TIE FLIP GEnrND CASE.

The long pending case of the sale of the

day. The case dates back several years
and WIS opened in the Municipal Court: 1t

at which meeting it was decided TO sell the
ground and R, &. Barr, Esq., wes appointed

were not present at the meeting and they
objected claiming the meeting was illegally
called. An injunction was secured, re
straining the sale of the property and the
case went from one court TO the other until
it landed in the Supreme Court. The court
decided it, yesterday, affirming the Juds-
ment of the lower court. 1t held that no
evidence was before it to show that Earl
Oglebay was Secretary and had authority to
caA the meeting, Therefore, with few
notifications, the injunction was made per-

The Orange Tree.

The orange tree is the longest-lived fruit tree known. It is reputed to have obtained the age of 300 years, and it has been known to have fourished and borne fruit for more than 100 years. No fruit tree will grow and produce fruit so we'll under rough treatment. It commences to bear the third or fourth year after budding, and by the fifth year it will produce an abundant crop, but it's yield will increase gradually under favorable circumstances, and as the years pass on it will become a very productive tree. The early growth of the orange is quite rapid, and by the tenth year it will have increased more than in the next fifty years, so far as its breadth and height are concerned; but its age multiplies its fruit stems greatly, and an old tree will sometimes bear several thousand oranges

An Engine Drivers Talk.

''It was in my fathers time, before l was driver that this happened. An aunt of mine, youngish woman then,
 was travelling by the G. ". R. ('Great Way Round they used to call us) when young man entered the carriage,
 where she was sitting alone, and asked where the train stopped first. This was (say) at Paddington. My aunt said Reading was the first station and the train immediately started. Excuse me, ma'am, said the gentleman, but will you oblige me by cutting my hair
 little ? My aunt thought the man WAS mad, but being alarmed by his manner my aunt consented. Then the young man changed his coat, his collar, his waistcoat and tie. He put on pair of spectacles, and when my aunt dared to look at him he was for all the world like clergyman, an elderly gentleman in spectacles Now said he, you must promise to be quiet, and never contra dict me. If you do you will rue it. So my aunt-she was young thcn-prom- ised, and before they reached Reading the train was stopped. A guard and a constable came up, and looked into every carriage. Have you the tickets, dear ? said the man to my aunt. All right, sir, said the guard. We don't want to disturb you at all. We are looking for some one eIse.' The train went on, but the 'old' clergyman, as he seemed, left the train at Reading. He had committed forgery, but by disguis- ing himself escaped. Clever rogue, was he not ?"-LittLe FoLk's Magazine.

A Poor Circulation.

Newspaper men are very sensitive. Not concerning their dress, their piety, or ability to pay debt, but of their circulation. There is Colonel Harquies, for instance. He rather likes personal abuse, and, upon his private life, severe criticism has no more effect than an autumn drizzle falling on the back of a hard.shell turtle; but you must not hint that his paper does not carry in it's hip pocket a wad of great influence. Several days ago the colonel was taken violently i'll. He ragged in the delirium of high fever, and his wife, becoming alarmed, sent for two prominent physicians. When the medical gentlemen arrived, the editor was wallowing in tragic doze. One of the physicians approach ing, took hold of the colonel's arm, and turning to his companion, said: "Circu- lation very poor" "What l" exclaimed the editor, springing up, "poor eircula- ton Why, confound you, work sixty quires. Get away from here, you scoundrels, and with loud imprecations and demonstrations of violence he drove the medical gentlemen from the room. --ArkansaaU TraUeter.

How A Rear-AdmiraI was Made.

One morning, when the Duke of Clarence, having received his commis- sion and his ship, was on his way to his tailor's in Plymouth, to get the new uni form, at a street corner he saw boy crying, and stopped to inquire the cause. The lad looked up through his tears, re- vealing handsome, winning, and intel hgent face, and replied that his mother had died only few days before. and that he had been cast homeless into the streets. "Where is your father?" asked the Prince. "He was lost in the Sussex, on the Cornwell coast. two years ago" |" "How would you like to go to sea in a first-rate man. of-war?" The boys face frightened as he answered that he would like it very well. The Prince took out his pocketbook and wrote something upon slip of paper, which he gave to the boy, with shilling. ''Go down to the docks," he said, "and with this shilling you will hire a boatman to carry you of to the Pegasus. When you get on board the ship you will give this paper to the officer whom you find in charge of the deck, and he will take care of you. Cheer up, my lad Show me that you have true heart, and you shall surely find true friend" Arrived on board the Pegasus. the officer of the deck received him kindly, and sent him to sit upon a gun-carriage under the break of the poop. In less than an hour the Prince came of in his new uniform, and the boy WAS strangely moved upon discovering that the man who had prom ised to be his friend was none other than William, Duke of Clarence, and Captain of the frigate. The boy, whose name was Albert Dover, was taken into the cabin, where the Prince questioned him, and forthwith he ordered him.to be rated as 0 midshipman, and from his own purse he procured him an outfit. During the voyage to the American coast the Prince became strongly attached to his youthful protege, keeping him about his person continually, and instructing him in general branches of education, as well as in his profession. Time passed on and the boy grew to be man, serv. ing King and country faithfully. In time William became King, and signed the commission which made Albert Dover Rear-Admiral. He exclaimed, as he put his signature to the document: "There-if I have ever done a good deed for England, it was when I saved to her service that good and worthy mani

The Colossus of Rhodes.

The city of Rhodes is situated on the island of that name, which lies some twelve miles from the coast of Asia Minor. Itwas founded 400 years before the birth of Christ, and among other things it was noted for its colossus, which was reckoned to be one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. The colossus was gigantic statue in brass of Helios, or the sun, and stood at the entrance of one of the ports. It was 105 feet high. According to one belief-which, however, is now aban- doned-the colossus bestrode the har- bor, one foot resting upon pier at one side, the other upon pier at the other, while the figure itself was so lofty that ships in full sail could pass underneath the outstretched legs. Sixty years after it was built it was thrown down by an earthquake.-Little Folks Magazine.

A GREAT WHALE STORY.
How Boy Was Blown Ftfty Feet by |
 Monster of Ihe Deep.

Not very often does boy get the chance of sitting on the blowhole of a live whale; nor, probably, having done so once, would he be likely to repeat the experiment-at least if he had read or been told of what happened the other day to Shetland lad who had inadvert. ently seated himself upon the nostrils of stranded behemoth. The veracious narrative states that the whale had drifted inshore, having gone aground upon an ice foe, and SO had been washed out of the deep water to one of the islands. An old fisherman with his boy had arranged to fasten rope or chain round the creature's tail, and it was at this moment of triumph that the young ster is said to have seated himself upon the forehead of the leyiathan. Becom- ing aware of some obstruction to its breathing, it gave great snort and sneezed the boy fifty yards out to sea. The boy, it is added, was not hurt, but much surprised, as we'll he might be. To sit down uneoncernedly on the ori- flee of an active volcano, and be sud- denly blown up into the air is calculated to astonish even the most phlegmatic temperament. Asiatic apathy could hardly stand unmoved such an unex- pected and forcible test. much less a frivolous urchin, who, very proud, no doubt, of his lofty perch, found himself all of a sudden puffed up beyond all his expectations, and his small, graceless body flying through space like a marble from blow pipe. And there is not much on whales head to catch hold of. It is smooth, polished and sloping, so that when the impetus came from be- heath up he had to go, like a clay pigeon of the trap. There was no help for it, and go he did, fifty feet up in the air and fifty yards out to sea. It was a lesson to him not to go about sitting on whales blowholes-at any rate until they are securely plugged up-and We may be tolerably certain that even if that Shetland boy lives to become the oldest inhabitant of the island he will never again be found taking 8 seat on the escape pipe of even the smallest ce- tacean.
