Mary Green-Whats in name? Mary
Green by any other name would get asfull.
Well, there was full sapply Of booze in
Mary last night, and as she went careen-
ing down Market street about mid
night under full sail, she became quite
tired when opposite the REGISTER office,
and her eye alighting on Martins Thorn
toms cellar door, she evidently came to
the conclusion that it was as soft as any
place at that moment and just about her
size, so she remarked: ''Ah there! Stay
therer' And then she laid there.
The eye of the public is always attracted
by man lying on the sidewalk, and
when woman makes spectacle of her
self by going to bed on a cellar door, even
though she he only dusky Mary Green,
people are bound to stop and look on with
that curious gaze which cannot be exactly
defined, unless it be that of pity. Mary,
though very drunk, made use of her voice,

snatches of ribald song and crack the air
up into sharp pointed pieces. Her vocal
organs give forth no melOdiOus sounds
not by any means.
She soon secured an audience of not only
men, hut women, who were returning
home from q ball with their escorts. The
women pitied Mary-the men only TESTED at
her expense, but she did not mind that, and
kept up her singing until some one blew
whistle and Officer Bell appeared. But
Mary was rs Timber rs a rag with no starch
in il, and one man could not have gotten
her square away in an hour. When
the officer looked around on
the crowd it dispersed. They
could laugh at Mary, bat they didn't want
the thanSleSs job of helping her to the
lookup, so Officer Deku was telephoned
for. The officers found that both together
could not take the woman to the cooler,
and the crowd scattered again.
Mary was destined to 60 to the locku p

brought into service and she WAS dumped
into it. One officer furnished the motive
power while the other acted in the capac-
ity of footman and coachman, and the
parade moved on amid the cheers of the
throng. The cart that Away carries mail,
last night carried female, and Mary slept
in the cooler.

l. MIR. Cleveland Stronger with the
People than He was in 1881?

1t IS very frequently ayerrei, remarks
the New Nork SJjn, that since Mr.. Cleve-
land became President he has gained in
popularity with the people, and that in
consequence his denomination and re-
election in 1888 have become almost a
certainty. Perhaps it Is 81. and perhaps
it isn't. The evidence on either side is
not altogether conclusive.
Ii is plain. hov,yer, that the election
of 1888, like tia, Of 1884. will probably
be decided by the State Of New York;
and the question regarding Mr.. CIeve-
land may accordingly be reduced to that
State. Is he stronger in New York now
than ne was in 1884, or is he weaker:
In 1884, as every one remembers, after
a very animated contest. when the
chances seemed TO be all against him,
Mr.. Cleveland was finally pulled through
in this State by plurality of one thous-
ami in an aggregate vote of l,16I. 900;
and this plurality, as all intelligent poll
ticians are aware, was due TO an accident
committed by the Rev. Mr.. Burchard.
A considerable part OF the New York
Democracy was very earnestly opposed
70 Mr.. Cleveland in 1854, as the above
figures demonstrate. Has he done any
thing since 10 reconcile these hostile
Democrats, and to make friends of them
instead of opponents:
The Democratic opposition TO Mr..
Cleveland in New York was mainly,
though by no means exclusively, among
citizens of Irish origin. There was the
pinch of the difficulty in his case; and

The natural rate Of respiration Is from SIX

Wendell Holmes has explained the popularity
of the octosyllabic verse by the fact that 1t
follows the natural rhythm of respiration
more exactly than any other. Experiments
with the poetry of Scott, Longfellow, and
Tennyson show that an average of twenty
lines will be read in a minute, 50 that one res
piration will suffice for each line. The artic-
