thusly:
Audubon is blessed(?) with a
genuine speciman of the Genus
Homo called the dude. At the club
and at the rink, this winter, he has
several times tried to play the dead
beat act. His last and browning
act, however, was performed last
Saturday night. He had engaged
the company of one Of Audubon's
fairest and best to attend the lecture
of Hon. S. P. Leland. In procuring
his tickets he purchased one full
ticket and one half ticket. Just
which one he intended the halt
ticket for we do not know, whether
it was for himself or lady, so we will
not pretend to say. In presenting
his tickets at the door he very care

keeper followed him in with mes
senger desiring to straighten the
matter and pay him the difference
but he refused to comply, and it was
not until Tuesday afternoon anc

Quite a lively time was had at

to keep a young man in for disobey-

mustered his forces under the guild
ance OF his pa and marched to the
school house four strong and pro-
posed to meet out vengeance on
Turner. The captain called Mr.. T..
out and laid off his coat while his
band gathered close around him.
Turner began to think something
had to be done and proceeded to
draw his little sword jack knife,
and declared himself ready for battle,
whereupon the braves retreated. No
blood was split but terrible amount
of "gas" was lost. We have since
heard that Mr.. Turner has had two
of the parties arrested.
