The force at the News office was
thrown into quite a connection one
day last week, when a very shy
and much embarrassed young man
came into the office with a bundle
in his hand. He held the bundle
at a distance from his girth and
the staff at once suspected a dvna'
mite bomb and decamped as hur'
ridly as was CONSTANT with their
dignity, all but the police reporter.
Being accustomed 10 ornaments
OF all kinds and being hardened TO
crime. he stood his ground and
turned to his typewriter, prepared
to write the story OF his W dis
truction in a dynamite outrage.
He motioned the young man TO a
seat, words al that moment be-
ing somewhat scarce with him,
and awaited the explosion or what
ever else was coming.

stammered so much confused that
the reporter gathered courage and
spoke up.
