On some of the ladies now I'll calf,
And the first I'll visit is Mrs. Tidbaii;
She is iaudlady at the hotel,
And She handles the servants real we'll.
She came from Virginia some time ago,
To take charge of the hotel, YOU know;
She is a perfect lady in every respect,
Aud her boarders She doesu't neglect.
Mrs. Crutcher is first ON Coolidge avenue.
Aud is a lady I've had no introduction TO:
They moved here some three tour months ago,
Aud very little can can say of her, you know.
On Mrs Bickics now let me call.
I've known her since away last fail;
She is kind and clever to one aud all,
Aud loves TO watch the boys play ball.
She visits the we'll, the sick she will nurse,
Aud oftimes helps them with her purse;
She is neither naughty, proud nor vain,
But dresses neat, nice aud plain.
Miss Bessie Dromhelier Is boarding there,
Aud to pass her 10y would not dare;
She has pretty eyes we'll as hair
Aud pretty dress l see her wear.
She is the Hello Girl' the boys do saw.
And some would call heI forty times a day:
But she won't have II by the way,
As she hasn't time with them 10 play.
To Mrs. Fariey's now I'm going,
Ana see tnc DdoN, II IL - groWtug;
1t Is growing nice aud is pretty A. pin<s,
Just like its mamma the DIR thinks.
Well, Mrs. Reece will now consult,
As she has something over which to exult;
Mrs Reece is such nice, pleasant lady,
I'd rather talk with her than play with the baby.
In the next house Mrs. Starkey you find,
She appears TO be clever, good and kind:
She has several boarders, so | understand,
Al
hand.
| guess I'll speak to Mrs. Paxton uou,
| As see her out milking The COW;
Good evening, Mrs. Paxton, a very utce day,
So it is, she said, and kept milking away.
! To Mrs. Syers, now let go,
For she is a woman you should know;
She received prcgi um some time ago,
As the prettest lady at the show.
When in company or work,
ON her face she wears a smirk,
That wins her many a friend
And the will of husband bend.
With Mrs. Carson I'm scarcely acquainted,
But she is lady and not just painted;
To Sunday School and church she goes,
She is an excellent woman every body knows.
At the Huff resssde deuce now I'll CALL
There are two, one fleshy theqther tall;
Mrs Hnff is newly made bride,
And with her sister-in-law does abide.
Miss Motley Huff is the fleshy lady,
A nd III tell you she is baby;
She will weigh close to two hundred poands;
But for ali that she flies around.
Miss Wallace is the lady that teaches our shool,
Aud a weeks vacation she takes at YuIe;
She is an excellent teacher, so / hear,
And is liked by some most awfulIy dear.
There is Mrs. wetzel who lives on Trace,
You may always know that pleasant face;
She was around the other day
Making collection for ergau they say.
Mrs. Inkrote j must mention,
For she is worthy of attention.;
Sine very sick few days ago,
But is better now, I'm glad TO know.
Mrs. Pool is excellent lady,
A nd she has a very sweet baby;
IL is four or i've months old so they say,
A nd just the proper size TO play.
There is Miss Josie Fowler now see,
Just as busy as she be;
Mrs Starkey says she is staying there,
A nd for the boys she doesn't care.
OF other ladies' wouid love to speak,
But must wait a1Other week;
Aud some iuformz tion seek.
For am getting rather weak.
Well, must chsnge my tone a little as wish
TO inform some of my friends who are not here,
that We have a very sick lady ia town al present

poorly, but 1t is hoped she will be better in a
few days.
Mr.. Pennau, the mine boss, met with very
bad accident a f.w days ago. While in the
mine he te'f IA bOie ct water and di .iOcItei
his ankle aud his iViuries were very u,iufu,
bnt the DR.. says no bones were broken. He has
many frieads here aud is missed from among
them very much. Il is hoped by the many
friends Of tie sick that ere write again their
