MAC AND THE HAT.

Bro. Nc Farlane Of the Daily News
has charged us with wearing straw hat
out of season, and furthermore that it is
a last years hat. We have always been
governed by weather conditions and not
by the calendar in changing our raiment,
aud, therefore, plead guilty to the first
count. But we deny with vehemence
the second count. The hat is brand
new one, bought and paid for this
spring AS for our old hat, we had
thought of donating it to Mac and that
Mac had an eye on the hat is fact that
now stands out plainly. He mistook a
new hat for last years pate covering.
This proves conclusively that he coveted
the old hat
