Novel Lawsuit.
A Man Rescued from Drowning
at the Jersey City Ferry, brings
{ Suit for $50 Damages.

n man AAOcCuCU AIOAu OIOHnlnf :,
at the Jersey City Ferry, brings
Suit for $1J, 900 Damages.
From the n. Y Herald.
On the evening of the 3rd Of
January last, about two minutes
past seven o'clock, when the ferry
boat had moved away from the
bridge at the Cortlandt street ferry
man named Lyons, residing in
Washington street, New York,
deliberately walked overheard
from the bridge, and would have
been drowned had not the bridge
tender, Thomas Tobin, and anoth-
er of the employees rescued him.
He was very thankful to the men
for saving his life, but when he
returned home and ruminated on
the matter for a few weeks a
bright thought struck him. He
caught cold from the bath, as was
quite natural, considering the Sc
we're weather just then, and was
confined to the house for some
weeks, az he alleges. lie then
employed a lawyer, who instituted
proceedings against the ferry COM
pany for $4,000 damages. In
his affidavit lie makes the extraor-
dinary statement that there were
no lights on the bridge and that
one of the employees pushed him
in. The case is under inyestiga-
tion by the ferry company, and
the evidence thus far reflects great
credit on Tobin, the bridge tender,
who has been instrumental in saw
ing six lives within as many
months at the ferry, and in some
cases he received only abuse for
his reward. In no instance did
the rescued party offer him even
one dollar.
The lesson to be derived from
the present case shoulda jury a.
ward damages, is thai it is much
better for the ferry company that
a man would be allowed to drown,
putting aside the question of hu-
manity or the priceless gift OF hu-
man life. There would, in such
a case, be no suit brought, and, as
dead men tell no tales, the en-
ployes would not be accused of
throwing a man in for mere d.
version. This is certainly a GU
rious sample of gratitude. 1t is
analogous to the case of the man
mentioned in "Curran's Recollec-
tioAs," who had his eye hooked
out by a man who was in the act
of saving him from drowning, but
who was rewarded with a prosecu-
tion for the loss of the eye.

Miss Phoebe Cousins, the St.

woman's tights meeting in New

recent discovery of what the mis-
sion OF the interior being, man, is.
It is to clean the household crock
cry, and this she based on the au-
thority of the Bible, in the 2lst
chapter of Sd Kings, and 18th
verse--viz: Il will wipe Jerusa-
lem as a man. .soipetb a dish; wip-
ingit, and turning it upside down" /"
Miss Cousins thinks there is quite
as much reason in this as in the
text by whieh woman's sphere is

THE ARREST.

. ! .
Once again the door opened,
but this time it was the detective
who appeared, closely followed by a
couple.of policemen. Advancing
straight to where Vaughan stood,
apparently transfxed with fear,
he laid his hand on bis shoulder
and said, "Will you come quiet
ly? or must / use force p d9gf
To the dismay of Mr.. johnson,
who expected an outburst of
passion, Vaughan asked in a
trembling voice: .bsyiBqsI s3.
"What is it you want me for?"
'Robbery of So, 900 worth of
goods from this gentleman's store.
Have you anything to say about
it?' t.6.
]ssNot to you" And he held
Iout his hands for the handouts:
During this scene no one had
thought of Mrs. Wilson, but their
attention was now called to her by
a heavy fall upon the ground, and
they perceived that the unfortu-
nate lady had tainted away. Mr..
johnson, as soon he could breathe
again, demanded from the police
officer the meaning of the intru-
sion, insisted upon it that there
was some mistake, and attributed
the agitation of Vaughan and his
sister to the horror they felt at a
charge of this sort being brought
against a gentleman. -
The detective without saying a
word, fitted the handouts on the
young mans wrists, and signed
to the policeman to remove both
from the room. As soon as the
door closed behind them Mrs.
Wilson was carried OUT he smiled
and said: 81 know we'll enough

seeing her visitor, and sympa-
thized most heartily with him
when he narrated his loss to her.
She asked him a great many
questions as to the opinion of the
detective and was hardly less
confused than her brother had
been, when Mr.. johnson alluded
to the probability Of a speedy
capture of the offenders, and ad-
ded that his porter could swear. to
one at least of the gang. Mrs.
Wilson at this juncture became
SO alarmingry pale, that he feared
she was about to faint, and sprang
up to open the window and ad-
nit fresh air. As he rose from
his char, the door was violently
opened, and Vaughan burst into
the room, his clothes disordered,
his face heated, and his whole as
.pect denoting great anxiety. See
ing Mr.. johnson, he hesitated, and
a look Of intelligence and alarm
was exchanged, between himself
and Mrs. Wilson. He then, by a
great effort, partially recovered
his composure, apologized for the
mode of his entrance, and said
that lie had expected to see his
sister alone, and had something
of Importance to say to her. The
merchant Immediately prepared
to leave, and had exchanged fare
wells with the widow, when the
door again opened, apd to his a.
mazement, his warehouse porter
entered with a letter in his hand, |
and gave it to him without say

leave from the lady-Vaughsn

tented himself with nodding to
