Railway corruption, with Carpenter de-

the sale OF fraudulent bonds. Many
counties of Missouri are agltated by the

fornia finds that the purchase of
situations by teachers is becom-
ing a common practice, and the school
board of San Francisco Furnishes that
sort OF bribery of school directors only
by vote of censure of the corrupt di-
rector, while the poor teachers are i'll
dignantly dismissed. But there is hope
for that city, because Hammond has
waged a winter campaign with the sim

close scrutiny would reveal corruption

Passover Week.

A New York correspondent thus de.
scribes the business of Passover week
among the Israelitish shopmen in New
York:
Groceries and provisions of all kinds
used by Israelites during the Passover
week are prepared with great care and
caution, to prevent their mixture with
leayened food, their custody and sale
being confided most exclusively to men,
bers of the faith, who at once know
what is wanted, and may be trusted
properly to provide it. There are shops
scattered all over this city Jewish
grocery shops-SOme of the oldest and
most widely -known being in Catharine
street and its immediate neighborhOod
which are crammed with Passover ma
terial OF this nature, ranging from spices
and pickles to dried fruits and fine
pastry and confectionery, from Pass
over wines and liquors to Passover
honey and h0rseradisn. Dried fruits of
unusual excellence and rarity are i'm
ported especially for this holiday week,
and SO are the wines and liquors. Pickles
from Holland and honey from Germany
are delightful TO see, and macaroons ana
sponge cake are laid up in great store.
A -four made OF potatoe-a kind OF pota-
toe MEALS also much sold, being used
in place of wheat -four, the former being
fit, without the aid OF any OF the for
hidden leaven, for the preparation of the
choicest pastry.
These articles, being both choicer
and attended with greater labor and
care, are also more expensive than Or
dinarily ;.but whoever buys them may be
sure that NO morsel of bread has ever
touched. them; that beside the wine press
no reckless fellow ever munched sand
wich, and that the baker or the maca-
rooms drank no larger beer over the
trough. The strictness with which the
slightest possibility OF contamination by
contact with leavened food or drink is
guarded against, is almost incredible.
The quantity of these articles sold
during the Passover is as unusual as
their quality. The Israelite lives we'll
during that week, and would rather
pinch at some other time than miss any
Passover luxury. They lay in big
stock before the festival sets in, and the
Jewish grocery shops have lively times.
Fresh Passover milk Is also to be had at
these places every day during Passover.
Passover milk differs from that Of the
rest OF the year only in the fact that it is
drawn from the COW into can that has
never touched leayened food, and usu-
ally by Jewish milknan with scrupu-
lodsly washed hands, or atlsast in the

Court GuL{innS.

In the case OF the city for the use OF
John Hayes and others against John
Bickel and others, suit to enforce q
paving assessment for the improvement
Of portion OF Gutter street, the Court
rendered judgment that the cost of the
improvement could not be imposed upon
the abutting owners. The defense
claimed that part of the work was done
by the Ross Hammer, and that the city
had no right to employ this patent pro-
cess. On this point the Court decided
that it was within the power of the City
Council to use patent process in the
Improvement OF the streets when they do
80 in accordance with the methods pre-.
scribed by law in obtaining bids.
In the case of Levi j. w Workum against
Bernard Cam, suit upon note exc
cuted in Texas, to which, among other
defenses plea of the statute of limita-
tions i'll Texas was set up, the Court held
that the statute of limitations of the
place where the suit is brought, and not
where the note is made, governs, and
rendered Judgment for the plaintiff, the
note not having been barred in this
State.

He Kept asJOurnaI.

Keller Is one of those men who are al
ways prating to young 'uns about the
lazlness of the present generation, and
how different it used to be when they
were boys-how they had to toll and
sweat, from daylight to dark, ETC..
Now Keeler, ir., is precocious
youngster, and don't go any too much
on what the old gentleman says about
such matters; and when, in rummaging
through the old gentleman's desk one
day he found his grandlather's journal,
carefully preserved, he concluded that
he had found bit OF choice reading, land
forgot his surroundings, or that he was
on forbidden ground.
The last entry for each day,was pretty
much the same:
-. June 2lst, walIoped Jim for goin'
fshin'"
"By George" says Keeler, jr.-"Jim-
Jim-Why, that's the gunner. Now
Wen see how industrus he used ter be-"
.June 22d, walloped Jim for titin Tom
Johnson"
tJune 23d, walloped Jim for stealin'
from Deacon Slosser."
'June "a, walloped Jim for goin' after
BIRDS nests, and not Workin' in the corn
neld."
''June %, walloped Jim fur"
Here the reading was interrupted by
the old gentleman (who had slipped
noiselessly in, taking the reader by the
nape of the neck, while Keeler, jr., de-
clares to this day, that he had an up
ward stroke of neuralgia on that occa-
sion.
When the old gentleman lectures him
now, all he has to say is,. "Walloped
Jim fur" when the sentence is gener-
ally ended by u boot-jack.

ANOTHER's.

She had the most alluring eyes,
A little Grecian nose;
She wears the most bewitching guise,
And parti -colored hose!
Her touch can thrill one strangely when
One clasps her in the dance;
At least, they tell me so. but then,
never had the chance!
Her melting tones, SO people say,5
ntoXlcate the brain,
And leave, when she has gone away,
A joy akin to pain.
Her voice is like sweet music when
Its strains are soft and low;
So those who'vc heard 1t say-but then,
Inever did, You know.
She makes the most superb ragout-
Knits stockings by the score;
Knows Latin, and Italian too,
Greek, French, and plenty more!
She's just the girl to sweeten life
Adorable !-diyine!
In short, she is a perfect wife!
But then she isn't mine!

A PARIS dispatch says that an Anglo
American hippophagists' banquet is to
be held in that city in few days, or, in
other words, that lot of individuals
who have been better Brought up are 60
ing to Frenchify themselves by banquet
ing off horses which, having become too
old and worthless for other use, have
been killed for food. We tremble for the
safety Of the fiery untamed steeds of our
rag and orange men when these epicures
return from abroad.
