THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW.
With the Travelers.
**V/ r OU know," said Kochmann the other
J
day, "that there are a lot of fellows
who simply hang around _ hotels, use the
stationery, and always occupy the easiest
chairs, excluding the regular guests of the
hotel."
"Yes, I am thoroughly aware of that,"
" 'Why, yes, if you've the nerve to try it.'
" 'Oh, I have nerve to throw to the birds.
Let's have your scheme.'
" 'Well, you know how a good hotel hates
to get mixed up in a police case in the
newspapers?'
"'Yes.'
" 'This house is particularly proud of its
record in avoiding everything of that sort,
too.'
" 'I know it.'
" 'Then all you have to do is to get some
sensational case located here, and you are
revenged.'
" 'Of course. But how?"
" 'Engage a room, go up to it and commit
suicide.
It's a very simple matter, you
see. I'll loan you the money for the room
if you are broke.'
"But the man with the grievance de-
parted without even expressing his thanks
to me for my offer."
replied THE REVIEW man.
" Did I ever tell you how I sat down on
one of those fellows out in St. Louis?"
asked the versatile Reinhard.
"No."
"~
"Well, you see I had registered at the
Planter's, and was very anxious to write
two or three letters. While I was there a
fellow came up to me and said:
" 'I'd do anything to get even with this
hotel.'
" 'What's the matter?' I asked.
" 'That smart diamond-studded clerk has
ordered me to keep away from the house.
He says I have been hanging a.ound here
for the last three weeks using the stationary
and occupying the most comfortable chairs.'
" 'Well, have you?'
" 'Sure. What's his old house for if it
isn't for the use of people who haven't
anywhere else to go? But you can bet I'll
get even with him.'
"'How?'
. . . . . .
" 'I don't know just yet, but I'll find a
way.'
" 'Would you like a suggestion?'
" 'That's what I would. Do you know a
way?'
