1860 he was brought low with sickness,
and he made solemn VOW that if he got
well he would quit lying He recovered,
and as soon as able to be about he frank,

Some of the boys could hardly believe
in the strange occurrence. and so one
night when he had the head of sugar

asked: &+-a

The old man felt that he was losing

had made plenty men believe. and he wa
becoming very uneasy, but this was on
more question. The interrogation LOOKED

Dennis Kearney, the great wind bag of

Union of New York. on Sunday The
Union sat down on Dennis. They re
fused to listen to Dennis. They invited
Dennis to leave He did leave A motion
was made that Dennis be allowed to blow

voted down-38 to. 10. The sooner
Kearney goes back to the sand lots, the
better. The snub which Kearney met
with in New York, on Sunday, shows that
Dennis has lost his pull, and that the
