to enlist with the boys in blue. But
the contingent to be accepted was

ever, and so slowed away on the Pc

Mr.. Watkins recent criticism OF
university address is deserved. The
custom of substituting professional
speakers i'm place Of the boyish ora
tiOns and school gir.ish essays from
the most talented members OF the
senior class is not altogether satisfac-
tory. In the first place the profess
siOnal speakers are not good looking.
They are grizzled or Laldheaded and
youth has fled them long since. The
class is TRANSPORTED by youth and
newly won accomplishments, their
future is mysterious. Hope, joy,
and beauty are their Wallets, who have
dressed them in the latest thing in
waiStcOatS. collars. coats, trousers and
gowns. 1t is Hyperion to satyr and
we are not going to stand il much
longer. There are plenty Of Oppor-
tunities to hear the celebrities, but

aunts and sisters, will never see our

some, chic relatives i'm the act Of
graduating from this particular insti-
tuition again. 1t would be just as sen.
sible and just as appropriate if 1t
were legal for bride and bridegroom
to select two elOcutiOnists to pro-
nOunce the words Of the wedding
ceremony for them, because they
know where and how to emphasize,
and because they can make the sylla-
bles round and full and audible i'm the
furthest corner of the church. Were
this the custom policemen would be
unnecessary to keep strangers out of the
church. Cut and dried preparations
are of no special interest to any Of us,
especially when they interpOse be-
tween something young, beautiful and
eager related to us by blood. The
hesitation and stage fright of the
gallant clustering boys is far more
worth seeing than the polished gestures
of the most distinguished orators, who
are all very well i'm their place, which
is not the center of the stage on COM
mencement day.
Some of the speakers who have
spoken to the graduating classes of
the Nebraska state university have
underestimated the intelligence and
culture of a western audience. Among
those who did not were DIR. Duryea
and President Angel of Ann ArbOr.
The mistake is acOmmOn one. The
English conceive all Americans except
those who have been sophisticated

COWBOYS and Indians. New Workers
and New EnglanderS bitterly resent
being placed in what they believe
truthful picture of the west. The
error of the Atlantic coast people is
objectionable for they continually

people do think us woody there is re-
curing evidence. No protests or ex-

OOM-PAH'S GHOST.
BY Tom p. Morgan.

I never will consider IL fair treat

because he happens to be a somnam-
bulist. When the said rail is three
cornered one, adorned with sundry
long, pitiless splinters, feel that the
unfairness of the proceedings is still
more pronounced. There are times
when a plain, common, two-legged hu-
man finds himself in a position to en-
Wy the martyrs OF old. 1t is true that
soma of them were fatally toasted or
treated to cobble stone baths, but his

and as l was not fatally bifurcated,
do not know as 1t is worth while for
me to get mentally red-headed over
the matter. Still, l feel pretty sore
over II yet.
The reader Is doubtless familiar with
the legend of the boys and the frogs.
After the former, in their innocent
glee, had stoned the latter for an hour
and half, an oratorical frog, with
green waistcoat and a dyed mustache,
mounted a stump, threw away his CT
gar and announced that, while frog
stoning might be fun for the boys, he
felt warranted in saying that it was
Gehenna on the frogs. In the excit-
ing whirl of events that followed the
last appearance of Oom-Pah's ghost, l
was, figuratively speaking, the frog.
The primeval cause of all the trou-
BILE was my smartness. l am not to
blame for having been born smart, and
/ don't think it ought to be held up
against me as it is.
This, one Of the most exciting times
Of my freckled-I mean checkered-
career, happened while was corre-
spondent of the Daily RaZooper. The
paper was always in want Of sensa-
tons, and was ready to pay literally
to have the hair Of it's readers raised.
Oom-Pah's grave, and the memories
that lowered about it, suggested TO
to me an opportunity Of elevating the
hair Of the Razooper's readers and
causing ripples Of shivers to chase
each other up and down the corruga-
lions of their spines.
The late Mr.. Oom-Pah, while prom.
inent member of the WawHoo tribe
of Indians had been largely engaged
in the butchering business, and by
never neglecting, nor appearing to feel
above, his chosen profession, he al
ways did a land Office business in ex-
tracing scalps with neatness and dis
patch. OomPah was hard worker,
and, with the Scriptures, believed that
the laborer is worthy Of his hair.
If Oom-Pah had displayed a little
less impartiality, he might have car
ried on business at the old stand for
a good while longer than he did. But
he finally got to operating too near
home, and this led to his demise at
the hands of friend, Mr.. Ta-Ra-Dum,
from quite a distance up the creek.
This was how it happened One day,
after having looked upon our friend,
the enemy, when it was red, Oom-Pah,

feeling very rich, and stepping re-
markably high, started out to make
good Indians of all corners. After he
had attended to his mother-in-law and
several small families, he ran up
against Ta-Ra-Dum, who was no
SLOUGH at the butcher business him
self. He fell upon Oom-Pah and laid
him low. (Any real bright reader, de-
sirous Of making joke that will be
liable to get him six months on the
public rock pile, can say that, though
all his life Oom-Pah had been 10"
the gentleman from up the creek laid
him lower than he had ever been be-
fore.)
They laid Oom-Pah to rest in a Sc
cluded corner of what afterward be-
came Onion township, and there he
remained till l came along with my
little pen and raised his ghost and sent

umns of the Daily Razooper. / felt
that / was safe In using Oom-Pah's
ghost as thriller, for had no inten-
tion OF playing ghost and getting my
self disliked as had done with pre-
vious sensation, when, letting go all
holds on truth and veracity, had,
with the aid OF the Razooper, turned a
wild man loose in Onion township,
and afterward getting myself mistaken
for said wild man, had been shameful
ly maltreated.
So, having no fear, wrote CHASTITY,
shivery, shuddery account of the al
legged appearance of the ghost of Oom-
Pah. and proved 1t. too. over the sig
natures OF the lightning rod agents.
The public read and believed, and the
oldest inhabitant and biggest liar VOW
ed he had seen the spook spoolIing
about in the vicinity of the grave. Ac-
cordlng to the Razooper, and the old
est inhabitant, this was no common,
everyday ghost, of modest mien and
unossvsning manners, but bold, bad
spirit, with every appearance of being
on HIS muscle.
