The Champion Jack.Knife Art

William Yoke claims to be the champion
jack-knife artist of the day, although he was
born in St. Louis and not Yankeedom A
st. Louis Post-Dispaich reporter heard of
this professional lacerator of pine sticks and
sought him out. 1t was not until the inside
of an Unused Methodist church at Kirkwood
was reached that Mr.. Yoke aud his knife
were cornered, The knife was slashing ci-

The Grosvenor Gallery.

lLonoon Letter in N Y. Iribune.l
The Grosvenor Gallery is to have a grand
exhibition of Sir Joshua Reynolds best and
best authenticated pictures Eigh gdukes
have promised their collections, as well as
% marquisas, and earls and lords and COM
moners Without number. Many owners
willing to lend their pictures have expert
enced considerable difficulties in conse.
quence of their proprietary rights being con-
lined by the laws of entail to llfe-tenancy.
Hence the consent of trustees has becc me
necessity The ',sweils,'' as the vulgar call
them, have been very liberal in conseniing
to let Sir Coutts Lindsay have nearly 200
of their pictures-to be insured, hear, for
more than a200 900. The great Strawberry
Hill picture. THE Three Graces.'' is In
sute1 for $4,000 sterling, and the Duke of
Marlboroughs "Foriune-teller'' for a20, 900.
On the other hand, many noble owners do
not care to Insure at all. They say, like
Jones. the wonderful tailor who left his
priceless collection to the South Kensinetou
museum, mo insurance money you'd be

Joshuas on the list. We shall see all to-
gether, as we have seen apart, Warren Hast

who Is engaged in the good work of npulver
izing the rum power, in Ohio, and recently
visited this State Ia search of pnlverizing
material. tells In the ToledJ Blade some of
bis experiences in Portland. In his search
for liquor in this city, he says he was taken
dow long and short flight of stairs, and
turned to the left and to the right, and
up into dimly lighted room, with cheap
counter, where he finally found the stuff,
To show the devices to elude the officers
which the rumselleis employ, he re-
lates the case of an Irish woman, who has
room in the rear of her kitchen, in which
are several bottles in sight, and over each of
which is weight suspended by string.
Underneath is tub partly filled with water
impfegnated with kerosene oil. The off
GERS can enter by the front door only, and
when they approach she darts into the back
room and cuts the string Immediately the
weight descends and smashes the bottles
into tub, and the smell of the whiskey is
neutrslized by the kerosene oil. Mr.. Locke
does not tell us what becomes of the liquor,
but we presume that after the officers are
gone the contents of the tub are bottled and
sold for fifteen cents drink. If this be a
fact 1t tends to explain why liquor sold in
defiance of the Maine law is of the vile de-
scription which an esteemed morning con-
temporary recently pronounced it to be.

the PRESS needs redemption.
We beg to differ with him however il this
last belief Of his. The PRESS very likely
has been guilty of sins for which it NEEDS re-
demption, but the denunciation of this ''ma-
terializing'' fraud is not one of them. On
the contrary 1t is proud of its record in this
respect. 1t made public exposure of Mrs.
Hull aud drove her from the city, it will try to
