PLAINFIELD TPhe Militiaman’s Story, College men who are members of the militia_tell some phony storles and still get by with them as truths. One of these stories was told in Plainfield a short time ago when a college man 0 is a member of the Yale battalion s home on a furlough. While standing in the railroad sta- tion the baggage master walked in and inquired of him tha condition of his wound. The militiaman responded that it was improving wonderfully. The baggage master asked if he wouid not like to have a shot at the greaser who nipped Lim. The answer was: “You just bhet!” At this moment a bystander walked up and tapped the college vouth on the shoulder, inquiring if he was with the U. S. troops at Mexico. Then the college youth left Georse Washington's class by saying “Yes” The bystander cagerly asked him to explain how he was shot. Without the slightest hesi- tation, the following story was told: “A number of us boys were anxious to go in swimming and fearing the treacherous Mexicans, three were sta- tioned on shore to guard. 1 was one W caretully bandaged arm.) I was shot, but the bullet did not lodge in my arm, although it tore the flesh badly. We were unable to get a shot at the Mesican or Mexicans, who must have dispersed at once.” After telling some stories of life on the border, the Interested person brought the soldier (?) to the cigar stand and treated him to some of the best and when leaving wished him g00d luck. 1f the interested listener only knew, the speaker was a college boy who was camped at Tobyhanna, Pa., and whose arm was bandaged up as a.result of vaccination. Did the baggage master get a clgar? Graft! or robbery! $100 REWARD $100.
