The Way Nick Bowers was Caught.

Nick Bowers was member of tho
original Christy Minstrels, and, in his
day, was the greatest ''middle man in
torrogator" known in the profession -
Nick used to tell, with great mcrrimcnt,
an incident of his boyhood To preserve
the flavor of the relation, we will record
it in Nick's own language. and only re-
greet that we cannot accompany it with
his inimitable gesticuation.

boys, when | add that on the same after

there on the floor, totally overcome by
his libations, lay my respected daddy,
and beside him lay six shining half dol
lars which had rolled from his pocket. -

lars. Thinks | to myself, the old mans

into my fathers presence The old mans

and knew that storm was brewing.
Boys" said he, ''ast night when /
came home had six half dollars One
of ems gone. Your mother didn't take
| it. There's boon no one else in the
house. Which one of you took it ?"
We all protested our innocence.
Boys" said the old man, chat half
dollar never walked off, and I'm going
to find out which one Of you took it,"
Turning around he took down from
the wall an old nint-lock blunderbuss -
This he deliberately loaded with powder
and buckshot in our presence then fast
cning it upon the table, cooked it, took
scat behind it, holding the string in his
hand, and in solemn tones addressed US
thusly:
Boys, I'm going to discover the thief
and punish him at the same time. You
must each of you blow into the muzzle
of that gun. When the guilty one blows
off goes his head. Now then, you have
a chance; will you own up or blow up?'

brother, "have you got that half dollar p
''No, sir"

of light, sharp and vivid for an instant,
then utter darkness. A policeman. mis-
taking me for a thief, had gently tapped
me on the head, as is their usual custom,
and the thief escaped, and |, the victim,
was approhended. My appearance told
heavily against me, but my story being
corroborated by the boy at the barber
shop, 1 was released.
Upon examining the wallet I found
my money intact, and about $50 be-
sides. That is all the story.
"Not a bad speculation, after all, !"

"Well, perhaps not. No, it was not,
but still my advice holds good : Never

TERRIBLE RErRrBUTroN Not long
since seafarng man called at an inn on
the coast of Normandy, and asked for
supper and bed. The landlord and lady
were elderly people and apparently poor.
He entered into conversation with them,
invited them to partakc of his cheer, and
asked them many questions concerning
themselves and family and particularly of
son who had gone to sea when boy, and
whom they had long given over as dead.
The landlady showed him to the room
when she Quilted him he put a purse of
gold in her hand, and desired her to take
care of it until morning, pressed her af
fectionately by the hand and babe her
good night She returned to her husband
and showed him the gold. For its sake
they agreed to murder the traveller in
his sleep, which they accomplished and
buried the body. In the morning ear
ly came two or three relations, and asked
in joyful tones for the traveller who ar
rived there the night before The old
people seemed greatly confused, but said
that he had risen very early in the morn
ing and went away.
Impossible" said the relations; che
is your son, who has lately returned
from India and is come to make happy
the evenings of your days; and he re-
solved to lodge with you one night as
stranger, that he might see you alone,
and judge your conduct toward wayfar-
ing mariners" Language would be in
competent to describe the horror of the
murderers when they heard they had
dyed their hands in the blood of their
son. The body was found, and the
wretched murdercrs expiated their offence
on the scaiGold.

Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1873-06-06

A louisville lawyer lately met with a
singular mishap. His wife wanted waste
paper for the manufacture of certain
article of her dress, which may or may
not be properly called by a hustle, News
papers being scarce in that house. Mrs.
Attorney seized upon certain important
legal documents which she found in her
husbands office, and with them construc-
ted the desired appendage. The case in
which these papers were to be used came
on for trial, but in consequence Of Mad
ANS little theft they couldn't try it a
bit. An inquiry was instituted-in short,
there was row about them; and the
ingenious cuIprit confessed, restored the
dispositions and so forth, and we sup
pose took such lecture on grand larceny
from her husband as she never before
bad in her life.
