Glowing News Paragraphs from the Zen
tire of Semi Civilization Recorded In
Words That Burn.
ESeRine Bel.
The following clippings are from the Har-
ney Hooter, one of the most priced OF the
Bells many exchanges:
There are cuts of the Chicago Anarchists
on our inside this week.
The parties who threw the old, rotten
had smelling turnip at us while we were
returning to our home at a late hour last
Tuesday night might have been in better
business.
We give notice to the sickly and weak
winded boy who makes a dwelling at
tempt to run the disgusting opposition
sheet, the Harvey Ho,cler, that We have
been very busy with job work this week.
Our business men know where to get good
work. How do you like it, sonny? We
again want to place on record a prediction
that the weak and wobbly career Of the
HorIer, is almost ended.
Numerous inquiries were made concern
ing us last Saturday, and much specula-
ton INDUCED in as to why we were not at
our office or seen on the street. The cause
was this: While at Jim Houck's popular
Palace saloon, we learned of a fendish plot
to blow up our Office with dynamite. We
instantly communicated the intelligence to
the city authorities, and proceeded rapidly
home. where we stayed till we learned
that the vile plan had been frustrated.
Thus another cowardly attempt to dow
us fails.
We are panied to nnoun that our
greatly respected fellOw-citizen, Captain
Thomas H. Howard, died at his handsome
residence on Coteau street early yesterday
morning. He was universally liked. The
c~oroner's jury had not returned a verdict
up to the time OF going to press. He was
a kind husband and IN indulgent father.
He was an old subscriber to the Hooter and
has paid eight months in advance. His
family will continue TO receive the paper
regularly.
We deem q word Of explanation due our
readers in regard to an item published in
last weeks HOOter. 1t stated that our
worthy fellow-citizen, Judge Ezra h. u
Ter, had been arrested and bound over for
getting drunk and riding up and down the
street on a mule he had stolen from u negh-
Dor and shooting right and left, and wound
| ing several persons. There was a slight
error in the item, rs it should have read
that ..''Baldy'' Ford was the man that
was arrested and our esteemed. Judge Full
Ter, the justice before whom he was
arraigned. We cheerfully make the
correction. In the hurry of getting the
forms to press for a large paper like the
Hootey, small Typographical errors like tins
will sometimes occur, and no one regrets
them more than ourselves.
The gallant COLONEL Brayson of this city
took a slight oflense ut a little uninten-
tional item thai we inserted in the last is
sue of the H0Otcr, and fired two shots
through our window. Fortunately for us
neither took effect. The Colonel comes OF
some of the best families of Virginia and
is naturally spirited and quick to resent
an insult. If the genial colonel desires 1t
we would he pleased to print an apology,
though we can assure him no insult was
intended. As we both will continue to re-
side in Harvey we hope to live on good
terms with him.
It has come to our ears that Bill Arnold,
a co~wardly, cringing sneak who has hung
around this city for sometime, claimed to
be dissatisfied with 4 statement made in
our paper for last week concerning him,
and went around the streets Monday tell
ing people that he didn't like it. We take
this manner of informing the sneaking, dis
reputable pup that he does not want to re-
peat the performance. If he don't like any
| thing we have said about him he can keep
his mouth shut. We should have called
him TO account for his u]ttcranccs before
this, but he jumped the town the next
day and has gone to his former home i'll
Ohio to reside in the future. The dastardly
cur had better remain there, for if he ever
comes back here we shall make it warm for
him.
