The After Math
Buffalo Bill drew rather heavily
on Monmouth for an audience at
Sa,e,m- Wednesday and among
neavy-v.u, u.u., ,
to the call were Messrs Robert
Steel, George A. Muscott, E. C.
Ecker and R. M. Smith.
I Buffalo Bill has been along
time on the road and has learned
how to put out enticing notices;
his name has a big bunch of load
stone or drawing power, so he at
tracts, but there comes an after
consideration, when securely
seated in the big tent, with all
the expectancy engendered by
flashy showbills, and the reality
before you, there comes a reac
tion and the individual begins to
compare the real with the expec
ted, and ask himself whether he
is getting the worth of his money
and effort in coming. This seems
to have been the condition of one
or two, and perhaps all of the
quartette named, but one in par
ticular seemed depressed until he
looked around and recognized that
there were others, and then he
soothed his mind with the
thought, "There is a bunch of
us."
A phrase, learned in youth,
comes to the mind to express
conditions: "Veni vidi vici." I
came, I saw, I conquered, but the
expression does not fit the occa
sion, it needs doctoring, hence, it
is necessary to change to "I went,
j I saw, I got stung."

What Puzzled Lou...
bonis Philippe was a wit. What
he specially excelled iu was the
clinching of an argument, such as,
i'or instance, his final remark on
the death of Talleyrand. He had
paid him a visit the day before.
When the news of the prince's
death was brought to him he said:
"Are you sure he is dead?"
"Very sure, sire," was the answer.
"Why, did not your majesty himself
notice yesterday that he was dy
ing?" '"I did, but there is no judging
from appearances with Talleyrand,
and 1 have been asking myself for
the last four and twenty hours
what interest he could possibly
have in departing at this particular
moment. '
