Steb.

answered.

asked

"Oh. you droll chap" said the pickle
pusher; give me some toothpicks."
Then Sweet William went over to
the big window. burrowed into a
chair, stuck his feet up on the brass
rail, ate toothpicks and thought he
was IT.
When l got back to Steb he was
dealing out the cards to n lady from
Reading. Pa
Her husband had been up in the air
with bum automobile. and when he
came down he was several sections
shy.
She was travelling for his health.

She started a get-back, but her in

flounced out
Steb bit the end off penholder and
said the rest internally.
Just then couple of troupers

TT YOU'LL look real close you'll find
j Splashburg on a map of the middle
West.
It's a railroad junction where care
less travellers change cars and wait
for the other train, which is always
late.
A week ago / happened to be one
of those careless travellers, marooned
in Splashburg. and having a wicked
hour or two to kill strolled over to
the Commercial House.
Steb Stephens is the name OF the
head clerk at the Commercial House
in Splashburg. Steb has been throw
ing keys at the wall for long time
and he knows how to burn the beef
ers.
He played the Big Time once. Yes,
years ago he was a bell hop at the
old Willard in Washington and after
that he jumped to Chicago as night
porter at the old Sherman House; so
what Step doesn't know about the ho-
tel business isn't worth whimpering
over.
Steb gave me a brief outline OF his
life's history and was just starting
in to tell me about the battle of the
Civil War in which his father was
shot and who shot him when a fever

Calm yourself" said Smiling Steb.
"and tell me where it bit you"
"Bit me! Bit me-" snarled the Old
Party with the tapestry chinpiece
Nothing Of the kind. sir, [ want you
to know, sir, that your pie wasn't fit
to eat, sir"
Cut it Quit" suggested Steb.
Cut 1T out, sir, How can ! cut it
out when I've eaten it, sir? It's an
outrage, and 1 shall leave this hotel
tomorrow said Omar Khayyam
With the exception of $3172, bal

you" said Steb.
I'll see the proprietor" said the Old
Party, moving away with a face on
him like four dollars in bad money.
I'VE get it good and plenty every
day" said Steb, and just then some
thing about six feet tall, wearing
SLOUGH hat and gilt mustache, fell
against the counter. grabbed the regis
ter and buried stub pen in it's pages.
After looking over the result. l de
cided the strangers first name must
be Spider. because it loked like one

"Bath?" queried Steb.
Only during hot wave" said
Spider.

Steb.

Then Sweet William. the Boy

the next round.

friends are very remiss. aren't they?"
Yes; it looks like they we're out TO

Steb
Willie tore OF short rabbit laugh.
and then inquired what time the next
train left for New York.
The pickle factory expects Willie to
make Pocomoke City, Squashtown
Junction and Nubbinsville before next
Sunday. so he tossed the train gag
out just to show Steb that he knows
there's place called New York.

angles of the game, and soon be-
came one of the leaders, his first Of
fetal position being that of Sheriff.
which office he reorganized after his
appointment IN 1907 and made the
title of Sheriff something more than
a figurehead by his memorable raid
on the then defiant pool rooms in
South Louisville and in which
episode one OF our present national
figures played prominent part. In
the August convention of 1909 our
present County Attorney made his
first big hit with local Democracy
his speech being the one hit Of that
gathering. filling the crowd with
enthusiasm and sending them away
confident OF victory. In thar con-

present office and won easily with
the rest OF the ticket. repeating in
1913 by running 1873 votes ahead OF
