THE GROCER'S CLERK:
The Story of His Aunt Louisa's Legacy

The Story of His Aunt Louisa's Legacy.
am clerk in a country store, and
sometimes | wish I'd been a martyr in
those days when they stretched people
on beds of spikes or roasted them on a
gridiron. Then l think | could have
taken little comfort in life.
This is the way of it: am behind the
counter on the side where we keep prints,
and there trots up to the opposite side,
where we keep llannels, customer nei-
Their young nor beautiful; hurry around
and cross, and she asks for caicoes.
Then / turn her about and make my
way back, and pull down half dozen
pieces, but she just gazes at the shelves
and says she'd like to look at the under
piece on the top shelf. l climb up, at
the risk of breaking my neck, and get
out the under piece, and she concludes
'tisn't what she thought it was. Then
she says she'd like to look 'at that
stripe" | blunder on to every other
stripe before get her. particular stripe.
Then she says she wants little figure,
and get all the little figures out for
her. She wants to know how much it
is yard. / tell her six cents, and she
says she can get better in Springfield
for five, and she looks at me suspicious
ly, as if was cheating youth. She
wants to know if it'll wash. and l say,
81 presume so; most calico does wash"
and she looks at me Indignantly, rs if
l was saucy youth. Then she asks me
if we take eggs, and say we do, and
we pay % cents; and she says they're
paying 80 at the other store; and off she
goes, and l put up the prints, and am
down at the farther end of the room
turning fragments out of cracker bar
rel, when back she comes and wants
samples.
We keep the post-office, and by the
time get back to my cracker barrel in
comes man who wants to know if he
hasn't letter. He never had letter
in his life, and he knows it, and know
it; but it is one of those facts that both
parties ignore, and / 90 and look, and
give him the consoling assurance that
he hasn't any, and he departs in peace
of mind.
Then there is a lady who wants to
match a COMPOUNDED piece of silk braid,
drab bordering on the lilac. 1t takes
me five minutes to find one box of silk
braids, and five more to find we haven't
drab bordering on the lilac. Then she
wants sewing silk of the same shade,
and l hunt through all the sewing silks.

IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENTS.
The Controversy Between Bishop Phelai
and Deposed Mother Superior.

Inc controversy IteUWeeh DishOP
and a Deposed Mother Superior.
Pittsburg Pa, Aug 2S.-Several new
and important developments in the con-
trovcrsy between Sister Marie Alphonsc,
the deposcd Mother Superioress of the
Ursuline Academy, and her adhcrents on
ethe ono side and Bishop Plielan, the head
of the Roman Catholic Church Of the
lRittsburg diocease, and the present board
of managers of the Ursuline Academy on
the other came out in the hearing before
Judge Stowe yesterday. 1he hearing
was on the bill filed by rlaintiff asking
for an Injunction to restrain the defend
ants from Interfering with the conduct
OF the academy.
Sister Marie Alphonsc dcposed that
she and the four sisters suspended by
Sister Gertrude were willing to accept
the $50, 900 decreed by the Pope in set
element of the case, but by misrepre-
sentation to the Holy Father the amount
was reduced to $4,000 and they de-
clined to accept it as compensation
for Their interest in the school. AT the
conclusion of the reading of the argu-
ments Judge Stone said that If the mat
ter stood as il did at the time the bill
was filed, there would he no doubt, i'll
his mind as to the right of the UrSullnc
sisters to be let alone. The only ques-
tion to be decided was the legality of the
election held on Aug. 4, at which civil
officers for the Institution had been
chosen. The decision Will be awaited
with interest.
