extended to him. Allen Wightman was
trusted with the reckless, jovial comedy

 Case Ended.

Tho Taking of Tsse,meny In the Great
 Case Ended.
 LONDON, July 26.-The Parnell Commis- sion adjourned until October "A. When the Commission opened yesterday, MT. Hardcastle, the accountant of the National Bank, was called to tho stand. Ho stated that the bank books belonging to the Land League which had been produced in Court covered the whole period of the Leagues existence. The witness could not say that the G75,O0O which was unaccounted for, owing to the absence of the books of the Ladies' League, had been misappropriated
 Solicitor Soames, of the Times counsel, then took the stand, and Mir. Sexton for the Parnellites asked him to state the amount paid by the Times to the witnesses 1t had called In tho case.
 Mir. Soames said that he was unable to state the amount paid within e10,OO0 The sum was very large one, he admitted.
 This concluded the evidence taken in the lengthy case,
 Presiding Justice Sir James Hannen then asked MT. Sexton If he would sum up the case in behalf of the Parnellites. Mir. Sexton said that he could not undertake to do this without first consulting with his colleagues. Sir Henry James, who is to reply for the Times, stated that he was not in position yet to go over the whole case.
 In reply to question from MT. Sexton, Justice Hannen sad that further eviden ce would be called for if the Judges of the Commission considered 1t necessary, but tho reasons therefor must be exceptional. He then announced the Commission ad- journed until October 24.

 BALTIMORE, July 26.-Jake Kilrain, and his faithful Eot.le-holder, Johnny Murphy, started out yesterday to have good time. Both of them drank freely and Murphy was locked up.
 This was the first tinlo that Kilrain has made his appearance in the central part of the city since flushed with hope, he took his departure for Now Orleans four weeks ago.
 He and Murphy visited nearly all the prominent saloons down town during the afternoon and attracted a great deal of at tention. Five hundred gamins followed the pair wherever they went The pugilist and bottle-holder wore somewhat reckless in the use of cash, for they scattered small coin in profusion, to the great delight and profit of the sorambling gamins.
 The friends of the pair, apprehensive of police interference with their freedom, took measures to get them out of harms way Ktrain was hustled to a hotel about 8: 80 o'clock and put to bed, but Murphy continued his sport until the captain of the Central Police District took hand and locked him up.

A GOOD BEAR STORY. <
But Unfortunately It Has Very Sad and
 Unsatisfactory Ending.

But Unfortunately It Has a Very Sad and
 Unsatisfactory Ending.
 Many years ago a New Hampshire boy found very young bear cub near Lake Winnipiseogee, and carried it home with him. It was fed and brought up about the house of the boys father, and became as tame as dog, says the New York Ledger. Every day its youthful captor had to go to a school at some distance, and by degrees the bear became his daily companior. At first the other scholars were shy of the creature's acquaintance. but ere long it be- cametheir regular plaVfellow, and they de- lighted in sharing with it the little store of provisions which they brought for their days sustenance in small bags. After two years of civilization, however, the bear wan dered to the woods, and did not return. Search was made for him, but in valn.
 Four succeeding years passed away, and in the interval changes had occurred about the school alluded to. An old dame had succeeded to the ancient master, and Q new generation of pupils had taken the place of the former ones. One very cold winter day, While the school-mistreSs was busy with he2 humble lessons, boy chanced to leave tbe door half open on his re-entrance, and suddenly large bear walked in. The consternation of the old lady and her boys and girls was unspeakable. Both school
 
 ''abroad," but the bear was in the path, and all that could be done was to fly as far off as possible, and hide behind the benches. But the bear troubled nobody. He walked | quietly up to the fireplace and warmed 1 himself, exhibiting much satisfaction in his countenance during the process. He re- mained thus about a quarter of an hour, and then walked up to tha wall where the provender bags and baskets of the pupils ! were suspended. Standing on his hind feet | he then took hold of these successively, put his paws into them and made free with the bread, fruit and other eatables therein con- | tained. He next tried the school-mistress' desk, where some little provisions usually were; but finding it firmly shut, he went up again to the fire, and after 0 few min utes' stay before it he walked out by the way he came.
 As soon as the school-mistress and her | pupils had courage to move, the alarm was l given to the neighbors. Several young men immediately started after the bear, and as it's track was perfectly visible in the snow, they soon came up with it and killed it. Then it was that, by certain marks upon l it's skin, some of it's pursuers recognized in the poor bear no enemy, but an old friend of their own recent school days. Great regret | was felt for the death of the creature. It was like killing human friend rather thar wild animal.
