THERE is young man who holds forth
occasionally at the lower end of Lacour
street, and the way he does howl is a
caution. Last evening he favored a few
tortured listners with the delightful
melody, I'm Saddest when I Sing"
We can't say as to his feelings, but as
sure him that his auditors are always
saddest when he signs. 1t has been our
fate to listen to Norwegian sailors, Mis-
slssippi roustabouts and Nantucket
whalers, but he lays over the deck.
"Sweet spirit hear my prayer" and let
up, nor embitter life's cup with thy
bray-er.

discern no sign of that gallant steed that
brings to US news of the busy world, to
fond hearts messages of love and remem-
brance. and to hopeful ones words OF
cheer and tales of home and homes
treasures. When that brave equine that
carried Sheridan to Winchester is given
a monument, companion piece should
be sculptured to perpetuate the memory
of that fleet winged Mercury of the
desert who bears such precious freight
to the Inhabitants of Phoebe.
EVERY one that could get out last night
was out, and enjoying the beauty of the
night and the freshness of the ozone.

general good health that we, as a COM
munlty. enjoy.
