more, of Licking township, was stand
ing on the platform over well, pump.
ing water, the boards gave way, and
she fell into the well distance OF
twenty.three feet. Strange to say
she was not particle injured. She is
quite heavy woman, and in falling

considerable water i'm the well which
doubtless prevented her being seri

Mr.. Greeley had passion for showing
strangers around the Tribune establish
ment. One day couple of ladies called
upon him, and desired to be shown around.
Mr.. Greeley. at the time, was in the
counting room below the sanctum. The
sanctum messenger boy had taken occa-
sion while Mr.. Greeley was below to blow
through the speaking tubes to the COM
posing room above. The man in charge,
who felt rather grouty that day, did not
have his feelings improved any when, in
response to his answer to Greeley's sup
posed ''calr' he was fooled by the office
boy, who asked him how he felt on some
other trivial question. Two or three times
this was repeated within half an hour,
and he at last resolved to get square with
the office boy. Soon Mr.. Greeley entered
his sanctum with the ladies. After show
ing them about, he said you see these
pipes. l have only to blow through this
one, and the man in charge of the COM
posing room answers" Reckoning for
one Of the ladies to approach, he blew
through the pipe, and directed her to
place her ear to the mouth-piece and lis
ten to the answer, when to his surprise
and CONSERVATION there came laundering
down the pipes "You little rascal. II YOU
don't get away from that pipe | will kick
your head clean Off"

The case Of Merrill v Kimball being
a bastardy case attracted much atten-
ton as all such cases do. An attempt
was made last spring to get Kimball
indicted by the grand jury but without
success. This case was brought to
secure an order for the support of the
child. Much of the testimony in the
case was Of a character to be excluded
from the columns of any decent paper.
That the plaintiff was justly estimated
in the public mind to be much below
par for chastity, became evident dur
ing the case, while il also was made
to appear that if the defendant was
not father of the child it was owing
rather TO chance than virtue. The
jury disagreed standing nine for verdict
ofguilty and three for acquital. Thomp-
son and Gleed for plaintiff, and
wilkins and Brigham & Waterman
for defendant.
The last jury case was Stowell V
Boutwell,. This was an action of as
sumpsit for wages. Stowell was en-
ployed to work for Boutwell, on his
farm, but refused to pay him the full
amount ofhis wages on the ground
that he quit before his time was out,
and, secondly, that he was a damage
to him by neglecting his work &c.
He claims that not near as much sugar
was made as ought to have been, and
an attempt was also made to show
that the plaintiff and another party
stole some of the sugar made. The
jury returned verdict for the plaintiff
of about $3S and costs. Gleed anC
Brigham & Waterman for the plain,
tiff, and Niles and Rand for defend
ant.
