An Unfounded, False and
Malicious lnsinuation.

To the Home Journal
Referring to the article written by
me, and published in the Home Jour
nal Of last week, and the one from the
9Th over the signature, "Amicus," the
la,pyer says: 81 do not believe that w.
l. Cherry is the author of the article
which appears over his signature. This
article and the one purporting to come
from the ninth district were probably
written by the same person, and this
person was probably man who Processes
to be teacher Of the religion Of Christ. I"
"Probably."
Probably" you have made as wild a
guess as you did when you guessed at the
meaning of the school law. l can
trmhfuuy assert that no one has ever
written or dictated single article that
has appeared in the columns Of any pa
per over my signature except myself.
As to "Amicus," | k,,op that he is not
the man at whom you cast your insinua-
tons.
And now, sir, am truly glad that
you have at last found out that ridicule
is not argument, and that passion is an
evidence of weakness. l hope you will
lay aside ridicule and endeavor to
strengthen yourself up before yon bring
on another attack. for am tired of rid
icule which "purports' to be argument.
But, il your spleen must have vent,
event" it on me. Don't be afraid that
l will cast any ungentlemanly insinua-
tons upon any of your friends or rettt-
tives. No, III not "violate the rule
which prohibits everything of a personal
nature in discussions between gentle
men," by casting any ungentlemanly in
situations upon any of your relatives.

beautiful law of Compensation He
has made to operate upon all, has given

The Home Journal would not cra,Ul, like

to know where toput her. They looked
at the other passengers with scorn, and
seemed, without exactly asking, to de-

Guiteau's Ghost.


Warden Croker, of the district
jail says he is not yet fee from the
Guiteau business. Often some
cranky prisoner in the Jail decla res
he saw Guiteau in a vision, and a
night or two ago prisoner confined
in an adjoining corridor of the same
wing in which the famous assassin
was Gagged created comlnotion in
the Jail at midnight by shouting that
he had just seen Guiteau. He could
not be induced to think he was dclu-
