HOPE AGAIN DEFERRED
six Thousand More Days to serve in
Auburn Prison.

-Four years ago last week French
man, formerly professor Of languages
was sentenced from New York City to
Auburn prison for selling obscene lit
erature and fancy pictures. His
sentence was ''four yeass imprisonment
In state prison ut hard labor and a fine
of $4,000. In the event of the fine not
being paid at the expiration of the term
OF imprisonment, the prisoner to serve
q day for every dollar until the fine is
paid His term of four years was up
last week, and the professor was said to
be feeling quite elated at the prospect
OF his being speadily released. Gov
Cornell has been asked to interfere in
his behalf and a favorable answer was
expected. The governor, however, sent
to New York for circumstances of the
case and the evidence ut the trial, and
sent back word that he could see no
reason why the letter ofthe law should
not be carried out, and consequently
the professor is now serving his 600
days, or another term of about seven
teen years.
When the poor chap had heard the
reply of the governor he took on terri
bly, and seemed to loose hope entirely.
lie had fondly hoped that some of his
friends would come forward and pay
his fine but they failed to do so and, as a
last resort, had appealed to the gov
ernor, but in vain.
The professor is prepossessing look
ing man, of perhaps 10 years and is
said to use elegant language, and to be
perfectly familiar with six or eight
different languages. Verify, "hope
deferred maketh the heart sick"

The Power Of Humbug.

Al individual who opened a small
taven near the field of Waterloo, was
freqently questioned as to whether he
did ot possess some relics Of the bat
tie, ad he invariably and honestly an
swem in the negative But he was very
poorand one day while lam enting to Il
neigbor, not only his poverty, but the
annoance to which travellers subjected
himhis friend cut him short with,
!" VII, make one help the other. Make
som,relics."
ht what can I do?' inquired the
poornan.
Ell them that Napoleon or Yelling
ton etered your shop during the bat
tie, md sat down in that chair"
Nc long after an English tourist en-
terett the tavern, and, inquiring for rel
les, ras told the chair story. The chair
was ought at an incredible price. The
nextcomer was informed that Yelling
ton lad taken drink, and the yelling
ton hmbler was accordingly sold. The
third arrival gazed with breathless
woner at the nail on which Bonaparte
had lung his hat; the fourth purchased
the COR posts between which he had
entend, and the fifth become the hap
py Purchaser of the floor on which he
had rodden At the last advices, the
fortunate tavern keeper had not roo
to cGer his head, and was sitting on q

formed by selling the earth on which
the lOuse had stood.

A FOOlhardy Act.

The latest foolhardy act at Niagara
is the work Of three employees of the
Erie railway. There is a log in the
rapids in the middle of the river, forty
rods above Goat Island bridge, which
has been there four years or SO, and in
that time no one has been within reach
ing distance of it. These men crept
out to it on the ice and spiked up a
twelve foot sign on it, reading, "Go
East via Erie Railway" Crowds Of
people stood on shore and looked at
them, and the usual number of cold
blooded bets were made, that they
wouldn't get back alive. In putting on
the sign they moved the log; this shook
the ice little, and it began to break
up in all directions. They had a lively
time padding back to shore again, and
say they wouldn't try it again for one
thousand dollars apiece.

ner of Wabash avenue ard Twenty

time during Sunday night the knights
of the jimmy entered his residence
through rear window, and then
made raid through the house. In
the course Of their perambulations
they came acreSs Mr.. Smiths bedroom.
In order to keep him quiet, and to
save him the trouble of waking up, the
burglars applied n handkerchief heavily
charged with chloroform 20 Mr..
Smiths head, and the dose took i'm
mediate effect. 1t is supposed that
other people i'll the house were also
treated to taste of the drug, for they
all slept an unusually long time. When
Mr.. Smith awoke he discovered his
loss to be s., 900 in cash and diamond
ring valued ut $500 As soon as he
could recover his senses properly he
repaired to the Cottage Grove Avenue
Police Station, where he made report
of the robbery. A detail of men was
at once set to work on the case, and
another detail was sent out from the
Central Station. The above particulars
form the substance of Mr.. Smiths
story. Emery p. Smith, the victim, is
a commission man and grain-dealer
The police are ut loss To know WHY

les of value that were lying around.
