A Deficiency.

Judge Sunhower Truax, Chairman of the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Lime Kiln Club, announced at the last meeting that he had delicate mis- sion to perform. He had been requested by the new janitor to state that there was deficiency in the cash accounts of the old janitor. The Treasurer's book showed that the janitor should turn over to his successor the sum of thirteen cents, whereas he had only turned over eight. Brother Gardner requested the ex-official to step forward and explain, and he stood up and said:
 'I tole de new janerter all about it an he had no bizness to raise dis fuss. Dat five cents was lost down crack in de ho' out in de ante-room, an do Treas urer should report it as cash on hand. '"
 "Kan dat five cents be sawn down dar under de ho' ?" inquired the President, and being informed that it could he ap- pointed a committee of two to "sawn it" and report. The result was the acquittal of the old janisor of the serious charge of embezzlement. The commit tee reported that they could see the nickel under the floor, and that it could be recovered any time carpenter was called in.-Detroit Free Press.

Not on the Bills.

There was an animated scene not on the bills at the Opera House in Denver, Colorado, few weeks ago, which tue Herald of Omaha, in Nebraska, thus describes: The play was one of Buffalo Bills. There are several "pictures, as the profession terms them -tableaux, the spectator calls them-during tue play. One of these is the Mountain Meadow massacre, which is illuminated and intensified by all tho glory and glare of the blue and red fre Some one sur reptitiously mingled a quantity of red pepper with the material for producing tinted flame, and tre result was some- what surprising, and created consterna- tion among the temporary corpses. The admixture, instead of burning with serene halo, went on tear, sputtered, flashed, splashed, sparkled, hissed, cracked and hew in fiery, blistering showers over the hands and faces of the boys who held the pans, and over those of the dead whose vitality was restored in miraculously natural manner. One of the murdered women, who lay prone upon her back with her head horribly gashed and yawning, bleeding slit cut across her beautiful throat-dead as & door-nail-was splashed, aud revived with startling suddenness. She howled, groaned and Topped over, exclaiming |: "Oh! Ow! My God My eyes are burned outl I'll die!" Other corpses writhed, rolled, Topped, howled and groaned. An immoderate amount of profanity bubbled from resurrected lips, and resurreoted lungs poured out vast volumes of hard, hoarse coughs as the curtain cut the sight from the auditori- um. Several of the stage people suf- fered many small blisters, but none were seriously burned.

which he purchased at Mar seilles when he was but poor lieutenant of artillery. Napoleon HI. wore this watch from the day he was named Prince President un- til the day of his death at Chiselhurst, and it is picturesquely related that in 1870, just as he was about to put him. self at the head of his troops the watch suddenly stopped. He was superstitious, and this incident served to depress him for days. After his death his widow gave the watch to her son.
 The American wife of the late Charles Fechter publishes defence of his character, in which she says: "His death, thank God, was 8 peaceful one. He died in the full belief of Christ, and prayed to his God for forgiveness, and God heard his prayer, for more beau tiful face of happiness and rest never was seen in death. His suffsrings were beyond belief for the last two months. /" She represents him, contrary to the testimony of managers and actors who were brought in contact with him, as being more incapacitated by disease than by drink. On that point she says " You know when he was unable to play they would invariably say, Oh, well, he is drunk again ? May Heaven in His mercy forgive them as freely as my poor suffering darling forgave them for none but God and myself knew the dreadful agony he endured while acting. He said, only few days ago, would not wish my greatest enemy to suffer one- tenth part that am enduring now"

The Oyster Beds.

Innumerable beds of native oysters have been exhausted, along the New England coast, and thousands of acres of oyster land are under cultivation. Two acres of good oyster land are said to be as profitable piece of property as the average New England farm. But the intelligent toes of the New England clam-digger still find no dlficu lty in fastening upon their prey in it's native sand. The bakes of Rocky Point and the annual meetings of the greedy fat men in Norwalk do not seem to dimin- ish the supply. Wonder is sometimes expressed that the shell-fsh of the New England coast are so plentiful, after satisfying for so many years the appe- tltes of 8 large population, and this wonder would be increased, were it gen. erally known that the untutored savage who preceded us did not shrink from his share of the labor which has prevent ed the oysters and clans from filling up our harbors. Some years ago large quarry was opened on the rocky shore ot the town of Branford, Conn. and from 1t the unpublished rose granite or syenite so freely used in city impro ve. ments was taken. Hundreds of years had covered these rocks with soil and turf. A short distance from the wate, were pleasant groves; at the waters edge were low and level headlands, and just in front were little islands, cool and shaded. Here the savage enjoyed his clam-bakes. Here he came in Septem Der, having overhauled his almanac SC as to be sure that there was an "r" il the month, and ate the juicy oyster When the soil was cleared from these low headlands, broken oyster shells ant clam shells were found lying four fee deep under the turf. Their condition was such that their presence was not ex plained by the geologist's theory of up heaval. What grand bakes and roast, must these copper-colored heather have enjoyed on that breezy shore !? Far intt the cool autumn night one can see then lingering around the campfire, pluck ing the unluoky bivalve from the ashes and wrestling it's succulent body iron its hinging shell. The white mans fire water was then an unknown luxury, ant when sleep came, it was the sleep of tn, glutton.

A WOman's Firm Resolve.
GOING TO JAIL RATHER THAN REVEAL
 WHERE HER MONEY IS HIDDEN,

D. D. Waite founded the Republican Advocate of Batavia, N. Y., and was for years one of the most influential jour- nalists in that part of the State. He died some years ago, leaving widow and one son. His life was insured for $1, 500, and he left some real estate in Batavia. The son was in delicate health. Three years ago, European trip was advised as tho only thing that would benefit him. His mother mort gagged lot for $400, and gave her per sonal bond as further security. The mortgagee was Richard O. Holden, a wealthy citizen of the place. The son died in Europe. Presently the mort gage fell due. Mrs. Waite, who was then in failing health and seventythree years old, told Holden that she could not pay the money, and that he would have to foreclose the mortgage if he in- sisted on collecting the claim. He fore closed, and found that Mrs. Waite, un- known to her, did not hold valid title to the property. Holden then sued her personal bond, believing that there was money left of the life insurance policy. There is only a small portion of the amount left, and this Mrs. Waite has deposited in safe place, intending to use it in erecting 8 monument on the family burying ground, as she cannot live much longer. She refused to tell where the money was. She was cited to appear before Judge Bangs. There she persisted in her refusal. Judge Bangs ordered her lodged in jail until she was willing to answer the questions put to her by Holden's lawyer. She was placed in @ cell in the county jail. This jail is one of the worst prison holes in the State. IThe cells are small and dark, and overrun with rats. A sickening smell constantly pervades them. Mrs. Waite was i'll when placed in the cell, having been under the care of her fami- ly physician for some time. Dr. Rand made affidavit before Judge Bangs that Mrs. Waite was unable to sit up, and lay in her cell on mattress furnished by friends; that she was rapidly grow ing worse, and that the jailer refused to permit him to visit her professionally unless he was accompanied by an off cer. Judge Bangs issued an order on the Sheriff, directing him to let the phy- sician in at all times to see Mrs. Waite. The Sheriff refused to obey the order, saying that the jail physician would at- tend to the prisoner. Mrs. Waite was accordingly left to pass the night alone in the dark, without medical attendance. Although weak and very ill, Mrs. Waite emphatic lily refuses to reveal the where abouts of her money. She says she will die in jail first, as she has laid the money by for monument to her husband, and if it is not used for that it cannot be used for anything.

Do You Know It2

The fact that leading physicians in this city, Brooklyn, Boston, Philadel- phia, Baltimore, New Orleans, Chicago, San Francisco, and elsewhere, indorse WINCHESTER HYPoPHosPHITE OF LIME AND SODA and recommend and prescribe it, with the most pronounced success, is the very best evidence of the chemical purity, sterling worth and undoubted merit of this deservedly popular and most efficient remedy.
 In the treatment of that formidable disease, Consumption, as we'll as Coughs, Bronchial Affections, Debility, and all wasting diseases, Mental and Nervous Exhaustion, WINcHEsTER's HYPoPHos- PHrrE OF LIME AND SODA has performed most wonderful cures and accomplished results which no other remedy, prepara- tion or method of treatment has ever equaled or even approached.

Only a Tramp.

He was poor, broken-down tramp, a drunken, worthless fellow, and when they found him lying dead on the door of the distillery there was not much thought about it. By-and-by the police came and bore the dead body to the station-house. It was only the body of poor tramp, but as it lay in the rude room at the station there was something in the expression of the face that seemed to indicate that the man had not always been what he was. Later in the day 0 lady and gentleman past the prime of life, the former richly dressed and the latter having evidence of wealth, entered the station-house and viewed the re- mains. The woman glanced at the face of the dead and exclaimed, cit is he, my son l" and her frame was shaken with grief. In moment she recovered her self, and with an icy expression said, "Let the law take it's course. Let him be buried in the Potter's Field" and then passed out. The son must have committed grievous fault that the mother could have spoken thus, but il would seem that the shadow of the grave should have forgiven the past. The curious part of tho whole affair, however, is that the richly-dressed lady should have known that the body of the dead tramp was at the station house, and tha she should have come there to identify
 her son. There is Q painful suspicion of tsfly about the story. Weare getting rather too much romance mixed up witt events and things. People do like to take their facts straight.

A Queer Georgia Wind SpOut.

William Langley, cotton planter of Gwinnett county, was standing in field on his farm. Around him were several men, woman and three children. all breaking the soil for cotton. The skv was clear and the air quiet, there being about both considerable sultriness. The children had just stopped work, and thrown themselves, tired as tired could be, on the top of pile of guano sacks. when peculiar roaring was heard in the field. The sound bore some resem. blance to that of an approaching train. but as no railroads were near, the work CTS looked at one another in amazement In few moments they saw a small col. umn, not larger in circumference than a barrel, skim rapidly along the ground. The wind column or spout appeared to be filled with dust. The mother rushed toward the children, who crouched low In fright, but before she could reach them the pile of guano bags, children and all were scattered right and left. In It's course, always eccentric, the column struck stump fairly from butt to roots and tore it from the ground, the wood splitting into three pieces, and dropping twenty or thirty yards away. MT. Langley was sucked in as the whirling thing bolted by and thrown into a ploughed gully some distance away. In the next instant the strange visitor had gone, passing up over the tops of the trees. It was seen plainly by the ladies at the Langley House, appe airing to them like the smoke that rushes up in circular volumes from the smoke-stack of Ioco- mokiva Al, A,x1,Satx Ton Neena
