L"vee Company Stock.

The types made us put up the stock of
the I.evee Company to fabulous figure.
We wrote Sc 90 (six) per share, but the
types converted it, without half trying.
into 5000 (six hundred dollars) per share.
If stock could be made to rise as easily as
types can make it, we should all be worth
our millions.

A DINNER At TIE OAKS.-It may not be
generally known that most excellent din
ucr-eountry style-can be procured ut The
Hotel Renaissance de Chenis Vertes," To-
Gated at the City Park. In addition to all
of the delicacics of the season, vegetables
raised on the spot), guests are treated to

scActaim with astOnishment and admiration.
Th@e we find the Lion and the Lamb, the
Elephant and Mouse, the Tiger and the
Gnu, and many other animals, strangers to
u ,tural history. Mr.. Jean Marie Saux, the
proprietor, takes particular pleasure ia ex-
hibting to his guests these specimens Of the
si,se arts, and no higher compliment can
Ssr paid him than an expression of admira-
aion af his pictures. To such an extent can

knew of, comprising Messrs. Nd, P-t.
P-r, Nh and B-l, succeeded in procuring
a most excellent dinner, with wine, in return
for their Gathering remarks upon the picture
gallery. Their car fare to return to the city
WAS even rendered; but our Bohemians
grssefnlly declined, promising to return
again and to dine with "mine host" whose
aibesality was only exceeded by the excel
I ence of his dinner.

The Portland (Maine) Press says that,
scratched his name on nickel cent and
sent it on its travels. Eighteen months
after, this cent came into the possession 0
a Lowell acquaintance, who marked his
name upon it, Two years later it turned
up III Pennsylvania, and came into the
bands of former chum of the Portlander.
Recognizing the name, he inscribed his also
on the coin. One day this week, the man
who started the cent on It's travels was
snaking a purchase in Lowell store, when
the identical nickel which left his pocket
i've years ago was handed to him in change.

The Willie ms InvestiS ion

The Committee on Expenditures of the
Department of Justice are steadily pushing
their investigation into the affairs of the
Western Judicial District of Arkansas. The
evidence already taken disclOses a large
amount of corruption, and inculpates Judge
Story and other prominent officials of loyal
turn Of mind. Cases were made up for the
sole purpose of making bills of costs and
fees, many of which were never brought to
trial. The question arises, why were not
these abuses punished and corrected by the
Executive Department of the Government
as the United States District Attorney and
Marshal are both appointed by the President
and without their cOnnivance these frauds
Government.
In a Cincinnati hospital woman's skull
was so much eaten away by cancer that
the brain was exposed. Her death being
inevitably near, the attending surgeon
thought it no harm 20 experiment upon her
in the interest of medical science. He in
troduced steel needles, and applied weak
current Of electricity. The patient, al
though conscious. did not feel the punctures
of the needles in the brain, but experienced
tingling pain in the hands and arms. When
the surgeon reported his experiments to the
local Academy of Medicine there was some
criticism of his conduct, as he admitted that
the womans death might have been
fastened by it. His defense was that she
could not possibly have recovered, and the
value Of the experiments was very great.
