After the $100 Bills.

Every time Arthur Krohn's fireman picks up a piece of waste now Arthur seizes It and says: “Let me do that!” Arthur gets the waste as soon as it comes Into his engine and tears it all to pieces, looking for bundred-doilar bills. Every railroad man on the Big Four knows Arthur Krohn is the special engineer for engine 24, which Vice-Presi-dent Burnett uses when he inspects the system. Arthur’s fireman picked up a piece of waste to wipe the engine at Cincinnati recently, and in tearing it apart he came across the ends of five 1100 bills. There was just enough there to tell that they had been SIOO bills -and not enough for Krohn or his fireman to send in to Washington and say that the bulldog had seised the bill when the children were playing •with them and had swallowed the other part and would the government please send new ones, as they were needed at home. ’ The ends of the bills were stuck together and there was no way to toll bow they got into the waste.-—lndian-apolis News.
