In the report of a "swell wedding"
it was written; "Her dainty feet

but the compositor made it read
"shoes that might have been taken

The Newport correspondent of
the Boston Post says: "Some Of
the handsome maidens who are cele-
brating their entry into society this
season are from Boston. Boston
girls, as a rule, are noted for their

and manageable members of New
York, Philadelphia and Baltimores
best families, then the latter will miss
the opportunity Of their lives"
Now, this is shameful. Cannot Bos,

One of the transparencies contalned u
first rate rough portrait of Hancock
and English. Devices giving a vivid
conception of the records of Hancock
and Garfield were portrayed on several
transparancies. The record of Arthur

that patriot as he appeared when
kicked out of the New York Custom
House for corruption in office and
falling into the arms OF Conkling. The
fifth device represented Columbia
discarling Garfield from her service.

of Radicalism was depicted by bay
