 Whats become iv yer friend, Jack Binns?" asked Mir Dooley.
 "Who?" said Mir. Hennessey.
 "Oho." said MT. Dooley, "so we've frgotten him already, have ye? An 'tis on'y a week or two ago that ye were in here quarrelin. with me be- cause I wudden't set thim up fr tn house in his honor.
 Well, there's On'y wan thing that wud make me allow mesilf to be a hero to tn American people an that is it don't last long. A few columns in tn newspaper. speech in congress, assault an batthry be a mob on tn sthreet, a flatthrin' offer firm a dime mussm, an thin ye sink back into tn discard an are not mintiOned again onless ye get into jail. whin ye have a more extinded notice thin yer crime entities ye to.
 oh, as Hogan says, why shud tn spirit av mortal be proud? Manys tn hero I've known in me day-gin- rals. admirals. polismen, firemen. prize fighters. pedesthreens, bicycle riders, actors. authors, cOnkerers iv thirty quails in thirty days, an where are they now. I'll ask ye? Down in tn coal celler iv tn Hall iv Fame with tn rest iv us polthroons.
 "Histhry will do thim justice, says ye2 Ye needn't be too sure about that Don't make any foolish bets on histhry Like a good many people that I know tn Muse of Histhry. as Hogan wud say, has a long mim'ry but 'tis inacc'rate Iris lige a cousin iv mine that cud reminder things that happened forty years ago. but they were niver so. A little while ago there was a feller came over here that wrote a histhry iv Rome. This country they tell me is like Rome an is goin' to have tn same ending because ix tn large Eyetalian population in both.
 Anyhow all I know about Rome is what Hogan has told me, an he was always bOastin' up JoOlyus Cayzar to me. I got an idee firm Hogan's talk that Joolyus CayZar was a fine man, a little gay, mind ye, wid tn ladies, but a fine man. An Hogan cud al most make me cry tellin' me about his death. It seems that he was warned iv what was comin'. Tn night before a comet appeared in tn sky. but he cud not believe it had anythin' to do with him. An no more Wud I.

This is tn little matter I mintiOned last week says tn invious Casia, jabbin' him in tn ribs. T am afraid ye'er man is not illegible,' says Cayzar.
 This wint on rr some time, wan sinitor afther another takin' part in tn debate, while Cayzar continued to glance through his correspondence. bhL 4AiA lis q gOuh6 AAldA Ce19 NeA4 had adopted up stepped forward an dhrOve a soord into him. To say that Cayzar was surprised is to express it mildly. He was deeply ehagrined- No wan ixpicts to be murdhered by an adopted child an Cayzar almost lost his temper. What he said Hoga n doesn't exactly reminder. but twas ayether An ye. Brutus,' or Brutus, ye tOo,' or Well. what dye think iv that2' Anyhow he folded his robe around him an passed away. An tn Roman papylace broke into tn shit an gathered up chairs, desks. station cry, franks, seeds, an letters firm lawn D. Archybold an made a bone fife iv thim an burned CayZar's body in it An whin Cayzar's will was opened twas found that he'd left all
