waiting for supper to be served We came
to an understanding. He was to give
ME $1,000 for Saunders widow, and l was
to give him a receipt in fun. He grew
sOciable and jolly as the affair was con-
cluded. and my glass was no sooner emp
ty than he pressed me to drink again. OF
a sudden things began to whirl. and then
came a blank. When l recovered con-
sciOusncss, it was morning, and l was
lying on cot bed in a strange room.
My head buzzed and racked, my throat
was as dry as paper. and as l rolled out
of bed and attempted to stand my knees
gave way and let me down. A strange
man came to me and talked, and l was
given something 20 drink, but It was

The man put his head out and gazed
at Mr.. Bowser. Then ne advised him
to eat bean mash. soak his head and

in kind. and added threat to lick mis-

the half dozen who dressed and sat up
for the next three hours and Gla-ed

breath. At o'clock in the afternoon he

he sat uP and poked his head out. Here

The ''Critter' was reused. He got in

The jaw lasted ten minutes. and as
two-thirds Of the passengers sided with
Mr.. Bowser. and as the snores dimin-
ished to sighs and gasp he felt that the
victory was his. This time quietness
brought sleep. but sleep lasted forty
winks. The wall Of child brought Mr..
Bowser's eyes open: a second wall sat
him up, and a third caused him to ex-
claim:

This time there was no sleep for Mr..
Bowser. He had got so mad that his
eyes would't close, and he tumbled around
and wished he was home so that he
could say something to Mrs. Bowser to
make her feel bad. He was ready for

There was an exchange OF courtesies.
The language was vigorous. Mr.. Bowser
was derided and defied. but his dander
was up. and he called the porter and

his rights that the political discussion
