RULES FOR PEDESTRIANS.


NOW 10 Walk the streets of Memphis
There are certain regulations 10 be
observed in walking the streets, which.
though apparently Of slight N in
themselves, are of essential Importance
IN preserving the general order of a
crowded town, and administering TO the
comfort OF its inhabitants. Every street
passenger. should take care to keen
strictly to his side of the walk, which IL
conveniently agreed in all Countries, we
believe, to be hat on the rlsht hand
Two passengers in meeting should thus
pass on the right of each other, but when
one overtakes another the former should
goto the lett oil the latter A disregard
of these rules is sure to lead
10 the embarrassing situatlan in
which Sterne confpsses to have been
placed, and may not alwa,s resui \
happily; THE Marquisina de f - was
coming in a sort Of hurry. She was
almost upon me" be says, before | saw

her pass. She had done the same. end

heads together. She instantly got to he
other side. | was just as unfortunate
as she had been; tor | had sprung to that
side and opposed her passage again. We

then back. and so on. 1t was ridiculous.
We both blushed in~tolerably; 80 l aid at

In q crowded thoroughfare there is
great inconvenience produced by even
the stoppage Of a single person IL is,
notwithstanding, a frequent occurrence
tor whole groups TO take their stand ia
the midst OF a current OF people aud OBJ
struct or perplex its flow. Nothing can
be more unseemly or ill-bred than for a
few idle persons, with no more important
object than to pass q word, perhaps. to
each ether on the state OF the weather, to
delay a large portion Of the entire popu-
lation, TO most Of whom a moment Of
time is Of Importance.
The monopoly OF the whole width Of
the sidewalk by a close phalanx OF slow
moving pedestrians is mol An i~nlreouent
street annoyance. An entire family.

.geny OF half a dozen or so all ciinging
to each other with the strongest ties OF

divide themselves and walk in successive
pairs, for our narrow streets seldom Allow,
without more or less busting, . greater
number than the four shreasf whicn two
couples will make on meeting.

There was considerable interest dis.

election and the selection Of delegates.
Knots Of men talked municipal politics
On the street corners and speculated as
to the coming msu." Every mar had
his fsvorite, and consequently had no
particular use for the opponent whom
he thought was strongly represented
among the delegates. Many citizens
worked themselves up into a state OF
temporary excitement. Some threat
ened 10 bolt and vote for League, while
others threatened to call out an indie
pendent candidate if Mr.. "So-aud SO"
received the nomination. As our re.
porter walked leisurely up the street in
the afternoon, his thoughts being bent
upon some philosophical subject, an ex.
cited individual stopped him suddenly,
and after taking him to a lamp.post, said:
Well, johnson will be nominated to-
morrow" Our man answered blandlT,
Well, that is possible, but he may BE-

excited individual. He will be nomi.

Our man ~propounded another conun

My dear friend" replied our smiling
reporter, 81 do not know who will be

MEMPHIS THEArER Last evening
Sberidan's elegant and witty comedy.
School for Scandal. was well presented
by Mrs. Bowers and the St. Louis Olym.
pic Theatsr Company, and was highly
enjoyed By the audience. The School
for Scandal is essentially a piece Of witty
dialogue or repartee. The language was
polished by Sheridan with the most anx.
ious care, aud every passage sparkles
with the cold, diamond-like splendor of
Congreve. 1t is an incessant blaze of
literary fireworks, just as are bis other
dramatic works, the Rivals, the Critic,
the Rehearsal, etc.. On these Sheridan
lAvished all the treasures Of his admir-.
able wit. The names Of "Sir Anthony
Absolute" bob Acres" Lydia Ian
guish," Mrs. Mslaprop," Joseph Sur
face" Mrs. Csndour" and Lady Sheer
we'll" have become household words.
10 the School for Scandal, as presented
last evening, Mrs. Bowers was excellent
as Lady Teazle. Indeed, to our mind,
she is more attractive in comedy than
tragedy-is more natural and displays
greater dramatic art. AS "Charles Sur
face" Mr.. McCollum was pleasing, while
the Joseph Surface" Of Mr.. Rand was
passable, as we're also Mr.. Collins as
Sir Oliver Surface" aud Mr.. Allen az
"Sir Benjamin Backbite." Mr.. Hight.
as "Sir Peter Teazle," and Miss Clifton,
as Mrs. CandOur," played their parts in
a spirited tanner. Last season the
School for Scandal was played at the
theater by Mrs. Lander and company in
a very able and excellent manner. the
cast then being stronger than when pre-.
scented last evening. To present this
sparkling comedy every impersonator of
q role should be a clever actor or actress,
and even the role Of the servant should
not be left to a weak player All this,
however, need not be expected outside of
New York or Boston, but When it is done
q rare dramatic treat will be epj we'd BY
audiences in the so-called provinces.
Tonight Mrs Bowers will appear in
Lady Audley's Secret.

quite a right to do, and he accordingly
found MIN guilty, and sentenced him to
the Work.house.
This proceeding on the part Of the
Mayor, however, met with a reverse on
the part of Appel, and he at once ap.
pea1ed the case for final decision to the
Court of Common Pleas. In last July
the matter came up in the Courts, and
the proceeding of the Mayor of Reading
was held to be beyond his jurisdiction.
|. The costs amounting altogether to $50
were accordingly assessed against the
Mayor by the Common Pleas Court,
and the execution of the Court to pay
said costs was placed i'll the hands of
Deputy Sheriff Brown to collect. The bill
for $50 against the Mayor was then sub
mitted to the Board of Common C0un-
Gil OF Reading, and it was ordained that
the same should be paid.
Mayor Helinkamp, however, refused Il
counterstgn the order for the $50, and
then the whole matter was supplemented
by Deputy Sheriff Brown, who leviet
upon the property Of the Council Cham
Der of Reading and advertised the same
| for sale. %
The bill will probably now be. paid
and thus prevent the necessity OF tn
honorable Councilmen of Beading hold
ing their next session Of Council in al
empty room, and sitting upon the fioo
instead OF the usual s0ft-cushione(
chairs.
