The police made a good haul or Decora

~ them. One was fined for abusing a wo'
man. He was reprimanded by the Judge
and told that there was no excuse tor a
man quarreling with a woman, and that the
man was always sure to come out second
best. The accused seemed convinced that
the Judge was about right. Most of the
others were charged with inordinate use OF
intoxicants, some getting full and others
drunk. Two of the full ones had made
merry by engaging in a mutual smuggling
encounter, and as q witness testified, one
getting the better of the other and making
him %sGueal.' Some other prisoners were con.
Gned in a cell which could not be opened
from some reason. No doubt the Prisonefs
were glad Of it,

A mysterious case OF smallpox in
Northern New York is believed to be
traceable to the use OF certain bank
bills which came from Montreal. The
suppositlon as to the origin Of this
particular case may be incorrect, but
there is much room for speculation
afforded by the incident, since people
are every, day compelled to handle
greasy silver coin and filthy bills which
have, perhaps, passed through the
hands and pockets OF persons afflicted
With contagious or infectious diseases.
There is no known means of proven
tion, since no one cam decline to re-
ceive whatever change may be offered
to him, provided it is. correct in
amount and OF legal value; but the
thought that one may be handling or
carrying in his pocket-book the germs
OF disease, is far from pleasant. e.

Labor Lost,

The following incident is autho:ita-
lively told Of a New York merchant
residing on Hancock ST., in Brooklyn.
Although a gentleman of comfortable
means, the merchant has frequently
economical tits. Desiring to surprise
his wife upon her ret,>rr fronsth
country, Mr.. --- concluded to under
take the task of warn si,ing his dining
room, which had lost some of its lus-
tire. After devot:ny some little time
to searching for u Dot Of varnish which
had been used on previous occasions,
the merchant, coatless and with rolled
up sleeves, began the job, which, af-
ter a labor of over eight hours, he fin
ished to his entire sat sfaction.
The following morning he rose car.
ly and his first mission was to exam
inc his work. Greatly to his surprise
he found, upon entering the room,
that the ''varnish' had not dried q
particle, although both doors and win
dows had been left open. "A closer
examination disclosed, lhe fact that
unfortunately he had8not found the
pot of varnish, and had act,H,,ly9v ar
nished the entire diningzrboal with
maple syrup! 9.PhIs ism true incide Mt
