Scott Liked Work-Pro—.
Scott, who was poet, novelist, law
yer, too, would have been greatest of
all as Journalist. Listen to this from
his Journal for February 15, 1826:
"Yesterday I did not write a line of
•Woodstock.' Partly, I was a little out
of spirits . . . Partly. I wanted to
—lit for some new ideas. . . . Partly,
I was a little too far beyond the press.
1 cannot pull well in long traces, when
the draught la too far behind me. 1
love to have the press thumping, clat
tering and banging in my rear; it cre
ates the necessity which almost makes
me work best. Needs must when the
devil drives. . . . There is the very
spirit of Journalism; and that devil.
Surely, is the printer's devil!”
One Thing Grouch Can Do.
“A grouch,” observes the Jamestown
Optimist, “adds to the happiness of
i others only by keeping away from
them.”—Kansas City Star.

Unde Toni’s
Cabin Comments
Some little time since, an Unde
Tom's Cabin Co. played in the
opera house here and the thing
was so bum that the Northwestern
was too pen paralyzed over it to
grasp the situation. The same
company visited Clay Center, this
state, last week and the Sun
emerged from pen paralysis suffi
cient to say of the Terry outfit:
“They cut out one death scene
that used to be good for a few
tears; they had a fat Ophelia;
Uncle Tom couldn’t sing “There’s
a Land of Spirits Bright,” and
the most heineous offense of all,
they didn’t give us that grand old
$10,000 transformation scene,
whereas we used to see the gates
of paradise swing open and in the
melting glow of two bits worth of
red fire see little Eva do her aerial
stunt. A Tom show with these
omissions is akin to a Hamlet pre
sentation, without the melancholy
Dane. And the bun spoke not
of the lack of fierce bloodhounds,
only one poor lustreless old dog
being on the job and he forgot to
show himself in the parade or in
the chase of the wabbling Eliza,
who “fled'’ across the stage from
wing to wing in her perilous jour
ney over the “icewhile the fight
between Haley, Lawyer Marks
and the poor hound on the one
side, and the Quaker and Harris
on the other, from opposite sides
of the stage, with lack of rocky,
mountaineous stage settings, was
too utterly painful to witness.
The Sun also forgot to mention
that the “sun-kissed, bright
haired” little Eva wore an abund
ance of “raven-colored caput cov
ering” and t hat Topsy was so poor
in action and in dialect that it
gave the audience severe pain.
The Sun forgot to mention, also,
that Lagree thought he was play
ing to an audience in some dis
tant town and nearly split the
ear-drums of those present with
his Krupp gun lines. And while
the Sun was about it, it might
have noticed that Haley and La
gree character doubling was too
much for the actor who seemed to
think he was playing both char
acters at one time, but the paper
is forgiven for its sins of omis
sion, when it says: “There was
not an actor in the whole combi
nation, and, to one familiar with
with U. T. C. companies, this was
just as it should be, for one only
goes to see Uncle Tom nowadays
in order to have childhood recol
lections revived."
Reed-Crockett
A quiet but pretty wedding was
solemnized last evening at the
home of the bride when Hattie L.
Reed and Eli Crockett were united
in marriage Rev. Warren of the
Methodist Episcopal church offici
ating.
Only the immediate relatives
and a few others were present at
the marriage which occured just
as the six o'clock bells were chim
ing. Following the ceremony at
the house the wedding party went
to the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Ainslie Davis where dinner was
served and the evening spent in
social converse.
Both parties are well and favor
ably known here and need little
introduction. During the two
years Mrs. Crockett has resided
here she has created a wide ac
quaintance as proprietor of the
Electric theatre and every man,
woman and child knows and ad
mires her for her kind and courte
ous manner. Mr. Crockett has
been a resident of Greeley for
many years, and practically all
his life has been spent here with
the exception of the time he was
in the lumber business at Belfast
and merchandising at Horace.
Mrs. Crockett states that she
will continue in active manage
ment of the Electric while Mr.
Crockett, at least for the present,
will oversee the work of the dray
line. Later he may enter into an
other line of business, but as yet
has not fully decided.
This paper feels confident the
heartiest, best wishes of all is ex
tended to them—Greeley Lender
Independent, Dec. 10.
Clever Deception.
Men who craned their necks and bun
tied against each other to get a look at
the girl on exhibition in one of the
store windows were given the laugh
by women in the crowd. The flutter
ing of the girl’s parasol, and the blow
ing of her dress convinced the men
that they were looking at a “living
model,” and It was not until they had
gazed at it for some time that they
discovered they had been fooled. By
arrangements of fans the breeze gen
tly blew' the gown worn by the
wax figure, and also her parasol. Her
hair was blown about her face In a
most bewitching fashion and more
than one man exclaimed, “Isn’t she a
peach! ” and discovered his error when
the women in the crowd snickered.—
