FIesh, spirit and the VelIed God.

Flesh, Spirit and the Yelled God.
Mr. Randolph spent the day getting
acquainted and proved himself good
mixer. By telling a few stories that
had not yet sifted down from Club
land and by standing a few drinks he
soon found himself made free of all
the technical Information he needed
and some more that was so ultra-tech-
nical that it could beat the brains that
Invented the delicate mechanism of
the. taximeter, He also established
part ownership in a comfortable room
in house very much ON the wrong or
west side of Broadway, in fact within
smelling and almost splitting distance
of the North river.
While he was still in funds he
bought himself woolen khaki over
coat with one of those enormous col
lars which look like an inverted
bucket when they are up and surpass
in efficiency the traditional black mask
so beloved by illustrators Of the week
" press. He also had a speaking slot
cut in the glass of the cab window
Just behind his best ear and subse-
quently removed and lost the slide

ROCKY COMFORT
(Too late for Last Weeks, Issue. ]

(Too late for Last Weeks Issue.l
Next Friday night, March 18, the
Anderson Athletes will go to Rocky
Comfort and meet the champion bas-
ket5all team of that place. Rocky
Comfort has an excellent team and
have not been defeated this season.
But they will not come to Anderson
to play the Athletes. They were Of
fered $50, $75 and finally $10O, re-
turn game assured them, if they would
come here, but they finally refused,
So Anderson consented to go to Rocky
Comfort for the sum of $35, all they
could get, and no return game. What
do you know about that? What does
Rocky Comfort want?
We wish to state in regard to the
above piece that Anderson never of,
fered us $75 or $100 to come to
Anderson. They offered US $50 to
come to their court, or would come to
our court for $50. We could get good
teams like Minden Mines, Marionville
and Mulberry for that money. We
consider S35 far too much money for
the Anderson team. Also we received
only $32 for all three games we have
played at Anderson. They promised
us return game, but this is the first
time they have returned to Rocky
Comfort. Anderson has a good team
physically, but they are not bali play
ers. Their centerman, Keyes, jumped
we'll but tipped Ford on the elbow
most every time. The million dollar
guard, Pogue, who had never been
scored on went down to "a on the
dollar with 10 points by Dabbs to his
credit. One difficulty Of the visiting
team was one of their number was
absent and man from an adjoining
state was tcansplanted into the team.
The Rocky Comfort players held them
selves down for the first half in order
to hold the fans, the score being IS to
7 in favor of Rocky Comfort. However
the last half our boys wanted a little
exercise and permitted Anderson to
get only one field goal, the final score
being AZ to IL in favor of Rocky Com
fort. The fans say it was the poorest
game of the season and told the boys
to never bring such team here any
more. On account of Anderson fall
ing to bring the man they agreed to
from Joplin, Moore of Peirce City was
secured as referee and he certainly
called a good game.
0. 0. Fox of near Powell was here
on business Friday.

sta su4 .,.cious. "He lives here all
right, but I amt seen him turning
down his own cars for r. ~--hawks
lately"
''Well," said Mr.. Randolph, Il could
tease you along for some time and
make you look like nut, but I won't.
The truth is, his prize bitch, Bride Of
Lammermoor, is pupping tonight, and
I'm here to take the lady and her lit
ter down to the dog-show in time to
get 'em settled for the opening. Messy
job, but the meter is charging for it."
"There amt man living that could
think up lie like that, not sudden, y
murmured the officer, and turned TO
resume his beat, while Mr.. Randolph
promptly hit the mat in the hope of
catching up with Elysium. He slept !;
he slept too deep for dreams, and was
beyond the reach of the call of any
motorhorn when Mr. Milyuns' town
car tried to shoe him along at eight
thirty Of bright morning.
Once more was AIR. Randolph
dragged by main force to wakefulness
"Good-mornng, Thomas" he re-
marked. IS the o!G nan up?"
"Hully gee. N. Randolph! What
ave you been up to now?"
"None of yours, Thomas" said Rob
ert Hervey, in kindly but firm voice.
"Get me bit of paper and pencil"
The chauffeur discovered the re-
quired articles in Mr. Milyuns' car,
handed them over and curiously
watched Mr.. Randolph write his note
to the effect that Miss Imogene Pa
mela Thornton would receive her legal
representative at Mr. Randolph's
rooms in Fifty-ninth street between
nine and ten. 1t was added that the
said rooms, upon which rent had been
paid to the end Of the quarter, and all
they contained, including the man,
Tomlinson, were at the perpetual dis
position Of the said Miss 7. .55tstrs'7'
''NoW, Thomas" said Mr.. Randolph,
'you take this in to the old man him
self and tell him chauffeur with an
empty cab brought it. If you say an
other word I'll have you up at the
union for losing me my job, and I'll
lick the stuffings out Of you besides.
Get meT
"Sure thing, Mr.. Randolph said
Thomas. leave 1t to me to help you
make trouble whenever you feel like
1t. It's a slow world except for the
likes of you"
AS soon as the man had entered the
house, Mr.. Randolph started his cab
and made for point of vantage in
the park, from which, in due course,
he beheld the arrival of the lawyer at
Fffty-ninth street. He waited long
enough to make sure that the legal
gentleman had penetrated to Miss
Thornton; then he threw up his flag
and made for the garage.
He sought out the manager
"Say," he plunged, Pat O'Reilly
lost his job to me last night shooting
craps. My clock read twenty-eight
dollars this morning; here's my slip"
The manager glanced at the slip,
and took long look at Mr.. Randolph
you're ON, kid" he decided. "Take
any shift you like, What's your
namew
'Slim Hervey," said Mr.. Randolph
promptly.
Zone of them earned Names" COM
mented the manager. "All right. Go
to it."

"Sure-thats all right, boss" said
the driver conciliatingly. "No bones

more: have you fggered that it's five
nours to the opening Of secondhand
Sixth avenue or the Bowery. an I'd

all that time?"
WHAT'S the matter with these
clothes?' asked Randolph, a little
peeved. well you've heard my offer.
Take it or leave it,"
Sure I'll take IL" said the driver
promptly "If wasn't a-goin' to have
TOOK 1t from the first, what would "a
been standn' here talkin' for?"
Whereupon they entered to the
cramped privacy of the cab and ex-
changed garments. Randolph was
ready in ten minutes, but it took him
another ten to complete the apparel
Ing of the puzzled chauffeur. That
worthy added to his investiture in
Randolph's best evening suit a sickly
grin.
Say" he asked, chow do l look?"
Mr.. Randolph surveyed him.
"Oh, you'll do, all right. You look
about the way l would if I'd been on
bat. Better have a few drinks, if YOU
can find them, and lie world will fall
for your clothes. What time do l turn
the wagon in, and what time do / go
on again? Do you bunk at the garage,
by any chance?"
"Never you mind where 1 bunk"
said The eX-cabman suspiciouSly.
"D'you think I'm goin' to throw in
happy home for two hundred? You're
on the night shift for this week. Read
the rules and regulations when YOU
get to the garage. Say good-by to the
boys for me an tell the manager to go
to blazes." -.,v.-x; ,s.,,so.. .;..s,g,.,
they followed this remark out of
the cab; the tough in fops clothing
cranked the car and turned westward,
as previously chronicled, while Mr..
Randolph, now substitute to Patrick
O'Reilly as driver of the Village Cab
company's No. 1898, hurled his char
lot eastward, not to meet the morning,
as it had appeared to the watching
Miss Thornton, but in search of the
residence of the head of the legal firm
charged with the duty of carrying out
the instructions of the defunct Mr.
Asa Thornton.
Mr.. Randolph, vice O'Reilly, drew
up at the familiar address in Madison
avenue and laid his car cheek by jowl
with the curb as though anchoring it
for a long stay; then he descended
from the drivers seat, entered the
cab. exclaimed thanksgiving at finding
a rug. wrapped himself in it's warm
folds, curled up on the seat and went
to sleep.
