OF COURSE IT WAS GUM.

Warner Elmore and Dick Rawlings were Rensselaer visitors Monday—and thereby hangs a tale of woe. On arriving in the city they met up with Gum Peffley on the street, with whom they chatted a spell. When they returned to the car they found that someone had let the' air out of their tires, and frankly accuse said Gum of the job:. They also came home on three cylinders, and think Gum responsible for that Warner will have to hire a Liberty Guard with a wooden gun to go along and protect his property when he leaves town, it seems.—Remington Press.
