THE NEWSBOY’S VERSION.
Indianapolis Sentinel. There is nothing anewsboy won’t tnckle 'when it comes in his line of business. The Coffins were yesterday morning reloased from the penitentiary on a writ of supersedeas issued by Justice Harlan of the Supreme Court. The papers came out in course of time with the news and the newsboys began ciyingtheirl test sensation in ordei to dispose of their wares. But the word “srpersedeas!” They hud an awful time with it. Here are a few of the ways it was called on the street: “Here ye are; ail about the Coffins gt t tin’ a skipperhideous!" “Paper? All about the bank wreckers ketcbin’ the skooperideous in the peniten tiaTy and gettin’ throwed out.” “All about Prank Coffin bein’ hit with seedyskooperous for wreckin’ th Indian apolis National Bank.” “Last edition. All about the Coffins findin’ a soup-house-seedy-cat in the penitentiary and escapin’." “All about the Supreme Court lettin’the Coffins out of jail on a hippersoupious, “Great sensation! A skipperdoodius found in the Coffins’ cell in the penitentiary. How they escaped."
The Louisville Courier-Journal, refering to the proposed iarilf bill, editorially says: One might suppose, from the way in which such papers as the New York Press rave about the efforts of the (South to destroy the wool industry of the North and West, that there was not a single sheep in the South. Only one state in the union has as many sheep as Texas, and that state is Ohio, whi e Kentucky K as more than either Indiana, Illinois or Wisconsin. The south is as much interested in the protection of the sheep as ai y other section, but would rather nAve a dog law than a protective tariff.
