A most unfoitunat man is Mr..
Budd of Sacramento. Mr.. Budd
is a dealer in fish, and was natur-
ally of a sentimental turn of mind.
Conceiving an affection for another
lady than his wife, he wished to be
rid of the latter, and accordingly
gave a scoundrel 81, 900 to put her
out of the way, with the promise
of $500 more as soon as the job was
accomplished.
Budd and the scoundrel qullrclcd,
however, and what should the
scoundrel do but go to the wife and
tell her the entire plan! Then the
two latter concocted a cruel fraud
upon Mr.. Budd, the result of which
was that Mrs, Budd disappeared,
and the scoundrel reported that he
had drowned her, and received his
$500. The present condition and
whereabouts Of the lady are not
known; but Mr.. Budd is in the
hands of the authorities, and viii
probably be permitted to sec hi,

SaiIie'> bedtime.

A father, not very far from here
read in the paper the other morning
that the Utica girls who want their
heaux to 60 home the same night
they call, pull string at The prop
CT hour, which reverses a picture,
on the back of which appears the
words: Ten o'clock is my bed
time
This father, who has \ daughter
gwen to late hours when n certain
youth sits mp and helps her to keep
them, thought he would try this
Utica plan, so he wrote in large
characters, on the back of 4 huge
portrait of George Washington, this
inscription
"TES O'clock Is sALLIE's BED
TIME.'
Then he arranged the picture 50
that when he attached II string TO
the frame he could reverse it from
his bed-chambcr. But when Sallie
entered the room an hour later her
aesthetic eye was outraged by OBJ
serving the portrait of George
hanging slightly out of plumb, so
to speak, and in adjusting it her
fathers little game was revealed in
all its subtle ingenuity.
Sallie was not a Utica girl, how
ever, so she just went to work and
neatly effaced the letter co." leaving
the / standing solitary and upright
which, you will observe, made q
few hours difference in her bedtime
That night, as usual, Sallic received
a visit from her young man, an6
her patcrnal parent attached string
to q. WIS portrait and retired tC
MS uOWny cOucn.
