WILLIAM WHITE sued a New York
railroad company fourteen years ago for
81 600 damages for killing his wife, but
getting tired out he took $50 the other
day and called it square. His second
wife used the money to get her a silk
dress.

To the Ward Relief Committees:
LADIEs:-Although the Soup House
has been put in successful operation for
the relief of transient applicants, II VII!
in that aspect accomplish but mite OF
what is sought to be accomplished by
the Association. The more important
demand is for the relief of destitute fami-
lies. There are those among our citi-
zens who do not admit that absolute des-
titution exists among families In any
part of the city The manag-
ing and dispensing committees
must, on the very nature OF
the case. rely upon the various ward COM
mittees for facts as to the ertent Of des't-
tuition. You are therefore urgently re-
quested to ascertain as definitely as n
hurried preliminary canvass will war
rant, the probable amount and character
of immediate relief required by families
in your respective wards, and report the
same to the meeting ofthe Managing and
Soup House Committees, to be held at
No. 12l0 Market ttreet, next door
to street car Office, on Thursday
next, at 10 o'clock. You
need not necessarily wait for II
supply of family relief tickets, nor for
the soliciting cards, with which you will
be supplied in the course of n day or two.
The Supply Committees possess the
means for relieving the immediate wants
Of families as soon a such wants are
made known to them.
All members of the Ward committees
and especially those members who can
give definite information of destitutionS),
are requested to attend the meeting on
Thursday morning.

TALE OF A DoG.-Several nights ago,
two well known young gentlemen, were
the accidental subjects of an adventure
which will probably result in the abbre-
Walton of their lives by several years.
They retired to bed in the most cheerful
mood, but Just as they were
yielding to the soperifc influences, an
ominous noise greeted their ears
In moment they were wide awake and
not little frightened. The sounds were
repeated and the Y. &. were almost dis
tracted, the suspicion having crawled
over them that the room had been in
vaded by robbers. We might here re-
mark, parenthetically as it were, that
the parties referred TO never had the
iim-iams. But with our tale.
For hours they lay buried
in their blankets, every moment expect
ms the imaginary burglars 10 make All
assault on them and rob them of all their
personal property. At every recurrence
of TIE noise their CONSERVATION in
creased, and by the morning they were
but shadows of their former selves.
They awaited with fear and
trembling the dawn of day, and
when the first streaks of light pierced the
windows, they peeped from under their
blankets to investigate the cause oftheir
troubles. Seeing nothing they arose and
instituted thorough search, which re-
suited in finding small dog whose tail
had entaled all the misery on them by
coming in contact with the floor or bed
post. The most remote reference to the
tale Of the dog in the presence OF these
young men, is sufficient to cause them to
vamoose.
