Wait" called Rubensohn. II must settle with the waiter.''
 And he dropped his nickel on the table.
 OOl. COIIlIueIlleu lue II1cHu. "Why tip when you're broker"
 It's part of the price of meal" said Rubensohn.
 A couple of hours later Rubensohn appeared at the Wilcox avenue bath ing beach. He remarked, as he passed over the frugal friends quar- ter in exchange for bathing suit. a bath towel. and dressing room key, that he had just finished a long -.~s.t pS
 When the bathing beach was closed that evening Rubensohn's clothing was found in his room. It was still there last night, waiting for him. But the police, having heard the story of the frugal friend, the charity meal, and the nickel tip, are not looking for him to come back.
 Rubensohn's last job was that of salesman in downtown store. He taught a German Free Thought Sum- day school class in Schoenhofen hall on the west side.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 26th.-
Special Correspondence
N. F. Reed OF the Iowa democratic
state committee returned home this
week after making special trip to
Washington to obtain the co-opera-
ton of the national committee and
the national congressional committee
in the campaign the last OF this
month and the first of next month in
the second Iowa district.
Chairman Reed was eminently
successful and ne returned with the
assurance that the full strength of
the administration and the national
organization will be thrown into
Iowa to retain the second in the
democratic ranks. Assurances were
given by Chairman McCombs OF the
national congressional committee,
and Congressman Doremus of the ma
tional congressional committee, that
Senator Jim Reed of Missouri,
Senator Ollie James of Kentucky and
Senator Hoke Smith Of Georgia
would be urged by the committees to
speak in the district and that two
members of the house. one OF them
probably Congressman McGillicuddy
of Maine, and the two Iowa members
Congressman Connolly and k:rkpat-
rick, would also be invited to speak.
1t was not necessary for Mr.. Reed
to call attention to the Importance
of the second Iowa election. Mem
bers of the committee had previously
discussed the national aspects of the
campaign, seeing in it the first BIZ
election since the tariff law had been
placed in operation and since the en-
actment of the currency legislation,
and the first election in the west
since the new administration went
into power. 1t is felt that the voice
of the middle west will be expressed
at the special election next month in
the second Iowa, and the first accu-
rate guage of the sentiment toward
President Wilson and the democratic
administration will be obstained. The
administration leaders shared Mr..
Reeds confidence that the result will
be vote of confidence in President
Wilson and the constructive legisla-
ton of his administration.
Chairman Reed and Congressman
Connolly were members of dinner
party at the Raleigh hotel with Tom
Pence, head Of the national commit
tees publicity bureau, and the man
who conducted the press campaign
for, President Wilson before and at
ter the Baltimore convention. when
National Committeeman Wade wiz
ed Mr. Reed of the nomination of
Henry Vollmer of Davenport by the
second district convention. All were
pleased with the choice, as Mr.. Voll-
mer has long been known as one Of
the ablest democrats in the state and
man of Oratorical powers who will
make himself felt in congress if
elected. ....s. r..g
While in Washington, number of
appointment matters were cleared up
by Chairman Reed, who had been
authorized to act for Judge Wade IN

The Oldest Horse Dies.

r. E. Molleston's faithful and use
full horse "Old Bill which he had
owned for about twenty years, died
at the farm over in Decatur county,
last week at the age of "a years. He
was nearly thoroughbred and was
bred by the Summers of Illinois, and
trained for the race track, but later
was brought here when II years old
by B. F. Scott. He was large enough
for all kinds of work and proved to
be one of the best farm horses, and
until three years ago filed his place

Car on the Track.

AS the regular freight train was
between Leon and Pleasanton as it
was coming to this city last Monday
night a narrow escape was had from
a bad wreck. when a big box car fill
ed with automobiles left the rails
while on high grade.
Fortunately the train was going
slowly enough that the train was
stopped before the big car turned
over thus saving big smash-up. The
automobile car was only three cars
ahead of the way car which was fill
ed with passengers and had it turn
ed over it would have taken the way
car with it. The train was delayed
about hours. GAINESVILLE News.
