Horace Greeley was right when he
said: 1t is strange how closely men
read the newspapers. We never say
anything that men don't like, but we
soon hear it and everybody tells us
about it. If, however, we happen to
say good thing, we never hear of that
| nobody seems to notice it. We pass
some man hundred compliments and
give him dozen puffs, and he takes it
us a tribute of his greatness never
thinks it does him any good. But if we,
happen to say anything this man
doesn't like, or something he imagines
a election on his character, see how
quickly he fires up and gets excited
about it. AL our evils are charged to
us, out we never apparently, get any
credit for the work we do"
An amusing item for the next
number of the Kemper Hall KOd0k
would be an exposure" of the pie eat
ing contest between three of the young
ladies of the Hall which occurred on
he street one day this week. The girls
had evidently clipped in" and

than to eat pie with a knife or on the
street, but it was sort Of picnic for
tnem-and there's no harm done.
The two boys, Frank Metten and

tickets to New York and were prepar-
ing to so when detective saw Them
on the street. He noticed at once that
they looked like strangers and he ac-
costed them asking them where they
were going. They told him New York.
The detective thought it rather re-
markable that boys of that age should
start on journey so far away unat-
tended and SO he played rather a clever
little ruse on the boys. He noticed
that Metten was red headed and that
there was a slight. bruise under one of
his eyes, so he remarked that he guess
ed he had telegram telling him to ar
rest two boys, Zone with red hair and
a bruise under the right eye. Then he
told them he would have to hold them
until he got further instructions.
This scared the Boys thoroughly and
they told everything they knew, which
led to the telegram to Mr.. Mcdowell
here. There was still about $50 in
