SToP carly street sweeping.
THE CRITIC knocked the constitutional
lawyer of the Post out in one round of less
than q minute.
BUSINESS men have rights that the
street sweepers should be made to respect.
That pub. func. should be compelled to
sweep only after 0 o'clock p m.
WHEN George Bliss first came here he
was content to board at the rate of $i.5O a

get his bills through he hired parlor at
the rate of SO day.
STANDING order at the Gas office: Take
of some of those candles; give 'em short
twelves, instead of long sixteens. We

THE day that Judge Edmunds was elected
President pro temporc of the Senate The
CRITIC, in capitol note, suggested to him

officer has done as ordered and the restau-
rant is again open to bidders.

Colley, says
There was great objection made when the
parties were married by the wife's family, but
1t availed nothing.
Never knew before that 'the wife's fam
ilyn was authorized to celebrate marriages.
Thought only minister or magistrate was
so authorized.
