A DRUNKARDs DRoP-Yesterday noon
a man overcome with spiritual emotion wal
sailing towards the northern part of the city
and at every step he would box the entir.
compass. Now and again he would sit or liz
down to rest. This he did several time.
when, on one occasion he got up to resume
his voyage, a lady was passing by him carry
ing small basket of eggs, the drunken man
stumbled against her, knocking the basket out
of her hand, spilling the eggs on the side
walk and very nearly knocking the lady down.

a lark again yesterday. He blew off hats to
the discontinue of pedestrians, making them
swear initially, as is now the custom; he filled
peoples mouths, noses and ears with dust
and cobble stones, and made himself gener-
ally as disagreeable as a cross antediluvian
chap like he, can. Fortunately his biding
season.
