S i i"T- yf THE HTTSBURG DISPATCH, SUNDAY, MAT 4, 1890. I I' V ATE HIS OWN WORDS. Col. Knox Explains Why He Left His Editorial Sit in the West A HAD SHERIFF WITH A BOWIE Prevailed Upon Dim to Chew Up and Smal ler a Column Article. OTHER AGGfiATATIXG OCCEP.KEKCES. XWBJTIXV rOH Till DISPATCH. ! I was in a New YorK newspaper office yesterday, and as I looked at the poor toil ing editors, sitting up there in that teuth story room wearing ont their brains in efforts to mold public opinion, I thought what uneventful lives are theirs, and what little fun they have compared to what I used to enjoy out in the breezy West, in that time lone Rone, when I tried to work off a mort gage on a weekly newspaper. "When I started in my erratic editorial career, I didn't know a proof sheet from a boovolopus nor a Gordon press from a horned jimplicute. But I had great faith in my ability to do almost anything from riding a bucking broncho to writing an essay on "The Origin of Man." I was, in deed, quite popular with myself. I had also some success in persuading other people to trust in me, as you may well suppose when I tell you that after'l had run the paper for three years the man who had the lien on the concern said that I was one of the most promising youthlets be had ever met, and that if I lived long enough he thought I would be able eventually to lilt the mortgage about a foot. I met success, but, as usual, success was going the other way. "What I wanted was success that was going my way and that I could overtake however, I am getting off the track. WHEEE THE DIFFERENCE LIES. To resume, what I wanted to tell you was about the dinerence between the me or the New York journalist and that of the frontier newspaper man. The Jfew York journalist sleeps in Harlem or New Jersey, and lunches at the Astor House or some such restaurant, where he climbs upon a high stool, eats clams and floods his inner works with slate colored coffee. If he buys stim ulants or cigars, he is usually asked to pay for them himself. This is an outrage un known to the newspaper man in the West. There is no "old subscriber" to come into his office, with the perfume of new-mown hay "hanging around him still," and pour a bushel of prize apples at the toot of the edi torial tripod; no candidate for constable or pound master to rush into his sanctum and pleasantly interrupt hi toil by plant ing a demijohn on his blotting pad. Neither is there anyone who feels it his duty to come in, accompanied by a gun, and vary the monotony of his daily labors. When I started my paper out in Texas I had associated with me a partner who, to this day, says that on the following weeks after the first five issues ot the paper I had to make an average of six abject apologies a week. The first week I received the fol lowing letter: You know me and my capabilities. Do you think I would be justified in running for the Texas Legislature? Enclose stamp for answer. Yours, John P. Simmons. Instead of answering the man by mail, I, feeling in a facetious mood, published his letter and under it the following reply: ADVICE FOK THE CANDIDATE. You might be justified in running for the Legislature if you feel that you have not brains enough to teach in a country school, or if yon lack the physical ability to handle a hoe, but redoubt whether even these circumstances would justify the act There are poor houses and asylums In the State, and imbeciles taking the advantage of their charity are well cared for. Two days afterward I received a letter from Mr. John P. Simmons. laconically stating that he would be on hand the next morning at 10 o'clock, on which occasion it was his purpose to fill the man who an swered his letter full of holes. My partner, aided and abetted by the whole lorce of the composing room, cress room and business office which consisted of a man by the name of Primus Tucker anticipating the event, made an artistic arrangement aronnd my desk of guns, knives, scythes and other murderous weapons. At the appointed time, a tall and wild-looking man appeared at the door, and without entering said: "Did you git my letter?" No one answered, as no one wished to ac knowledge the receipt of the letter and by so doing die before lunch. "I say, don't you know that I said that I'd be here?" No one spoke. THE USUAL GBIKD TVEKT ON. I worked away at an article on "The Ke ligious Condition of Europe," although I knew that my time had come. My partner kept on melting the pied type from the hell box in a crucible Irom which every Wednes day we made our weekly supply of bullets, and Primus Tucker was absorbed at his desk in making out the revised statement of our liabilities we had no assets. "Are you all dumb?" said the man at the door. No one spoke. The rival editor, with whom Primus jf Tucker afterward went into partnership, published the statement that, at this point, I crawled behind a barrel of printers' ink. As we only used two pounds of ink a year I never considered it necessary to vindicate myself on this point. "Didn't you get my letter sayin' I was coniin'?" said the Nemesis, as he.advanced one step into the room. No one "poke. Everything was so quiet you could have head a thunder clap. Just then my part ner, who had been sidling toward a window, dropped out ot that orifice into the alley, and skipped down the street bag and bag gage, hook, line and sinker, foot horse and artillery, and ran a thousand yards to the back o the Baptist church faster than a man could fall Irom a balloon. But nobody spoke. IIOBSE OF ASOTHEB COLOB. "See here! Goldern the thing, I writ you that I was conim' down from Pecos county to arrange to be your agent there, and to take subscriptions includin premiums, and I want to know didn't you git no letter from me or are you jist a lot of d d fools?" Primus Tucker and I spoke. We said: "Colonel, pardon us, we were buy, w thought you were somebody else. Come out with us and take something while we arrange our business." Now it was always a scare likethat which I sot; sometimes the really injured p.irtv called. When I wrote of our most promi nent desperado as having recently had 'a ' parenthesis o: sobrietv," he called early. He called early and he stayed long. When he leit the forms were pied, there Were sev eral bullet holes in the pine dry goods box that I used as an escritoire, the lye, ink and paste were scattered aronnd in a way that would have destroyed our ingrain carpet, but fortunately we didn't have one. Yes, when he lelt there was nothing but chaos and bullet marks to show where he had been. The office was empty and I was sit ting behind a rock three miles up the gulch. But those were pleasant times and there was always something to vary the monotony. If it wasn't a shot in the leg for calling my cotemporary "the subsidized organ of a political clique," it was "Old Subscriber," yindex" or "Taxpayer," coming to subsi dize us to announce him lor County Judge, ny presenting us witn a leg or veal. HAD ITS LITTLE DBAWBACK8. Yes, Indeed, there is no comparison be tween the fun the Weitern editor has and what the monotony is that the treadmill , editor 01 New York suffers from. Wish 1 was back there now hunting jack rabbits, getting into difficulties with the Legislature and trying to get Mose Schuumberg to give me an overcoat and take payment in an ad vertisement Of course, there were some unpleasant quandaries one got into occa sionally. Por instance, when a desperado lif afrVit fiiiii8Mif -' arfi' V IfoA - f,ajiMnifflgfete came in and cleaned out the office, I often was in quite a dilemma as to whether I should denounce his act in the next paper, and, as a result, retire to an early grave, or whether I should say nothing and be ac cused by the community of taking water. But anyhow, those were good old days and I would have been there yet if it hadn't been that in my enthusiasm I once referred to onr Sheriff as a man with a nose "like a scarlet runner." I said more than that. It was quite an article, and he came in next day, full of revenge, whisky and potted ham, and, with his bowie, he cut out the ar ticle three quarters of a column of long primer type and told me to eat it. Yes, he did. And I ate it That's the reason I came East I never could bear to stay in a community where I had to eat my own words. But didn't we have fun, anyhow, in that hilarious Western past? J.

New Circular All About Paneled Iron Celling, If you are building, send stamp for this circular. If you are repairing a building, send for it If yon have any rooms with old broken plastered ceilings, or old, decayed and open jointed wood ceilings, send for it Our patent paneled iron ceilings have been before the pnblic for the last eight or ten years, and now there are thousands in use, scattered all over the Union, in stores, banking offices and hotels, while its superior acoustic properties has brought it into ex tensive demand for churches, halls and opera houses. Its low cost and cleanliness intro duces it into schools and asylums. And now the increasing demand for something to take the place of plaster for residence ceilings, something that would gratify the artistic taste of our most cultivated house wives, and still be permanent and endur ing, and thus save them the constant annoy ance and expense ot re-plastering and re papering; something that could be applied over the old broken plastered ceilings with out being compelled to take down and re move the dirt and dust-covering stuff, has prompted us to bring out these beautiful designs ot embossed metal plates. These embossed plates are adapted to side walls as well as ceilings, working up beautifully into wainscoting, frieze and field. Aa all figures and designs are in relief, really very little brush decoration is needed. They are, however, susceptible of any desired de gree of ornamental decoration from simple, quiet tinting to the most elaborate and or nate display ot coloring, gilding and bronz ing, giving abundant scope for display of taste and talent to our most gifted decora tive artists.
