It is a somewhat singular fact that'many hundredsof these ""penny libelers are sent throught the postoffice every Valen­tine’s day, dnd what! is true of thifil place is probably true of almost every poatoffice ip the United States. Presumably they are sent as the most convenient method of grat­ifying aj feeling of jealousy, spite or anger on the part of the person in­vesting in them, or possibly in some, cases they are sent in a spirit of pure fun. Bull in any case they do not speak veryhighly of the good sense of the send­er and place him am ong th a t classof cowards known as anonymousletter- writers.

The sort of valentines next highest in demand are those of the low- priced ‘‘sentimental’’ order. These range from .five to ten cents each and are purchased chiefly by school children and are supposed to ex­press the tender feelings such as aren o t infrequently bro iight to th e su r­face by boy and girl love. Thiastyle is represented! by the well-re-m©mbe4ed verse

T H EY FLOOD ITHACA WITH SHOW FA PEB.

Three people representing BillyEmerson’s great m instrel company, which is to appear a t W ilgus Hall this* week Saturday evening, arriveed in town this morning and com­menced scattering bills prolusely on the streets, law ns and in places of business. t

This p a rty is headed by Mr. Sam. Joseph, a gentlem anly and personal representative of th a t veteran show­m an Mr. Hooley, who is the propri­etor of the Megatherian Minstrels.- Lo and behold, Mr, John M. Mc­N a m a r a , a la r m in g to b e t h e a u t h o r ­

ized agent of- Mr. .John Haverly, appeared op the sOene and soonthe hotels, stores. restauran ts etc., were filled w ith bills and litho­graphs announcing the coming of .H ayerley’s Minstrels, but strangely omitting to fix any date for their ap­pearance here. A reporter called up­on Mr. W ilgus who said th a t he was acquainted w ith Mr., John H averly who had not secured the hall norbooked his entertainment. Subse­quently Mr. Joseph Pandea tub reporter the following card,—allaying all doubt on the sub ject:

A CARD.

To Mr- Samuel Joseph:In answ er to yoar enquiry and for th e in fo rm a­

tion of t r e public I have to sta te th a t H averiey 's M astadon M instrels, are n o t boobed a t W ilgug Opera House, nor h a re I been asked by- Mr H averly or any agent represen ting Him to reserve for them any specified date H. L. Wilgus.

Mr. Joseph whose appearance and words secure credence for him any where, informed a representative ofthe J ournal that Haverly’s Min strels would not come to Ithaca ;that they did not intend so to do ;that th is was a fact he pledged his word as a gentleman; the failure to fix a date and only the vague assertion of Mr. McNamara that sometime in the lat­te r p a rt of March the Mastodons will come is the only w arran t for stay ­ing away from the greatest burnt,c o r k e n t e r t a in m e n t n o w t r a v e l l i n g ,

the superiority of the g reat Hooley or Emerson Company which is to a r­rive here next Saturday.

“W hen our elegant band parades your streets next Saturday,” saidMr. .Joseph, “you will know thatthe M egatherians a re hero—untilyou see the Mastadons you m ay well doubt even their Intention to cotne.’r

“This m instrel w ar was organized by Mr. H averly in a w esterd c ity toruin R. M. Hooley. It is carried on relentlessly bu t our business is not in jured by it. I t causes the peopleto investigate for themselves and the result is that we have orowdodbouses w herever we go. Our ex­penses, however, a re largely Incre&s-ep .by this guerilla warfare. I makeno statem ent as to the charac ter ofHaverly’s minstrels but cohtentm yself w ith condem ning the m an­ner in which Mr. |H averly pur-sues us not for his own gain perhaps, hut for revenge upon ourM e . H o o l e y . ”

* “This will show you that Haverly’s company do not intend visiting Ith­aca”—and he handed out the follow­ing w ritten statem ent:

^ FUNNY, AIN ’T IT ? " ,A gentleman representing hlmcelf to te tbe'

agent of Mr. Haverly called in our atone thia morning and requested permission* to pot npa lithograph tor Mr. Haverly, and t-11 ing me be“only wanted uld lithograph to remain lp win­dow .un til S atu rday , F eb . 14,” th e day th e E m er-«oa Mlfiltreli exhibit it Ithici.
