A Privileged Glass.


Those readers Of the CHRONICLE who
have been in the habit Of attending court
and hearing the charges of the Hon. JUS
tice Dalrymple to the Grand Jury, on the
subject of the violation of the Liquor
laws of this State, must no doubt remem-
Der the stress he laid upon the fact that
if the laws were not executed against
those who sold beer or liquor contrary to
the law, such offenders constituted IA
privileged class"
Now wish to call attention to the fact
that there is another aprivileged Glass;
within the meaning of His Honor's words;
namely, those who asell, barter or ex-
change, or offer or exhibit for sale, barter
or exchange any fire-cracker or squib IN
this State. tR.s. 1877, 424S1l.)
If any red hot temperance man who is
SO awfllly anxious Ito enforce the law
because it IS the law will only incur the
slight unpopularity Of trying it on he
will make five dollars, Is 10 of the act
aforesaid @The Chinese must go.p
SQUIBoB.
Appended is the Act
(Revised Statutes of 1917
That it shall not be lawful for any per-
son to sell, barter OF exchange, or to offer
or exhibit for sale, barter or xchange, any
fire cracker OF sqaib in this state. Nor
for any person to burn explode or throw
any burning fire cracker, squib, turpentine
balls, or fire serpents IL this state.
Fine for selling &C.. Ten Dollars. Fine
for burning &C.. One to Five Dollars.
See r. S. p. 424.
! Tour dealers in Fourth Of July inyigo-
rators need not be alarmed, as the law
referred to is practically obsolete, and
besides, no one save, perhaps, SquibO6
would have the temerity to endsnger
| the plood~cemented liberties of this
gsa.lorious Yankee Nation, by thus in>
lsisting upon the ruthless destruction Of
the one remaining fabric Of patriotism

ored bands Of powder filed paper, mans

A YOUNG man h,reabouts woke up a
few mornings ago and found that his hair
was perfectly white. 1t was so when he
went to bed.-1tmes
That's nothing. Why we have a
young man in our office who ate &C
many oyrters a few nights since that
he became deathly sick, and went
home and took desc Of horse lini-
,nent thinkingit was camphor. After
he went to bed he dreamed that he
was hungry mule, and, in his semi
somnambulistic state got up and swal-
lowed straw mattress to appease his
terrible craving.

ABOUT this time of the year the
young man with tender heart and
more tender head begins to draw up
a set of resolutions, to take effect on
and after New Years day. He calls
on his girl, Ann Sophronia, and takes
his plug of tobacco out of his pocket
and casts it into the stove with the
remark "I now stop using this filthy
weed" then his cigar goes in the
same manner, and he solemnly prom
ises that little girl Of his that he will
never, no never, 80 long as he lives
utter another profane word. She
begs of him to stop drinking, and he
promises her he will. Then he gently
draws her to him, and she rests her
auburn colored head on his shirt front
and he smothers her with some oscu-
latory exercise, when her old papa puts
in his appearance, opens the door
and smilingly invites the young man
to "vamoose, and helps him in his
exit with a pair of No. 9's. In an
other hour he can be found in the
Grand Central begging for chew,
and diving down deep into his vest
pockets to get a nickel whereby he
can procure a drink to assuage his
suferings. Verify, the way of the
young man with good resolutions is
hard.
