MISTAKEN IDENTITY.
We met; twas on street car. I was
sitting there quietly, crying patbetical-
ly about my cinders, when girl came
into the car in evident distress, blinked
around, and then threw herself upon
me in violent embrace, as she ejacu.
lated: "Oh-h-h-ho! my dear moth

furcated garment in her eve with the
cinders and apologized. As the reader
will by this time have guessed she was
probably mistaken. l do not think
was her mother.
THE BUSIEST PLACES
in the city are around the newspaper
offices. Never was advertising space
sought with such avidity. The old
centre of the city is gone, and what lit
tie business there is left has taken ref.
uge in the south and west-a mile and
a-half from the old stand. Men have
been compelled to establish new quar-
tiers suddenly, and they who never ad-
vertised before are now per force seek
ing the publicity of the daily papers.
AN ODD SPECTACLE.
1t was very funny, the way in which
those associated in business found each
other after the fire. The Tribune es-
tablishment, for instance, with hun
dred and fifty employees, was completely
destroyed. 1t was as if the building
had exploded and blown them to every
point OF the compass. They got together
next day by the gravitation of elective
aiiinities," generally gathering around
Deacon Bross as ponderable focus. |
visited the "office" on the West Side
Yesterday. 1t was a dismantled beer
saloon, the kegs set on their ends and
the shelves torn down and laid across
Tor seats. In the front of the long row
Cowles sat on the window sill, with a
few vagrant sheets of foolscap for new
ledger. Horace White walked ner-
vously around. In the rear Of the
room were gathered the corps" in
a huddle, Sam. Medill and Sidney
Gay balancing on one of the i'm
provised seats and trying to rise to the
level Ofthe emergency.
AROUND THE CORNER
was the rendezvous of the Eucniag Post.
The proprietors had lost everything but
a good name, their building, presses,
libraries, books, files, and
finally their dwellings, but they seized
on hospitable job office here, and are
bringing forth with stubborn zeal a
little evening paper. The editorial
rooms are in a baking powder factory
overhead. Blakely is buzzing restlessly
about; Croffut is rising the bed of an
old hand-press, his table, and Miss
Maggie Buchanan has turned box Of
baking powder on end for seat, and is
writing an editorial on "The New Chi
cago."
On the whole | may report to you
that prospects brighten daily-by which
| mean only that the terrible darkness
lifts little. Daylight is in the East

AnecdOte OF Henry Clay.

1t is known that Mr.. Clay was re-
markable for his recollection of faces. A
curious incident of this wonderful power
is told of his visit to jackson, Miss, in
the year IS. On his way the cars
stopped at Clinton for few moments,
when an eccentric. but strong-minded
old man made his way up to him, ex-
claiming, as he did so, Don't introduce
me, for want to see if Mr.. Clay will
know me-"
"Where did know you?" said Mr..
Clay.
"In Kentucky" answered the keen
sighted, but one-eyed old man.
Mr.. Clay struck his long, bony finger
upon his forehead, as if in deep thought.
"Have you lost that eye since saw you,
or had you lost it before 2" inquired Mr..
Clay.
"Since," said the man.
"Then turn the sound side of your
face to me that l may get your profile"
Mr.. Clay paused for a moment, his
thoughts running back many years. 81

me a verdict as juror. at Frankfort, KY,
