BOSS BAGSaAw.

Boss Bagshaw was cpbbler,
Once livin' al Bulls Head
Wherr long he waXed strong and lat,
As we'll as his shoe thread.
And though he sOwed not what he reaped
He ripped what he had sewed
And had almost apostolic Care
For way worn Soles he sewed.
The boss a doctor never was,
Though often did lie heel;
And kips and caves he did cut up,
As for the pupil veal.
Though he could neither write nor read,
The shOelrSs were aware
ThatiOr The understanding he
Did cXcrc sc a Care.
No evil fortune, small or great,
Could make his spirits lall !;
He even sang right merrily,
When once he lost his awl.
And even to his dying day,
81 o. Bagshaw be IL told,
He Gever sold leaky boot,
Though such he oft half-soled.
Once he, from too much drink was in
A state OF lethar gy,
When thieves made OoOty of his shoes.
And with them they did flee.
When they came to, say he, lfI
Gel once upon their tracks,
For haVin' stolen my stock
They'll get shOemaker's whacks.
That afternoon one thief he ketched,
Which quickly came to grief;
For boss he went from yelling shoes
To wellin' of the the thief.
The NJ. P.'s ketched another one,
Maxim out of town,
Aud when the tibet was taken up
He seemed quite taken down.
Boss piled his trade for thirty years.
Or somewhat IhrreabOuI,
For, he though long pegsin' in,
Was longer peggin' out
But Bagshaw couldn't always live
Like cobblers in the past
He one day from the last did go,
10 COME unto his last.

our steps; and on every day of our

She said, Of course, she woIld do without the
horse.
But the sfilction was suddenly and unexpect-
edly removed. My horse had a singulsrly brief
tail, and l thought that it might be tn At some
OF his violent demo nstrati0Es In the stable were
induced by his inability to switch off the flies
which lighted upon sensitive portions of the
body. lt occurred TO me to get him up an art-
fetal tail for home use, and procured piece

which that horse had occ ssiOued had, thus far,
been particularly small, the notion had pecu-
liar attractiveness.
unrsveled about eighteen inches of the
rope. and fastened the other end TO the horses
tail. This, L estimated, would enable him 70
switch hy off the very end OF his nose when he
had acquired little practice. Unfortunately,
i neglected to speak to the hostler upon the
subject, and when he came to the stable that
evening he examined the rope and concluded
kind of hitching strap, so he tied the horse to
the stall that night by his artificial continue
ton. By morning the feed box was kicked
into kindling wood, and the horse was standing
on three legs with the other leg caught in the
hay-rack, while he had chewed up two of the
best boards in the side OF the stable in front OF
him.
Subsequently, / explained the theory to the
man, and resdjusted the rope. But the patent
tail annoyed the hostler so much while curry
ing the horse that he tied stone to IL TO hold IL
still. The consequence was that, in a moment
of unusual excitement, the horse swung the
stone around and inflicted severe wound upon
the mans head. The man resigned the next
morning.
l then concluded to introduce an improve
ment. l purchased some horse hair aud placed
il upon the tail so neatly that it had the ap-
pearance of natural growth. When the new
man came he attempted to comb out the horses
tail, and the added portion came of in his hand.
He had profound confidence in his veterinary
skill, and he imagined that the occurrence in
Dictated n diseased condition of the horse. So
he purchased some powders and gave the AMI
NAL an enormous dose in a bucket of warm
"mash." In half an hour that pestilentlal horse
was seized with commissions, during which he
kicked out the stab'e-dOor, shattered the stall
TO pieces, hammered four more boards out of
the partition, dislocated his Off hind leg, and
expired In frightful agony.
He was more urbane after death than he h al
been during his life, and contemplated his re-
mains without shedding a tear. He was sold 70

pose AS a contributor to the national stock of

The Romance of Divorce.
THBEE WIVES CoNTESTING MATEIMoNI
RIGHTS,

THREE WIVES CoETESTING MATRIMONIAL
RIGHTS.
One OF the curious situations into which sep
aratiOn and divorce laws sometimes place an
unfortunate Benedict has been Disclosed IN a
case which has Just been argued in the General
Term OF the Supreme Court on an appeal by
the husband from an order sustaining exCep-
tons taken by one OF his wives to the report
OF a referee. Walter ". Price, when a minor
married in 1899, in Birmingham, England. Su-
He lived with her abouc a year and then left
her, coming 70 this country. They had previ-
Ously signed deed of separation in Law, 1913
and III the following September she was marri-
ed 70 q man named Green. "A month afteryard
Price married Caroline juliet Barton, and i've
children were born, all of whom have now at
tanned their ma jOTity. In October 1854, he mar
lied his third wife, having, meanwhils, obtain
ed divorce from the second one. After his
third marriage the second wife filed an appli-
cation TO have the decree OF di vorce opened so
that che could come In, claiming she had been
deceived III the nature and prosecution of the
proceedings between her and her former hus-
appeared with an application to be allowed 70

ing that the second wife had instituted her pro-
ceedings through collision with Price, her own
husband. IL appeared at the same time tina
the first wife was living, and the referee, to
whom the matter was submitted, denied her an
plication, and reported that both the second and
third marriages where invalid. The third Mrs
Price excepted TO this, insisting ,lat she had
not had any opportunity to defend her rights,
ard that. therefore, the referees report WAS
erroneous, 80 far as IL declared her own m ar
rage invalid When the Judge at Chambers

case went on an appeal to the General Term

1t does not take a long preparation for a mar
rage If the loving couple mean business. j. ..
Adams, of Michigan, lad lived bachelor till
he was forty, and had no time to lose. He went
into dress-making shop in Detroit one morn
ing and asked the head business an II she
could make merIno dress by three O'Clock in
the afternoon. She said she could. John Quincy
went out and came back Immediately leading
an Audrey looking girl of about seventeen
wearing calico dress and straw hat. She
had a bundle of stuff for a Dress under her
arm. She agreed to help to make the dress,
and sat down at a sewing machine and helped.
John walked up and down in front of the shop,
as a constant admOnition that he was superil-
tending the contract. The gown was finished on
time and the girl put in it. In the meantime
John had hailed preacher looking man and
asked him If he could hitch-up a couple for
life. He said that was branch of his business
He was retained. Jonn asked the prophet
OF the shop ii she any objection TO the use of
the dress where il was made. She had not and
so John Quincy Adams and the Michigan Au-
drey stood up and were married in that dress
making sanctuary. John emptied his pockets
of nickels and pennies, all the money he had, a
bushel in bulk, 50 % by count, and gave il TO
the preacher for having detained him. And
that business pair walked out into the vide
world, arm in arm, looking happy. Bliss is
cheap in Michigan.

sequently he caused the arrest of the brakem, On,
Thomas C0rwin, Peter Boice, and Thomas
Shaw. The trial occupied two days, and was
concluded on Friday. Judge Barkaiow, on Sat
urday charged the jury that the ticket was a
mem orandum of contract, and was good only
one way. The fact that il had been custom ary
to accept them either way did not establish 4
legal precedent. The company had right to
charge one sum on the train aud another at the
offices, provided that neither was greater than
