CIIcrMsTASrrAL Evidence Lon
don Globe publishes statement which
is an illustration of the danger of rely
ing upon circrmstantial evidence. ever
when 1T approaches pusitiveness. A
gentleman went to the British Museum
with an order to have a case opened
containing some valuable medals for
his inspection. He examined particu.
lar medal. which was supposed to be
unique, restored it to the tray, and af.
ter talking sometime with the custodi-
an, was about to leave, when the latter
discovered that the medal was missing.
1t was searched for everywhere, and
could not be found when it was suggest
ed that the pockets of the visitor should
be examined. To this he objected, and
policeman was sent for. However,
before he arrived, the medal was found
to have been slipped between the tray
aud the bottom of the case. When
asked why he refused to be searched,
the supposed culprit produced medal
from his pocket, the exact counterpart
of that which was in the case, and re-
marked that his object had been to YER
lfy the authenticity of his own, which,
being identified with the missing one,
and discovered in his pocket, would at
once have convicted him of the theft.

THE CASH GIRLS OF BOSTON.

Boston boasts of her educational adj
yantages, but nevertheless, many OF her
children receive no benefit from them.
The little cash girls OF Boston, accord
ing to the bureau of statistics OF Mas.
sachusetts, have hard time of it, and
they receive small pay. In the large
stores in Boston, for instance, these cash
or errand girls haven't five minutes leis-
ure at a time. In fancy goods stores
they are sometimes placed at counter
where small wares are for sale. 1t is
the practice among shop keepers to de-
duct from the pay Of those girls the
price of any article which they may
break. and the result is that when Sat
urday night comes the poor things have
hardly any money to carry home. The
articles are generally fragile, and are
broken by almost winking at them. In
one particular instance the mother OF
one of the children applied to the keep
er of shop for relief, but he said it
was the custom, although the child had
succeeded in selling the injured articles
at full price; the shop-keeper thus de-
frauding the little girl and getting a
larger amount than he would have 9th
erwise obtained for the toy. These cash
girls are paid from 81 30 10 s. per week
for running their little legs almost off
in response To the frantic cry OF cash.
In this connection tile commissioners
say they found large numbers of chill
drcn employed in city stores, manniac-
tories, Offices, etc, who attend no school

FoRrHooMrNa APPOINTMENTS Plush.
ed with SUCCESS, the Administration is
about to take some bold steps. It
fancies that it is strong enough to defy
public opinion, and, betow Offices upon
any OF it's favorites. no matter how little
they possess the public confidence. Thus
we hear it given ont that when the yene-
rable Justice Nelson retires IRON the
Supreme Court, as it is his intention
shortly to do, the President will appoint
that petty politician whom he raised
from obsourity at the Philadelphia Con-
vention. Thomas Settle, to the vacancy.
A more unfit selection, for the highest
Judicial position in the land, can hardly
be imagined. Why is it that the great
Republican lawyers, who would be
proud of such an elevation. the Evartses,
Fieldses, Merediths, Binghams and
Hoars-are slighted. and man of noto-

The joys OF my childhood,
How dim they appear
Yes, dim are the brightest
When looked on from here.
Then stay not, then mourn not,
Then yield not TO fears.
