The steamer Slate of Montana has been running- regnlarly since last Sat- urday, and Cheney, Houston & Co., are proud of her, as they certainly have reason to be.

When I used the expression 'low neck' chime an old chap sitting just across the table (min Me, whose face was long enough to enable hint to eat oats out of a churn, scowled at me and said in a stage whisper: 'Lit- tle neck clams, little neck—not low neck.' I paid no attention to the in- terruption, and finished my speech. When dinner was over he trailed me out into the hall and said: \you are from Wisconsin, ain't you?' \'Yes I replied. \'You don't have many clams up there, I reckon.' \'Well I said, 'we have some, but it's u good ways to water, and in driv- ing them across the country their foot get more, and they don't thrive very well.' \He gave me a look that was worth $1.50, and in a tone of the utmost dis- gust-, said: 'Lord! clams ain't got no feet.' \He turned away, and approaching one of my fronds, inquired: 'Is that fellow governor of Wisconsin?' \Yes replied my friend.' \'W-a-1-1' the old man, with a good deal of feeling, 'he may be a ----- smart man in Wiseenmin, but he is a - -- fool at the sea- shore.\ Chicago Tribune.
