The Kansas ' City Journal tells this story: “Frank Anderson was for years a well known commercial traveler who made Galena. He was passionately fond of honey, and the proprietor of the Ge- iena hotel, at which he always stopped. always had some on -hand for him. On one trip Anderson took his wife along, and as he approached Galena he men- tioned to her that he was getting to a place where he could have honey. When the pair were sitting at the supper ta- ble that night, no honey appeared. and Anderson said sharply to the head wait- er. ‘Where is my honey? The waiter smiled and said: “You mean the little black haired one? Oh, she don't work here nowl’ " A Cool Read. .“It was in the terrific log jam in Grand river.
