A couple registered at the Cen

The man wore knickerbockers and
had an actor-likefacelj Heboufirht
cigars, batbsdniifcs and patroniz
ed the hotel-lib 3raliyj. Happen
ing to meet Mr. J. H.. Hooper,
the proprietor,in thekfternoon, he
informed him that hel was a strand
ed actor with no money at all and
he wanted funds to getJo Wash
ington. He showed Mr. Hooper
an Elk pin which he wore, and Mr.
Hooper at once remitted the board
bill
Mr. Hooper sent: for Mr, Ham
ilton W. Wilson, thejexalted ruler
of the Elks, and stated the case to
, . i
him. Elks are Elkk the world
over, and Mr. Wilson-consulted
his check book and handed the re
sult to Mr. Hooper to be given to
Meyer. As an after-thought Mr.
Wilson decided it wcjuld be wise to
find out if the man were really an
Elk, as declared, po he found
Meyer, got him in a dark corner
and said a few. words to him in
"
Elkish Hebrew.

Whereupon , he heard some'

By telephoning
it was found
that Meyer had successfully play
