Colorado Springs Laundry Co.-Laundry 138 51 II 00 Being in a reminiscent mood, I will tell you a true one on myself, the lamented Sam Harrison and "Sealskin" Bill Loomis. It was in the early eighties, and the above trio was "bending spaces" on the Indianapolis Sentinel. Getting in three days apiece, we "cashed in" and turned westward, our objective point being St. Louis. We took a "look-in" at the Globe-Democrat-found so many "subs" or "silent beggars," we concluded to "pass it up." We started for Kansas City, our first stop being St. Charles. It happened there was a weekly issue printed in St. Charles-the Cosmos-one half of which was printed in German, the other in English. Harrison was a proficient German scholar, and had no trouble getting a $11 per week job on the sheet. "Sealskin" and myself started west, and took a three weeks' vacation at Moberly, Mo., the home of my father. At the conclusion of our sojourn we made it to Kansas City all right, and on the way gleefully referred to Harrison and his "lucrative $11 per" job; wondered how he'd feel on hearing of us "picking 'em up" on the old Kansas City Times at 40 cents per 1,000 ems. Arriving at the city on the Kaw, we proceeded to "refresh" a little and in due time "showed up" on the Times for work. Imagine our surprise when we walked into the composing room and found Sam Harrison perched upon a stool, "throwing in." He (Sam) gave that broad Kentucky grin, and shaking us warmly by the hand, exclaimed, "Hellow, fellows! When did you 'blow in?" We told him we had just landed, and Sam, in reply, says: "Why, boys, you're a little slow; I've had a 'sit' on the Times for over a week." Omaha, Neb. A. J. EDMONDSON. Years and eons ago, down in the old "guber" state (Georgia), there assembled in the good old town of Columbus a gang of the best set of print ers who ever traversed a mile or quaffed a glass of Milwaukee's favorite elixir. As far as ye scribe can remember the roster, they were: A Mr. Blake, who was foreman of the Enquirer-Sun; John Bagin, George Dudley, Ollie Wharton, Tom Stanmeyer, Oliver Firth, John A. Perry (now of Birmingham), "Dad" McGinley and others who have faded from the tablet of memory. They were all good ones, and Mr. Blake was proud of the bunch, upon whom he could always rely when they reported for duty, because he could always rely on making the mails. They all made good bills and spent it with a lavish hand, distributing their money in the city where they made it, thereby adding to the, material upbuilding of the city. Wiley Williams, who was a printer himself, and who was the chief of police, which position he held for sixteen years, until he was elected to the prison commission a few years ago, and which position he now holds with credit to himself and the good old commonwealth of Georgia, was their devoted friend, who always gave them the key to the city on the day that the ghost walked. They would assemble in the Sans Souci emporium. It was a rare treat to hear the reminiscences of the road, the current literature of the day discussed, and the biographies of the different editors of the country, and the feats of the swift "comps" that traversed in those days. But Mr. Blake could not hold this crowd of itinerants together long, for the wanderlust was epidemic in that city and they began to yearn for more verdant fields, and began to pair off, preparatory to leaving. Ye scribe and Tom Stanmeyer and Oliver Firth were a trinity that left for Opelika, Ala., twenty-seven miles away, by the star route. The first night out they camped near the right of way of the Georgia Central Railroad. Along about 12 o'clock, when the graveyards yawn and the ghosts begin to stalk, ye scribe was awakened from his slumber by Stanmeyer and Firth, who were sleeping on the opposite side of the fire, who ran to us with great consternation and fear, trembling and imploring us to get up, as they could see an apparition. Finally they were so persistent that we finally did arise, and looked out into the black night from across the campfire in the direction they indicated, and to our surprise we did behold a white object moving to and fro. We mustered up our courage and went straight up to the object. There stood a white muley cow, busily engaged in chewing her cud. We all had a good laugh over our temporary fright and were soon in the arms of Morpheus. We held together to Atlanta, where we remained a short time and then dispersed. Many of this angel band and brothers have gone to that bourne from which no traveler ever returned -passed into the incomprehensible as it were. G. S. MCAFEE.
