Didn't Like the Editor.

A man came into the sanctum

would only be the worse for you,

For the first two or three times we ,li,i mo-.
consider the gravity Of the matter, but finally
became little resti's over Solomon's CON
dition, when it was repeated and emphasized
IN moderate tones, in tenderness and in biob
sounding tones, in trills in shrieks that
Solomon was not arrayed;n and what was
more embarrassing, the singers sometimes
looked and bowed to us, as if we were to
blame for it,
When we reached San Francisco. wa
thought ''this will end this Solomon bust-

there; but, to our amazement, we heard it in
three churches in the occident as well as
orient, chat Solomon was not arrayed.n
In the east there was appropriateness in if
where nobody is much arrayed. But when |
we heard again in Saratoga, on different oc- (
easions, that Solomon was not arraved ;,
from four to six times right along, and in a
manner that could leave no doubt, and when
significant movements of the head were made
at us, we felt that it was time that something
should be done without fail. Let a collection

keep on ringing, too, until some one on the
