d Senator ConLling will not make

-Alr. Conkling is inclined TO believe
that Rhode Island is the pivotal State.

only rehearsal tor her parlor thcat-
rical.
-Thcy arc betting tutor one that
the German tutor was Roscoe Conk-
ling.
Senator Conkling is also opposed
to the administration Of Governor
Spraguc.
--Mr. Conkling can never be Prcsi-
dent. The White House is not That
kind ofa house.
-Conkling is decided beau, and
when he leads the German 'tis pretty
dance indeed.
1t is all mistake. 1 merely went

Mr.. COnkling's terms for teaching
the German language arc very reason
ablc-only $50 month.
-"Das ist ausgcspiclt," said Mr..
Conkling, the German tutor, to Mr..
SpraGuc with the shot gun.
III there is to be an encounter, Mr..
Lamar will doubtless consent to act as
Spraguc's second.
-EX-Senators don't waste powder
on 800 month professors of German.
When Spragrc loaded that gun it was,
us Chandler says, for bar.
.-Conkling used to make q great
virtue Of his never visiting the White
House. But the White House doesn't
now seem specially offended at Mr..
Conkling's neglect.

tor Conkling and the Declaration Of

Is not every one entitled to life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness? And
shall Spraguc intimidatea disciple of

The German professor is bound,
evidently, that he shall have the buck
shot honors belonging to Senator
Conkling. From The pcrsistcncy with
which he thrusts himsclfinto tho affair
it is manifest that he doesn't wish to be
regarded as the missing Linck.
