WHAT 4 FALL WAS THERE.-Some
accidents there are, in small way,
which arc Justly entitled to be denomi-
mated calamities. Amongst this class
NAV be mentioned the falling of u mar
ket basket with its load of meats, pro-
duce and vegetables from the arms of the
trusting carrier, who places full conf.
dence in the handle, and dreams naught
of the obstruction that is impending to
his eatables. An instance of this kind
happened on Saturday morning at the
crossing by the round house, on the Is
land. The owner of the basket was just
returning from the market in lively
spirits, talking to a companion, and ut the
point referred to, the body of the basket
suddenly dropped, leaving the dilapi-
dated handle hanging from his arm.
Meat, eggs, pickles and potatoes scattered
in all directions while the horror-stricken
owner looked dumbfounded at his full
peck of trouble. No profanity was aud
ible but philosopher-like he commenced
repairing damages as best he could, by
asserting and replacing in his basket
that which was worth taking home. 1t
IS to be hoped the sharer of his domestic
bliss did not add further worry by fret
ting and scolding! all day and OCCASION
ally reverting to the uselessness OF
men anyhow, in general and particular.

From the
The preparations for the Twenty
second Annual Conclaye Of the State
Grand Commandery Knights Templar,
to be held in this city on the oath, 10Th
and Goth of the present month, are pro-
crossing favorably, and from present IN
dicatiOns it will be one OF the mos! I'M
posing demonstrations OF the KIND ever
witnessed here. The Committee of ar
engagements, composed Of fifty, Sii
Knights, have been busily employed.
and arrangements for the accom-
mediation of the visiting Sir knights are
about completed. The grand feature OF
the convocation will be the parade Oh
Thursday morning the 9th inst, as 1t Is
expected that there will be upwards OF
1000 Knights in line, fully equipped.
Members of a subcommittee are now
engaged in preparing decorations, when
will be displayed at various points along
the route of procession. Some forty
streamers. thirty-six feet long and three
feet wide, on which will be inscribed the
mottos and symbols of the order. Larger
streamers are being prepared for Allie
gheny. Nearly 1000 fancy flags,
and between 200 and 400 square
flags. upon which will be embazoned
suitable notices and symbols, have been
ordered. These special decorations will
be distributed along the line of march,
and will add very materially tothe effect.
The military will parade on the day pre-
ceeding, and will pass over the route Sc
lected for the knights. 1t Is expected
that persons residing ON the streets, who
will doubtless desire to made some dis
play for decoration day, will complete
their preparations in time for the demon
stration of the knights, as the latter in
tend to permit their own decorations to
remain until Sunday evening.
Another special feature will be the
public installation Of the Grand Com
manderv officers, at Library Hall, at
three o'clock on Thursday afternoon. The
hall will be profusely decorated, and in
addition to the interesting ceremonies
there will some excellent music. In the
evening grand banquet and hop will be
given at Liberty Hall, TO which only Sir
knights and their ladies will be admit

An IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTION 1t Il

fuence Of the sun. Some Of these trees
show evidence Of decay. Others will
decay prematurcly. Sidewalks, as
"A II rule, are wide. Pcdestri-
ans seldom walk between the line Of trees
and the curb. Now, the question occurs;
Why not take up the bricks between
those points and place sod in their stead?
Whether the bricks are replaced by Sods
or not. it il reasonable to believe that the
tree will grow and flourish better when

reach the curb for either mounting horses
or taking carriages, It Is simply necessary
10 let the bricks remain opposite the
ward gate. \ neat walk for this pur-
nose can be constructed with good taste.
Grass growing along the curb will add
wonderfully to the beauty ofthe street,
and it will certainly add to the length OF

THE PRETTY LITTLE MAID of honor whom
the Grand Duke Alexis married all unbe-
knownst to the old folks, appears to be as
spunky as she is beautiful. Alexis IL will be
remembered, was sent to America that he
might forget her, but while that plan cured
the Grand Duke IL didn't appease his bride
train, She went to Geneva, and recently 1t
appears that Count Shouvaloff was sent to
treat with her. 1t was proposed that she
should renounce all claim to the hand OF
Alexis, should change her name and diSap-
pear. In return for this service she would re-
ceive one million rubles down and an annui-
ty OF seventy-fve thousand rubles, woich
would be continued to her child In case the
latter survived her; but Mrs. Alexis wouldn't
do ii. She loved Alexis too much for that;
and so matters stand at present.
