Sensation pays nowadays. Milton Nobles has just purchased the new brown stone residency No. 129 First Place, Brooklyn, for twelve thousand dollars cash, and has taken possession. He has also invested a large sum in vacant lots adjoining Prospect Park, upon which he proposes to erect a row of small brown-stone houses, which he will rent. It is melancholy to think of the Milton Nobles and John L. Steveps kind of trash paying as it does. But Nobles, though, is really funny. The amusement one derives from Stevens is slightly tinged with melancholy. He is only funny because he is so bad.
