of the party, Charles Goodwin, better
known as "Shayy," and James .Ashim,

..uON::Sr JOHN BOOTH"

We have several times had occasion
[, refer to John Booth. of the Belmont
Courier. That he is q dishonest old
puppy. wholly unworthy of the conf
dcnce or esteem of honorable gentle
men. is shown by the following from
the Phoebe Record of the 18th instant.
That journal. in commenting on an
item from the SENTINEL d~cnouncing
the aforesaid Booth is a fraud and u
cheat, thus alludes TO him:
The Sentinel evidently refers to an
individual who was ambitious of being
known rs Honest John Booth but
pursued a most singular line OF con-
duet 10 establish his claim to that rog-
noren. lie anne In Phoebe. with
what we will not pretend TO
say: but on the REPRESENTATIONS ANA
support OF too Coniidlng friends, he ac-
uuirvd a one fourth interest i'll the
hccorf, of hich lie was given the full
control. He Soou aftcrward awaited
himself OF his position to sell the Rec
orti for the promotion OF the interest OF
certain par,ic IL an important law suit
for a good round sum-. which he
took particular care to pocket. know-
inr that his Partners were entirely
opposed 10 mcdilin- in such matters.
he took especial pains TO Keep these
proceedings a profound secret. but. as
such things generally do. they finally
leaked out. On being charged with
bad faith i'll thus compromising his
partners. he III first denied 1t, but on
being closely pressed. he said: If
did receive ANYTHING. it was purely as
a personal favor 10 myself This was
altogether too thin. and rs he had thus
fundamentally .ie~oPardiIed the bust
ness of his partners. Honest john
was forced 10 sell his interest in the
RccoJri, this time giving his deed.
Though he had such remarkably ex-
centric notions Of meUyt and tHHH this
man Booth had a weakness for being
known by the cndcarin- appellative Of
..Honc>t john As an evidence of
which. We will say that While owning
a fourth of the Record. this %''lIone>t
John" had occasion To take a trip 10
the West. California. etc.. hut before
he went. he Lett orders with The editor
of the Record To copy all notices of
Booths visits TO the offices of other
papers. for he intended 10 visit quite Il
number. In the notices thus copied
the editor was always To refer to him
as "IIonaSt John" for he wanted to
establish a reputation for probiiN
throughout the state, as he intended: TO
become Il candidate for State Printer or
some other office. and being known by
that name would accomplish his pur-
pose. How we'll lie deserved the title
the readers of the foregoing are we'll
qualified to judge. He will vet live to
learn that not only j. honesty the best
policy. but it i essential to practice the
maxim as we'll as to preach the the
DRY. Il is IL opinion that he will not
be the next SAFE Printer.

A GARMAN IDEA OF THE Future

The following is the translation of

conveys an idea of the German esti-
mate Of the coming American hotel:
Tho latest American progress i'll
building will be the Mammoth Hotel.
soon to be erected in Chicago. The
enormous hotel is to have = frontage
of three English miles long, and a
depth of six miles; the height-sev-
enty-seven stories-will measure $3.50
feet from the ground floor to the roof.
The hotel will have no stairs, but five
hundred balloons will always be
ready to take visitors up to their
rooms. No room walters are to be
employed, but visitors will be served
by newly patented automaton, put
up-in every bedroom, who will do all
shaving, shampooning, etc., for the
guests, by a very simple and ingcn-
ious mechanism. Suppose the guest
requires hot water, the automaton will
be able to call down stairs, "a bucket
of water to room No. l,0O2, l07," and
the water will be up in eve seconds,
by a patented elevator. Half an hour
before tabte de hote, instead of ringing
the bells, a gun ltwenty-four-poundert
will be fired on each floor, 10 call the
guests to get ready for their meals.
The tables in the dlning-rooms will
measure iour miles each, attendance
to be performed by twelve walters on
horseback on either side Of the table.
Music during table de hote will be
played gratis, by eight bands of sew
enty-seven mel each. For the cOnve-
nience of visitors a railway will be
built Oh each floor, as well a. telegraph
