A little girls appetite and reporters
cheek are the ingredients OF the latest sensa-
ton.
The panorama of the Battle of Atlanta will
give away souvenirs Tuesday next. 1t would
seem as though the Lasting impression" that
visitors carry away with them would be suffi-
Gent souvenirs.
Several local papers have revamped the
story about Annabel Langan losing her appe-
lite, which was used as a sensation by the
La Crosse papers some months ago. 1t seems
that the little girl is visiting friends at 025
Twenty-first avenue south, in company with
her mother, and that through some chronic
disease of the stomach, last February she lost
her appetite, but afterwards recovered it
without being compelled to advertise IN the
want columns of the papers which seek TO
place her before the public as freak.
There is appearing in the Orphans Friend
a series OF articles from a pungent writer
wearing the nom de plume of Kate who
has this to say, incidentally, of the Irish:
Here now is the most singular freak of
human nature; we Irish ought to be pros
porous people in this land of freedom. To
raise up an exiled people and make them free
and happy-to promote amongst them tenn
perance-and cultivate and teach them how
to preserve honor, truth and justice, is the
MODEST work God ever entrusted to a human
being; yet, I say it with bowed head and
bated BREATH the hero who strives for this,
must seek his laurelS when head and hand
have both grown cold in death.
1.-The veriest Fogartian politician with his
slop-tub of denominations can win the race
before many an Irish audience when his an
tagonst true and tried by years of patient
labor for their good, will be thrown down
upon the track and kicked, defiled and booted
as if he were their worst enemy.
1.-The task of the reformer is thankleSs
one-often alone and unfriended, with his
motives misconstrued and his best efforts
foiled he goes his way in solitude amid the
crowd; well for him if his stay and support
be in one who knows no change. But enough
of moralizing; woman's heart goes out in
sympathy to every sufferer for right and bids
him God speed.''
J. z. SHIRLEY last evening wiped the per-
spiratiOn from his brow and soliloquized as
follows: 81 don't know whether the poetry
business pays or not. 1 had a few copies of
my Ames campaign song struck off to circu-
late among the boys. Then the GLOBE got
hold of it and printed it. The next thing
Tom MCGOWAN telegraphed from Duluth for
1000 copies. Then Ehle Allen sent over for
500. A man has just been here from the
Milwaukee car shops. He wanted 100 or was
going to fight. Well, he got 'em. I've done
nothing all day but give out copies of the
song. 1 have paid out SIS for printing, and
I'd like to know where it's going to end,'' but
Ames will be governor, 1 really do believe.
At the performance of the 'Mikado'' last
night Ko-Ko took occasion, in his patter
song, to satiricay allude to the necessity of
a grand opera company coming down to the
''Mikado." Well, seeing that "Lucretia
Borgia'' and Crispino'' were sung to beggarly
audiences and ''Mixado' to damned house,
the fall was not so lamentable, after all.
