THE MAN WITHOUT FEEr.-- For the
past few days footless man has been il
Phoebe. He may be seen at almost any
time, on Meadow Valley street, wher,
he walks around ON his knees. and make.
living by various means. The othel
day he was selling number of canes
manufactured by himself. He doe
everything that man in his situatio,
can do to earn livelihood. His las
new departure was the establishment
OF peculiar game, in which any one cal
WIN by simply tossing ring over al
upright iron pin fixed in board. Yes
terday evening, a crowd was collecte,
around him, on Meadow Valley street
near Main. By paying twenty-five cents
any one was allowed to win twice tina
sum each time that he might toss one O
the SIX rings over any one of the pin
which had half-dollar at its feet. But
though the thing appeared very simpl
indeed, at the first glance, those VIII
tried it spent their small change, almos
uniformly, without any gain. "Lo" tn
poor Indian was represented in tn
crowd; and one of his family, certain G
winning the hslf-dolars which shone be
fore his wishful eyes, invested his la,
two bits, and amidst the cheers of III
crowd-lost it. Another of the aborie
ues staked white man, just to sc
h Ie iun. HIS money went to join that {
