cause the audience to wonder that such a
thing could be. She delivered her lines dis

nothing of that machine delivery noticeable
in the vast majority of so-called child
actresses. who simply speak a few lines by
rote. Little Irene last night acted part

ladies and Gentlemen: The great
york of that philosopher and friend of
the modern housewife, Mrs. Hill, is
remarkable for curious omission
The author has abundantly proved
her extensive knowledge of cookery
in her great cook book; yet there is
one thing she signally fails to mon
lion. Had she left out all mention of
Uranberries in connection with tur.
key; had her recipe for oyster soup
contained no oysters, she would have
been thought forgetful; but when
with the JUNCTION of a gastronome, and
the thoughtful skill Of an artist she
marshaIs forth all the Injuries of the
American breakfast table and forgets
10 mention its first necessity, she
shows a sort of ignorance. 1t is true
that in her recipe for cooking a hare
she displays great acumen in advis.
ing that the hare be FIRST caught; but
We put it to her or any ones knowled ge
Of American character whether they
think it possible for any American to
break his fast without his newspaper.
There are few people at least that
can satisfy their digestive organs
Ill their local organ has satisfied
their minds. Some one has observed
that the discovery of the printing
press is the incident that forms the
true separation of the ancient and
MODERN world, opening up a more bril-
liant and wid,r horizon to the genius
man, who from that epoch became
endowed with higher and entirely
different kind of existence. The
history OF the early struggles of
Gutenberg, Faust aud the other early
printers is the history of civilization
and freedom to the masses. Up to
the 10th century trained slaves
sopied all the works required to satisfy
ihe demand for books which were
chiefly the luxuries of churchmen.
Manuscripts of course were very ex.
pensive. A manuscript Bible cost
500 gold crowns. In the fifteenth
century there was revival of learn,

words to which you have listened. We
feel that we are in the hands of our
friends, and that in the language of
that distinguished Texan. whose name
L can scarce pronounce without feel
lngs of emotion, Mr.. Thomas Ochiltree
that if we have met the enemy at all,
we won't know whether they are
ourn or we are theirn.
Instead of taking in Waco, as was
our intention, we have to a certain
degree, been taken in by Waco, as
some of the delegates who will re.
member certain incident of last
mig ut will doubtless bear testimony to.
Our reception and our welcome to
Waco, the home of statesmen and
patriots has been so cordial and so
sincere from the president and mem
bers of Waco Typographical Union
down to the homeless and fraternal
mosquitoes which were in waitiog for
US at the hotel last evening, and who
greeted us with the familiarity of an
old friend, that / feel that these words
cannot do justice to the occasion.
Again we thank the members of the
city council of Waco for lending the
convention the distinguished services
of Waco's city attorney, Hon. John F.
Flint. His address shows familiarity
with the work of our craft, particularly
that part relating to free lunch, as re-
terred to in his address. Great
