A. T. Stewards Superstition.

New York Sun.
1t is well known that Mr.. Stewart was
extremely superstitious. The slightest in.
cidcnt or accidents became to him impress
sive omcns. The fact that lie caused an
apple woman, who, for many years vend-
ed her edibles on the sidewalk in front of
his wholesale store to be removed, stand
and all, to his uptown store, under the
impression that her presence insured his
prosperity, is we'll authenticated. A lady,
whose acquaintance he made just previ-
Gus to the opening Of his new store, warn
ed him not to sell anything there until she
had first purchased something in the store,
and on the opening day, early in the
morning, she called and bought nearly
two hundred dollars worth Of goods, prin-
cipally Irish laces. Years afterward,
when Mr.. Stewart was in foreign city,
he learned that she was living there in re-
duced circumstances. Her husband had
squandcred her fortune. Mr.. Stewart
sought her out and gave her al elegant
suite of apartments and afterward settled
upon her a handsome annuity. He sup
ported her during her life in comparative
luxury, because he believed her carly pur-
chase in his new store had brought him
luck

Boston Globe, April 10.
S,mc three weeks since a man giving
the name Of Robert Baldwin obtained
lodgings at house No, 81 Sterling street,
and advertised in one Of the daily papers
that he had $1,000 to loan. This announce
mcnt brought large number Of borrow:
ers, old and young, male and female, to
his lodgings, where he disclosed his plan
as follows: An applicant was asked to
state his or her security, real estate sccuri-
ty being required. The generous lender
had of course no doubt Of the eligibility
Of the property offered to warrant the loan,
but he was stranger and must convince
himself that the titles of the offered prop
erty were correct and what they should be-.
To obtain this information it would be
necessary to employ lawyer to search
the records, etc, and the applicant must
leave small sum to pay the fec the limb
Of the law would require. To this plausi-
bic story the foolish money seekers gave
ready crcdencc, and in almost every case
left from s. to $50 to be appropriated in
this way. They were informed that when
the lawyer had reported their titles valid,
the money would be at once forthcoming.
On the first dav Of April, Mr.. Baldwin
stepped down and out," and on the fol-
lowing Monday by appointment, his vic
TINS began to call for their money, and
they have been calling ever since.

The Committee appointed by the Com
missioners to investigate our charges
against J. p. Williams have reported,
finding that Williams hos overdrawn
181.o0. It will be remembered that we
charged him with having taken $127.98
more than belonged to him FOR THE LAST
TWO MONTHS OF HIS TERM, and so he did,
but, it seems from the report Of the Com
mittee that, in some of the earlier years
Of his term, he drew $47.3S less than was
his due, which they deducted from the
@127.9S leaving balence due the county,
Of 181 90. Poor Williams! after all his
stealing, and his lying, and his appealing
to the tax payers to vote for him, that
AL might be well,'' he has come to be
seen in his true character, and to be pit
led accordingly, and so it turns out that
our attack upon him last fall was no "elec.
pioneering trick" but an effort to secure
the reform for which he clamored 80 lus
tily.

STRANGE THINGS HAPPEN.

The Pioneer.P Press Of yesterday announ-
ces that combination has been formed
by which the Minneapolis Tribune is to
be consolidated with the first mentioned
paper, the whole to be called THE Dual
CRY PIONEER Press AND TRIBUNE, and
that hereafter, until further notice there
will be issued from St. Paul and Mime
apolis, but a single morning paper. 1t is
alleged that business considerations alone
have dictated the consolidation. 1t is idle
to speculate concerning what the political
complexion Of the tribune will be. In the
advocacy ofprinciples we have no doubt
that it will be soundly Republican. In
discussing public questions we believe it
will exhibit usual fairness, and manafest
reasonable regard for the reputation of
all men. The new paper will have both
fsle talent and the means to make itself the
,peee cf any other daily journal in the
United States. Success to the enterprise.
