On Account of a Lady's Train.

As large audience was coming out of Q theater the other evening a consider able commotion was noticed ill one part of the crowded throng. There appeared Q break in the otherwise closely filled space, and men were to be seen holding themselves back from this opening, and exerting all their powers to avoid being pushed into it by the surging multitude behind and on both sides of them. Hats were knocked off ill the crush, we'll polished boots, and the corns they inclosed, were trodden upon; here and there choice bit of profanity foated from the struggling mass and was waited away into space. In short, there was a general scene of confusion and disturb ance. What had happened? Had a section of the floor fallen in? Had some- body dropped in a fit? Was there fire ? these were but few of the many ir- terrogatories which those who were too far away to see anything propounded to others who were no more favorably situ- tLLSus iNOS UAIC bLOuDAO "pHo hou SuIoCSA by any such incidents as these; 0 richly dressed woman, who had on a splendid velvet gown, was proceeding from the audience room with four-foot train dragging behind her, and the struggling men were making frantic attempts not to step on it. Finally very flushed and disarranged man was violently pro- pelled forward by the pressure at his back and planted both feet firmly on the extended garment. The wearer thereof was brought up "all standing" there was significant sound of ripping stitches, and the woman turned around and said in voice compounded of ice vinegar and carving knives, "Will you get off from my dress?" The man re. mained immovabIe. "No, lam, said he, "not until you apologize. The wo
 man stared for moment, then turned very red and stammered, "Er-will you excuse mel" Certainly" said the other, with bow. The train was picked up, the procession renewed its march and faint murmur of applause hummeG pleasantly through the air.-Bostor Journal.

The Fathers Search.

No sadder story was ever told in the pages of romance than that of the cruel abduction of little Charlie Ross and the wanderings of the unhappy father, who has been dragging his sorrows about from place to place for nine weary years ill vain search for his lost child Every new clue, while it brings with it hope, tears open the wounds of the parents heart and they bleed afresh. Every new disappointment recalls the anguish of the first wretched hours of bereavement.
 Now the search leads to the far West, where brother of Mosher, the supposed abductor of the child, was recently lynched for murder. Before he died he dropped hints prompting the belief that Charlie had been carried out to Wyom- ing Territory, and the father hastens to Cheyenne to investigate the story. We fear the search is destined to end as so many others have done before it.
 If the child could be found and re- stored to his parent all the world would rejoice. Every heart would breathe a silent prayer of thankfulness and joy. But even then there would be touch of sadness mingled with the bliss of re- union. Poor Charlie when stolen from his parents was little four-year-o prattler, with bright eyes and golden hair and merry laugh. The father will never again take the lost child to his heart as he was in those days. To wholly heal the wounds he has receivedit would be necessary to set back the hand of time to enable him to fondle with the golden locks-to hear the childish voice lisp its joy-to kiss the fresh young lips as they used to be kissed in the happy days before the terrible sorrow fell upon the family circle. This can never be. Little Charlie is gone forever. The child If found will be a lad of thirteen or fourteen years, tried by diversity, probably without memory of his past history-of those who have suffered such anguish for his loss. No; there can be no thorough healing of the parents sor- TOW in this sad case. But every heart will send up 8 sincere wish that he may discover his son and that his weary search may at last be succeeded by such happiness as he can yet enjoy.-Ne,0

CANAAN CONN.,, WEDNESDAY,, OCTOBER 31 1883:
Outrages in Port au Prince.

A correspondent at Port au Prince sends the following:
 "On Saturday, September p, at eleven Q. m., a cry was heard, Revolution 1! Revolution It was then discovered that the General of the arrondissement, Penor, was shot. Five minutes after ward fire was put to all the leading mer- cantile houses. Many of the freproof buildings stood the fire. When that was discovered the rabble resorted to digging out the doors, windows and walls, gutting the stores and placing fire to them.
 ''Port au Prince may we'll be said to be ill ashes. The greatest consternation prevailed. Bunting of all nationalities was immediately hoisted at the several consulates and private houses. The fire lasted until Monday morning, the 24th.
 "The English, French and Spanish war ships, very fortunately for the for eigners, were in port, and the men of irrespective ships were landed. Thanks to the determined steps of the represen- tati7es of these nations their efforts re- suited in somewhat establishing order. A great many foreigners were roughly handled and in many cases shot. A few Englishman and one Cuban were brutal ly shot and several wounded. The coun- try was entirely given up, it is said, by the President for pillage and arson.
 ''The Secretary of the United States Legation, MT. Eugene V. Garrido, charged by the Vice. Consul General, Dr. John B. Terres, to procure flag for his protection, left the Legation for that purpose. While returning, enveloped in the Stars and Stripes, and when not over one hundred yards from the Con- sulate, he was shot at by some thirty or more men who were stationed at his door. The Secretary was compelled to retreat to friends residence close by, when a bullet came pretty near carrying away both. When he could manage to get out he found his residence reduced to ashes and all he possessed gone. On Sunday at about two p. m. the unfortu- nate Secretary was at the door of the Legation receiving some of the poor families that were burned out, an act en- tirely charitable and humane, when he was menaced and roughly handled by a mob who used bayonets and cutlasses.

A Thief to be Fitted.

A wife and mother who was exam ined in court in New York city and locked up on charge of having stolen largely from her employer seems to have had a peculiarly unfortunate lot. She has 8 drunken husband, who, pretending he could not obtain work, has been idle eleven years. All this time the wife has been obliged to support herself, her four children, and her husband; yet the drunken brute to whom she was tied seemed to want also that she should keep him in money with which to buy rum, and as she could not earn enough to pay for all necessities she yielded to his sug- gestion that she should rob her employ CT. She says her family got little of the proceeds of the stolen goods, most of the money having been spent for liquor. Finally, she refused to steal any more or to support her worthless husband, so her mother. Immediately afterward her employer was informed of her crime, and there is reason to suppose that her husband was the informant. Imagina- tion is not needed to invest the life of such 8 woman with painful interest. Affectionate, industrious, and disap- pointed, her natural and legal protector become an incubus and an object of con- tempt, she has probably suffered hun dred times more than the law can make her do, and if the informant was really her own husband no amount of pity can l be greater than she deserves.

Dishonest Pension Claim Agents.

District Attorney Corkhill in Wash ington has written letter to Secretary Teller on the fraudulent transactions of certain pension claim agents, ill which he proposes to make thorough inves- tigation of the charges made by those who have been the sufferers. He says he has become satisfied that the Grand Jury of the District should give these complaints thorough investigation, so that innocent men may not be subject to unjust imputations and the guilty may be brought to answer them. He thinks the character of the enormous frauds which are being perpetrated upon applicants for pensions by certain claim agents of Washington will. if the ale gations made are sustained by the evil dence, surprise the public. In conclud- ing the letter the District Attorney says:-
 1.-The persons defrauded are poor and comparatively helpless and'form 8 class to whom the country owes special protection. If the representations made to me concerning the devices used to de- fraud them of their little earnings are true, they rival in cunning the arti6ces of the most experienced swindlers who practice three-card monte and similar games. If nothing else were accom- plished by the investigation it would at least warn soldiers and their widows and orphans of their danger and prevent in future their being swindled of their money, and it will vindicate honest agents from unjust suspicion. 2

AN AMATEUR LAWYER.
Yankee Wit That Paid Board Bill and
 Laid the Foundation for u Fortune.

A Yankee. named Mather. who had been for twelve years in an insurance office, was in Cincinnati, out of work, and living on ten cents day. He had a room with certain Mrs. Sterne, and as his bill there was assuming respecta- ble proportions, and he had no imme- diate prospects of being able to liqui- date, he decided to "skip by the light of the moon." That very day, his land lady inquired:
 "Aren't you lawyer, MT. Mather ?"
 Quick as thought, he responded:
 "Yes."
 "Well, said Mrs. Sterne, ''I want to get your advice. My husband has left me, and wants to get hold of the policy of insurance on his life, which I have. Gan he do so, and sell it back to the company
 MT. Mather examined the policy, and, feeling doubtful on one point, told her he would advise her the following morning. He repaired at once to the law office of friend, and in an of-hand way gained the information he desired, and the following day gave his final de- cision to Mrs. Sterne.
 He had then accumulated few dol lars, and asked his landlady the amount of his bill.
 "Why, you are not going, are you?. I hoped you would board out your bill against me for your advice"
 ''That's so, we lawyers can't advise for nothing. But I must go to-day. How much is your bill?" 'sTwelve dollars, " said she.
 ''Well, you're hard working little woman, and, if you'll give me $8, I'll call our accounts square. though would. charge anybody else $5O." Mrs. Sterne handed over the money with many expressions of appreciation, and her guest departed penniless and owing for his lodgings, but free oi debt, and having $8 in his pocket.
 The best part of the story is that the money thus obtained gave him start, from which he quickly arose to 8 posi- tion of affiuence, and almost his first act after becoming established in a busi- ness yielding an income of $50.00O 8 year was to hunt up Mrs. Sterne and send her check for $1O,0OO, with the story that have here told.
 Of course the names given are not the real ones, but this sharp Yankee is now prominent business man in large New England city; and the story have related heard from his own lips.
