On Michigan avenue car yesterday a

in his, and they almost touched noses as
they looked into each others eyes md
mentally figured that life was made up
of sticks of sassafras candy, five-cent
trips, and cheap marriage ceremonies.
They finally got to biting off the same
stick of candy, and while some of the
passengers smiled and some wiped away
a tear, and old lady was heard remark
ing to herself:
"When l see such actions, it makes
me feel certain that never loved-never

She left the car and went to market
and in about an hour a newsboy rushed
past crying:
"All about the scandal %

A number of living horned-frogs, silk
worms, and other reptiles and entomo-
logical specimens We're destroyed by Gre
nation on Wednesday in the New York

sent through the mails as third-class mat

sent from Arizona and destined to Ger

A Live OctOpus.

There has arrived at the Aquarium
in New York City, from the West Indies
among other curious marine creatures, d
living octopus, or eight-armed devil-fish
This is the only one in this country al
present, and makes the seventh exhihi
ted at the Aquarium, but owing to the
delicate nature of these animals and the
long distance they are transported, they
always arrive in an exhausted condition
and consequently die. This one, proba
bly,, will not survive longer than its pred
ecessors, although owing to increased
facilities of keeping and the remarkably
fine specimen, hopes are entertained OF
successfully prolonging its existence
during the summer.

A THREAT TO FOMENT.
From the albany Argus.,I

This Republican threat to provoke dis.
order in the event of a lawful exercise OF
power by Congress is threat to foment
insurrection. No good can come from
it. Nogood is intended. 1t is as com.
petent to inquire into the manner OF the
election of a President as of Mayor OF
Alderman. Such inquiry will proceed
And if those who are now threatening
to organize lawlessness shall carry out
their threats, they will prove themselves
