GAN ANGEL IN TowN.-Wednes-
day afternoon last, as we had the Of
flee towel in the yard and were trying
to soften it up bit with a sled stake,
Mrs. Judge Wharton made her ap-
pearance in the Office and sweetly ex-
claimed: 'Peek-a-boo ! see you
hiding there ? She had come to in
vite us to a select soiree at her
mansion the following evening. Only
the leading people of the city were
there, and it was an occasion long to
be remembered. There were music,
dancing and cards, and we recited one
of our poems.
"a few weeks ago The Kicker had
occasion to observe that Judge Whar-
ton was an old bum drunkard and no
more fit for the bench than hog is

said Mrs. Judge used to be waiter
girl in saloon in st. Louis, and that
she could not get into good society
here.
"We have discovered that we have
done the worthy couple gross injus.
tice, and we now wish to publicly
apologize. The Judge is not only a
temperance man to the core, but one
of the best authorities on legal juris-
prudence in the country. His wife
is the daughter Of New York mil
lionaire, and was never in st. Louis
in her life. The Judge has subscrib-
ed for The Kicker, and we hope this
apology, coming as it does from the
heart, may set the estimable couple
right in public estimation. Arizona
