One of the most alarming cases Of
somnambulism with which we are ia
miliar, is that Of prize package boy
who operates on the Norristown Rail
way in this city. By some extraordi-
nary combination of circumstances,
this child of sin was induced to go to
church few Sundays ago, and while
listening to the sermon he fell asleep
in the back pew where he sat. There
had been a Sunday school meeting
there before church, and all the Bibles
and missionary newspapers were piled
cp in that particular pew. Suddenly
this remorseless young orphan picked
up bundle of the papers in his sleep
and began to walk up the aisle, throw
ing one into each pew as he went
along When he got under the lee
of the pulpit he stopped and waited
two or three minutes. The minister
looked cross eyed at him and glared
at him through his spectacles but the
Young brigand was unconcious. Then
he glided down the aisle, and amazed
the congregation by removing the
papers from each pew. When he
reached the rear he seized an armful
of Bibles and rambled up the aisle
again, tossing them at the occupants
OF the pews.
Resting again under the pulpit, and
wholly Indifferent to the circumstance
that the clergyman's eyes again were
ont of their natural straight position,
and we're making his spectacles look
like le-barreled locomotive |
the infant brigand pranced
down the aisle the second time yelling,
Here's your prize packages, only ten
cents each one contains prize worth
from ten cents to S1O!' and grabbing
for the Bibles as he proceeded. The
minister waved his hand at one of
the deacons; the deacon and the sex
ton charged on that boy, and the
organist tells us the three scudded
down that thoroughfare at the rate of
fifteen knots an hour, while the sexton
shook the boy up, and the deacon
boxed his ears, and wished it was not
wicked to swear. Then they took
him up into the steeple and killed J

DISASTROUS FIRE IN ElvaNa.-A dis

Disastrous FIRE IN EAvANA.-A dis
patch dated Havana, Sept. 8, says:
The ere OF Saturday night, by which
the Plaza-Vaper was destroyed, was very
disastrous. The total loss is varioUsly
estimated at from $4,000, 000 to IS, 000,-
600. The insurance will only amount
to $4,000. nearly all in English com
panies. Notices were promptly given
that all assurances would be paid on the
18th inst. Owing 10 the rapidiiy with
which the flames spread very little pro-
perty was saved. Ii less than three
hours from the time the fire broke out,
the entire square was mass of ruins.
Upwards of $500 people vino occupied
the buildings are homeless, and nearly
all have lost everything. Great distress
prevails among them, and numerous
subscriptions have been started for their
relief, and large amount OF money has
been already raised.

UNCLE SAM IN TIE CHEESE BUSINESS
Tuesdays San Francisco Ctroaic,e has
the following:
Sui. was instituted in the United
States Circuit Court yesterday by the
United States against the Central Pacific
Railroad to recover 49, boxes Edam
cheese, shipped from the East by rail for
the use of the troops on this coast. 1t
appears that the cheese was brought to
Ogden by the Union Pacific, where it
was transferred to the Central Pacific,
which paid the cost of transportation to
that point and brought the cheese to
this city. The corporation now demands
of the Government pay for the charges
from Ogden to this city, and refuses to
deliver the cheese until the money is
paid. Uncle Sam sues to compel the
corporation to deliver the cheese or pay
its value, 5000, claiming that the bill
for freight should be credited on the
interest account CT the Company's bonds.
The Company admit the claim and are
willing to accept certificate of payment
for the amount due for the freight over
the Central Pacific road: but they aver
that, not knowing the freight to be for
the United States, the employees of the
Central Pacific paid to the agents Of the
Union Pacific the freight to Ogden in
cash, and they ask the Government to
refund the money thus paid out. The
goods being plainly marked, Mr.. Latimer,
the United States District Attorney, con-
tends that if the freight charged by the
Union Pacific was SO paid, the Central
Pacific Railroad should look to that
Company for the restitution of the
money, and not to the Government.

WHAT HAPPENED TO \ GALLANT ST. LOUIS
JUDGE AT NARRAGANsETr PIER.
Judge Jones of circuit court No. ), has
been recuperatlng at Narragansett Pier for
several weeks, where his gallantry made
him universal favorite with the ladies.
The Judge exerted himself to the utmost to
make himself agreeable, and was so sue
cesstul that the fair boardcrS in time came
to consider no excursion or drive complete
without Judge Jones, while the timid ones
would not trust themselves in the surf
without his protecting arm
This state of things was highly satismc-
tory to all but few of the gentlemen, who
felt jealous of Judge Jones popularity.
The ladies felt grateful to Judge Jones,
and Judge Jones enjoyed the society of the
ladies', while the jealous few smothered
their wrath and waited Tor revenge. They
had it one evil day, when the clouds hung
dark and low over the beach. The Judge
had not intended to battle that day, as the
river was chilly and the wind raw. He was
afraid Of catching cold, and he felt cold,
but the ladies wished to battle. The judge
feebly demonstrated, but was overrulcd.
He had never before hesitated when asked
to watch over his fair friends in the surf,
and could not do so then, so bathing suits
were donned, and the party trpped across
the beach and entered the water. The party
was large at first, but the water was cold,
and one by one, they walked dripping and
shivering away to find warmth and comfort
in dry clothes. The judge wanted to 90,
too, but could not until the last of his flock
was frozen out, and it would have been i'm
polite to insist on an adjournment until
they were ready to go. lie was congrat.
ulating himself that it could not last much
longer, and was vainly endeavoring to con-
ceal his distress shown in blue lips and
chattering teeth, when frightful accident
occurred, which the judge then thought suf-
ficient to embitter the whole of his after
life. His bathing suit was far from roomy
in fact, it fitted his manly form almost too
closely, and the shrinking of the cloth in
the water, or some contortion of his, caused
n sudden report. The judge felt that some
thing had given way, and furtively exam
ined the pantaloons and the huge rent as
we'll as he could without breaking his neck
or using mirror. He found that he was
not In party costume, and Immediately OK.
