Not long since one Of the veteran boarders
at the Thompson House in this city, named
Bob, returned after an absence of several
weeks, to see his old friends, particularly his
intimate friends Thompson and Capt. Sewall.
Bob made his appearance at the Jail Office,
and after the usual salutatious, Mr.. Thomp-
son, the landlord, asked TO be excused, hay
ing business of Importance to attend to. Bob
and the captain were left alone in the off e,
and the former having supply of "spirts"
offered to communicate" some of them TO
his former brother boarders, and passed them
the bottle, neglecting or perhaps forgetting to
ask Capt. Sewall to take drink, wherenpon
the captain became atfronted and ordered Bob
to leave. Bob did not Immediately obey or
ders, whereupon the captain opened upon him
a full battery of thick boots. Like an engine
with tender behind, Bob made sudden re-
treat, leaving his reserve forces in the shape
Of quart Of benzine, behind him. The cap
tain followed up his first assault with terrific
bombardment of boots, when poor Bob cried
out for quarters, and the battle ended.

The idea has been quite generally expressed
by those who use gas in this city, that some
definite statement should be made by the of
fcers of that company, that consumers may
know whether they can depend upon having
gas this winter. The fact that it entirely fail
ed twice the past week seems TO give force TO
the inquiry. If the present price, four dol
lars and fifty cents per thousand feet, which
is higher than is asked in most if not all the
cities in the country, is not sufficient to keep
the works in repair and ensure constant
supply of good gas, customers are ready to
pay more. As it is now, besides having build
ings laid with gas piping, and all the fixtures
put in at a large expense, there is absolute
necessity also of keeping the kerosene lamps
trimmed ready to burn, and not leave them in
the condition of those carried by the foolish
virgins, for the gas may go out before We
have time to ''go to them that sell and buy
for ourselves"

Ministers are sometimes complained of for
preaching politics and praying politics. "I1l
never go inside that meeting house again. :"
exclaimed an angry poltician; ''our minister
does nothing but preach politics. Why, my
dear man, he did not name politics, as well as
l remember, in all his sermon" ''No, but
his prayer was full of it, and he prayed
against our party point blank "Why, what
do you mean? | did not notice it," Didn't
notice! Why did he not pray against bribery,
and ballot box stufing, and frauds at elections :;
and didn't he pray that corrupt men might be
defeated and honest and cody men be chosen
to rule over us? What was that but praying
against our party, l should like to know"
