clerk in Cleveland hotel; 81 know of
one OF the toughest cases which happen

OF the story from the proprietor of a
prominent restaurant, to whom the fell
low told history of the affair before he
skipped out IF town. He said that one
evening this fellow came in and sat
down to table, giving his orders with
the air OF millionaire. He was nicely
dressed, and wore a long handsome ui-
ster. After he finished his supper he
started out, seeming to forget that he
hadn't paid. The proprietor stopped
him with reminder of the fact, when
1T was found that the fellow was a. beat
and had not cent Of money. The
restauraunteur was angry and about to
administer dose of leather, when the
fellow begged off, aud said he would
leave his pantalOOns with the proprietor
as security till morning.
The gentleman, In order to test him.
consented, and the fellow went behind
a screen and Invested himself of the
aforementioned, leaving only the light
covering OF his under clothing. With
his ulster buttOned close around him, he
stlll had the appearance of finely
dressed gentleman, with his pantaloOns
stuffed in his top-bOOts. He left the
breeches and went out. Entering GER
tain prominent hotel he walked to
register, entered his name, demanded to
be shown to his room, and instructed
the clerk to have him called at 8 O'clock
in the morning, all of which was com
piled with; but when the boy called him
at 8 o'clock the air about the room was

house ne kept there, full of petty thieves.
Just look here" said he, my panta-
looms, containing my watch and pocket
book, are gone, and some one connected
with the house took them, for they must
have crawled in over the transom. /
tell you I'll give this place away to every
man on the rOad.' The landlord was
considerably chagrined about the mat
ter, and sent out for a pair of panta-
looms, and as the rest of the clothes were
very elegant, an elegant pair was pur-
chased. The fellow was then taken to
breakfast and shown the best attention
the house could afford. After breakfast
the landlord gave him $40, as he had
to leave Immediately, and promised to
leave no stone unturned until the thief
was discovered. The cute young gen
tleman went to the restaurant, redeem

The Annexation of canada.

Sir John A. Macdonald's speech at Toronto.
Independence is a farce. Canada
must belong either to the British system
or the American system. Here we are
with with four and half millions of
people lying alongside of fOrty-fve mil
lions, the most unhappy position in
which nation can be placed;
the most crushing to its en-
ergies and its intellect, the most de-
structive to its prosperity, is that of liv-
ing next door to and at the sufferance
of powerful neighbOr. Look at Eu-
rope, and you see the position which
small nations occupy. Look at Bel
GUM and Holland. Belgium trembling
fears France will take her, and Holland
in fear of Germany. There is no spirit,
there is almost hOpelessness, in those
countries. And l say, looking at the
question Of independence, that il we
had to make choice between indepen-
dence and annexation, l would rather
that we should have annexation and
join with the United States at once, than
be here small nation, dependent ma
ton. obliged to raise the phantom of an
army and navy, obliged to have foreign
ambassadors at an enormous expense,
and after a brief existence to be absorb
ed as Texas and as California were alb
sOrbsd, and as Mexico will be absorbed.

AQueer Townin Nevada.

The most romantic town on the coast
is Meadow Lake. It's close to the sum-
nit of the Sierras, near beautiful lake.
1t grew up in one summer to a great
town. Thousands of people put thou
sands of dollars there. There was plenty
of gOld-rich gold Ore-there, but the
gold had terrible liking for the rock
and nobody could get it out. few
stayed the first winter. The snow fell
twenty or thirty feet deep. The people
made tunnels from Que house to another
and contriyed to get through the winter.
The only way in and out was on snow
shoes. The next spring everybody ran
away and the town collapsed and fell
down. Adventurous parties have every
year tried to work the ore, with very lit
tie success. The last news is that a pro-
cess has been tried which bids fair to be
a success.-[Truckee New Republican.
