Sioli Oh Tie luce OF the new reporter.
"Huh-they took me and threw me out int
the street and set the dog on me- said tn
young reporter. at the same time unwrappin
the newspapers and exhibiting the wrecl
beneath.
Can you write anything about the game p
asked the city editor.
mo, they didn't give me time to see any
hing
well. you go around to the lack door O
the Ryan hotel and ask them for something
to eat and then write up your experiences
as ragged tramp. 1 will see that you get an
order on the office for new suit of clothing,
which will be taken out of your salary. You
need a new suit"
But the article never appeared. The young
reporter wrote to friend and asked to have
his valise sent to Chicago, where he had OBJ
tanned position in a restaurant.

There was suspicious glitter about the nap
of the tall hat which he wore, and his clothes
shone in the sun from the effects of many
polishings by the tailor and repairer. His
shoes were in need of coat of blacking,
and his gloves were worn out at the tips
His hair would have presented q better ap-
pearance If the barber had BEEN called in to
take few inches off it and on his face was
growth which denoted that he and the ton
serial artist had not held communion for
many days. He ambled into the office of the
GLOBE, and under his arm was the fatal roll
of paper.
Editor in?' he asked with a comprehen-
siye look at the reporter. who was engaged
in writing. He evidently knew, from the fact
that the man he addressed was working, that
he was not the editor. He was told that the
editor was out and he then took a chair,
which stood conveniently near, and COM
menced unrolling the paper which had
nestled under his arm.
Now [ wish to show this to you, not for
criticism, but to give you d chance to see a
good thing which l have composed. You
may read it if you desire"
He was told that an immense pressure OF
business would prevent all immediate enjoy
ment of the intellectual repast but if he
cared TO leave it, the GLOBE man would be
pleased to enjoy it later on.
''Ha! you are like the rest" he replied, as
he started for the door. You will always re
greet that you missed it. l will say farewell
with regret that youth is SO lacking in COM
prehension of the great"
AS he went out he dropped slip of paper
from the roll. and on 1T was written:
Borrowed from Whltelaw Reid, 30 cents;
President Harrison, Is cents; from j. j. HILL
10 cents, etc.

A few days ago young man. accompanied
by pretty girl who wore bonnet decorated
with pink roses, called at the residence of a
minister who lives on the West side. He
asked if he could see the minister, and when
that individual admitted them to the sitting
room, said they desired to get married. The
minister rubbed his hands in prospect of
fee, and after few short preliminaries the
bride and groom were placed in the center of
the ROOM the members of the family gath
cred around, and the ceremony was started
81 suppose YOU believe in marrying for
love, said the young man in jocular man
ner TO the minister.
Il certainly do,' was the reply.
Let 'er go them" said the young man, as
he felt in his pockets for the ring.
The ceremony was quickly performed. and
the young man started to put on his gloves
again. As they neared the door, not a word
had been said as to a fee, the young man
said:
I'm glad you believe in marrying for love.
Susy and have but little money for starting
and we are glad that you be-
lieve in marrying for love Alone
'I-I-I-think there is some mistake-I-P'
But they had disappeared in the darkness.

pretty miss was coming down Third
street yesterday afternoon in all the glory of
a new spring suit, ribbons and flowers, and
fat, wheezy little pug dog, which she led by a
long ribbon.
Up Third street walked a young man look
ing into the windows for the purpose of
noting the effect Of his new Spring overcoat.
He wore silk hat carried cane, and dan
gled pair of yellow gloves in one hand.
He was looking i'll at the window, and the
young lady was looking across the street
where milIiner displayed a number of ex.
traordinary styles in headwear The dog
was ampling along in d self-satisied manner,
and Just as they were passing on the side
walk the dog espied another animal in the
street. He made sudden rush for the
loose dog the ribbon caught the young man
around the knees. and then the animal re-
turned to the side of his mistress, but not be-
fore he had made the circuit with the ribbon
OF the young mans legs. He tried to free
himself from the surrounding influences OF
the ribbon, the dog tried to get around, some.
where, anywhere out of the way. The young
lady screamed, blushed and tried to loosen
her pet and the young man laughed in an
aggravating manner.
Finally the dog made sudden rush be-
tween his legs, the ribbon held fast and he
tried tojump out of the way, but there was
sudden mingling of young man, ribbon and
log which was sight to see. He sat on his
new hat the light-colored coat was dis
,olored from contact with the sidewalk, and
when he got to his feet he swore audibly
The young lady hid her bushes and con-
fusion in a neighboring store, and the young
nan made for the nearest saloon. The
crowd enjoyed it immensely.

One of the members of the Grand stock
company had an amusing and rather excit-
ng experience the other morning, but she
has SO far kept it from being printed.
She stops at one of the large hotels, and on
coming home after the theater she decided
hat she would have bath. 1t is unueces-
ary to enumerate the manner in which she
prepared for it, but she did not leave any
operative garments on as she slid out of
Ter parlor and into the bath room on the
ioor below.
She gloried in the bath and remained there
or some time. 1t was delightful, and she
ell greatly benefited from the contact with
he cold water which made her rosy flesh
low and her eyes to shine. After the bath
vas completed she started for her room
gain.
LET me see. what is the number of my
oom?'' she asked herself in perplexed
manner
1t was no use trying to think. She thought
nd thought, she went up one hall and down
mother until she was tired and frightened at
he prospects of meeting some one. Finally
n Inspiration struck her, and she returned
o the bath room, where bell was located.
The bell boy and the night clerk had good
ugh over the affair. 1t did not take them
ong to discover the number of the room oc-
upied by Miss -. She has declared that
whenever she leaves her room again she will
axe the key with her.
