BACON AND BbAF. - Col. Curtis, in
the New York Tribune advocates
that farmers use bacon in the place Of
p"rk, instead of 5 ling their pork at
81 per hundred and using the money
to buy beef at 10 and ~ cls. per
pound he chooses to make his pork in
to bacon and make it the staple family
meat. Well grown pigs OF six months
are nice for bacon, aud it may be
cured in the same way as hams. 1t is
always ready for Use, and is treat

BEFORE THE MAYOR.
Cases Tried Last Evening.

The session Of the Mayors court last
evening, while not very long, was OF
quite an interesting natu re.
William Mallory who had been arrest
&c for throwing stones at another little boy
was first brought out and sincerely prom
ised to throw no more stones If he was
let go. ..
Sewel Starkey, who at the morning
session had been given a hearing upon
the charge of breaking into j house in
the night to steal and to commit felony,
was next brought into the dock. At the
hearing the Mayor had reserved bis de-
cision, and he stated that now he had
concluded to commit the prisoner to Jail
without bail to await the action of the
Grand Jury. (Starkey was taken over
later in the evenng.) .i -,I. 81
| Three little negroes, named VIM. Kel-
ley, Oscar Gibbs and Frank Gibbs, none
OF whom could look over the top of the
railing, then filed into the prisoners
place. They were charged by Mrs. Eliz-
abeth Stoeckley, who keeps a leather and
shoe binding store at No. IL Market
street, with stealing money out of her
store drawer, some time in The afternoon,
to the amount of $13.75.
Three small white boys then gave their
testimony. 1t appears that they heard
of the robbery and started out after the
young coOns. At Fifth and Market they
met Kelley and Gibbs and caught them
for Sergeant Dolan. Little Smith saw
them and took to his heels. They chas-
ed him to his home at Fifth and Walnut
streets, where he gave one of them $4. II,
declaring that he got no more money
than that, and that the other boys took
the money out of the drawer. Gibbs
and Kelley afterwards said that Smith
took the money. Three dollars and five
cents were taken out Of the pockets of
Gibts and Kelley, when they were taken
to the police station. ....
Owing to the absence of VIM. Kyle,
who was an important witness, the case
was postponed. Mrs. Stoeckley said she
recognized little Frank Smith as a boy
to whom she had freqehtly given bread
and butter.

on Thursday found two pearls imbedded
in the lower shell, near the mouth. The
pearls were removed from their sockets,
and found to be as large as peas, conlcai
shaped, very much the shape Of of re-
voiver bullet. They are Of perfect for
n alton, white, smooth and brilliant, and
supposed to be worth considerable
money. The finder will take them to
Philadelphia to ascertain their true
worth, and will In al probability, have
them mounted in gold. They are thou xht
to be the largest ever found in this city
