Laughable But Painful Mishap.
A laughable incident occurred in a gro
Gerry store in Newport, r. l., day or two
since. An empty barrel, with few inches
cut off the top, had been left standing in
the store, and man who had been atand-
lug around until he was tired, sat down in
it. This would haye been very we'll if he
had not sat down too far. As it was he
went so far into the barrel as to double
him up after the manner of pair of COM
passes. The fellow realized his mistake
and strove to correct it, but the more he
did this the further he worked into the
barrel. Finally he was constrained to crv
out for help. and half dozen men, among
them the proprietor Of the store, came to
his rescue. They tried compression of the
upper and neither extremities, but this
brought too great strain amidships and
had to be abandoned. Then a council of
war was held. AT this it was decided that
either the man or the barrel must be sac
rifced, and although the barrel was worth
twenty cents, the latter alternative was de-
cidsd upon. A hatchet was procured and
the sides of the barrel dashed in. It will
scarcely be credited that the man left the
store without offering to pay for the bar
rel.

every one by nominating for the ofice OF Comp
troller William II. Burrell. Few In the room
knew anything OF Mr. Burrel, and, until the
moment OF his nomination, the impression was
that 3. s. Powell would be renomin ated, or. In
oise Of disanection, Edward Rowe. The dele
gates all seemed TO understand the arrangement,
and voted for Burrill Without hesitation, giving
unanimous vote.
