SORT OF PARADoXICAI.
1t was rather entertaining spectacle
to see the men whose business it has
been to record the doings of others get
down themselves to the task of slowing
away edibles and having their own
doings spread out for the delectatiop of
the public. The tables were arranged
lii the form of square, open at one
end and with center-piece extending
down the middle. Opposite the eastern
terminus OF this center-piece was the
head of the table, SO far as it had any
head, and at this point was esconced
William Penn Nixon, of the Chicago
Inter Ocean, the presiding officer of the
entertainment. Then followed the

to the Associated Press, on the follow

his editorial page: This paper is a
member of the Associated Press.'"l
This evidence of loyalty to the organ.
ization was received with hearty cheers
by the company. The toast proposed
by Mr.. Stone was drunk standing, and
many expressions of sympathy for the
sufferer were exchanged among the
gentlemen present. About the time
