In Chicago
In the ,!car dead ,uy's of long
1Ro when 1'robihttlon was in its
glory, one of its chief beneficiaries,
a gentleman named Al Capone,
gave a dinner dance attended by
the creme -de -la -creme of Cicero.
One extremely pretty girl, making
her debut in this select society,
was the rynnsure of all eyes, as
site fully expected to. be, but as
the evening wore on, she grew
more and more restive. The host,
Mr. Capone 1limeelf, had not ask-
ed Iter t,, dance with hint.
"lie's. danced four times with
that frump ttitit all the peroxide
burls and purple heads," she com-
plained to her escort, "ITe hasn't
even looked at nue. You're a big
shot ---or so you tell nue. Do some-
thing ;111,01 it!"
IIrr hard-pressed escort had a
sudden inspiration, "If you knew
what it meant. Capone dancing
with that Jane 00 often," he told
her, "you wouldn't talk like that,
lie's patting the finger on heel She
must' know too much. C'apone's -
signallitig the boys to give her a
ride. She's as good 11.4 gone right
now!" The girl paler!. shuddered
with, eacitrnli'mt, and whispered,
"Gee, homey',. how teas 1 to know?"
The young Machiavelli was so
pleased with his stratefem, he
couldn't resist 11'Wag it to Al Ca-
pone, ii,, promptly decided the
jnlce 117: too good to cut short.
Ile wv 411(.1 0'. er to the girl, calmly
t:vole her away from the man to
whom site was talking. and said
loudly, -Tide dance is with mel"
For f,na' datives ill succession,
be whirled her around the floor,
at the end of which the young lady
was so fri.gItiened, she was utter-
ing incoherent sounds and her
eye: were pr,ppiutr front her head.
Capone appeared more .and more
interested.
On the way. home, Winch, much
later, the girl's escort let her in on
his whimsical little joke.
If you're. looking for a story
n-ith a happy ending, this one has
it. I suppose. The girl achieved
snore small measure of -revenge
within twenty-10er horn's. Iter boy
friend was found tread in an alley,
his body sprayed with a dozen
machine guts bullets. She was- look-
ing sadly at his picture, and won-
dering what to wear to the funeral
when 'a messenger arrived with
four dozen long-stemmed American
Beauties. The enclosed card read,
"Mr. Capone expects you to have
dinner with frim this evening."
