About eight O'clock last night one of
the drunkest specimens Of humanity
that ever "turned up' in Cairo, was
found tightly wedged, where he had
fallen from the Washington avenue side
walk, In deep narrow gully that had
been washed into the street fill. With
difficulty he was extricated, when as
suming an air Of sobriety, at once laugh
able and ludicrous, he proudly Informed
RI the bystanders that he Was representa-
tive Of the Memphis press and was en-
II titled to the hospitality Of the city. The
We q fact that he had only one flask Of whisky,
'ss.sa one pistol and no bullet holes through
decsf his hat, marked him ~ an impostor.
. The imposition was apparent. A Mem
phis editor never permits himself to get
49, SO nearly out Of whisky.
