4 TRAMP poet is rare bird, and the
printing Office which is honored by his
presence and his illusions may well plume
itself on the distinction. Such an honor
has been voucbsafed to the PILoT "Ah,
distinctly we remember" his first appear
ance IN our sanctum. Judge Kirwan and
Editor Nash were present, discussing re-
lglon and putting away at cigar, 1.-TWO
for i've cents.) when the poet burst upon
them. His eyes burned with the fire of
genius, his breath was redolent of the
vintage of the potato or some diseased
wheat. and his coat of some antique cut,
was like flag that had waved in the
smoke of fifty battles. Ie bore under
his arm package of brown paper, such
as Is used in wrapping up limburger
cheese. Nash made some classical allu-
sion to Pegasus and the Pierian spring,
aud kirwan, being in literary atmos-
phere, gave choice extracts from Spen-
GERS Faery Queen. The poet thought
the gentlemen were being facetious at
bis expense and the sleeves of the latter
ed coat were quickly rolled up, disclos-
ing pair of brawny arms fit for IL Cy-
clops. He said something about want
ing to see the editor, and that if his wish
es were not Immediately gratifed, apple
| carts would go down as rapidly as wheat
when bears have control of the market.
Poetry was instantly forgotten in the fe
verish desire to get out of the sanctum
and find us. We had never before seen
live poet. We were startled and be-
gan to protest that the article was writ
! ten when we were off on an editorial ex-
cursion, or killing humming birds with a
breach loader charged with buck shot
that We We're very sorry and would re
tract Immediately. We were delighted
when he passed over the brown paper
having on it matter enough to make a
quartz volume of 100 and some odd
pages. We assured him it would be all
| published the next week, and that we
should be delirious with Joy if he would
send us that much weekly. John Bacon
was hired to cart away poetry from this
office. We were deluged during the win
ter with poetry written on brown paper.
The mans productiveness was immense.
He Wfote SO steadily that he did not get
time to look the papers over, to see if his
illusions were printed. Now we meet
him on every street corner and he wants
copies of the papers in which his poetry
appeared. We have exhausted excuses
and would like to take a trip to Leadville,
If some of our delinquent subscribers
will furnish the collaterals. We had
rather meet tarantula than that poet.
We We're in hopes chat this would be a
severe winter and that poets scantily clad
would not survive it.
