THE, X N6 - V ' w Page 162 e e 3 z AN INCIDENT AT CHICAGO-KENT. CWith apologies to Robert Browningj By HANK KERCHIEF. You know, we students stormed the classroom, A short time ago, And out in the hall Judge Pickett, His sturdy bulk did show. . With eyebrows knit, Qcan't you see him Pj His eyes not missing a thing, As he mused to himself, The poor fellows, I'll make 'em sing. H. just as he murmured, half a-loud, ' If that guy Sproger makes-more noise- Let him get out of the crowd And I'l1 tell the boys -if' When it was whispered 'round the room, The paper-chuck it, A I hear the Judge, and here he comes. HI, In came the Judge and he was at his best, Smiling to all as he passed, A You hardly could suspect, CSO jovially he talked with all the rest, And scarcely anyone knew.j ' You looked twice 'ere you saw his faceset. Sproger had the paper, he knew. IV. Cried he, Let's have the roll call noyv, We've a lot of work tonight. All settled down as best they knew how, A And kept their lips shut tight. Over the room wandered the judge's eyes, Only to rest on Sproger. ' V. Far over the table leaned the Judge, As he' loudly called for Sproger. The Kidf' got up, with shaking knee, . He couldn't talk, and could- hardly see. Give me those last yearfs questions-don't And The Kid just cou1dn't answer, For he in his fright had swallowed 'em, And now they were inside. - VI. Thus endeth the tale of the paper, A tale that will oft be told. a try to hide With a cheer for our friend, judge Pickett, And a tear for the lad, Kid Shirts. :E-19257
