Bach one had hadsome remarkable adventure f htand some of them »d powers of endurance and agacity self-preservation that bordercd strongly upon the supernat- ural. There was one pensive-looking drum- mer in the group who was making his first trip in the west. He said nothing himself, but scemed g interested In the stories of the others. When his rions would reach the climax in ital of their fearful struggle with the eloments the pensive drummer w(mld put on a look of the deepest athy and would s y breathe e R D triumph over the storm, wh ho would heave a sigh of reliet that scemed to come from the bottoms of his shoes, At last ry one but the pensive drummer had ‘related his exporience and they all leaned back and looked at ive drummer and then at cach sive drummer hositated a little and then bbgml timidly “Gentlemen, you have had some startling adventures, and some of you have corwmidy displayed powers of endurance. I remember an ancident that occur in a storm a couple. of rs ago in which a pig figured prominently. I have a friend in 1 wchusetts named Ristraw, who is a farmer. Ristraw was the possessor of afine lot of shoats at the time [ speak of. There was & heavy snow storm one night in I cmber and the next morning the best pig in the lot was missi Ristraw searched high and low for that pig, but not a sign of it could he find. Weeks glided into mouths until summer had given place to autumn and still no trace of the lost pig. One day in October Ristrow and the hired man went to haul some hay from the meadow that had been stacked the season beforo—that had been stacked for a year,” repeated the pen- sive drummer, raising his voice to make himself heard above the snores of his companions, ‘‘and when thoy went for the last load, right there at'the bottom of the stack lay the missing—" “Chestnut!” exclaimed the group in chorus. “As I said, the “Oh, come o “But—" “Go and cork yourself.” “But gentlemen—"" “Oh, we know all about it. That’s a choice imported stor, Brought over in the Mayflower. The pig was not only stout and hearty after his long con- finement but had actually guined a hun- dred weight. Tell us about George Cherrytree and his little Washington,” “Gentlemon, I insist that that pig was us dead as Julins Ciesar, and to all appearances had been dead for months,” excluimed the sud cyed man vohe- melitly. And tho (ml\‘ stillness for b arke por’s query of “What'll you h.l\u"' > lay the—"" sound that broke the > next half hour was the A Mileage Book Dodge. One of the Chicago lines has a ticket on the market which is not only a new dedge, but it effects a cut in the rates It is probably this ticket, or some simi- lar cut, which led the Soo line to make a reduction in pussenger rates to the east. The ticket roferred to is a regular cou- pon ticket, and one issued as good from St. Paul to Chicago, containing the clause: “Issued in exchange for 402 miles of mileage book No.-—" The name of the man holding the mileage tickot was signed on tho contract part of the ticket, but no further signatur i identification. B8.10, & cut of $3.40, In one sense it is a violation of the in- ter-state commerce law, in that it fa- vors diserimnation, It disregards the Individuality and purity of the mileage book, the effect boing explained in this v Should a person desire to go to Chicago, and apply to a scalper for a ticket, the latter takes a milenge ticket v the railroad implicated, te out 402 miles, takes it to the company tickotoflice and secures one of these ox- change tickets. There would be noth- particularly sinful about it if the chiaser had been the holder of the k and the matter came toan end right there. But such is not the idea, In a fow minutes the scalper has an- other Chicago customer, and he takes suother 402 miles out of the same book. n this way he 1s enabled tosend four or five men to Chicago on that one mileage book. As mileage books are intended for the use of one person, uud that one the orig- inal purchaser, the effect is easily dis- eernible, * A Gooa Suligestion, One of the fraternity makes a good suggestion to whom it may concern, follow: | a ou do f suggost on to use your columns, I would that some of them give us' a letter how to judge credits, what kind of men to credit and how much credit can a man have in proportion to his capital.
