Steinberg's Goose,

A New York paper says: Gustave
Schmidt, who is noted for the interest
he takes in rife shooting, entered the
saloon of John Lutz, and drew from his
pocket fine revolver which he bad re-
Gently purchased, and which he exhib-
tied with pride to Lutz and to those Of
his friends who were in the saloon at the
time. Schmidt spoke boastingly of his
own powers as a marksman, and offered
to make a bet of ten dollars that he could
hit mark at the other end of the room.
"Do you see that goose" said Lutz,
contemptuously, pointing to a fowl that
could be seen through the open door
waddling obout the back yard. "You
give ME a dollar and I'll let you fire
three shots at her, and if you hit her
once you can have her."
Schmidt accepted the offer, and fred
from where he was standing, bringing
down the goose. A roar of laughter
greeted his achievement. He walked
proudly into the yard and took the
goose, supposing that the merriment
was at Lutz's expense. AS he entered
the saloon with the fowl in his hand, the
side door of the saloon was thrown vio-
lently open and an angry man ran into
the saloon. This was Henry Steinberg,
the owner of the goose. His first act was
to knock Schmidt down, and his second
was to explain his reasons for doing.
When Schmidt understood how he had
been taken in, he knocked Lutz down
and demanded the return of his money,
Steinberg in the meantime busying him.
self in asking both of them to pay for
the goose. The noise attracted the at
tention of Officer Wheeler, who entered
the saloon. After some discussion he
arrested Lutz on the complaint of
Schmidt, who charged him with obtain
ing one dollar by false pretenses;
Schmidt, On the complaint of Lutz, on a
charge of assault and battery, and Stein
berg on similar charge, also made by
Schmidt.
When the prisoners were taken to the
station-house, and the sergeant heard
with wondering eyes the various COM
plants, he turned to Wheeler and asked
if that were all. "Why, nc" was the
answer; Lutz was selling liquor with
out license. Schmidt hasn't permit to
carry that pistol, and that the other man,
Steinberg, hasn't got any permit from
the Board of Health to keep his goose.
When the prisoners we're taken before
Justice Flammer, in the Essex Market
Police Court, recently, long investiga-
ton was held, and the court room was
crowded by the friends of the three
prisoners. Lutz said it was all a joke,
and gave back the dollar, Withdrawing
his charge against Schmidt. The latter,
touched by this spirit of Cancellation,
withdrew his charges against Lutz and
Steinberg, and the owner of the goose
forgave the nlarksman, when the latter
and the saloon keeper each promised to
pay half the value of the goose. Their
Misunderstanding being over, they ex-
pected to be allowed to go. But Just
then Officer Wheeler and his charges
loomed up like grim fate. Justice
Flammer required Lutz to give 300
bail on charge of violating the excise
law, held Steinberg in the same amount
for keeping geese without a permit and
fined Schmidt So for carrying a pistol
without permit.

The Old Bridge of Diarmid.

Diarmid is narroweillage walled in
by two lines of wooded hills. East
street and West street run for mile par
allel. Between them is the river and
the suspension bridge. There was an
old tumble-down wooden bridge there
once, which was held in high veneration
by the oldest inhabitant. He could just
remember its dedication.
At the west end of the bridge, up
overhead among the beams and rafters,
was Thoff Skeletons retreat; his den,
the boys called it. Here he had laid
down fes poards,. making a rough sort
of floor, up pile of straw for a
bed, and ne. came when things were
more than q hmonly. uncomfortable at
home.
Diarmid was a tidy village OF white
houses, and green blinds, and trim
yards; but down at the foot of West
street, under a sand-bank, there was a
wretched building going to ruin in the
midst of litter of rubbish. 1t looked
as though all the dust of the clean street
had beeu swept ont there and left for
the winds to blow away. But the winds
had failed thus far to do it, and so the
Skeletons lived there.
Jim SkelSon, father of Thoff, had pc
culiarity which interfered with his rela-
tions as a parent; to wit, the habit of
drinking great deal too much of every
thing but cold water. The consequence
was that Thoff's life had begun to be a
burden 60 him as soon as he could re-
member, and, in fact, some time before.
"TheTe |" ne said to himself one night.
He was quite out Of breath, for he had
run half mile, clambered like a monkey
up the beams, and was now safe ON the
straw of his den in the bridge. "The
old chap won't get hold of me in hurry
now, guess" &
"The old chap" grieve to say, wa

And Thof never has been sorry. That
was twenty years ago, and he is manager
of the squire'S place now. Iheard some
