UNEQUAL WAGER AND THE REMEDY
the wager upon the recent boat race in Bos-
ton, on which a young lady staked one of her
own curls against dozen pair of gloves, and
lost, the Providence journal says: .,...
''Such an unequal bet the lady might well
refuse topay, Had it been single hair, the
odds would have been sufficient on the fcmi-
nine side. but a whole tress against all the
gloves that .)ouvin or Boiyin ever exported !!
no gallant man could assent to such mu-
t!ation. He may, rs an act of justice, claim
the curl, but surely he will not sever it from
its glossy companions; he must take it as it
is, with the head, heart and crinoline attach

Arrest Of an Old Rogue.
a CAREER OF CRIME


We announced few days since the arrest
of Ebenezer Center at Great Falls, n. H.,
for dcfrauding the Cabot bank of Ghickopec
Of 500 by false representations. After he
had been arrested he attempted to escape
from the hotel at Great Falls, where he was
sleeping with the officer, by lowering himself
from the window with sheet He fell,
however, and was badly injured. The
Springfield Republican says:
Center is an old and expert yillain-old
alike ia years and crime. He is native of
Charlcstown, and his family was ranked
among the Oldest and most respectable of the
city. He has evidently had a finished edu-
cation was bred to the mercantile business,
and during the fifteen years from 1923 to
1888 was n dry goods merchant at Boston
and afterwards at Baltimore. lie became
insolvent in the latter city during the panic
of that period Soon after this his wife died,
and having returned to Boston, pcnniiess and
dispiritcd, although Mt the time only thirty
six years old, he commenced his life of for
gerry and crime, getting into state prison in
1913, for one year, for forging a bill of la
ding His friends the most of them wealthy
then deserted him; his only daughter took
up residence with an uncle a Boston law
yer, and his son went to the SOUTH where he
is engaged in an honorable calling. The FL
tier persisted in his life of crime, and in
1853 found himself second time in the state
prison, for two years, also for forgery. Since
his release three years since, he has not in
the least amended his ways, and the prison
officers have had their eye on him, expecting
his return and almost hoping for it, because
he is recorded us being "a good cook Cen
ter has two maiden sisters living at Maiden
possessed OF comfortable property also a
brother at Brunswick, Me-. engaged in ship
building, AMI an uncle at Baltimore, veal
thy and now retired man Of business. lie
says for himself that he has no hope for the
future, and no desire except for q place in
which to die. He has already lost the sight
Of one eye, his hearing is partially gone, and
lie says his health is broken. He attributes
his life of crime to the intoxicating cup In
his intercourse he is gent!emanly aud cour-
teous, and shows high breeding"

The ATTRACTIvENEss OF MURDER-There must
be something very fascinating in murderers and
murderesses, for they are more run after than
heroes or opera singers Ever since the interesting
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Of Mrs. Cunningham took place
the street where che lives has been thronged with
iders especially women who have taken MP
their position there early in the day. and have
been got rid of with difficulty by the police late
in the evening. On Friday, the police officers
were obliged to assure the crowd that she would
not be moved from 81 Bond street; they seemed to
want to stay there all night
Equally singular was the rage of the Edinburg
crowd to see Miss Madeline Smith. After her
acquitta, the officers who had her in charge hired
female to personate her, and drove off through
the crowd which followed the carriage shouting
and vociterating. Meanwhile, Miss Smith
walked away in another direction with friend.
1t seems that great murderers possess charm
superior in the eyes of certain classes to any other
category of celebrities. Sometimes the desire Of
the crowd to see them is nearly akin to a wish to
lynch them; this we fear has had something to do
with the Bond street assemblages. But just as
often the curiosity is merely idle and gross 1t
is not part of human nature to be proud Of
