__________________Ticket Agent.
The Galveston-Dallas News has for
years fenced off the humorous effusions of
its staff under departmental heads. Mr.
Snap Shots has presided over a column of
his own, the “Aftermath” manufacturer
has likewise been favored, while the edi-
torial paragrapher has been permitted
occasional indulgence in witty sayings.
Beyond this levity has been inhibited. The
leading editorial has been uniformly sol-
emn, matter of fact, oftimes grandilo-
quent, occasionally flowery; but never,
until last Sunday morning, did anything
humorous appear in that heavyweight sec-
tion. At first blush I wasn’t sure that I
could properly classify the passage I refer
to. I didn’t know whether it was really
humorous, or whether merely grotesque.
It was certainly incongruous, and
now know it is funny. But 1
reader may judge for himself,
passage occurs in the editorial
plimenting the Galveston wharf company
for reducing charges on cotton. After a
very lucid explanation of the matter, the
News tells of the excellent sheds the com-
pany has for cotton storage, and states
that in smaller interior towns cotton is
held in open yards, fenced in with barbed
wire. Then it adds: “At some of the
larger interior towns there are ware-
houses, but in most cases they are with-
out roofs and they are not inclosed.” The
incongruity of that statement in the heart
of a serious business editorial is irresist-
ibly funny. The point is that warehouses
without roofs and not inclosed are not
warehouses at all; in fact, they are noth-
ing—in short, nit. I might have thought
the language quoted was a delicate sar-
casm, meant to imply the absence of ware-
house facilities at the larger interior towns,
but for the preceding sentence concern-
ing the open yards in the smaller towns.
Continuing the editorial reads: “The result
is that cotton stored at interior towns is
exposed to the elements.” Naturally,
one would suppose that anything stored in
a “warehouse” without roof and not in-
closed would be exposed to the elements,
but the expression has a drollery about it
that is positively charming. The next sen-
tence removes every doubt as to the hu-
morous. intent. “Cotton thus stored gets
wets,” is the excruciatingly funny aver-
ment. Well, of course! Think of it! The
“Aftermath” man sometimes publishes a
key to his humorous skits, and I shall
furnish one for the editorial writer.
1. Warehouse, sans roof, sans inclosure,
sans everything.
2. Chump stores (?) his cotton. It is ex-
posed to the elements; there is nothing
to turn the rain; rain is wet, consequent-
ly—
3. The cotton thus stored gets wet.
A “warehouse” not inclosed hasn’t even
a barbed wire fence encircling it. The
humorist, therefore, might well have gone
further and said: “Cotton thus stored Is
exposed to the cows. It gets cow eaten.”
That would have rounded out the story
and made it the pink of perfection.
• * •
I have a friend who writes editorials for
a paper not a thousand miles from here.
Recently he was temporarily in charge of
the paper, and while so acting was called
upon by a young lady who imagined that
she had received inspiration from the
muses. She had some verses which she
magnanimously offered to the paper free
of charge. The verses were not pretty,
but the girl was, deucedly so. My friend
could not resist, and against his better
judgment he consented to let the young
lady’s poetic light shine before the world.
When she had gone he became troubled.
He pondered long over the difficult prob-
lem as to how he could servei both the
young lady and the “old man.” At last
he settled it. He took the copy to the
foreman of the composing room and said:
“Say, I wish you would ‘lose’ this rot
somewhere,” meaning thereby that he
wished the verses printed in some obscure
part of the paper. When the matter came
up from the linotypes, the foreman in turn
gave the order to the galley boy: “Here,
Bill,” said he, “I want you to ‘lose’ this
somewhere.” “All right,” the devil re-
plied; “I have a good place for it, follow-
ing the editorial.” That galley boy is not
only destined to become great; he is great.

HUMBUG PIANO SCHEMES.
Beware of the club drawing scheme if
you know what is for your good. Beware
of giving notes when you buy pianos on
installments unless you wish to court
trouble. By all means beware of humbug
tuners and repairers, who promise to
make your old pianos new or give them a
tone like a new one. This can no more be
done than making a youth of an old man.
You will save money and a world of
trouble by consulting us when you need
a piano or want yours tuned or repaired.
