Show A Ghastly Sight 1 We have seen various styles of I hoopskirts dipplay windows of course but never before in our lives did we behold such au one as met our sight last Monday evening We are truly glad it was late for had such a horrid object been thrust to our view in open daylight doubtless doubt-less our timid reporter would have fainted It was by accident we saw this skeletonlike addition to our mortal frame for had we anticipated antici-pated such a ghastly sight most assuredly we would have been somewhere else Un fortunately however we were returning from the circus when suddenly a rumbling fuss was heard then a shrill shriek ran through the air and an uproar followed Hastening Has-tening to a group who seemed to be holding an inquest over the remains re-mains of some fallen hero and pushing our way through what should we see but the latest agony in the hoopskirt It was made of keg and barrel hoops artistically arranged and securely fastened with a large hemp twine It was the property of a cullud oman who came forty miles to see the circus The remains were kicked into the gutter and ourreporter stole quietly away and hid himself for the balance bal-ance of the night Rome Ga Courier |
