Some of the Last of the Season.
An ancient mariner, bending un
der the weight of a well-loaded tray,
entered our office this noon and pre
sented a card with the compliments
of Mr. J. J. Dray, of the Acme
saloon. The waiter contained a
dozen nice oysters, on the half shell.
They may be some of the last of the
season, as was hinted, but they were
none the less delightful on that ac
couut. Mr. Dray has 'more of the
same sort to dispense to his customers.
