WERE THEY SANDWICHES ?
Landseeker Buys Six But Throws
Them Back at Vender.
While the hamburger men are tell
ing hard luck tales , some passengers
returning from reglstrallon points can
"come back. " An eye witness to one
incident of the landscekers * life In
Norfolk believes both sides have a
right to kick. When the noon train
from Gregory arrived In Norfolk Tues
day , a hungry looking landseeker
jumped from the last coach and hur
riedly ordered six sandwiches. These
were dropped Into a sack , making n
noise like so many beans dropping In
to a gourd. In his hurry the land-
seeker did not hear this noise and
made ills way back to the coach Just
as the train started east. As the coach
ncared the lunch stand , a window
was thrown up and the angry face
of the landseeker was seen directing
threatening looks at the vender. Sud
denly he reached back and threw the
entire sack of sandwiches at the
stand from which they came. "Take
'em back you ; take 'em back , " he
yelled. Then the sack struck the
stand with a thud.
A hungry bird dog came along
picked up the sack and carried It
down the tracks where he was seen
later In the day gnawing away at
the land rush food.
