A Troublesome Likeness.
From the London STANDARD.

1t is said that no two blades Of grass resemble
each other, but occasionally two people are to
be found so extremely alike that very regret
table mistakes ensue. A case in point is that
of q young Frenchman named Tquet, who was
sentenced at Paris police court to one months
imprisonment for defrauding several persons
He earnestly protested that he was innocent,
and that he was the victim Of some mistake;
but his accusers positively swore to his iden-
tity and he was condemned. It CHANGED, how
ever, fortunately for him, that on the following
day another young man, named Fillateau, was
brought up on similar charge, and at once
admitted his guilt. This delinquent presented
so wonderful q resemblance TO Tquet that the
magistrate, perplexed, remanded the case for q
week, and sent for the imprisoned man TO con-
front him with his second self and with his
accusers. The latter in the presence Of the
two young men were entirely taken aback, one
Of them, however, frankly admitting his mis-
take, and stating that Il was Fillateau. not
Tiquet, who had robbed him-an assertion which
the former confirmed. The upshot Is that
Fillateau has been sent 10 prison for six months,
and an appeal has been lodged with the court
that condemned Tiquet TO get him out Of jail.

Senator Evarts' Bet.

SonotOf EVorC6 BET.
From the New York Graphic
Senator William n. Evsrts has too dignifed a
regard for the law to violate the statute against
betting. Nevertheless he will get three new
hats Immediately after the election, unless his
prophetic judgment is at fault Mr. Evarts is
an ardent republican in politics, Of course, but
when he comes to deal with figures, past pres
ent and future, he doesn't count his partisanism
in. He met Herman Oelrichs, the youngest and
newest member Of the democratic national
committee, and said to him: Il am glad to see
that you have gone into politics. Herman, but
/ am sorry to see that you have gone in on the
wrong side. would rather see you republi-
can"
Well, oelrichs laushingly replied, II like to
start in with the winners"
(Which is what you haven't DONE"
Il think have. Anyhow, I'll bet you new
hat" and he glanced at the Senator's always
obliquely-brushed tile as though the sight Of it
inspired the suggestion. ''that Cleveland will
be elected. We have got New York, Connect
cut, and New Jersey"
Indeed you have not" and Evarts be-
trayed uncommon earnestness. Il won't make
bet, but how many seasons are there in q
winter for silk hats? You know, for you're
something of dude"
well, there'n be what we call a late au-
tumn style, holiday style, and an early spring
style"
THAT makes three. Now. if the democrats
carry New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey,
your three winter hats shall not cost you any
thing. For every one of those states that your
folks don't carry You will have to buy a hat for
yourself"
agreed. And I will serve you the same
that is, contrarily."
That is the way Evarts is backing his opin-
ion.

MISS EtneI SpraSue's stage aspirations.
The New York Herald says: Miss Ethel
Sprague, the daughter of Mrs. Kate Chase
sprague, has decided to eschew the frivolities of
society and climb to the dizzy pinnacle of fame
by way of the dramatic stepladder. Professor
Sargent, who runs the school Of acting attached
to the Lyceum Theater, says that he expects
the young lady and her mamma will arrive
from Washington on Sunday. Miss Ethel will
at once put herself in his hands to learn how
to ''hold the mirror up to nature" according to
the most approved methods. Professor Sar-
gent regards her as promising pupil. He
has grace, vivacity, sympathetic voice, brains
and ambition. It is probable that she will
study under him for two years before making
her debut. Meanwhile Mrs. Sprague, who has
ideas of her own about acting, will take hand
at instructing her also.

A fowl with diphtheria was brought to the

the bird devolved on a lad, aged IA, who was
assisted by his brother, aged 5. On the even

little boy OF 5, who had been poorly for a
day or two. He had enlarged cervicai glands
on the left side, which had come on rapidly.
He was delicate little fellow, with fair hair
and anamic aspect. The fauces were more or
less covered with diphtheritic membrane, the
left tonsii more especially. Under the admin

throat symptoms cleared up and the child made
a good recovery. On the day after this case

cold Hutch" as a Sly, Deep Dog.
From the San Francisco Chronicle
Mr.. Towne, of the Southern Pacific Railroad,
knows him, and tells a story Of old times when
he (Mr. Towne) was freight manager of one Of
the railroads in Chicago. One day Old Hutch
came in and said:
"How many freight cars have you ready for
use?"
Not great number, but"
well, there'n be a whacking lot wanted for
corn before long. I'd advise you to make ar
rangements to have all you can ready"
Mr.. Towne made arrangements and held all
the cars he possibly could at the points con-
venient. In the meantime the object of Hutch's
quiet visit had become known, and all the men
in the Office put their little dibs into a quiet
speculation in corn. In few days the cars were
all wanted, but it was for oats, and the corn
speculation didn't come off. Old Hutch was
too sharp for them.

In q Pool Of CrOcodiles.

From o Paris Letter.
An exciting scene occurred on Monday at
Bone, in Algeria, at the aquarium sort of
itinerant menagerie. The special feature Of
this aquarium consisted in q collection of no
fewer than seventy crocodiles, which were fed
publicly at stated hours by the manager, NJ.
Pernolet. He always wore a pair of Yelling
ton boots, and had a stick with which to beat
off the reptiles when they became too rave
nous and attempted to snap the food out of
his hands. On this occasion he was sitting on
the back Of his largest crocodile, and kept
feeding the rest for about ten minutes, when
all at once, as he turned his head and put out
his hand to the attendant for piece of meat,
one Of the others crawled up to him and bit
him in the stomach.
A shout was raised by the spectators, and
those around the tank tried to beat away the
crocodile, which, notwithstanding M. Perno-
let's blows, began whirling round his prey as
if to tear him to pieces. Unfortunately, in
struggling, M. Pernolet slipped and fell in
the very midst Of the reptiles, which all
rushed on him with fury. A panic took place
among the spectators, who mostly fed. New
ertheless, NJ. Pernolet was rescued. Although
his wounds are serious, his life is not thought
to be in danger.

A Blind ElOpement.

rom Tue ot. LOUIS tloDe-DemOcr3G
curious romance that ended in the mar
riage Of a rich Lake County farmer to blind
widow older than himself has just had sequel
in the mysterious disappearance of the bride.
Thomas Hannah, a hale man of thirty-nine, in
August last came to San Francisco in search of
a wife. He owns large cattle ranch. At the
clearinghouse where he stopped he met a
blind widow Of forty summers named Mrs. Liz
zie Leech. He was smitten with her charms,
and, after few weeks courtship, he married
her.
A brief honeymoon followed, and then Han
nah had to return to his ranch. He left the
bride behind with the understanding that she
was to follow him to his Lake County home as
soon as he had prepared suitable quarters for
her. Scarcely was Hannah gone when blind
man named Martin appeared and asked to see
Mrs. Hannah. He became daily caller and
remained for hours in her room. Finally, one
day last week, after he had called, Mrs. Han
nah went out in the evening and has not since
been seen. She left word that an expressman
would come for her trunks and take them to
Oakland, but no one called. Even her children,
who lived in the same house, have no clue to
her whereabouts, but they think she has eloped
with the blind man who disappeared with her.

it, while the major related some of his English
experiences, and gave his hearers the benefit
Of some new ideas that he imbibed during his
two years stay in the fright little, tight little
island"
I'm the first place" he remarked, after he
had taken of his macintosh and his hat and
settled his portliness into a rocker, "the
Englishmen have a far better idea of America
than We, or rather you, imagine. This is
because q greater portion OF the richer and
more influential ones have seen a good deal of
America, and the others draw their ideas
mostly from these. OF course the Wild West
was revelation to them; it presented phase
OF American life with which they had never
become acquainted. We showed there ON a
grand scale; had scenery fifty feet high all
around the grounds, and gave them our best
stun AL the royalty Of Europe except the pope,
the emperor Of Germany, who was sick, and the
emperor Of Russia, who wasn't. were there.
