Jack" is proverbial for his careless use of
money NoJaborer more dearly earns his pit
tanee than does Jack" but once ashore, he
throws care to the wind and enters recklessy into
any and all species of amusement, until his cof-
fers are dry, and then reships to undergo still
further hardships and again go over tho same
course. On Saturday night two jolly tars be-
longing to the ship Abyssinia, now lying at Arch
street wharf, just being paid Off came ashore
for the purpose Of having agood time Falling in
with some land sharks, they were enticed into a
low rum mill, where their stomachs were soon
filled with strychnine whisky and their pockets
lightened of their cash. They were then turned
out into the street, when by dint of assistance
and perseverance they succeed In reaching the
wharf at which their vessel lay, but found they
could go no further.
They then lay down on the dock to cogi.ate
and plan, when Morpheus claimed possession,
and soon they slept the sleep-of the intoXicat, d.
In this condition they were discovered by Officers
Morris and Clawson, of the llarbor force, who
finding all efforts to arouse them unavailing,
procured blocks and tackling, and hoisted them
like bags of salt on to the deck of their vessel,
where much to their surprise they awoke, minus
their cash, yesterday morning.
