While 1 am bitterly opposed to The whiskey truffle, yet I am strictly In ""favor of eipml Justice and falrnesa. * Well as ,1 wanted to mention other *Ihln#i, I'll Just sketch. I guess Sue will give ms trouble, if I tell It, but It was funny. Just as Sue and J were going to press the other evening, Sus'i Ma came dashing In with a little message to some old friends hut we put her off and promised lo pu l it In our licit. So the old lady went a- way seemingly satisfied. , I wish I could tell you more about Sue; ] hut she Is sweet ami I dout want to make her mad. Old Mrs. Jenkeus says from what she can learn (he U. 8.

The most striking incident that occurr ed on tho trip was poor little, Nellie lllpps' meeting her ma. She hugged and kissed her and wept bitterly, and talked sweet, so soon ns site could recover from the shock and her sobs, Her mama did not Seem to realize what Nellie was to her. 1 saw the stoutest men turn and walk off when little Nellie met with her mama.
