The Only Dictionary.

There have lately been placed upor
the market several cheap reprints of al
obsolete edition of 'Webster's Dlction
ary." These books are given various
"Webster's Unabridged. The Grea,
Webster's Dictionary" ''Webster's big
Dictionary "Webster's Encyclopedia
Dictionery,' etc, etc.
Many announcements concerning
them are misleading. The Webster re.
print portion of each from A to z is
the same-forty-s years behind the
times, and printed from plates made by
photographing the old pages.
The old book has been padded out
by various additions culled from
various sources but the body is the
same that was published when Polk
was president and duly buried at the
incoming Of Lincoln. The Webster,
current from Lincoln to Harrison, is
the popular copyrighted unabridged"
which has recently been superseded d
by WEBsTERs INTERNATIONAL DIcTIoN-
ARy.-See advertisement in another

NEARLY three years ago the Pueblo
Press slandersd the doubtful stock in
trade Of couple of hot tamale men and
made the men so much hotter than
their tamales that they sued the Press
for $1,000 damages Plaintiffs were
defeated in the district court but took
an appeal to the court Of appeals which
rendered verdict this week reversing
the decision of the lower court. Un-
less the composition of the tamales has
improved wonderfully in the last three
years it is hard to see how the Press
can retract the slander on that Mexican
delicacy without laying itself open to
the charge of libelling the truth.

THE Patriot, the scurrilous little rat
sheet run over on Routt avenue by
the notorious c. F. Mechler is no more
The rodent appeared just one dozen
issues and then crswled in its hole and
died. 1t was the intention of the
Patriot to raise up this end of town
perceptibly, but how well its vaulting
ambition has been realized is seen in
its timely death. The INDICATORS
warning to the public to beware of the
rat was not thrown away, and this

The Humble Tomale.

In November, 1891, the Pueblo
Press published an elaborate treatise
on the tomale. 1t attacked not only
the tomsle, but the vendors and manu-
features thereof. or the lunch itself it
stated that it was made of rotten and
poisonous meat" and of "hotel offsl and
other vile meats mixed with veal"
1t slandered the chicken in the tomale
by saying that it was 1.-The offal of
Thanksgiving meals at private resi-
dences, hotels and restaurants" This,
quite naturally, incensed the manu-
tacturers, Henry Craig and j. D. Sexton,
who were described in the article as
"dagos," and they began suit in the
district court to recover 5000 in
damages. The court held that the evil
dence was not sufficient and verdict
for the defendant was entered. Yester-
day in the court of appeals the judg-
ment was reversed.-Denver News,
