WASHINGTON, June 5. - Sen.
Thomas Taggart Of Indiana, is an
inveterate practical joker. This is
considered one Of his best: There
was an Indiana politician whose
greatest pride in life was the pos
session Of a handsome gold watch
that had been presented TO him in
appreciation or his work for the
democratic party. Taggart met this
man one day in hotel lobby.
Il want to borrow your watch a
minute TO show 10 a friend over
here" said Taggart. I've just been
telling him about the great work
you accomplished for the party
Come over and tell him about the
watch yourself"
Proudly the man handed over the
watch. whereupon Taggart substi-
tuted another watch OF similar ap-
pearance He let this watch fall to
the floor The fall broke it all to
pieces. Small cogs and odds and
ends OF mechanism lay in all direc-

That was the last straw. The man
who thought his watch had been
ruined-the watch that was the
pride Of his life-was a frenzy.

that watch" he fairly screamed
And you call boy TO sweep il up

air of one about TO dismiss a trivial
