so it is only fair that the brand OF
Cain be placed upon the forehead
where it belongs-that is upon Cain,
the reporter who made the blunder.
A Topeka lady who pays close at
tention to the classics also caught the
days ago and gave the correct quota
ton. All three of these caustic critics
have offered to buy a copy of khay-
yam for the newspaper man, but the
latter begs them not to inflict further
punishment for so small a crime. He
has a copy of the writings of the wool
gathering philosopher from Persia,
and surely one is enough.
1t is too bad. All the newspaper
boys liked Judge Buckman but the
latter did not reciprocate. This will
probably be the last straw.
