And here with the dark shadows of crazy
buildings over the river, and shady creeks where
boat builders have SGT up their tents, one seems
to haven taken leave of sea going Rousn, aud to
have come upon softer, more tranquil existence.
Over sll tnis towers grand buttress of rock,
still bsthei in sunshine, the Mount st Catherine,
barring the course Of the river with its steep

A Miser's End.

Marvin Banning, of Hadlyme, a miseI
and q hermit, died recently, aged "a,
and he is said to have starved himself
to death. Having early developed hab-
its of industry, shrewdness and rigid
economy, he accumulated an ample
fortune before reaching the age of 30.
He said he never had time to look for
a wife, and he lived alone. his diet for
the past ten years being rAw pork and
hard bread. Sometimes he denied
himself food and fire for long periods
in the coolest weather, and many sup
posed he was really very poor. When
he wa dying, however, he told his at
tendant that treasures were concealed
in and about his house, and since then
several bags of silver and gold, aggre-
eating $4,000, have been found in a
barrel Of bu%tternuts in the garnet, while
a box containing gold and silver and
several thousand dollars worth of
United States and other bonds was
unearthed in the cellar. Banning was
a shareholder in the Saybrook National
Bank and a large depositor in several
savings banks, but the amount of his
property is not known. As he left no
will, it all goes to his sister, a Mrs.
Wright, of Deep River, who is in very
needy circumstances (Ct.)

The Connolsssurs Puzzled,

Some forty years ago the ship Gov
ernor Eldio)tt arrived al Salem, Mass,
from India, and there landed several
missionaries, who departed at once for
Boston to report their arrival to the
missionary board, leaving their belong
ings at the Lafayette hotel. There they
attracted the attention Of a customhouse
clerk, who, noting the presence Of a cask,
suspected an evasion OF duty, and re-
ported the matter 10 Gen. Miller, the
collector OF customs. That official at
once ordered baggage and cask to be
sent to the cu~stomhouse for examina-
ton, and requested that the missiona-
ries would give him a call as 1901 they
returned to Salem. The suspicious cask
was taken into the customhouse yard,
the bung knocked out, a proof glass in
serted to find ont what kind OF liquor
was inside, in order to FIX the duty on
it. They all tastod-c) llector, deputy
collector, naval officer, inspector, clerk,
and a tribe Of hangers on. They drank
it neat; they drank it with water, with
sugar, with biscuits, with cheese, but
could not agree what kind OF liquor it
was. Bats we're made, and it was finally
agreed to leave the knotty question to
be decided by two absent inspectors
Capt. Bill L. and Capt. Steve R.
At last they came. They tasted. Capt.
L. said he would stake bis reputa-
ton that it was old London Dock bran
dy, vowing he had not tasted such
liquor since General Crowningshield
launched Oleopatra's barge in 1875
Capt. declined to put a name to
it, he said it had a flavor different from
any liquor with which he was &C.
quRinted.
The next day the missionaries arrived
at the customhouse to have their bag
gage passed, all "a the cssk OF liquor.
THAT must pay DUTY said the general.
Would they inform him what spirit the
cask contained p The missionaries COM
piled by telling him that when they left
India they brought with them a pet
orang-outang. which, dying after thirty
days experience Of sea life, had been put
in a oask OF run for preservation. An
explanation for the peculiar flavor that
had puzzled SO many experienced
tasters.
