Back the '70s, when the Kansas division of the Union Pacific was called the Kansas Pacific, Maj.

E. D. Reddingtom who had served, with distinction iii the civil war, was paymaster. At that time the paymaster was the biggest man connected with the road, in the estimation of the employes and the people living in the towns along the line, and his' arrival in the pay car was usually the occasion for a great outpouring of the people. One night Maj.

Reddington's car pulled into the town of Wallace. The major and his clerks were given a grand welcome by the people. They were escorted to a railroad boarding house and treated as royal guests. It was conducted by a buxom Irish woman who boasted that she set the best table at any town along the road. At supper that night every regular boarder turned up at the table locking his best.

The Irish "landlady," as they called, her, appeared in a neat blue calico dress, all primped up and smiling. "Tay ccrtee?" she. asked with a pretty courtesy, as she passed from one guest or another. The regular boarders understood" it all, and they answered: "Coffee, plase, mum." Maj. Reddington, however, was a down east Yankee and not much of a coffee drinker, so when the question was put to him ho replied with his usual politeness: "I will have a cup of tea, if you please." It almost took her breath away.

The look of disgust on her face caused the regular boarders to titter. Then she flared up. "Say coffee, ye omadahn, f'r we have no tar," she said, as' she poured the cup full of steaming coffee. Kansas City-Star. 1 est-S The weather is Bimply immense.
