A Syracuse justice of the peace
postponed a trial on account of the
death of the prisoners mother, the
prisoner asking the favor in piteous
aud fearful tones. When the trial
was resumed two days after it was
found that the prisoner had gone to
Canada, and that his mother had been
dead nine years. The justice says
the next man that tries to play a
corpse on him has got to produce the
body or certificate from the doctor
who attended the deceased. That
would seem to be fair.

he broke every command he had re

THE LATEST "CRAZE.v
Fashionable Ladies Gathering Collec.
tiOns Of Advertising Cards.

The latest craze in the east is a rage
for collecting fancy cut advertising
cards. During the past few months
all the leading business houses of the
east have adopted this means of ad-
vertising, in addition to their standing
advertisements in the newspapers,
and the result is that the streets are
flooded with cards Of the oldest de-
signs Imaginable, such as fans, autumn
leaves, palettes, aquarelles, birds. in
sects, chromos, etc. These are col
lected and lastly arranged in albums
manufactured for the purpose, the
object being to get as many varieties
as possible. Some young ladies boast
of collections Of 1000 and 5000 cards,
and even staid matrons can be heard
extolling their advertising albums.
Advertising is decidedly invading the
domain Of art.

A BRASH MOVE.
A Prisoner Escapes from the County
Jail. but Is Recaptured.

f. Brash, who was arrested in con-
nection with the burglaries and grand
larceny proceedings against Ralph
Johnson and James Woodruff, and
held as witness for the people, was
allowed partial freedom in the Jail,
and not guarded closely, as no COM
plant has been filed against him.
Brash "squealed" on johnson and
Woodruff, in the expectation of being
liberated, but finding new grand
jury had been ilnpanneled, and that
he was in danger of being indicted,
he watched his chances and during
the absence Of the jailer skipped for
the lower country. The grand jury,
upon hearing of the facts in connect
ion with the burglaries and grand lar
ceny, found bill against all three,
and Brash wher. sought turned up
missing. Bob. Boyd, the keeper, i'm
mediately took the road south and
overhauled the fugitive Monday at
o'clock, at Cottonwood-from which
place he returned yesterday with him
If the prisoner had not been SO brasl

Called TO Account.

The Boston Advertiser reviews the action
Of the Massachusetts, delegation in con-
gress upon the river and harbor bill. While
giving the senators and representatives OF
that state credit for good work done in this
congress, it severely condemns their votes
in favor Of that measure, and demands their
punishment by the people. The Advertiser
thus closes its article "For the votes which
the Massachusetts members gave for this
measure there can be no excuse. The
country did not need the appropriations, the
people did not desire them to be made Ger
tainly we do not say that the votes for the
bill stamp those who gave them as bad and
dangerous men but we do say that the act
was one which properly shakes public con-
fdence in six at least of our members and
in both of our senator's, and makes 1t most
serious question for the voters Of the common
wealth to consider whether this is not case
which calls for such action on their part as
will teach public servants that they are un-

The SneZ Canal.

The Suez Canal is about one hundred
miles in length, extending from Port Said
to Suez, having a surface width Of three
hundred and twenty-five feet and width of
seventy-two feet at the bottom, and water
depth Of twenty-six feet, with no locks.
The work of constructing this canal was be-
gun in 1854, under charter from the vice
roy of Egypt, running for ninety.nine years,
and was completed on the 18th of August,
1860, consuming period of fifteen years,
and connecting the waters of the Red and
the Mediterranean Seas. The canal was
formally opened on the 18th of November,
1869. In 1875 the British government,
through the Rothschilds, purchased from
the khedive of Egypt 176,602 of 100000
shares, paying sl,0S0,000 for these shares.
The traffic through the canal has steadily
increased from 4S6 vessels, with tonnage
of 435, 9l1 and receipts amounting to 81 ,03l,-
S65 in 1870, to, in 1881, 2,727 vessels, with
tonnage of 5,794000, and receipts of &c.,
254,S00. England furnished in 1881 eighty
two per cent and in 1880 seventy-nine per
cent of the entire tonnage. De Lesseps
Ditch" that was once laughed at by Eng
lishmen, has proved of the utmost value to
Great Britain.
