A case Of rewarded charity came to
our notice this week. A few weeks
ago q young German came to Middle.
burgh and applied to Prof. Billhart
for assistance. The young man in-
troduced himself as a fresco painter,
out of work and out OF funds. He was
an honest-appearing, intelligent-
looking young fellow and Mr.. Bill
hart advanced him enough money to
pay his way to Sliamokin. He had
heard nothing Of him until Tuesday
when. the young stranger re-appeared-
but in different garb and under diff
ferent circumstances. He reported
that he had made his way to Shame
kin where he had been recommended
to the kind consideration OF Mai.
Hamilton, lessee Of Thomas Gelles-
pies Hotel. The young man stated
his circumstances to the Major and
he referred him to the owner OF the
House, who requested the young
German to make design for fresco-
ing one of the rooms, which he did
and 1t was so strikingly appropriate
that he at once employed him to fres
90 every room in the House-a Job
which brought him $500 in solid cash
oyer and above all expenses. He
came here Tuesday, paid back the
borrowed money with interest and
gave the Professor an old>fashioned
"gesellegkeit."
