was Enos Bildo, charged the cool sum
of an eagle-or, rather, two sovereigns.
Naturally indignant, our traveller re-
fused to pay such an exorbitant demand,
and he was arrested at the suit of the
son of Vulcan. .f7= g 70
There being no other resource, Mr..
McMurran was escorted to the Magis-
trate Office, back of the bar
After being introduced into the most
august presence of the Squire, and the
charge stated, the following dialogue
occurred:
"Well, sir, what is'your name?"
McMurran, SIR"
"Humph, McMurran-no other
name?n
"John McMurran, SIR
s'No' Mr.. McMurrap-no alias?''
"Of course have not, sir have no

WOMEN AND TRoUBLE.-An Eastern
editor says that man got himself into
trouble by marrying taoo wives.
A Western editor replies by assuring
his contemporary that good many men
in that section have done the same thing
by marrying one.
A Northern editor retorts, quite a
number of his acquaintance found
trouble enough by barely promising to
marry, without going any further.
A Southern editoc says that friend
of his was bothered enough by simply
being found in company with another
mans wife.
