Creme de la Creme of News.

Worcester newsboys lowered the rec
ord last evening for the quick disposal
of a large number of extras" But IL
was not extra Spys that disappeared
with such alarming rapidity, but extra
dishes of ice cream. If the man who
invented the smile, Like hot cakes. -
to denote the maximum rapidity of
disappearing things, had only been a
witness of the newsboy banquet at La
Dor hall last evening, he would have
been forced to admit the ineffciency of
his comparison. He would have amend
ed it to read, Went like cold cream. -
But for all that, the cake that went
along with the ice cream was not re
elected.
