Not in Need Of Sympathy.

Denver Letter to Louisville Courier journal
On the train there was woman with
three children, aged respectively five, seven
and nine. wondered what could induce a
sane woman to start on a journey with such
membranes. pictured her as a widow
who was being shipped West to her friends.
l dwelt upon her past with a sort of morbid
satisfaction; turned a riotous imagination
loose among her misfortunes, and presently,
being weary of the silence had preserved
for several hundred miles, went over to
condole with her. Conceive, if you can, my
disgust when / learned that she was en-
route to circus about 80 miles distant, bent
on giving those urchins holi day. She in
formed me in the course of conversation that
the trip would cost her 500 altogether, but
she had cleared $1,000 on her rancho In Ne
braska, last year, and felt that she could af-
ford holiday. Whenever l have noticed a
woman with one baby at theater or any
other place of amusement have invariably
regarded it as an incipient case of insanity;
but when l found this woman with her
three babies going 'feighty miles to cir
GUS" was dumb. These Nebraska women
are not remarkable for their beauty, but
they certainly don't lack nerve. This one
was evidently not suffering for sympathy,
and / went back to my place and the rapidly
dissoving views of the most monotonous
country under heaven.

Governor Hampton wants the office let him
