Got a Free Passage.

The San Francisco Chronicle of Jan. 13
says: About two months ago William
Blake, a member of the little Board of
Stock Brokers. abscOnded with about s.,
600 funds belonging TO his associates. The
Board passed a resolution setting apart
$1,000 to be expended in his capture. Tel
grams were sent in every direction eX-
planning the matter and containing direc-
tiOns fo- his immediate apprehension. In
a short time cheering answer was receiV-
ed from KalOma, Washington Territory,
announcing that the Chief of Police of that
burgh had captured an individual who an
sweied to the description of the missing
broker. Detective John Coffey was i'm
mediately dispatched to that town armed
with a requisition. He arrived safely and
received his prisoner, who acknowledged
being William Blake and expressed de-
sire to return home at once. They de-
parted for Portland, Oregon, where they
were given some trouble by reason of the
Vaccinations of Police Court shystcrs,
who. without knowing or even seeing the
prisoner, and without his knowledge, but
with the evident design of forcing the de-
tective TO pay the money, procured writ
of habeas corpus returnable on the 18th
instant. The boat for San Francisco was
W sdll OH HuTsudy Idst, anu inc uSltCtlNe
was compe led to pay the shysters S25 to
withdraw the writ so that he could start
on the steamer for this city. The steamer
arrived here this morning and the detec-
tive conveyed his prisoner to the city pris-
on. L. j. l.. Smiley, President of the lit
tie Board, visited the prisoner, and, after
conversing with him for few moments
informed the astonished detective that the
prisoner was not Blake. A brief cOllOquy
with the prisoner confirmed the discovery.
1t appears that the prisoner, whose name
is Jones and who is bricklaver, being ar
rested in KalOma for Blake owing to his
remarkable resemblance of that individual,
and being anxious to return to his wife
and family residing at Alameda, conceived
the idea OF obtaining free passage, and en-
acted his part so well that he was brought
to this city. Mr.. Smiley says that Jones
is perfect image of the abscOnding broker,
even TO lisp in his voice. Detective Cef-
fey is breathing vengeance on the Port
land shysters who outwitted him so
shrewdly.
The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1875-02-11
The Empress and the Artist.

Lucy Hooper, in her Paris letter to the
Philadelphia Press, tells the following ro-
mantle little story: ''It appears that dur
ing the latter years of the En-
pire the attention of the Empress, who
ever has been distinguished as an intelli-
gent and munificent patrOness of art, was
called to the works of a rising young
painter-a Spaniard or an italian by birth
who had just completed his studies and
had achieved admission to the Salon. She
was pleased with his pictures; purchased
several of them. and gave him a commits
sion for two or three others. Finally, at
his earnest solicitation, she consented TO sit
to him for her portrait, which proved to be
a striking likeness and a most remarkable
work of art. From that time forward the
young painter haunted assiduOusly every
public place where he could obtain a
glimpse of his fair and Royal patrOness.
When she went to the theager or the opera
he invariably occupied the Orchester-stall
in front of the Imperial box, and when she
drove out he sought to cross her path in
order to obtain from her one of those
graceful bows and one of those sweet.
melancholy smiles which she always be-
slowed with such courtesy upon those
who Saluted her. At last came the war.
and Sedan and the Republic, and park, and
theater, and opera-box knew that fair face
no more. Deprived of even those passing
gHmpses of the Imperial lady, the young
artist became mOrOse, gloomy, and miSan-
thropical {; he shut himself up in the soli-
tude of his studio, and employed himself
chiefly in reproducing his portrait of the
Empress. work which met with a ready
sale among the friends of Imperialism in
Paris, from its intrinsic merits no less than
the fidelity ofits likeness. The other day
he was found lying dead in his studio. with
pistol shot through his head, and with
the discharged pistol still clutched in his
lifeless hand"

4 Buttermilk Bath.

1t is said that buttermilk will remove
sunburn, and we've been told that it re-
moves freckleS. We are not authority for
either statement, but couple of men who
drove along North Pearl Street this morn
ing about O'Clock, and who turned rather
too all of sudden into State, are.
What they don't know about the effect of
buttermilk when applied externally to the
human form can properly be set down as
not worth knowing. You see they were
seated in low sleigh. and at their backs
We're two barrels filled to the brim with
the fOaming buttermilk which cheers and
removes tan, but don't inebriate.
We can't say how it came to pass,
whether one of the sleigh-runners caught
in the horse-car track, or whether the
the driving was careless, or whether the
