PSYCHE—I might have known you were an Alton man. To imitate their bearing is impossible. Listen! and I will tell you the history of a man who once tried to rival a Chicago and Alton man:
[SONG.]
An Alton man of lineage high
Was aped by a rival in days gone by.

To the world when his scheme took formal shape;
Expressed such terror
