Pearsall of the Re view should have a care: his humorous proclivities may be the death of him if be “ don’t watch ou t.” Let him talk not of Bro^ Lott, who has a rich sense of humor but keeps it under c o n trol.” —Observer. In the last sentence the Owl says “ talk not,” where the Observer item they quoted said “ take note.” It IS a serious proposition to be accused of “ humorous proclivities.\ MESSENGERS DO NOT NEED TO GIVE RECEIPT 1 have been asked if the new law re quiring the tax of 1 cent on hills of lading was applicable to delivery of packages by public messenger service, and I wrote M r.Keith, Collector of In ternal Revenue of this district, asking him about this, and he writes that “ the law ;is intended to apply only as to what is known as ‘common carriers of freig h t’ or ‘express and freight’ and the receipt given by a local mes senger need not he s tam p t.” A NICE NEIGHBORLY SLAP Our esteemed contemporary, tue Nassau Post, is planning a Christmas celebration for the poor children of the village, as noted in this paper be fore. They ran an entertainm e n t with the assistance of a number of the lad ies of the village, recently, in which they did not ask us to assist, and the week after the entertainm e n t they published this nice little item : We take this opportunity of public- ally expressing our thanks to the sis ter printers and our merchants. The tickets were donated by the South Side Observer, the placards by the Hemp stead Journal, and the programs by the Hempstead Sentinel. When you are in a position to reciprocate, do so. I refer particularly to the last para graph. Perhaps it is hardly worth noticing, but m view of the fact that the publishers.of the Nasasu Post have on several occasions urged us to help them out of a hole by letting them have stock on which eto print their newspaper, and the further fact that in printing their newspaper they did not get the work done by either of the papers mentioned above, it is rather difficult to comprehend the necessity for this nasty little dig. I the plant recently was closed down. Eagle Injures Ellison The following item is published from the Brooklyn Eagle. We will admit, that in its entirety, without in terviewing Mr. Ellison, we would not dare to take the creoit for it, so will give the Eagle all credit due: J. Huyler Ellison, of 41 Wallace I S treet, jnat home from Virginia on Friday, exhibits a wound on his hand which he received in a battle with an eagle. Mr. Ellison has a plumbing contract in Virginia. A few days ago Ellison heard a whir of wings and s»w an eagle flying toward him. Ellison’s employees shouted for him to duck. The eagle, possibly realizing th a t El lison is an Elk, made another attack, but was frightened off. y Ellison and his employees after a!.:j hard battle captured the eagle. Its talons lacerated Ellison’# hand. On the trip to their boarding house the eagle gave more battle, till Ellison gave what seemed to be its final qui- A rriving at the boarding house they threw its inanimate body on the piaz za. N e x t morning the eagle sat on the railing, and as Ellison came out the door, flew at him. One of the men knocked it over with a club. All examined it, and after declaring the bird dead, it was wrapped in a news The following day Ellison started for New York. The eagle was in heavy wrapping paper, securely tied. Thirty-six hours later Ellison was in | his office in M anhattan. “ W hat is that bundle you have un | der your arm? It seems to be ani mated, ” said Huyler’s brother, Eg bert. “ Oh, ” said Huyler, “ th a t’s an eagle I I killed a f t e r , hard battle down a t ; , , , , ...
