No While the fighting editor
sat in the sanctum Tuesday night solil.
quizing on the events Of the past and
prospects Of the future, there came from
afar what appeared to be the blood
%curdling sounds Of Il pack of ferocious
beasts, who were evidently in deep dis
tress. or in omniverous hunger were zap.
vciously devouring some victim which
had unfortunately fallen their prey
The hideous sounds broke the stiffness
OF the clear atmosphere all to pieces,
and as they seemed to approach, the
scribe aroused himself from his sominc.
ulous attitude and the first idea which
suggested itself was that he had been
suddenly called from this world of sor.
row, and was experiencing his introduc-
ton to tho lower regions. On and on
came the ungodly tempest Of wild and
heart stopping yells. The scribe became
Mortified with fright. His blood was
CONCEALED with approaching terror. His
heart ceased to beat and flew to his
throat. His fingers clutcked the quill
with u death like grip. At last he rec.
ognized a human voice; then his fears
began to subside, and the mysterious
sounds were known to emulate from
human beings. 1t was no dream. The
matter was explained by the appearance
OF a body OF our representative young
men known as the "Gooseander Sere.
naders." The hitherto unwelcome
sounds were now modulated into sweet
strains OF melodious harmony, and as the
serenaders came down to the office the
scribe leaned back in the easy back ed.
itorial chair and listened to a score of
new and popular songs such as "Swanee
River" "After the Ball. "Man IN the
Moon" "Doxology." etc.
