BOYNTONS ELEVATED OVEN RANGE

This new and beautiful Range, which has just
been completed is offered to the public as the
most complete, convenient and desirable Elevated
Oven Range in the market and is the result OF long
experience in the manufacture and setting of Cook
ing Ranges and do not hesitate in recommend
ing it the nearest to perfection OF any Elevated
oven Range in the country.
We will enumerate some of the peculiar advan-
| tages this Range possesses
| First-It is more beautiful in form and design
than any other pattern.
Second-It has a much larger hot place Surface
for Boilers and Stew Pans, atfording larger accom-
modatons for Cooking purposes.
Third-It has smaller Fire Chamber, and burns
less coal than any other pattern of Elevated oven
Range for the simple reason that the fire chamber
is entirely surrounded with fire brick instead of an
open CRATE in front and water back in the rear,
forming two sides of the fire las in all other pattern
ranges) both of which chill and deaden the fire and
detract largely from the power, and make it abso-
lutely necessary to burn larger amount of fuel.
Fourth-The body of this Range is higher than
other patterns, and is more like the French kich-
eners, making it much more convenient and easy
for the cook
| a Fifth-The hot closets are more accessible,
%laced in natural position (being in the body of
the Range) instead of above the ovens in other
patterns.
| Sixth-The ovens do not project over the boiling
surface SO to make it inconvenient In removing
| the boilers, as in other patterns.
| Seventh-There are better arrangements for con-
veying the steam to chimneys and controlling the
| draft, than most ranges.
Eighth-The ovens bake more evenly, as we have
return fue over the top of the (which is the
point that most often fails thus securing perfect
baking oven on the top well as on the bottom.
Ninth-The tiues in this range are all complete in
themselves, that it is unnecessary to form them
| of brick, (which absorbs the heat) and makes the
| setting of them much more simple and sure.
Tenth-The water back can be removed and the
plumbing work can be repaired, if necessary with
| out disturbing the brick work

Bay One Of the pleasantest trips of
the season will be the steamboat OK
cursion of the Temple of Honor to New
Haven, this month. The boat will
leave here early in the morning and
return the same evening. This will
be much better than spending night
away from home. There will be no
danger of the disorderly conduct that
sometimes characterizes such parties
by indulgence in Intoxicating drinks,
all may go without the slightest fear Of
having the harmony and pleasure of the
trip thus marred, The Reporter may
be counted in for this trip.

nga. The Young Mems Christian AS
ISOLATION took possession of their new
and elegant rooms in the Arcade
building" on Monday evening, by pub
lie exercises. A large audience assem-
bled at the " Arcade Hail." Mr.. Carl
ton the President of the association,
presided, and made the opening adj
dress. stating the reasons for the re-
moval from Library Hall to their pres
ent quarters. He gave brief sketch Of
the organization, and closed with
kind and cordial APP peal and invitation
to the young men of this city to visit
the association and to become active
members.
The Rev. Mr.. Kempshall next ad-
dressed the audience, congratulating
the association on the change made
and the prospect before them of sue
cess. His remarks were well timed
and as we'll received.
Mr.. Stebbins of the American Tract
Society also spoke, presenting through
the generosity of some friends three
hundred copies Of a little work entitled
"The Young Man Setting out in Life. "
Mr. S. knows how to talk to young
men. His address, we have no doubt,
will result in great good to the associa-
tion.
1t was our pleasure to listen to
sketch of the origin of the association
from the venerable F. W. Foote. He
alluded to the labors and benefactions
of Mr.. Dodge, through whose immedi-
ate influence the society was establish
ed and its library gathered. He refer
red touchingly to the late Henry J.
Raymond of the N. Y. Times as a self
made man, and closed by urging the
young men to labor to form each
good, strong and influential character.
DR.. Miller spoke next of the claim
of the association on public sympathy.
He urged to unity of effort and unceas-
ing toll to make the rooms of the as
ISOLATION not only pleasant place to
meet but where religious influence
should ever be exerted.
Rev. Mr.. Read said he was "let off,
from a speech when his name was call
ed, but the President declared he was
{" let on" Mr.. r. spoke at some
length on the religious aspects of the
association and the duty of making it a
spiritual blessing to its members. The
singing of the evening was excellent by
the "Musical Union," which kindly
volunteered their services for the open
ing. At the close of these exercises the
audience repaired to the library and
conversational rooms, expressing the
greatest satisfaction at the change
made andpromising mu CHI for the future
of the association both by mind and
influence.
The rooms are now so conveniently
located, easy Of access, and pleasant,
that the ladies can without difficulty,
visit them and avail themselves of the
benefits of the library. We cannot
close this brief notice without adding
our editorial congratulation to the as
ISOLATION, wishing all possible success
in their new rooms.

Me- A very worthy woman lives on
Washington avenue She has one child
who works at one of our manufacturing
establishments. The little fellow, with
his hard-working mother, has been
enabled to lay in store the sum of four
teen dollars, and in the exuberancy of
his buoyant nature, he made the fact
known to three of his playmates.
Strange as it may appear, these little
fellow at once craved possession of the
money, and for several days debated
as to how they could gain the box, At
last they resolved upon plan which
they proceeded yesterday to carry into
effect.
Watching their opportunity, they
saw the old lady and her son leave the
humble house to perform their daily
duties, and then, when satisfied that no
one was observing their movements,
they climbed over the garden fence,
and the ringleader of the party-a boy
aged eight years-ascended the grape
arbor, and gained an entrance into a
room in the second story-the other
two-aged nine and eleven years re-
spectively-remaining on the ground,
in order to "keep watch. as one of the
boys said.
1t was but the work of q minute Or
two, for our youthful robber to open
the bureau drawer, and quickly Selling
the box, he threw it to his confrereS,
and then descended with the greatest
agility. Fourteen dollars, all in green
backs. were found within. They had
never before handled such large sum
of money, and their eyes fairly spark
led with delight.
"Caution came up at this moment,
and asked "what are you to do with so
much money!" All! the boys hadn't
thought of this, SO they determined to
take "iust four dollars" and return
the balance with the box, to the place
from whence it had been taken. THIS
was done, and the three boys sat down
under the shade of the arbor, and di-
vided the four dollars into equal parts,
after which they left the yard. and then
fastened to toy store, where most of
the money was expended in purchasing
toys, candies, etc.
The old washer woman returned to
her home sometime during the day,
and as usual went to the box to deposit
her days earnings, and was struck at
the disarrangement of the contents OF
the drawer, which first attracted her
attention. A closer inspection revealed
the loss of her money, and she without
delay informed officer Walker of the
fact. The officer soon ascertained who
had committed the robbery, and short
ly afterwards arrested the boys, who
| WGIG lthtlt DtlOLG u uoblCC L vi d1ullj WIN
kept them in custody till evening, when
the distressed parents of the culprits
appeared, and refunded the amount
stolen, which satisfied the old lady,
who declined prefeming any charge
and the boys we're discharged.
The boys during the day, were kind
ly provided for, and received advice
from both the justice and the officer
which if followed, will prove Of lasting
value to the boys, who, we are inclined
to think will hereafter profit by theil
escape from prison.
Their escape was narrow one, ant
we trust we shall never again be called
upon to chronicle their arrest.

SUN AND SHOWER.

Life, like the weather. with shade and shine
Ever is chequered from time TO time.

Has oft ere now been observed in rhyme. }
Fate Is a veathercock prone to veer,
And turns to the wind that may be- in
power
And life is cloudy, and life is clear,
In the reign alternate of sun aud shower.
Now you'll be drenched--wet through to
the skin,
And ban the weather in undertones
Now you are melted and wish you were
thin.
Or could take off your flesh and sit in
your bones"

Clean and gloom in the self same hour
Nay. often we get them both at one time,
An April struggle of sun and shower,
But take the advice philosopher tends,
Ii misfort"e surely yoa wish to blk
And beg, or borrow, or steal from your
friends,

Would you face the climate with iron nerve,
And calmly o'er its vicissitudes tower!

As shade in sunshine and shelter in

An KEOS ESC MAN.

In the year 1877, young man named
Cobleigh, who had been engaged as loco
motive engineer on the Eastern Railroad.
went out to Cuba 10 take charge of the
engine of large sugar factory at Carde-
mas. Before leaving, he remarked TO
friend that he meant TO purchase lot
terry ticket when he reached Havana. as
he believed those schemes as fair and
honorable as lottery could be, boing un-
der the direct supervision of the Goyern>
ment. His friend, a young unmarried
man, handed him so, saying "There,
get me ticket, too. I'll try a ticket for
luck, and shall set the ten dollars down
to profit aud loss"
Time passed on. CobIeigh remained
a year in Cuba, and then returned TO the
States and ran a locomotive for six
months on the Erie road, after which he
went to Columbus, Ohio, where he re-
mained nearly four years. During this
time the young man who had intrusted TO
Cobleigh the $40 for lottery ticket had
married, and become the father of two
children. He was sail-maker by
trade, and worked hard for the support
of his family.
At length Cobleigh came on to New
Iork, where, by chance, he met his old
Cuban employer. who informed him, in
course of conversation, that a prize of
twenty thousand dollars, drawn five years
before by sold ticket, had never been
claimed. What was tn. number? Cob
leigh obtained it, and then went home
and overhauled his trunk, and among a
lot of old letters be found the two lottery
tickets which he had bought in HAVANA,
over five years belore-and one Of them
was the fortunate number
A few days after this tho young sail
maker, in Boston, received a letter from
the engineer, inclosing the lottery ticket,
and giving directions for obtaining the
money. The mechanic was thunder
struck and at first would not believe that
his friend bad written truly but upon
inqulring of the Cuban Consul, he found
that his claim was good, and in time he
obtained the twenty thousand dollars
He tried to find Cobleigh, to give him a
part of the money, but could not.
year more passed, and Cobleigh Wis
tied Boston. He was going to the gold
country, where he was engaged to SUPER
intend the running of engines for quartz
mining. His pay was 20 be ample, SO
he would not accept any part of hif
friends fortune.
"But," urged the sail>maker, ''why is
not the money as much yours as mine p
Both tickets were together"
Aye" replied Cobleigh 'but it was
yours that drew the prize When ]
bought them / selected mine first. Then
| selected one for you, from which nip
ped off a bit of the upper right hand cor
ner. When [ found the two tickets, after
learning one of them was entitled to a
prize, [ discovered that the nipped corner
bore the fortunate number So, OF
course, the prize was yours

TIE SIAAiEsE TwINs. The following
gossip concerning the Siamese Twins seems
rather apochryphal, but We hand it round
for The benefit Of chronological science:
''Chang belongs 10 ;he Good Templars,
and is a hard working and enthusiastic
supporter ofali temperance reforms But,
TO his bitter distress, every now and then
Eng gets drunk, and, of course. that
makes Chang drunk too. This unfortun-
ate thing has been a great sorrow to
Chang; for it always destroys his useful
ness in his favorite field of effort. AZ
sure as he is 20 head great temperance
procession Eng ranges up along side Of
him, prompt 10 the minute and drunk as
lord bat yet net more dismally and
hopelessly drunk than his brother, who
has not tasted drop. And so the two
begin to boot and ye!l, and throw mud
and bricks at the Good Templars, and of
course they break up the procession. 1t
would be manife5tly wrong to punish
Chang for what Eng does, and therefore
the Good Tempars accept the untowards
situation, and suffer in silence and sorrow
They have officially and deliberately ex-
amined into the matter, and find Chang
blameless. They have taken the two
brothers and filled Chang full of warm
water and sugar, and Eng full of whisky,
and in twenty-five minutes it was not pos
sible to tell which was the drnnkest'' -
