animated appearance last evening. The
pretty girls who frequent Anti Poverty's fair
looked prettier and lighter hearted than ever,
for they were about honoring three favorites
of the fair, DIR. jeremiah Coughlip. the Man
ager; Sylvester Malone, the Treasurer, and
his brother, Tucker Malone.
The banquet was prepared unde the di-
rection of Mary Halligan, who runs the
restaurant, and the menu was such as would
tempt the most e%picurean una being. II
was served in the restaurant, and some two
hundred and fifty persons partook of the
good things with which the tables were laden.
James Redpath presided, and at the proper
time toasted Our Guests" Other toasts
followed. In fact every one was toasted.

She IL Bringing Brave Can't. slocum and
Family Home from Brazil
Somewhere on its way TO Baltimore from
South America, the little sailing canoe Silver
dale ia in all probability bounding over the
sea. Its passengers are Capt. Joshua Slocum,
his wife and two sons, whose remarkable
story is told by Capt. Baker, of the Brazilian
mail steamer Finance, Just arrived in this
port.
Capt. Slocum left baltimore two years ago
on the bark Aquidneck and went to the River
Plate. Argentine Republic, starting thence
with o return cargo OF coffee for Rio Janeiro.
The latter port was closed by a cholera
quarantine, and after two attempts to enter,
one of them after the quarantine was sup
posed TO have been lifted, Capt. Slocum had
to give up and discharge his cargo where he
took II on. His next misfortune. the break
ing out of smallpox IN his bark. was quickly
followed by his being driven ashore while on
his way to a Brazilian port with q new cargo.
His bark was condemned and he built the
30-foot canoe Silverdale. Capt. Baker towed
him from Santos TO Rio Janeiro five months
ago, and from there he sailed the canoe to
Pernambuco, making the run at the rate of
126 miles per day.
The skipper and his family expressed them
selves as comfortable and we'll provided for
on their little craft and refused Capt. Bakers
offer 20 take them on the Finance. They
would not give up the brave little Silverdale.
Capt. Baker last saw them of Barbados.

ing closed, as if the people were not back
from the country.
1t was a handsome brown-stone house and
looked as if il might have silverware or brio

eaGily removed, valuable enough to tempt the
passing burglar who should notice the delicate
consideration for him shown by the good
people who had charge of the house in leav-
ing the windows open. He would only have
to go up the steps. easily climb from them TO
the window-sill and get in as comfortably as

The street was perfectly deserted most of
the time at hat hour of the night. and moth

There 's an eccentric old Englishman
named Holdrich in charge of one of the horse
cars Of the Greenville line in Jersey City,
who is familiarly known as Pop"
Pops" car is always crowded with school
boys in the morning.
One day recently the old gentleman planted
himself in the rear doorway and delivered q
sound lecture to the boys on the ethics Of
humanity, which was concluded with an APP
peal for help for the Jacksonville sufferers.
Now, boys" said Pop. " save your candy
money. you cigarette money. and, if needs
be, your lunch money, from now until Mon
day morning: Then hand it to me. I'll send
it South, and God will bless YOU"
The boys all promised to deny themselves
their pleasures; but. alas! when Monday
morning arrived Pops car was deserted, and
the old gentleman has since lost all faith in
the power of ~oratory.

this gentleman last Tuesday. He was stand

ter: "Roasta c~hestnutta."
In less than three minutes after he had
located he was surrounded by n half-dozen

During q temporary lull in trade he said
that he was the first man in the business this
year, The nuts, he said, came from the
