stealing q Stenmhonf.

One Of the commonest expressions
used by persons arrested and taken to
the calaboOse is, Il want to know if
this is a free country"
This is what a booty customer said
yesterday while his name was being
registered, and was answered in the
affirmative by the station house
keeper,
Then 1 want to know whazzer
rested for2"
Stealing a steamboat, sir?" an
swered the clerk.
A look of amazement slowly erept
over the face Of the accused as he
slowly drawled, ''Fode Lord never stole
steamboat Show me the man says
So"
He'll be present to. morrow morn
Ing" replied the clerk.
"DOes the warrant say wheEzer was
side or stern wheel?' inquired the cul-
prit.
Had three wheels" answered the
clerk.
Then l guess I'll give up. 1 could
stand the two wheel charge, but when
you put a wheel in the stern too, /
guess I'll give up" and the prisoner
slowly sunk to the floor, and had to be
carried out on a board. He was found
guilty Of being drunk to-day and fined
FIVE dollars.

Bernhardt Ostracined.

Now York Times, ~
Before Sara Bernhardt had come to
this country, in pursuance of her pro-
fessional engagement, there was con-
siderable speculation private and pub.
lie, as to her social acceptance here.
Some persons held hat she would be
invited to private houses, particularly
in New York, as she had been in Lon
don, to give entertainments and to re-
ceive social honors. Others, and they
we're largely in majority, were of a
contrary opinion. They did not
believe that any American city
would initiate the folly, to
put it mildly, Of the British
capital that it would receive in
their homes a celebrated actress with
antecsdants which would prevent all
thought Of such reception mad she
been merely in private life. They
we're entirely correct in their iudc-
ment. Bernhsrdt has come and gone.
She was eminently successful on the
stage the receipts Of the four weeks
Of sher performapees-six a week
having reached very nearly one hun
.dred thousand dollars. The receipts
Of the Francois in the same time eoula
never have been much mere thar half
the amount for sixty-three thousand
francs a week, or more than ten thou
sand five hundred francs a night,
would DO regarded as most extraor-
binary even at the theater which
counts itself the first of the world.
Socially, the success of Bernhard
was nil. Nobody invited her; nobody
called on her nobody, in a society
sense, recognized her existence.
This is, under the circumstances, as it
should have been, and reflects credit
upon the good sense and propriety of
the metropolis. The intellectual aud
refined were pleased to flock to the
playhouse to witness her 6n0 imper-
sonations. They were,not disposed to
stay away becapNe she had violated
the canons Of morality in her ind.
yi9ual relations. They went - 500
her as an artist, not as a wo,,nan If
the play-going public does not con-
Germ itself with an actSr's private life.
why should It win the private life
OF an actress,

Christmas preNnts, will do well to
call early at Zellner & Co.'S shoe
store, while the assortment in patterns
and styles is yet unbroken. Their
stock, in this particular line, is the
largest. most complete and attractive
We ever saw. They sell them at
astonishingly low prices and we advise
our readers to examine their assort-
ment before purchasing.
Several members Of the feminine
demi- monde, which translated is half
world, we're noticed at the tbeater
last night, up stairs of course 1t is
only at matinee performances that
this class are permitted to occupy
seats in the dress circle. This is re-
garded as rather odd feature of pre-.
vailing customs, but it is remarkable
fact that the outcast representatives
of our population always conduct
themselves with the utmost circum-
speotion at theatrical entertainments.

JOHN WALSH, UNDERTAKEN,
3lI second Street. 1881.

Mrs. Garfield in looks, says a Wash
lngton gossip, is a plain woman beside
Mrs. Hayes, and shows excellent judy
ment in not letting her pictures start
out in circulation until the latter
lady's are retired in the natural order
Of events. If she will have the firm.
neas to resist solicitations to that effect
even subsequently, she will do wisely.
| don't know how it may be all over
the country, but Washington book
stores, picture shops and news stands
are flooded With Mrs. Hayes in q dozen
or more attitudes, and many sa%tirical
comments are made by irrevereut
passers.by, as / myself have often
heard. We have no royal family in
this country, Why ape royalty in the
display Of feminine fsc-s .nat have
Dot, ike them, a hereditary rank, nut
so soon will be in the rank and file Of
private life again2
