Adirondack Murray III New York
Tho New York Times says: Thu Hoy. W. II
II. Murray hotter known us Adirondack Mur-
ray who recently left Texas tiiul wub pro-
ceded by a toloruplilo dispatch which ho dt-
clared a baso slander was nt tho Astor house
yesterday lie appeared to lo In tho best of
health and spirits after his trip to tho Past.
When asked by Times reporter how his litw-
sult ln reference to his lumber property In
Toxus was advancing he laughed and replied ;
"Oh that's getting along all right ; it will lake
about six months before It Is Kntfsructnrily
settled. I don't want to talk ubout It. I don't
want to bo Interviewed ubout anything Tills
Interviewing is tho etirso ct Journalism In
America. I believe It Is only a nutloutiHziitioii
of tho sowing society. Thero a lot of women
meet and pick their friends' reputation to
pieces for tho enjoyment of themselves; the
n' w'pjpois pick every one's reputation to
pieces for thu delectation of their lenders."
Mr. Murray mid he was going to bo In New
York about six months mid wou'd then gu to
Uiiinpe. Howuseuguged in writing n -ook
una subject connected with tho West but
wuuld not talk about It at present.
Tho Dude.
Soveral correspondents ask what Is a
"Dudo." The following will give eomo salient
points on the subject :
Who strolls tho streets each afternoon ;
Who whistles airs all out of tuna;
And dous short coats cut iiulto to soon ?
Tho Dudo
Observe his form. You enn for ho
Wears pants as tight as tight can bo
(And pants for notoriety)
Tho Dude-
Who's stllT as n statuo cut In wood :
Can't bend and wouldn't ir he could ;
A sort or nothing 'twlxt tho bad nnd good?
The Dude.
Who wcars.hls hair all nico and banged ;
And says "by Jove that Mrs. Ijuigt
Ity'schawmlng quite or I'll be hanged?"
Tho Dude.
Who drives a tniidein tor the park ;
Su8 " LHn's aw such u Jolly lurk ;"
(Perhaps the Dude'stho long-sought shark)
Who goes to nil receptions teas;
Who smirks n sm'lo at rrleuds ho sees;
And for his health 8l9suugurces?
Tho Dudo.
Who dresses In tho latest stylo ; '
Declares "Tho weuthah's thlmply vile"
Whoso neither fool nor knave nor sage;
This funny scck on nnt'Te's page
Conundrum or the modern ago?
The Dude.
Who then can work the puz.lu through
Tell what Its ror- what It can do?
Guess what II Is I'll glo it you ;
