Twenty-Five prisoners are in summer quar-
tiers in the Jail, the larger portion of whom
are undergoing sentence for drunkenness and
yagrancy. The number of prisoners always
falls off as warm weather approaches, and
begins to increase in the fall, reaching the
maximum in January or February. Tramps
are again getting numerous in the country
towns. They are dissolute, indolent set.
and naturally drop into crime. There is
plenty Of work nov at good prices up and
down the river and in the hay fields, and no
able bodied man need be without employ

1t has long been q source of wonder, as to
why Courtney failed to meet Hanlan in q
sculling contest. The general explanatory
argument was, that he feared the little Cana
dian. This opinion. however, is exploded by
the authentic announcement, that on the days
fixed for the race, Courtney was unable to
sit in his she'll, on account Of the intense itch
ing and soreness caused by the Piles. Hav-
ing recovered through the use Of Swayne's
Ointment, he now announces that he will row
Hanlan any time this Summer.

For Star-GaZers.

Into one short month 0he present
month Of May, says the Providence
Journal, are crowded more important
events than those that sometimes illus
months. The conjunction Of the three
largest planets Of the system with the
sun, the conjunction of six planets with
each other, the superior conjunction OF
Mercury, the total eclipse of the sun
Invisible here), and the occultatien
Jupiter, form brilliant succession of
phenomena as imposing to the mental
eye as they are beautiful to the physi-
cal eye. The grand feature Of the
month is, however, the number of
planets in line with the sun at nearly
the same time, and the marvellous pre-
ponderance Of planetary attraction pull
ing upon the sun in one direction
Mercury ia first to drop in line, S'turn
ard Neptune follow next, and gigantic
Jupiter is the last to join the ranks.
The sun is now passing through the
maximum of sun spots. Whether Tie
planets have anything to do with
the co.nmotion agitating his surface is
something which no astronomer has
vet been able to determine. The prob
lem remains to DC solved in the astrOn-
olnv of the future.

Do Birds Bury Their Dead.

In tree near an old fashioned farm
house in Vermont, two robins built
heir nest. A lady watched them as
they formed their summer home. One
morning she found three blue-spccl1led
eggs, and later three tiny little birds.
While trying their wings one daE, eat
injured one Of the young birds before
the lady could rescue it. She placed
the little one back in the nest to receive
its parents tender care, but it WIS too
late, and the robin died. 4 few days
after, the lady, seeing and heali :,
nothing of the other bird-, visited the
nest, and found they had built q
thatched roof over TIE poor little bird,
and there it lay upon its hack, With itS
claws sticking up through the strAw-.
They had buried their dead and desert

MAKING A PASSENGER "GIT."

A justice of the pease in the interior
of Michigan had a case before him
some days ago in which the defendant,
who had been arrested as suspicious
character, and pleaded guilty to va
grancy, was sent to the Detroit house
of correction for six months. A con-
stable took him in charge to deliver
him there, taking him aboard the
train ; and as the man seemed rather
pleased at the idea of securing board
and lodging for six months he was not
handcutfed. As the train was about
ready to 60 the constable moved
across the aisle to talk politics with a
friend, and pretty soon they were
having it hot and heavy. When the

up at the crossing you jump off. i'll
find you on the train after we pass
there I'll give you bounce that you

In two minutes the train began to
slow, and the prisoner walked to the
door, picked soft spot and dropped
off. When the train had made an
other mile the conductor held out his
hand to the constable and received
two tickets.

asked.
