THE RUTLAND SHAVING CAsE.-The suit OF Cox
agains' Eayres, brought against the superinten-
dent o the house Of correction for damages in cut
ting off the plaintiffs whiSkers the plaintiff hav-
ing been prisoner was ordered for trial at Rut-
land on Friday. This case is achieving notorety
having be- already tried by two inries who re-
turned heavy verdict- for tie plaintiff Cox was
fined for selling liquor, and was committed Till
the fine should be paid. BY law he had twenty
four hours to pay The fine, II not paid then i'm
prisonment followed Cox declared he would
not pay and agreed to waive his privilege OF wait
ing twenty-four hours before his imprisonment
should begin. The first ceremony with COM
mitted prisoner Is tonsorial. Cox had a heavy
red beard of some dozen years' growth, and
when he saw the BARRIERS chair he changed his
mind, and wanted till next day to raise the
money and pay up. The suh-keeper, in whose
hands he was, told him he was too late, pushed
him into the chair and had him shaved dry,
without first cutting the beard with shears
Next day Cox took cold and came rather near
diving, The doctors swore 1t WAS caused by the
shaving, the judges held that the officers had no
right to shave him till the twenty -four hours
were up, and both iuries gave him rousing big
verdicts hut each time there was some informal
ity in the trial, and now the poor fellow has got
to 60 it all over again.

AWaif'a BurinI.

A little female founding about three
months of age died yesterday on Beal
street at the house of Mrs. V. Washing
ton, sick nurse. The latter has cared
for the unknown infant since it was wee
thing, and she became closely attached to
it. The dead infant was followed TO Elm
wood yesterday afternoon by the foster
mother and a number of her neighbors,
together with a street car full Of little
folks who reside in the vicinity, and who
knew the bright eyed parentless little girl
whom they sometimes used to chuck
under the chin to make it coo or TO watch
its innocent smile. The little wait was
carried to the nurse with whom it
died, nearly three months ago,
by young man who deposited
$2O with the infant, and said he would
send SIS additional each month to pay for
the trouble of rearing it, but since that
time nothing further has been heard of
him. Hegave his name as Charles Berto,
and said he was clerk in railway Office;
but after diligent inquiry no
trace of such person has
been found in the railway business of this
city or vicinity. Some time ago it be-
came known to certain humane citizens
that the strange child was in Mrs. Wash
ingtOn's charge, and arrangements were
made to have 1t turned over to the care of
one of the asylums, A prominent Adams
street lady, well known for her benevo-
lent deeds, expressed willingness to
adopt and rear the infant, as soon as it
might be deemed safe to change
its abode, and the kindly old
nurse, though rather 10th at first, consent
ed to give it up. Those who interested
themselves about the child, after viewing
all the surroundings, concluded 'twould
be best to let the nurse keep il for while
longer. She was doing all she could to
make it comfortable, feeding it with con-
densed milk, and when attending to calls
elsewhere would have neighbor give it
such attention as its demands required.
A few days ago, however, it sickened, and
a physician was called, but medical skill
failed to give relief and it died yesterday,
as noted above. The nurse not wishing to
have it inferred as pauper at the expense
of the county, the humane society made
up couple of dozen dollars by subscrip-
ton to defray the expenses of coffin and
a small space in Elmwood cemetery, where
it was laid to rest last evening. The nurse
lived in hope that the young man who
first engaged her services would
appear at some time and
pay her as he had promised, but henever
came, and it was taken to the grave
withou: knowledge of its parentage.
While it lay in its coffin, previous to
being conveyed to Elmwood, a sad look
ing young woman, accompanied by an
elderly person Of her own sex, visited and
scanned the remains and they watched
the little procession as it moved away,
but they did not ask any questions, nor
tell who they were. 1t is possible those
ladies might have lifted the veil of mys-
terry hanging over the short career Of the
little stranger 4

'ssIy Maryland" Again.

A harp player familiar with music to 4
certain degree, charges that martial air
"My Maryland" was wholly borrowed
from a popular German song, beginning
"0h, Tanneabaum" and which is as old
as the hills. He further says, 1.-THE music
and text can be found in every German
students song book, and there is probably
not a single Teuton in all Germany who
has not chimed It in and out of school, for
at least two or three generations Doubt
less this man Of harps is correct. 1t is
nevertheless fact that the name of Theo-
dore Won LaHache, Of New Orleans, dead
for IL years past, first appeared on ths
published MUSIC ahoets containing the
words of "My Maryland" written by las.
H. Randall. Professor LaHache, who was
a fine musician and clever composer. had
a faculty for searching out old and popu-
lar airs, and adapting them TO
English words, the same as Sir
Arthur Sullivan, the author of
the muaicgl portion Of "Pinaiore'' and
.'IolantheP has ofpicking scraps Of meio,
diods gems out Of operas shelyed long
ago, and adopting them TO his use, The
musical air entitled 1.-THE Washineton
Artillery Quickstep," a very popular
march ell over The South IN war flmes.
and still occasionally heard, was said to
have been arranged by LaHache from
Two or three old PFussian marches which
were popular in, Europe after the fall Of
Napoleon. "My Maryland" however
was very, good song and i n...ss.ses no
ditierencea :s.hhess where the music came
from originally any more than does the
fact that the Bonnie Blue Flag o5
which Harry Mccarthy was the reputed
author, was originally "The Irish Jaunt,
ing Car" or that "Dixie' was first writ
ten in New York City by old Dan Emmett,
minstrel performer and musician, now
living in an advanced age in Chicago, and
which was first sung in tue South several
months before the war broke out by
"BullIleys Serenaders."

About hundred little girls are now reeu-

they take in the work, their regular at
tendance and the immense Improvement
they have made Is very complirnentarv TO

Juvenile IOIanthe.
The audience last night at the theater
was nearly double that of the night be-
fore in point of numbers, and the specta-
tors accorded the performance of
"1olanthe' the most fattering reception.
The acting of the young people was very
clever, the scenic features were beautiful.
but the singing rather tame in some re-
spects. though very good for children.
from whom not much is to be expected in
a lyrical way. The entire list of go young
people which make up the cast of the
juvenile "Iolanthe" exhibit surprising
precosity, and at the same time testify to
the patient toll of their instructor Mrs.
Q. II. Fits, in training them for the work
ofillustrating the opera in so creditable a
manner The lady will doubtless realize
but little profit out of the venture, but she
has performed excellent work in the way
of instruction, and when she comes back
from abroad next fall each individual
little one in the list will likely be enrolled
as her especial pet pupil.
