midnight
If there is anything I can do for you here , let me know . Town is fearfully dull , except for the frequent raids of the Servant Girl Annihilators , who make things lively during the dead hours of the night ; if it were not for them , items of interest would be very scarce , as you may see by the _ Statesman _ . Our serenading party has developed new and alarming modes of torture for our helpless and sleeping victims . Last Thursday night we loaded up a small organ on a hack and with our other usual instruments made an assault upon the quiet air of midnight that made the atmosphere turn pale . After going the rounds we were halted on the Avenue by Fritz Hartkopf and ordered into his _ salon _ . We went in , carrying the organ , etc. . A large crowd of bums immediately gathered , prominent among which , were to be seen Percy James , Theodore Hillyer , Randolph Burmond , Charlie Hicks , and after partaking freely of lemonade we wended our way down , and were duly halted and treated in the same manner by other hospitable gentlemen .
