"Where'd that monkey-wrench come from?" asked the foreman, aghast.

"What did you say, Mister Foreman?" "I said that we find the defendant guilty," replied the foreman calmly.

One evening an old gentleman by the name of Metcalf, father of the late T.M. Metcalf, came wandering into the office about 9 o'clock and told the foreman he thought he could help him out.

"I guess this lady can say anything she wants!" declared the foreman chivalrously.

Do you find the defendant guilty or not guilty?" "Not guilty," returned the foreman eagerly, amid audible evidences of satisfaction from the Abyssinian brother, the Baby's World editor and the others.

At least, I recognize your foreman.

"Well, I guess that settles this case!" announced the foreman.

"It's the longest yes I ever heard!" audibly remarked the foreman, who was feeling his oats.

As I will explain later, those are merely symbols of the Church" "Of wot?" interrupted the foreman, in deep scorn.

Jake did not look a typical Northwest foreman and laborer.

"The old man sure made a funny deal down at Piney yesterday," observed the foreman, with a wink at the man to his right.
