\ HATEFUL paragraphist says: "When-
ever person sitting alongside of a woman
in the street car gets up to leave, in nine
cases out of ten the woman will imme-
diately try to spread herself so as TO cover
the vacant seat as well as her own. In the
present scant skirt fashion the effort to do
this from mere force of habit is mere funny
than effective"

Az English cOckney let house near
London to a New Yorker, on q seven years
lease, for ESQ year. When, after two
or three years, the tenant wanted to move,
he sub-let for the remainder ofthe term for
200 year, the best price he could get.
After the lease had expired, the New
Yorker discovered that he had sub-let to his
own landlord, and had thus paid the cock
ney ECO year to live in his own house.

IT is reported that the emissaries Of
modern civilization are going to run rail-
road right through Nubia. This is to be
regretted, more particularly on account of
Coleridge's "Abyssinian Maid" who might
be banging around that neighborhood with
her dulcimer, and eventually subjected to
so much ''spsrling' as TO forget all about
Mount Abora and Kubla Khan.

A LADY in Maine had a dream which
was not all dream. There was a painful
reality about it. She dreamed that her
husband, who was leader of a choir in the
village, was too intimate with one of the
young ladies who sang in II. Her dream
told her that, in a trunk in the girls posses
sion, she would find all her husbands
amorOus letters. So powerful was the in
fluence of the vision that the wife searched
the girls trunk, and there found packet
of letters, as she half-expected. The choir
numbers one less than it did; the leader
has tried arnica and hair-restorers in vain,
and has been compelled to resign the baton,
through the influence of an empty dream

A SINGULAR case, which occurred many
years aco'in one of the rural towns of Yer
mont, is thus described by the Rutland,
(Vt.) Herald: captain A. shot and killed
a dog belonging to his neighbOr. Smith.
This act was charged upon one e., and a
suit was brought against him TO recover
damage. The case was tried by jury
before Justice of the Peace, and Captain
A. sat as a juror. CircumStantial evidence
was presented to prove that G. shot the
dog, and the jury agreed TO return a verdict
of guilty. Several years after the trial
Captain A. acknowledged that he killed the
dog, and defended his course of rendering
verdict Of guilty against G. en- the
ground that his jurors oath required him
to decide the case according to law and
evidence, and it was fairly proved, he said.
