local editor in that wonderful strip o.
country needs only to keep one eve and one

with sort Of perpetual motion. The mar

there in matters of everyday life, ana inc

and allowed free cntrce to TIE pcast'iIcS'

little talk about his lack OF employment, tn'

heard which, although believe it must have
been Conkliug, had two ladies from the rural
districts whom he had ensconced in the
second row Of seats in the distinguished gal

in with Russell Quincy. The former took
seat directly in front of the two ladies, and
they were evidently anxious to know who
the gentlemen were. The Senator, turning

the following on card and sent it to the
ladies by page:
