Although City Council passed the
new market ordinance last evening,
1t seems that the question Is not yet
fully settled. There are great many
persons in this city who think that the
majority OF farmers and truckers, who
come here with their produce. would
prefer TO have some place to stand,
v here they would be sheltered from ho
weather. This morning Sergeant Deck
or aud officer Moore were Instructed
by tho Mayor to ASK each person stand
ing on King street the following ques-
ton, and make record OF their
answers would you not prefer to
sell your produce Ia a narset house,
provided the city would erect suitable
buildings tor that purpose 2"
The Ulcers faithfully attended 10 the
duty assigned them, and asked the
question OF each one who had wagon

An Ancient Haired Darling.

Elsewhere will be found the story of
q diamond pin found in the heart of an
oak in Maine. But still more curious
story of the same kind comes from Eng
land. An oak near Bethel was recently
cut down and sawn into planks. In one
of these was found hollow peg con-
tanning lock OF bright red hair, It
seems that two hundred and fifty years
ago, somewhere in the year 1900. some
lover had enclosed love knot, and bor-
ing a hole in the tree, deposited it there
in. The sap covered the token, and
there it lay concealed for two centuries
and a half, as Is shown by the rings in
the oak. What wonders have occurred
in England and the world, since this
lover hid away this lock of his red haired
darling. In modern times it is the fash
ion. when the corner stone of some in
stitution is laid, to place underneath
coins. memoranda. newspapers. and
other objects which it is supposed will
interest future generations when the
edifice is demolished But q pretty ro-
nance might have been written on this
lock Of bright red hair, had the lover
only LETT the date in the same hole with
the memento. Dsnsorest's Monthly.

When I came here, q poor, friendless
boy, without dollar in my pocket,
played for season as ..Mr. Davenport. y
l did very little, but tried to do what
l could and to do it well, but had very
little opportunity. returned to Phila-
delphia, and there for the first time
had the opportunity of being with that
grand old monarch Of the American
stage, Edwin Forrest. What lessons of
industry and perseverance did learn
from that grand old actor! He brought
me back to Boston in the character of
Pythias. l do not know but what this
will tire you, but it interests me, and
(cries of go on"' and applause) l
came here to open in that character with
him, and | was SO greatly frightened
that dressed about four o'clock in the
afternoon. The first thing had to do
was to save Mr.. Forrest from being as
sassinated by about fifty supernumer-
aries and the veriest supernumerary
could have knocked me over. I felt
like Claude Melnotte when he had lost
Pauline. However, l stammered on
and got through for little while
Then Mr.. Forrest took my hand, and
finding it was cold with perspiration,
he laid his hand on my shoulder and
said, "Cheer up, old fellow" have
only mentioned these things, ladies and
gentlemen, to show what a teacher and
what teaching I had. Nobody ever be-
gun the profession of the stage with less
prospect Of success than I did, and with
less prospect Of greeting such house
as this. To the gentlemen who signed
the card l wish to say that I am ex-
tremely honored to be recognized by
such names. To the people Of Boston
what can Isay? Boston has always been
very kind to me. To the press of Bos-
ton / want to return my thanks.

1t Game by Night.

A Detroit woman, with neighbors who
are determined to know all about her
business, found her husband at the
front door one night, two or three weeks
ago, in a befuddled state, and as she
pulled him in she cried out in voice to
be heard in either house,:
"Why, Henry, you got one O. them
epileptic fits again!''
A few nights after that he returned
home in such condition that he had to
creep up the steps on hands and knees,
and as she fastened one hand in his
hair and the other in his collar she said
for the benefit Of listeners;
81 told you the rheumatics would res
lapse on you if you exposed yourself!''
A night or two ago the old man was
assisted home by a pedestrian, who left
him lying on the sidewalk and rang the
bell and disappeared. The wife came
out, saw the neighbors peeping out, and
as she seized hold Of the stupefied man
she exclaimed.
'.Dear me! but 1t haa come at last!
The poor man would go down after my
shoes, and now I've got case of snow
blindness to look after for the next six
weeks.-DetrOH Free Press.
