MONDAY EVENING. MARCH is.
WINE TURNED INTO BRICKS.

THE iauitor of Madison-square Garden,
while preparing for the advent of the Bar
mum show, on Monday found case OF
champagne hidden under small pile OF
bricks near the southeast corner ofthe build
ing. The jauitor reflected upon this occur
renee, and. being wise in his day and gene,
ration, he came to he conclusion thatlt nao
been stolen from the restaurant during the
skating race last week, and that the thief
who had hidden it was intending to carry
il away whenever he got the opportunity.
Therefore the janitor pried open the oox'
removed all the bottles of wine. care1uily
loaded the box up with bricks, replaced IL
"A il had been found, and awaited develop
ments.
, The developments arrived yesterday al
ternoou in the shape of q man with pau.
He told the janitor that be had borrowed
the pail in tue morning Of one OF the circus
bcstlers. and bad promised to put it right
back where he got it.
"You needu't trouble yourself" said the
iapitor, "I'll take it over there"
Now. excuse me-" said the stranger,
"But promised the Teller l borrowed 1t OF
thai I'd set it right back exactly IN the same
place took it FROM"
well, lne ]anitor saiu, Sou W T,,
TO do it, and that makes you all right. LII
see that it's put back all right"
81 don't like that at al, said the borrow
or ..Wben I tell man I'll do thing
ALWAYS like to do just as say I will. My
conscience won't be- easy after him being
kind enough to lend me pail, an me a.
: promisin' to put it right back there, II L
don't do it."
The ianitor suddenly came to the concu-
sion that the man had an object in getting
into the Garden that might be connected
with the champagne box, aud he SAID ::
"Well 90 ahead and take it back then i;
but you're one Of the most honest men eV-
er saw"
No" said the stranger modestly, lit amt
that, but when say I'll do thing l always
like to do it,"
He went into the Garden, and the janitor
carefully watched him through the stable
partition. The man put the pail down,
looked around to see if any one was observ-
ing him, and then lodged around into the
corner where the box had been LETT. he
uncovered it, and seemed much gratitied to
End that it bad not been disturbed. The
ianitor, still watching him through the knot
hole, saw him shoulder the box with great
difficulty, apparently wondering at the in-
creased weight. Then the man walked
boldly out among the carpenters who are
building the seats in the Garden and started
for the northeast door. Nobody questioned
him, and when the janitor saw him last he
was on his way down Twenty-seventh street
with the precious box of bricks upon his
shoulder.
It is confidently believed that there was
weeping and gnashing of teeth when he
opened the box-N. Y. Times.
