doubtless flown so far that their capture

ADJUSTMENTS.
THE GEORGIA MINsTRELS,


People must be very fond OF amuse'
ments to sit for three hours in room
where the mercury would have marked
"a degrees, and where people were per-
spring in their shirt sleeves, and where
the very walls were damp with perspir-
alton, as was the case at Washington
Hall last night. But notwithstanding
the close and su!try air, quite good sized
audience was present at the first amuse'
ment OF the seas on-the Georgia MINIS
trels. A fair proportionE OF the assem-
blage was made up Of colored people,
with sprinkling OF the weaker sex.
One OF these latter went through a little
circus OF her own, before the curtain
went up. She half rose from her chair
and "rahcd for Garfield" and when
reproyed asserted her right to 'rah for
him whenever she had a mind to. When
the baiHn was elevated she again rahed
for De Golyer and repeated it OCCASION
ally during the performance. She was
finally induced to take her political SEN
timents to some more suitable place.
The performance throughout was
quite good and was enjoyed by the
audience The dancing. both single
and double, was very fairly executed,
and the high kickers were immense.
The singing was well done and the jokes
were fresh for the current season. Many
of the sketches were seen for the first
time here, and were worth looking at.
On the whole the performance was
quite clever one, and had the weather
been endurable, would have been
heartily enjoyed.

he was informed singular case was

ters. a case which involved family
troubles and quarrels, i hasty sepaIa-

facts as the commissioner discovered
were as follows:

no unusual amount OF sweetness in the
composition OF either Lemon or his vile,
more or less acidity was sure to prevail.

the other. But be the trouble what 1t

Then came a dispute over the
guardianship OF the children. But the
male Lemon quickly settled the ques-
ton 10y taking the green Lemons and a
trunk and striking out Tor parts I'M
known.
Mrs. Lemon applied to Charlie AS

phoned to police headquarters to stop

WHERE TIE Loss WAS.

A young man belonging to party visiting
Detroit last week, called at the City Hall to
make complaint to the Chief of Police that
he had been robbed of Lis watch.
"What sort of watch was it ?" inquired
the Chief
DWELL, it was kinder old fashioned, but II
kept the straightest time you ever saw.
Every clock within four miles of our house
was run by that watch"
"What WAS it worth ?"
DWELL, been offered seven dollars for

at isn't the money value that hurts me,
though don't care to lose seven dollars any
more than any other man. You see, it was
the only ume-piece We had TO run our
payer-meeling by, and when the deacon
rose up and asked mo what time it was, the
mint ! began to haul out that ticker every
other young man dropped his head, and
every gal pricked up her ears and aehed for
me TO beau her home. 1t made me solid all
along the town-line and put me ahead at
country dances, and I've either got to git
it back or go home and tell the folks that
came across a blamed fool, and sold it for
twenty dollars"

TIE IuA'T AND ITs OWNER.

A good illustration of the detective quail
ity, says an English paper, was shown in
the trial of a housebreaker few years ago.
The burglary was efiected-as most bur
glaries are-by the aid Of a reighboring un-
inhabited house. The thieves crossed along
the roof, and made their descent through
skylight. They robbed the premises at
their leisure,and decamped successfully with
the stolen property. There was one clew
leit-only one. A hat was found on the
roof. The hat was sent to Scotland Yard;
and the force were invited to inspect it.
One policeman Immediately said that he
knew who was the owner. In the event it
was found he was as good as his word.
The owner was discovered, and, being un-
able to give satisfactory account of how
he spent the evening of the burglary, and
moreover, being, awkwardly for him, in the
possession of the stolen property, the Jury
came to the conclusion that he was guilty,
aud found their verdict accordingly. 4
more interesting question remained. How
ala tue pOllcelnan KNOW tne exact nSau on
which to ct that very unlucky hat7 The
constable told the story himself. He had
been on duty in the gallery of the Old Bailey
during the trial of well known burglar.
He sat on back bench, and wore plain
clothes, and he noticed in front of him a
young man with highly criminal type of
face, who seemed to take the greatest inter
est in the trial. The constable accordingly
took the greatest interest in him and in all
his belongings, and, as the unconscious
spectator held his hat in his hand, looked
into it, and, as Inspector Bucket would say,
"totted it up" The result of this little
sum in addition was the registering in his
memory Of Q peculiarly-shaped grease-mark
on the lining which crossed the makers
name. The constable never forgot that
hat, and the professional career Of its owner
soon rendered him moro and moro interest
ing. Thus he was able at a moment to re-
store to the burglar the property he had
been so unfortunate as to leave behind him
on the roof.

---------------
THE ART OF NOT HEAitING.

When the telephone was first introduced,
the newspaper "lunny man" did not fail to
remark that Mr.. Edison was on the wrong
tack; what people needed was not ma
chine enabling them to hear things far off,
bet something that would help them nat TO
hear things close by. The saying had more
sense in it than its source would lead one TO
expect. Who has not sighed, when pea
tered during a busy hour 10y some bore, for
a machine that wotll make him obivious
to the rattle of his tormentors tongue?
But though no machine has yet been in
vented for this purpose, the art Of not hear
ing may be cultivated to an almost unlim.
tied extent. So many things are said which
are coarse, abusive, e,profane--so many others
rasp the temper-that the better way is to
cultivate one deaf ear, and turn that to all
such things. The power OF the will in this
respect is astonishing. Another good effect
of having a judiciously deaf ear Is that when
people find you do not hear what they say,
they soon become tired of talking. Many
quarrel would be saYed if the one. TO whom
hasty, cross word is spoken did not hear
it. Some things arc better ignored than
noticed The art of not seeing is as valu-
able as that Of not hearing and both should
be taught and practiced in every well-regu-
lated family. 1t is great thing in teacher
or parent, or in anybody who has to do with
children, to know when not to see and hear
things. Breaches of discipline are some
times venial and a wise man sometimes will
not observe that there has been any breach.
Some people possess these arts to perfec-
ton. A well bred man or woman meyer
hears a vulgar or i'll natured temark, even
when made to him personally, unless it is so
made that he cannot avoid notcngit. What
happy gift it would be IL every pastor
could be endowed with this faculty. Peo-
pie then would not talk scandal TO him,
knowing that he never heard anything Of
the sort. They would spare him those i'll
natured criticisms that now occasionally vex
his soul, aud that Aattery which is more
pleasant, but also more dangerous. Our
advice is, cultivate the art of not hearing
things. 1t more valuable thing than the
cultivated ear" on which SO many pride
themselves.--N T. Examiner.
