a Russian seaport on the southeast

FIVE MINUTES WITH

What's the Matter With "Jack?"
"Jack" Ness, a barber on Phil
adelphia street, has always been
noted for his prowess as a hunter
"Jack" can go out into the woods
and dig up more game than any
one on the line, unless it's E. R.
Springer, Elmer Allison or David
Wearner. But this year "Jack"
doesn't seem inclined to hunt.
"Jack" hasn't got a license
yet," commented one of his fel
low friends. "He must be sick or
something.".
No hunter's license; perfectly
good dogs lying idle and "Jack"
only grunting when you ask him
about hunting. Something wrong
Several suggestions have been
offered as to "Jack's" reason for
not procuring a license this sea
son. Some declare he's jealous of
"Seal" Black's famous rabbitskin
boots and is waiting until he gets
a chance to get a pair like them
Others still maintain that "Jack"
refuses to hunt because he has to
get a license and wear a tag. just
like his hunting dog, and the idea
doesn't sound good to him. Eithei
of these two reasons may be the
correct one.
Ernest Miner Held Up
While at the spring to get a
bucket of water, J. Zampiccoli, a

a smooth-faced tall young man
who without hesitating drew two

"Hands up,!" (which he did). He
then put on his guns in his pocket
and took from Zampiccoli's pocket
$5.00.
