The Patterson overseer of the poor in
sttuted suit against James Lee, short
time ago, to compel him to support his
wife and child, and the recorder before
whom the case was tried gave decision
against Lee The latter appealed the case
to the court of common pleas, and the ar
gument was made Saturday before Judge
Barkalow. The defence claimed that Lee
had obtained divorce in the state of Wis
consin, and offered the record of the court
with an affidavit made by the attorney who
procured the divorce, setting forth that no.
tice had been served on the absent wife
through the mail, but the letter had been
returned through the dead letter Office
Counsel for the city argued that no notice
had been served of the divorce, and alleged
that Lee was domiciled in Patterson, where
his family lived that he had gone 10 Wis
consin simply to obtain divorce on &C
count of the laXity of the law in that state.
Judge BarkalOw reserved his decision for
one week.
Judge B, late one CT the justices

ton in which one of the parties happened
to be namesakc of his. During the trial,
the party, having an opportunity, approach
ed the judge and said
"We are of the same name, judge. I've
been making inquiries, and lind we are
somewhat related to each other.
'Ah !" said the judge, lis that so Ale

'Oh, yes, said he, mo doubt of it.

to hear that-very glad indeed l shall get
rid of your case | shall dismiss it, be-
cause | cannot sit in a suit where ! am re-
lated to one of the parties"
This was little more than the party
had bargained for, and he began at once to
back off, after a few inquiries as to the
judges ancestry, and their residence etc.

taken. We are of different families, and

The Atlanhc for April has not as much
fine poetry as usual but is still a very good
number. Henry Jones serial Frederick
Hudson" goes on developing the character
of the hero showing that he, like most
men, is wonderfully susceptible to the in
fiuence of beautiful woman, and then
kindly furnishing him beautiful woman
to sit for model. The effect on the lady
he is engaged to this side of the water is
left for further numbers to disclose.
Mark Twain's "Bub pilot" experiences
go on. This is not so deliciously funny as
the former papers, but it shows greater
power of vivid description and more mas
terly use of language than anything Mark
Twain has written. f. Il. Sanborn has
another paper on John Brown. These pa
pers will doubtless be published in book
form. and will make valuable addition to
American history. The important piece of
the number is DIR. Holmes "Crime and
Automatism," psychological essay and
deeply interesting as all DR.. Holmes essays
are. The short stories are "The thing

And 10 that tear OF Pity quenched the flame
wherein 1t fell.
And with the sunshine OF that SMILE hope en-
tered into hell
! Two unveiled faces full OF Joy looked upward
TO the throne,
Four white wings folded at the feet Of Him who
sat thereon!
And deeper than the sound OF seas, more sof

Amidst the hush of wing and song, the Voice

Henceforth the sweetest song shall be the song

Among the crowd around hotel dinner
table yesterday, were husband and wife

train She was much the younger, and
fashionable withal, while he was like an old
bear. AS they sat down she was heard to
whisper
"Remember now and eat with your fork. I"
lie started off all right but. pretty soon,
she caught him feeding his mouth with his
knife, and she nudged him and whispered /;
you have forgotten; use your fork"
He commenced again; but it wasn't two
minutes before she had to prompt him once
more lie made still another start and an
other failure, and, as she whispered to him,
he threw down knife and fork and growl-
ed:
"Now, see here, Mary; it's twelve shil-
