When a young husband had gone from
home, and with fond solicitude tele-
graphed his little wife, "What have you
for breakfast, and how's the babyP" He
received the brief, suggestive reply:
"Buckwheat cakes and the measles"
We have the report of case in our
midst, not where measles was in the
bill of fare, but where sciatic rheuma-
tism confined Mr.. j. Dawson, the we'll
known druggist to his room for long
period. 1t was stated to our.reporter in
the following words: THE senior of
this firm was attacked with sciatic rheu-
matism December last, and for four
weeks could scarcely leave his room.
He used St. Jacobs Oil, and is now able
to be at his place of business, feeling no
worse for his recent affection" The in
ference is convincing.

A hired man" who has been employed
on farm in this county for several
months entered suit against his employer
the other day for balance OF wages,
amounting, as he claimed, to $32. The
suit was on trial in Justice alley, yester-
day, and it looked at first as if the plain
tiff had clear case. He gave dates and
figures in straightforward way, and
seemed very honest young man. When
the farmer took the stand he said:
II claim an offset for that $32. No
man need sue me for what honestly
owe"

lawyer"

six hands in my employ and we were
rushing things, when / hired this man.
He hadn't been with us two days when
they stopped the reaper in the middle of
the forenoon to dispute about Daniel in
the lions den, and in three days we had
regular knock-down over the whale
swallowing Jonah. The man who ran
the mower got to arguing about Samson,
and drove over stump and damaged
the machine to the tune of $l6, and the
very next day my boy broke his leg
while climbing fence to hear and see
the row which was started over the
children of Israel going through the Red
Sea. 1t wasn't a week before my wife
said she didn't believe Elijah was fed by
the ravens, and hang me if l didn't find
myself growing weak on Noah and his
flood. That's my Offset, sir; and if he
was worth anything, I'd sue him for a
thousand dollars besides. "-Detro1 Free

The European Powers.
THE HARBoR WHERE THE FLEET WILL
ASSEMBLE.

ASSEMBLE.
The harbor of old Duleigno is one
of the oldest on the Adriatic and the best
that exists on that harborless coast be-
tween the southern point of Dalmatia
and the mouth of the Drin. The haven
is sure safeguard from the south wind
the fierce sirocco, but is exposed on its
northern side. There are about dozen
huts now on the beach, making little
settlement, exclusively Albanian, and
called Limani. In the beginning of the
10th century the appearance of the har-
Dor was very different. The town fell
into Turkish hands very late in 1871,
and the Turkish governor of Scutari,
who was responsible for the district,
proved incompetent or unwilling to
check the piracy which gave Dulcigno
an evil name in the 10th and 18th centu-
ries. The light Dulcignote barques
descended on the Italian, Albanian, even
Greek coasts. The Porte undertook to
put them down, but the governor Of
Scutari, himself always chosen from q
particular North Albanian family, was
not inaccessible, and moreover, the
Porte had no particular objection to see
ing Austrian and Italian commerce dam
mayed. An unmanageable pasha at last
made his appearance in the person OF
Sulelman, and the Whole Dulvia.-- aaat
numbering no fewer than 500 vessels
was burned to the waters edge in its
own harbor. This blow ruined Old
Dulcigno, and the present town wa:
planted little further inland to take
its place. In 1922 the town was occupied
by the Venetians, but only for briet
period. In 1878 the Montenegrins tool
it by storm, most of the Turkish garrison
having previously got away by sea
Austria, however, at the Berlin Congress;
objected to its retention by Montenegro
and Gusinje and PLAYA were substituted
with what result all the world knows

Women in Parliament,

Kate Field in writing of the British
Parliament says
From ITS to 1884 women obtained a
glimpse of the House by looking through
hole over the largest chandelier-a hole
constructed to carry off the hot air and
smoke of the candles. Before the pre-
sent houses of Parliament were designed,
when legislation was carried on in O tenn
porary building women were allowed to
stand and peep through eyelet holes
bored in sort of boz erected behind
the strangers gallery. Far better is the
sheep-pen of to-day, but it is a pen.
Originally it was divided into three COM
partments of seven persons each. A
dozen years ago, however, the dividing
walls were removed. Since then other
improvements have been made, the last
of which is the elevation of the ceiling
and an attempt at ventilation but the
gallery still remains small, dark, and
wellnigh intolerable. Hung high in the
air, like bird cage, heavy iron graf
ing conceals its occupants from view
of the House, and, unless woman is
fortunate enough to obtain one of the
eighteen front seats, she sees nothing
and hears with difficulty. On my visit,
one hour before the House assembled, it
was locked, and a dozen women stood
before it ready to make raid on the
front seats. At last the imposing usher
appeared, unlocked the door, and the
scramble began, but we were stopped in
our mad career by the impertubable per-
son in black, who, after comparing our
names with those of his list, allowed us
to proceed. By firm but not riotous
display of muscle secured a front seat.
''This is beautiful, is it not ?" said an ell
derby lady to her companion. "What
have you brought with you" sherry,
sandwiches and some sal volatile. "
every sensible, my DEAR" added the ell
derby lady. Gust before leaving home
I had some sausages, because they are
staying" Women speak little in this
pen, the effect of the grating being de-
pressing. No men are allowed, M. P. s
excepted, who drop in occasionally to
see their friends. The only diversion is
tea, or a chop served in retiring room.

The attempt at providing shop-girls
with seats in New York is not likely to
amount to anything and the same thing
is true of like movement in London
Aside from the natural difficulties in the
way of such d reform, the inquiries
which have been made in New York
city appear to show that shop-girls, like
many other women, suffer not so much
from the hardships met in their work as
from their own inexcusable neglect of
the plainest needs of health.

A Lucky Find.

SINGULAR DECISION OF A POLICE JUDGE.
In May last while Michael Cambres,
butcher was on his way to market he
lost an envelope from his pocket contain
ing $4,000 in bills, and though he adver-
tised a reward of $500 several days for
the return of the lost package he received
no tidings whatever regarding it until
recently, when an advertisement APP
peared in morning paper, setting forth
that if the person who lost $4,000 last
May would call at an address given he
would hear of something to his advan-
tage. The matter was placed in the
hands of detective, who, upon investi-
cation, learned that the advertisement
was inserted by an Italian woman.
She told the officer that the package of
money was found by Rosa Quisa while
picking up half-decayed potatoes and
other vegetables in and about Fulton
market. Rosa, she said, took the money
to her father, Giogani Quisa, chiffo-
neur, living at lib Sullivan street, who
brought it toher to ask whether Or not it
were good. The money was also taken
to some broker down town, to see if it
were genuine. The woman also said
that Quisa Mt once put $1,000 of the
amount in the savings bank, and sent
some of it to Italy. A portion of the
money was also put in the bank by Rosa
Her reason for thus making the matter
known was quarrel she had with
Quisa, who refused to help her when in
need. The detective arrested Quisa and
his daughter. The magistrate, after
hearing the case, decided that there was
no just cause to hold Quisa and his
daughter, and accordingly discharged
them. He told Mr.. Cambres that he
would have to go to the civil courts for
redress. IN. Y. Mail.
