A Lost Hat?
An amusing accident that happened
at a certain popular hotel in this city
last night.
My hat! Oh, my hat! My hat is
gone! Oh, landlord, some one has
gotten off with my hat!
Mr. Landlord (getting excited) —
What, where, who. that so, what Is .t
someone get off with your hat? Why
here-is the hook where you hung it • p,
but the hat is missing. A search of
the office took place. And after a
long search and some wonderful thla'-c-
ing it was discovered- that an elderly
gentleman guest had taken the hat
by mistake and left his own, and jJl
wrong was righted.
