A DARK SroRr.-A few years ago there
lived in the town Of -, son of Judge
B., whom we will call Joe, who frequently
imbibed more than he could comfortably
carry. There also resided in the neighbor
hood a painter named W., who kept sa-
loon. Now, w. was practical joker On
one occasion Joe came into WIS saloon, and
rather early in the morning got very much
intoxicated and finally fell asleep in his
chair. Joe was very near-sghted and always
wore spectacles. After he had slept some
time W. took off his spectacles, blacked the
glasses, put them back again, lighted the
lamp and then awoke Joe, telling him it was
II O'Clock at night. and he wanted to shut
up. Joe started and remarked that he had
slept sometime. w. then said, =" Joe, it is
very dark, and | will lend you lantern, if
You will bring it back again" W. lighted
a lantern, gave it to Joe, and helped him up
stairs. Joe went off toward home, lin the
main business street,) in the middle of the
day, with his lantern, everybody looking at
him and wondering what was the matter.

A SINGULAR COINCIDENCE IN MATRIMONIAL
HIGH LIFE-A curious case of matrimonial
incontinency is related by the Lowell Mass J
News, which says: "A married woman.
moving in high circles, left her home one
evening lately. and taking a conveyance to a
hotel in the rural districts, was soon joined
by an unfaithful husband who ought to
have been at home taking care of his own
family instead of engaging in intimate com
panionship with those outside of his own
household. The couple ordered room to-
gether, representing themselves as husband
and wife. At later hour the same night a
carriage drove up to the door of the hotel
with another couple, who engaged lodgings
in an adjoining chamber. All passed off
quietly enough until the next morning. when
the two couples were summoned to the
breakfast table. There they met when-lo
and behold, there was mere change of part
ners, each gentleman having upon his arm
the wife of the otherl Although there was
a mutual blushing, mental cursing and re.
crimination, it was deemed best, after sober
second thought, to let the matter rest as
quietly as possible but the coincidence was
too remarkable one to avoid the ear Of the
oyer-curious"

Then lift its voice and to forest rant -
