DUBLIN, June 27.-Earl Spencer's fare
well levee was attended this afternoon by
about "a thousand quests. Ills official de-
parture passed off well on the whole.
However, just outside the castle gates,
the father OF "J0e" Poole, who was exc
cuted for II Fenlan murder during the
Speucerian administration, eXcitedly eX-
claimed as the royal carriage passed by:
"rhere goes The man who murdered my
son, repeating this yOlubly and loudly.
Then he commenced bOOting that was
taken up by some fifty bystanders, who
were led by Smith. father OF one Of the In
vincibles. These followed the vice-rC gal
carriages along the whole route, con.
tIuually groaning, but their efforts were
constantly succeeded by the cheers OF
the Ulster men and lOyalists. Next, as
the yice-regal carriage passed Wester-
land Row Chapel there We're fresh boot
ings. Nothing unusual occurred TO invite
police interference. At k;ngstown a large
number were on the jetty, who gave
hearty farewels. The Countess Spencer,
who has lived here altogether nine years
daring the Ear's TWO terms, cried, and
Lord Spencer also seemed much affected.
His successor will soon arrive, and is
promised good reception from all sides,
as win the now law officers, who are pop

Talking about finding money"
said old Sport, would you believe
me If | told you / found $1,000 one
times 1t was 10 Washington. The
occasion the Inauguration of Grant.
and there were 200. 900 people in the
streets. / saw small green thing
lying on the pavement, and some,
thing prompted me to pick il up.
Ordinarily ! wouldn't stop to pick up
things on the street, but this time |
thought I'd chance 1t. After pick
ing the green thing up | thought il
was patent medicine advertisement,
and was on the point of throwing it
away, but | wasn't very busy lust
then, so | unrolled it, and when |
saw ii was q 81, 00o bill | was scared
to death. Twas dealing bank then.
and | didn't know what to do with
the find, because couldn't make up
any excuse for the possession of so
much of the filthy The main guy
would swear that l was holding out
on him, and there would be the devil
to pay, and you can bet it would
take the whole of the thousand to
pay him. So took the bill to nv
boarding house, and stuck it between
the covering of my trunk and the
outside. looked at the paper for
several days, but couldn't see any
advertisement for lost 81 900 bill.
| didn't dare get it changed in Wash
irgton, because it would soon be
noised around that had a big roll,
and the snap would be given away.
Each day / would reconnolter
around the old trunk 10 see il the
bill was safe, and I'd change her
from place to place. The fact that
the loss was not advertised led me
to suspect that the blooming bill
might be counterfeit. and l was in a
terrible stew. But | held on to il.
One day l went over TO. New York
and took the bill with NE At last
| screwed mp my courage to slap the
bill down on the counter of a bank
and asked TO have ii changed. The
dealer, or rather cashier, grabbed it
up and squinted all over both sides
of it. and imagined everybody In
the world was looking at me. Mind
you. this was three months after |
had found the bill. After cycling the
bill for q few seconds the cashier
laid 1t aside. and l didn't know
whether he was going TO set the dog
on me or what; but he clinched on to
fist full of fifty dollar bills and
counted out twenty Of them. which
he handed TO me. So that was all
right Well, felt pretty gay, and
| went down to Sandy Hook, and
from there to Long Branch, then
back to New York. over TO Phils-

got broke."-Cincinnati Enquirer.
