did not find nuy uvn then; whom
in- Imd known when a member of the
llnim: Vlm-rty ln-Kan '.'-a newspa-pi-r
ciireer when a lad of sixteen years
unci served throiiKh many of thf; In
dian wars of the early seventies as
ji correspondent of trie Chicago Times
uiidi r Wilbur K. Ktory. While chat
ting with some of his friends In the
cloakroom of the House, Mr. Flnerty
told a story of how he was dlschnrg'td
by .Mr. Htory rlurltig the early days of
his career on that paper and then re
engage,), a thing previously unheard
of under Mr. Ktory.
Flnerty had been aHslgneil to report
a Sunday sermon but forgot all about
It until 11 o'clock at Light. The ser
mon was delivered on the lower Side
of Chicago anil the minister was a
well known Ciilholle priest who had
turned Protestant. Remembering only
that the man was a Catholic, Flnerty,
nothing daunte.1, wrote a column of
the alleged sermon, and being a Cath
fdlc himself, worked ! r. to tills "sermon"
several severe raps at the Protestant
faith. When he read the other papers
the next morning Flnerty saw his
mistake, but reported for duty as usu
al. Soon he was summoned Into
the presence of Mr. Story where he
found a clerical looking gentleman ln
conversatlon with the "old man," as
all edltors-ln-cnlef are called.
Of course Flnerty admitted having
written the sermon and Mr. Story,
firm and dllgnlfled, but apparently In
dignant at the temerity of any man
who would thus Impose upon the
Times, promptly discharged him. The
minister began to plead the young
man's cause; said he did not want him
dlschargeed: that he probably meant
no harm, and that It was a better ser
mon than he could have preached any
how, save that it misrepresented him
In the matter of the faith ne professed.
Hut Flnerty had to go, and the min
ister followed. While Flnerty was
packing up. his personal effects the
office boy told him the"old Man"
wanted to see him again. "Mr. Fin
crty," thundered Story, "I discharged
you a while ago. A man v,io did what
you did ought to be discharged. Re
port to the city editor; he has been
Instructed to hire you again, but don't
let that sort of thing happen again."
Flnerty, In telling the story, said that
lie thougnt he heard a quiet little
chuckle as he emerged from the sanc
tum. Indicating that gruff and stern
ns he was Mr. Story had a sense of
the ridiculous anylvnv. Flnerty. re
mained there for years and won his
spurs. He came to Washington as
a special editorial correspondent In
the 3 1 t ii Congress, and liked It so well
that ho went back to Chicago and was
elected to servo one term himself.
