Guests Asked to Pay For Hospitality of a Four-Flusher.

Fowler Republican-Leader. Once on a time a young man went from Lafayette to the far eash and made a million on the board of trade, He returned to the banks of the Wabiish and gave to some of the boys the time of their lives. The entertainment ended with an elaborate banquet in the Auditorium hotel in Chicago, where the price for the extra is twenty dollars per day. And many went with, their wives, or some other man’s wife and had a great time. They spoke about the happy time to their neighbors and to the editor of their home paper. The supposed millionaire did not pay and can’t pay, and now the landlord at the tavern is sending each one of the millionaire’s guests a dun to pay for the entertainment. And some of the fellows who work in the stores are wondering if a twenty-five cent restaurant dinner is not good enough for them.
