Grimwood, who went up in Il balloon,

TIE officers in many departments

highly proper to swindle the people.
At least, one would think so, when it
is known that in single case, $685.
900 were paid for clothing in the Ma
rine Corps which was never furnished.

Paris, it being the arrest of a wealthy
American lady of respectable stand
ing at the Bon Marche for stealing.
The case appears to have been one
of bona .ttde robbery, and not, rs on
a former occasion and in another
establishment, an unfounded and
slanderous charge, for the erring
dame Oh being searched was found
to have filled her poe kets with arti-
cles for which she was unable to ac-
count. AS the smallest tritle pur
chased at the Bon Marche has to be

it, and secondly, by the cashier who
receives the payment, makes out
the change, and enters "A full, de.
tailed record of the transaction in

woman was in prison for over a

A WELL ROUNDED LIFE. WheI
death comes early, when it crushes
the budding loveliness of childh )oC
or treads upon the bloom of youth
or even when it tlamplcs on the
strength of manhood, the natural
grief that we feel is aggravated be-
cause the event is as untimely as it
is severe; and we murmur, for it
contradicts the order of nature.
But when the pale messenger lays
his hand upon an accomplished life,
a life that has rounded out the years
which experience and inspiration
assign as the desirable limit of hui
man duration; when these years
have been filled with usefulness, re-
warded 10y success and crowned
with honors; when good man,
having discharged the duties and
fulfilled the trusts Of life, lies down
calmly and peacefully to his final
reposc. we may grieve, but we are
not permitted to complain. The
tears of affection may not, indeed,
be kept back, but the voice of rea-
son is silenced. TO complain at the
close of such a life is to complain of
the law of our existence, and to ac-
cuse the Greater that he did not
make man immortal upon the earth.
For such life eloquence shall lift
her voice and poetry shall string
her Tyre. For such a man, praise,
honor and imitation, but not tears.
Tears for him who has failed, tears
for him who has tainted on the way
side, not for him who, through his
fault or his misfortune, omitted to
employ the opportunities that were
given to lin, not for him who died
when he had accomplished that for
which he lived. So, we will lament
in no complaining spirit for the man
whose memory we honor to-day.
With our grief that he has died
shall he mingled our thankfulness
that lie has lived. The State that
he served so faithfully in the time
of her greatest emergency, proudly
lifts his name inscribed on the roll
of her hOnOred and remembered
sous, and the history of that State
cannot be fairly written without
honorable mention of his services.
The Senate which he informed with
wise counsels, which he adorned
with dignity of manners and with
purity of life, bears equal testimo-
ny TO his abilities and his virtues
and equal honor to his memory
From Senator Anthony's EatOgy up

a SAD JOKE. a practical joker
has been brought to his senses in
Carlisle, Ontario. A very intelli-
gent and estimable young lady of
that place was sitting with an init
mate friend in her fathers parlor
the other evening, and while ell
gagged in conversation leaned over
and rested partly on her compan-
ions lap. The joker eutered from
behind, and suddenly pulled her
chair out from under her In at
tempting to save herself, the young
lady injured her spinal column so
severely that she went into cOnvul-
sions; and the family physician has
given his opinion that, even if her
life is spared, her mind will be de-
ranged from the shock.

Charles Turner's Secret.

Great was the hustle of prepara

1t was in honor of the marriage of
his daughter Caroline-the merriest
and sweetest-tempcred of young
girls-with Charles Turner, a bank
er's clerk, and a high-principled, In
telligent man, likely to render the
home of sensible and virtuous
woman truly happy. The evening
passed over without the occurrence
of anything to diminish the light
heartedness of the young people;
the older ones, however. looked
grave, and sighed occasionally,
when they thought how changed
DINGHY Farm would seem when
Caroline no longer dwelt under it's
roof.
The marriage ceremony was per-
formed the following morning, and
Charles and his bride drove to their
new home-a moderate sized house,
with pleasant garden attached, in
the suburbs of Bristol. Gaily, yet
tenderly, did Caroline smile, and
thank her husband for the affection

memebrance of her little tastes.

indeed, did that first evening in
their new home pass away, and so
did many successive days, in the
enjoyment of mutual affection and
the many cOnveniences and little
luxuries which Charles salary ena.
bled him to afford.
For a few weeks no speck ap-
peared above the horizon, and Car
oline thought at times that her
dreams of the perfect
of married life were des.
tined to be realized. But it was
not long before she began to per-
ceive a change gradually creeping
over her husband. He seemed out
