FereesEEn THE LOUNGER 1IN THE LOBBY, A Few Thonghts Upon the Delights of Thanksgiving, ATTRACTIONS AT THE THEATRES, Chicago's New sical Prodigy—Cam- panini's Suggestions Regarding the Care of the Volce—What is Doing in the Dramatic World, A cheerful institution of these United States and one that adds to the slender stock of holidays of the American people occurs next. Thursday, when all sects and classes ure supposed to give thanks for the mercies and benefits Jof the nearly past year, and to pray for a continuation of kind treatment in the future, Appleton’s compilers as well as other authors of definitions, surround the origin of the day with several beginnings and trace it definitely to none, Other countries have their ‘harvest home" festivals and celebration of the ingathering seasons, but no other country of the globe is puton record as possessing a civil holi- day of this description, separate and distinct from any day of thanks or commemoration of any special deliverance. The Hebrew feast of Tabernacles ‘came nearerto Thanksgiving day than any other observance and the ancient data of the former suggests itas being the foundation of the latter, The early history of the day in America is uite well known, I am sure,to the majority of Tue Bee readers, but that noone may be ignorant of its adoption in this country, I hope I may be pardoned usnort digression from the’ usual topics which are discussed under this heading. Custom has fixed the iast Thursday in No- vember as the day on which the ceiebration shall be held, but_in the early dn{s the gov- ernors of the different staies issued their pronunciamentos as they pleased. The determination of a general day came about through the location of a flourishing village half in Massachusetts and half in Rhode Islend, The respective governors of the two states used to choose different days much to the disconcertion of the domestic arrangements of the residents of the town in question. On two days of the year one half the population would don its good clothes, live high, shut up its stores, go to church an put on style generally, while the other half sloshed around and attended to business just the same as if nothing had happened. Of course the rivalry got to_be expensive und finally the governor of Massachusetts said to the governor of Rhode Island some- thing that has since been attributed to the governors of the Carolinas. Anyhow @ treaty of peace ensued and unity of thanks and turkey for ever after was the result in the divided village. The celebration has kept pace with time until today it ranks with the first of Ameri- can holidays. To the dramatic profession it comes with positive delight. It means a jolly dinner for every Thespian in the lund who has the wherewithal to purchase it, and those who baven't will find in a convenient saloon, where free lunch is served, a warm cut from the breast of the fow! which on this day is sacrificed upon the altar of a nation’s thank- fulness. . o the managers of theaters the country over it means big houses, big profits and in consm}uenm their hearts are filled with thankfulness that on two or three days of the year Lhc{ have an opportunity tosuspen® the free list and fill the seats, which would otherwise be occupied by dead heads, with vatrons, whose dollars help to make the man- al heart glad on Thanksgiving day. ‘o the men and womeén who are far re- moved from the ingle sides of their boyhood girlhood, Thanksgiving day is_freighted with tender memories. Boys and girls no longer they are out in_the world battling for place and position, fortune and fame, but reminiscences of other Thanksgiving days troop in upon them, not unlike wedding guests to a feast, The sentimeot which T have tried to ex- ress may be Eictured in these commonplace ines which 1 have chosen to call THANKSGIVING NEMORIES, A homestead old I see tonight, 1t gables pinnacled with snows Tts rustic windows warn with light, Its hearth with dancing flames aglow, From city and from town hus come A madéap, merry, noisy crew Who take possession, fall and free, And frolic as they used to do. And now old songs are sung agaln, And ancient incidents recited; The boys recall the garret myths— * e girls, the vlaces love was plighted. And in the midst of all this joy, 0ld “Zeke," who still persists in living, Brings up the cider from below And apples,kept for this Thanlkegiving, The erackling logs upon the learty Their mimic salvos fire atwill, As It rejoicing in the fate That keaps sweet pace around it still; And though tonight I'm far away. Still memory leads me to the 1iving, And well Tknow I'm not forgot Anald thelr joys this gind Thanksgiving. 1was talking yesterday with Henry E. Dixey and the talk naturally drifted to t evolution of the burlesque, 1t may be inter- esting to know what Mr. Dixey's ideas are regarding it : “Burlesque occupies a_rather unique posi- tion among the other branches of thedra- matic art,” said he. “Itlacks the heaviness of the legitimate, the improbable situations of the melodrama and the absurdities of the broad farce. Yet at the same timeburlesque takes all these three mn hand and cleverly lampoons and caricatures them, Thereis a freedom and dash In burlesque that is hardly rmissibie in other branches of the art. Stags ideas are sometimes brushed ruthlessly aside and the author or actor uses his own idens to carry outeffect. There isno pent-u Utica in burlesque. In fact the very lrolhK ness and crispness of burlesque is what makes it 50 attractive to music lovers. Con- ventionalisms are plerced as wish a fine stil- etto; stage weaknesses are handled without loves and the owner of areal live fad cansee 't exposed to a gaping world in all its hide- ommHem;."h ek . “Has the burlesque made any progress, Mr. Dixey " i e “In my opinion it has made more rapid strides toward perfection than any depart- ment of the dramatic art, The student of the stage can recollect ‘Pocahontas’ and ‘Chris- topher Columbus.’ It is not necessary to go any furtber back thanthe date which in- cludes these old favorites, They are the typical and for atime were the ideal bur- lesques of their day. An analysis of their ‘construction shows that the groundwork of the libretto presented but one idea through- out, or. it might be said with a little more truthfulness, two ideas throughout. One was, in the first place, @ bold attempt at rhyming, ‘Daughter’ was made to form an apparcutly euphonious coalition with ‘oughter,”a corruption of ‘ought to,’ and so it went on. Enghsh was assassinated in cold blood, grammatical precedents were annihilated and poelical license was avery long suit for the librettist. So much for the first point. In the second place into this rhymthmic delirium wereinjected a num- ber of very bad puns. In the construction of *Adonis’ and my other burlesques Ihave made studious efforts to avoid these hack- noyed methods and I have introduced in their stead such features as will please the eye and ear and the better senseof humor. Burlesques are better staged und the mechanical effects are more pleasing, In all these directions have improvements been made and the burlesque of today is fur in advance of those seen ouly ten years ago,” Tue LOUNGER. Spectacle is certainly oneof the most pleas- ing forms of stage amusements, It finds favor with all classes, and ne one has so clenr\¥ monopolized this peculiar field as Mr, Wm. J. Gilmore, who is considered at the head of all diversions of this kind. The sec- ond edition of “Tha Twelve ‘Temptations,” under the capable management of Charles H. Yale, will open a three nights engagement at the Boyd on Monday evening, The spectacle has undergoue so many changes that aside from its title it is from all accounts a produc- tion more grand and pleasingthan that which ‘Wwus seen here two years ago. An exchange commenting upon the piece said: “W. d. Gilmore's ‘Twelve Temptations' attracted an audience at the Grand opera house last evening that filled the theatre. An audience, 0o, that was not slow in demonstrating its admiration of the magnificent stuge settings and striking transformation scenes, applaud- ing the villian when his schemes seemed Lo go O well, and applauding the hero when the good triumphed over the bad: In mounting ‘Tho Twelve Temptations. Mr. Gilmore has passed the highest maxk of the spectacular drama. The scenery is,the handsomest ever seen on a theatrical Stage, while the mechan- ical effects are marvelons. The play sbounds in lr('rlnl features. THe ballet is strong, in- troducing fivo very profty novelies. The dramatic portion of thewliow s g6 complet overshadowed by the mechavieal and scen: effects that it is but & BIEL part of the at- traction, There holvever, an interesting plot that is worked out much clearer than is usual in spectacles, and the lines are better than the average m spectacular dramas, The company is strong.” “A Brass Monkey” will bo at Boyd's opera house as the holiday atlraction, commencing Thundu{y, Thanksgiving matinee, and con- tinuing for three nights witn Saturday mati- nee. Mr, Hoyt has in this piece woven his absurdities into a connected story, There is Just as much bright aud attractive musiec, gracefui danciag by pretty girls, and pictur- esque specialties distributed tnrough the evening as there was in the case of Mr. Hoyt's earlier comedies, but in “A Brass Monkey" the thread of the story is never lost, and effective and uproariously funny climaxes, growing naturally out of the situa- tion, brings the acts to a finish. The story has a number of quaint develop- meits. Oneof the quaintest deals with o disinterested neptew, whole revengeful na- ture prompts him to disgrace the Work family b%' appearing in public places in the company of the toughest he can find, The auction rooin scene is full of odd bits of business and picturesque features. The auction room is presided over by Jonah, one of the unfor- tunates of life who is 1n the habit of aserib- ing all of his many misfortunes to such out- ward and visible signs as come under his notice, The famous **Wild Man from Borneo," will be sung by Messrs, Dodge, Barnes and Porter; the “Razle-Dazzle” by the same arties, and a trio, “The Good Die Young," y the three eraces, Misses Maud K. Will- iams, Sadie Kirby and Kugenie Maynard, The most notable among the new features is George F. Marion’s Italian “Chestnut” speech. It is said to be excellent in character and dialect, novel and original, and so entirely different from the customary Irish and Ger- man specialties that it is doubly enjoyable. THEIR FIRST MUSIOCALE. Mrs. Cotton’s Pupfils Score a Well De- served Success, The firstof & series of musicales which Mrs. J. W. Cotton and her pupils. purpose giving during the winter was held Thursday ovening in the Lininger art gallery on Daven- port street, followed by a reception of an hour, during which the guests present took occasion to warmly congratulate the par- ticipants upon the sticcess they achieved. En passant one cannot help but allude to the generosity of Mr. George W. Lininger in allowing tho recital to be held in his art gal- lery. If there were ouly afew moro such public spirited men in Omaha the cause of art, of literatare, of music would be greatly furthered instead of remaining in its unde- velopea state, as now. The recital was evon more of a success than the most enthusiastic of Mrs. Cotton’s admirers had hoped for. There was a certain empressement about the performance which could not help but please the audience, which filled the saloh almost to suffocation. It was really a crush, the- friends of the vari- ous participants beingout in force to assist at the debut of the voealists, Mus, George Gould Inaugurated the even- ing by sioging Tours). “Because of Thee" very sweetly and prettily, and was_followed by Miss Myrtle Coon who rendered Bach's “Cradle Mary friends by Song" Oliver very effectively. quito surprised her beautiful rendi- tion of Cowen's ‘Love is a Dream.”” It was so.full of sentiment and hased so perfectly that a storm of applause Tollowed 1ta completian; Mr, Paul Beresford, the only gentieman figuring on the progrutme, sang ““Calvary” in avery modest mauner. His voice, while not particularly large, is handled with skill, and under Mrs, Cotton’s direction ought to grow in bcnmu it grows in volume, Mus. C. S. Whitney is the possessor of a very sweet soprano voice which was shown to good advantage in Arditi’s *Magnetic Waltz," Miss Kate Ball selected for her debut asa soloist Chadwick’s pretty ballad ‘‘So Far ‘Away,” which displayed her light alto voise very acceptably indeed. Two duets by Caracciola, “A Streamlet Full of Flowers,” and ‘*Nearest and Dearest by Miss Bouiter and Mrs. Moeller wero beautifully sang. Both voices were in perfect harmony, the soprano of Miss Boulter fur- nishing the high lights for Mrs. Moeller's rich and rare contralto. And the number was one of the geins of the evening, introduc- ing two well and favorably known vocalists to the audience, Miss Clara Clarkson charmed the guests by her am.;w rendering of “La Primevera,” by Torry. While her voice is mot big by any means 1t is beautifully modulated in the upper register especiully, just suited for colorature singing. Miss Anna Bishop has both a rich and a nignetic alto, which shows evidence of very careful training. It isfull of sentiment ana gives promise of something out of the or- dinary if care is taken in its development. Miss Biahog sang “The Journey is Long," one of Coombs’ compositions, and won many warm words of praise for the munner of its rendition. In a year wonderfully that it Miss her Miss Georgia Boulter improved, so much was the wonder of her frends, who have _not heard her Sunday after Sunday at the St. Mary's Avenue Congregational church where she holds the position of first soprano. Her technique has greatly increased under Mrs. Cotton’s direction, and her phrasing, which was so much of a former drawback to her work, has wonderfully improved. She has a beautiful voice excelling in tho upper register. * Her middle voice still needs judicious care which may have been somewhat handicapped by her solo selection, “De Phwer mi balza il gor,” from *“William Tell)’ Written upon an exalted plane, the favorite lyric number of Mme. Patti, Gerster and Nilsson, it was nevertheless ves effectively sung, barring & slight tendency to accentuate notes which the composer never intended should be so marked. The programme was completed b; octette, “‘Approach of Spring,” by which was charmingly done, the di- vision of the voices being as fol- lows: First sopranos, Mrs. Whitney, Miss Mary Olver; second soprancs, Mrs, George Gould, Miss'Clara Clarkson; first altos, Miss Kate Ball, Miss Lou Porterfield; second altos, Miss Anna Biskop, Mrs, . L. Moeller. Taking into consideration that this was the first appearance of & number of the par- ticipants the recital was successful to a degree. has 50 an rade, _——— The World do Move. - And so do the elegantly appointed trains of the Burlington route.

ECHOES OF THE OMAHA CLUB DINNER. Speeches by Dr. Miller, Major Pad- dock, Mr. H. W. Yates, Mr. W. E. Annin, Mr. Thomas Kilpatrick and Others, Owing to the great demand for space in the columns of Tue S AY Bee some of the speeches at the Rosewater- Webster banguet atthe Omaha club Saturday evening, the 15th inst., were unavoidably crowded out. They are here accordingly reproduced. Dr. George L. Miller in responding to the toast, “The Campaign, " said: “Mr. Toastmaster and gentlemen of the Omaha club—1 have been sitting here this evening very much delighted with some things that I'have seenand heard, and very much in suspicion of some other things that Ihave noticed [laughter] in the last half hour, or hour, or two hours. I am suspicious that Jobn L. Webster, mny eminent friend, has been secretly trying to steal my speech here, I propose to punish Mr. Webster for the offense by talking to you an hour, but he implored me not to do it and in consideration of your feelings T will not inflict the punishment this even- |||¥‘ but will reserve it for the future. have listened with great satisfaction to the eloquent speeches of the gentlemen who have preceded me—eloquent gentlemen who are entitled to the gratitude of the people of this state. 1 want to speak of a man who 18 not here tonight.

[Avoico: “Moffatt.’’ Applause.] He was notwell enough known to this communi- ty; I take itfor granted that he was not known to many outside the commercial por- tion of the city, but wherever he was known he wus known as a manly, true and loyal man, and I want to say that this occasion should not pass withouta tributeto the memoryof aman who had as aceurate judgment of our affairs, resent and future, considering the time of Pis vestdonoe in the oity, asany man I ever had the honor of meeting. That young man, modest and retiring, though aggressive, worked with these gentlemen, with Mr, Rosewater at the head, in a way that showed us that when we lost him, we lost as capable and useful a man as’ ever lived. [Applause. | “Although my identity with this commit- tee was A mere Jdgurative one, or one with which I had 1o particular connection excent to know of its organization, I say that the combination_of this great editor, the elo- quence of Webster and that man of unex- celled organizing power, Mr, Roggen, who is unsurpassed as an organizer by anyone I ever knew, having access as I did to ruqum every hour, I say here on my responsibility, that in all my observation in political work, Thave never seen men better organized for battle than in thecampaign just passed. My department has_been one of prominent ser- vice to—the Voice. |Laughter]. As the approved correspondent of @ man by the name of Rodman, I will submit to this busi- ness association if I_did not completely un- fold the wants and needsof the people in this campaign. 1f that letter of mine was not sufficiently plain. 1 will surrender all my claim of recognition at the hands of the literary bureau. [Laughter|. I told them what we did not have and I told them what we wanted. That little incident in this cam- paign was very amusing to many and some- what to me. I immediately subscribed to the Voico and I am & regulir patron of that paper now. |Laughter]. It has given me all the literary distinction Iever had in my life since I presided over the Omaha Her@ald. “Gentlemen, I have listened tonight to the oloquent and _comprehensive address of Mr. Rosewater, who has statéd something of the past and much of the future of this great youngeity, now in its babyhood, tompared to what it will be within the lives of the young men here tonight. The work in the future for this city will soon belong to the young men who are kind enough to listen to me. The shudows of age are falling upon the heads of the men who may be called the fathers and founders of Omaha. [,as one of the men who came here before the Indian occupa- tion had ceased, in the coming few years can see the end of a life that kas been active here for thirty-six years. I say to the young men here tonight, You who are in the meridian of manhood, that your imagination cannot paint a future for this city that will not be far out- stripped by the reality for the next twenty- five years, “Kor thirty years T have madea daily study of the resources of Omaha, 1 remember very well when a man by the name of Durant, who built the railcoad here, said that the railroad could never be operated for the reason that there was no fuel in the Rocky mountains with which to run the locomotives. I know it was his plan never to build the railroad an inch bevond the city of Cheyenne, because he said the mountains could not be passed, or the fuel could not be obtained. “When I came to Chicago, men said, ‘We have all the growth we will ever have here and you had better go west, and I came west to grow down with the country forthe first fifteen years, and I say to these young men, don’t you discredit _anything what such men as I am say about the future of Omaha, for upon that depends your future fortune. If L could have .convinced the men of Omaha twenty years ago that this city was to haye a population of 150,000, I could have made a thousand men rich. @''These gentlemen bave furnished me the text: Rosewater has given you the statistics, and lam dealing with what I can foresee of the future of this city, and when you wish for the ulovnlo‘smeun of this community west of you with all its manifold resources, in ten or twenty years it will out-run and discount the imagination two to one, [Applause.| Then W. V., Morse, the eminent merchant of your city, has a jug of whisky corked up, which hesays he is never going to uncork until this city has a_population of 400,000; I want to say to him that he will be a compara- tively young man when the jug is uncorked. Thanking you, gentleman, for your kind at- tention, Ibid you good night. [Great ap- plause and cheers. | Major J. W. Paddock responded to the toast, **The Old Settlers,” He said: “Unlike Mr, Yates, who starts with water, I will take a generous sup of wine, When I was first notitied of this banquet [ was told that it would bea gathering of the active, vigor- ous members of the club to honor our guests of tomght, Isee that I am expected to give aignity and style to the entertainment. I want to say seriously that I am probably the oldest in this gathering, at least the oldest inhabitant of this community. Dr. Miller is two weeks behind me. As old settlers we have passed through mnn‘\l' epochs and strug- gles in the history of the state, among the most notable of which was the location of the capital thirty-six years ago, there being but two present who took part in it, and the location of the Union Pacifie, there being but one here who was eifective in that result. But I say that never was any victory won that meant so much to the prosperity of the state as that which has just been achieved. It is of more importance in building umu State and insuring the safety of everybody than all the others, To none is this resuit more directly due than to our guests here to- night. Talking of old settlers reminds me of the fact that amongthe pnm{:k\n producers in new territories the oldest inhabitants are re- garded as inveterato liavs, I want it under- stood that I am the oldest inhabitant able to be present and tell the troth. 1 need hardly call your attention to two of our greatest Ne- braska products—Canada Bill and Buffalo Bill, The former, although once a hunted citizen of our state, as & financier had few superiors. Subtle lu his management, child- like aud bland in his manifestations, skilled and adroit in his manipulation of trust funds, we shall never see his like again. The other has won distinction and dollars on two conti- nents, and when heis not hobnobbing with the prince of Wales, is marshaling his dome- sticated aborigines and painting things red in the western portion of our own fair state, We have no Vanderbilts or Goulds, but we are proud to present the, name of Buffalo Bill Our soft, continued twitight is supposed by some to be the reflection of the tetting sun, butwe oid settiers are aware that it is simply the reflection of William’s shirt front dia wmond, When darkness comes on it is be- cause he bas succumbed to his insidious foe, old tanglefoot In tnirty-six years our state has made a surprising advance in the arts and sciences, Neovraska has compelled the groat American Gesert to retroat to mythical lands and leave these fertile valleys to yield rich abundance for the most enterprising and prosperous representatives of our race.’ In replying to the toast, “The United States Postal Department,”” Postmaster Clarkson said that he could scarcely under stand why a contemptible government oficial, as a New York paper called him, should be invited to participate in the fostivities of the occasion. Said he: ‘““We have heard a preat deal about the generals of this campaign, and T desire to say that the grand result could never have been obtained without the hearty co-operation of the rank and file. To the work of the business men of Omaha is due the magnificent result that has been accomplished, All the gencrals on earth could not have done this without the assistance of this association, The Omaha postoffice has grown to be a mar- velous thing. A fow years aeo it was all car- ried in A, D. Joues' hat, and now a fivestory building has been found to be altogether too small. It has been found necessary to re- quest our business men to send in their mail by instalments during the day that it may bo promptly handle Over fifty thousahd let- ters are mai if this office every y actual count, Over_ 81,500,000 is received and paid out, and &5.000 worth of stamps and_envelopes sold every month, "This is bound to make Omaha heard from all over the country. None of us are tooold to see thisa city of 400,000, and itis coming soon. No city in the country is as nervy,live and wide awike as Omaha,'’ B. W. Simeral responded 10 the toast *“The Bar." He said that the bar had maintained the law and or of the aty and state, and continue to doso in years to come of Omuha stands rw-cmxm-m among the courts of the coun- | Ty, Mr. Thomas Kilpatrick was called for, and said that he was sorrvy that he could not eon sider himself with Messrs, Miller and Pad- dock as an old settier, He said that for six- teen years he had resided at the early home of Mr. Rosewater, and it was his priviloge to think him a great power. He came from Cleveland, and was told that the most power- ful paper west of the Missouri river was Tne OyAnA Bee, ¢ v privilege to know and esteem Mr, Rosewater's family, and I am glad . he stands so highly teday in the estimation of the people of Omiha. Tt in the future I am not pleased with him I shall say 80, but T will respect the man who stands by his party and is always working for the benefit of this great and growing city.” Mr. Henry Yates, responding to the toast of “Our Bankers," after u humorous refer- ence to some other bankers present who should have been called upon instead of him- self, and the possible connection that banks might have with the occasion, as suggested by Judge Clarkson—spoke asfollows : “I had the honor of presiding at the tirst meeting called for the purpose of inaugurat- ing the anti-prohibition campaign, and upon me devolved the duty of appointing an execu- tive committee. Several weeks were taken for the purpose, and I beliove 1 selected a good committee. Iam free to confess that, for a time, I felt, with other, somewhat dis- satisfied when this committee was displaced at a subsequent gathering by another chosen in its place. In the light, however, of results, it must now be admitted that the right men were found for the place, who, with the blessing of the divine Providence, have brought about this grand success, and 0 Mr. Edward Rosewater personally, in iy opinion, tho credit is lare. due for the de- feat of the prohibition amendment. “T was opposed 1o prohibition not merely, as asserted by so many, that it did not prohibit firstly, becau: believed it would be mental to the materia) interests of this city and state; and, sccondly, because I did not beliove in the principl self, The law should not undertake to inte to this ex- tent with individual rights. Life is made up of small things. Men's tastes differ. One finds his greatest enjoyment in a good cigar, another, perhaps, in the driving of a fast team, or the eating of a turkey, and I am sure but others find theirs i vers and psalm-singing. Notwithstand-_| s belief, during all my twenty-nine years of residence in this city-—for I believe I ante-date Mr. Rosewater—no one heve éan v I was ever sean inside a saloon, And, ht here, I beliove 1t proper to refer toa subject and problen which is presented to the peopleof this city. It should be dis- tinetly understood and our newspaper should send it forth with no unver- tain sound, that we are in favor of tempel ance and the enforcement of the law. Public opinion will do more to lessen the number of saloons—and the curse of saloons—than any law which can be enacted. Great advance in this direction has been made in recont years, and, if our prohibition friends will only let us alone or will join hands with us, much greater vesults will follow in the future. The men who voted for prohibition were, someof them cranks and others doubtless tricksters and imposters; but, the large ma- ority were terribly in earnest and no one should believe that the cause of prohibition is dead. To combat with it _successfully, we should demonstrate, what I believe to be a fact, that a large majority of our people, while voting against prohibition and for ll\uh ligense, are also opposed to the saloons and saloon influence. Another problem in this connection is also brought vividly before us of the largest financial importance and_which mast soon receive our gravest. consideration. In view of all the contingencies presented, some movement sould be commenced or some plan devised for the support of our public schools other than that derived from saloon license: “In closing, I desire again to allude to the great service rendered to our state and city by our guests of this evening. These entitio them to all the thauks you have extendea and all the honors you have conferred upon them, and, in my opinion, deserve at our hands a much more substantial recognition than what is supplied by this banquet from the Omaha club,” W. E. Aunnin, being introduced by the as *anxious to respond to the toast of “The Press,’” said: “When the commi tee of five, of whichI happen to bea mem- ber, was appointed to see how many of the 200 members of this club would be willing to stay away, we mutually agreed that no posi- tion of hotor or trust Should be accepted by any member of that committee, We broke the rule first in the case of Offutt. He firmly but persistently insisted that he should he se- lected as chairman. Wedidn't want him and tendered the position to J. M. Woolworth, He regretfully declined on account. of ab- sence from the city. So, too, aid Dr. Miller, who had broken another engagement to be with us this evening. ~ As alast resort we were compelled to come down to Offutt, and, of course, he nccepted with thanks. [Pro- longed laughter.] The reflection he has cast on me in his introduction cannot, be per- mitted to pass unnoticed. Hence my simple retort. L6 As T passed by the table about two min- utes ago Mr. Offutt said: *We shall call on you to respond to the toast of The Press, and Mr. Rosewater added sotto voce “I'he Express.’ [Laughter. There is something iu that.
