ey. that Colonel Hinnery, tn man that

cage has moved on. l suppose they'll give
the Cap new thrile now"
Il hope they won't" said Mr.. Hennissy.
II don't know anything about 1t, but I
think he's guilty. He's a Jew"
"Well," said Mr.. Dooley. ''yere thoughts
on this subject is inthrestih, but not con-
elusive, as Darsey said to tn Pollack that
thought he cud lick him. Ye have right
to yere opinion, an yell hold 1t anyhow,
whether ye have a right to or not. Like
most iv yere fellow citizens. yez are i'm
partial. Ye don't know anything about
tn case. If ye knew anything ye'd not
