And well knew that pebbles were below,
Because tho little wayog were laughing so.

The boating season he's already opened, and
many pleasure boats were out on the riv0r last
evening. Four and eight-oared crows from
the boat clubs were also out and the river was
quite gay. The private lighthouses are better
equipped than ever before, and arrangements
have been made for an unusually active boat

increased IN number, and Craftsmanship Will

system of making calls, which in
former years used to be carried on
to an excessive extent in this city
seer-s to be dying. Gentlemen are
no longer required to be on the go

The arrest of the man Kohifahl,
who under the pretence of educat-
ing men as detectives, and provid-
ing them with lucrative employ
ment, swindled a score or more gull

from twenty to two hundred dol
lars, shows to what an extent the
private detective business prevails,
and when one considers it's many
ramifcations, one is almost horri-
fed. Said prominent Sergeant
Detective of the police force to me
the other day: 'TThis business is the
curse Of the age, and is the cause
