WANDERING OF A PARAGRAPH.

Chicag .ad that u). In fact most
of the Ci..ago paI)rs commented in
one way orliother upon the sonino
lence of the nX5tucktan.
The St. Jo 1, Mo., paragraph man
handles it thus:
''Down in Kenvcky a man's been
asleep twelve years. Won't le be
mighty glad to find out all his debts
are outlawed.''
Somebody in Denver has evidently
had experience in Kentucky, beause
the next time the newspaper waif
shows upl) it is ill a Denver paper tihus
disguised:
'A veteran Kentucky eitizen has
been sleeping twelve years. Probably
only snoozing off a real, old time
Kentucky jag."
A spirit of envy may have inspired
the next text on the subject. It comes
from a New Orleans paper this way:
"A Kentucky man has been buried
in a sound sleep for the last twelve
years. Most likely he started in to
read one of Marse Henry Watter
son 's editorials.'"
Hot oil tlie heels of this unkind cut
comes tie deliberate insult of a De
troit newspaper:
''See that a Kentncky man has been
asleep for t welve years. Don't blallie
him. That's about all there is to do
nowadays if you have to live in Ken
tucky.'"
There is probably some allusion to
local conditions in (Ihis paragraplh
from St. Louis:
'A Kentickian of some standinr
-as been lasleep for tile last twelve
years. In all likelilhood the gentle
man is (ead an(d some of those hiajhly
efficient ambulance surgeons have
made one of tiheir usual hurried diag
noses of his ease.''
Still hurrying on its way, the scrap
of intelligence slips into a Columbus,
0.. editorial rvoom, where the nan
takes it' and hiturls it back inl thlis
shape:
'Tre~~'s a man, in Kentiuky whio's
been aslep t r wel ve years. As long
as lie keeps W- eves shut and lies still
it's all ri.,,ht. Ie's a blamed sight
honester than . a lot of o0hetr Kentuick
ilnns whoi. have beell walking-, aro1-iund

tucky man has been asleep for twelve
years. He probably came in at :3 a.
in., too muddled to make excuses to his
wife, and now he's simply side step
ping the morning after explanation1s.'
When the cineinnati writer starts
in we see how far a man dare ieach
after a pun:
''That Kentucky cbap who has beenl
quietly sleepiig for the last twelve
years must have filled himself I ill of
'still' whiskey.''
Pittsburg shows it still maniages to
keep tin eye on literary affairs:
'A Kentucky man went, to s1eep
twelve years ago and lie's asleep yet.
This shows is the terrible effects of
reading one of the Henry James's no
vels.''
The handIfing of the theme in Cleve
,lan1d Shows i tendency to get gay with
tle Police. The paper says:
'A maii in Kentcky has been
for twelve years. This naturally
brings upl) the plerinent query, ''lWhy
isn't he on our police force?''

The elegant home of that sparklinig
little jewel, Miss Elsie Moore, who is
as pretty as a pictiur'e and as bright
as an icicle and as pure as a djew
drop and as sweet as a flower, was a
sparkling scene of radiant loveliness
last night, for this beautiful little
maiden and her handsome and magni
ficently formed sister liad invited a
number of their friends to assemble
in honor of the beautiful and bewitch

charms and witcheries in Wilson, and
naking so1 many hearts drunk witll
(lie potations of their intoxicating
grazces.
It was indeed a scene of rarst love
