thermore, he had met with an accident
near Clifford, the bumpers of two rail
way cars squeezing his foot. That was
why the right foot was bare and why
he limped, carrying his shoe and stock
ing In his coat.
"I have a million dollars in my pock
et," he snid and he was at once taken
to the West Side police station.
"You're from the Hillside home, are
you not?" asked Dr. Paino. "Yes," re
sponded the grey-beard. "I have twelve
wives," he continued, "four children;
bought twelve car loads of hogs last
week; going to eat them up myself; If I
can't, twelve wives can." He knew
everybody that the policemen men
tioned. He knew Orover Cleveland,
