A WESTERN LIAR.

A Western mac had been telling some Philadelphians how Western cities grow. He says he went off into the mountains hunting and, night coming oa. he went to sleep in a tree to be out of the reach of the wolves. He was awaked early in the morning by some workman, who told him to get down and finish his nap on the court house steps, as they wanted to tors that tree into * flagpole for the hotel across the way. He got down, and while rubbing bis eyes was near run over by a street ear and got his feet tangled in an electric ligAt wire.
