POET LAURsArs FOR THE CENTENNIAL.
Comment upon the above Is unnecessary, and
the reader Is lett to form his own conclusions.
There was once man who imagined himself o
poet, not. however, from any efruson which ne had
already written but from the lnordinate desire
which he detected In himself TO write. After hours
OF labor he produced the following
Pharaoh rascal because ne made the children OF

Either this identical gentleman or some brother or

MISCELLANEOUS IDEAS.
One man wishes the Exposition building to b0

Another man, an aeronaut, says that he has q
patent cigar-shaped balloon, and desires the apprO
priatiOn OF 000 promising to crown the statue OF
tives at Washington with crown of laurel, and to
carefully enveOp 1t In an American nag And
again, one proposes to erect tower so high that
calcium light placed upon 1t "can be seen through

alone which can render the affair OF 1870 signal
triumph and grand success. Id. I,
