Found Wanting.

If a servant obeys orders as far as he
can, and does his work correctly as far
as he goes, what more can be expect
ed? And yet the result is not always
satisfactory, even to reasonable en-
ployers.
The Boston Courier has story of a
woman who owns 8 very large and
handsome dog, of which she is very
fond, and perhaps little proud. The
other day she sent him out to the
stable to be weighed, confding the op-
Grafton to a new servant, who looked
upon the powerful animal with con-
siderable awe, and apparently with
some real affection.
The man was gone surprisingly
long time, but at last reappeared and
announced that the dog weighed 12O
pounds.
''One hundred and twenty pounds!' y
repeated the lady. Are you sure you
weighed him right? He must weigh
more than that"
''Oh yes, marin; sure an | weighed

asked, az the sympathetic tears filed

''Oh, it is a beautiful place, the

West Hoboken's Council Neeting-A
Pretty Wedding.
The West Hoboken Board of Council
met Wednesday evening. A communion
ton from Clerk McDermott, of Hoboken,
was received, stating that the city would
hold the Board to their contract in regard
to the lighting of Fourteenth street.
The property owners on Ann street
have been waiting until their patience
was exhausted for Contractor Egan to
commence work on their sewer, and they
complained to the Board last evening.
Mr.. Egan appeared and said that he
would break ground next Monday.
John O'Connor and other property
owners on Spring street petitioned the
Board to lay a fifteen inch pipe sewer
past their dwellings. Their desire will
probably be complied with. Recent legis-
lation has empowered the Board to in
crease the police force. The Police Com
mittee has the matter under consideration
and from their report last evening, it APP
pears that some ambitious youths will
soon don h blue.
Poormaster Kiem's report was declared
correct. The bondsmen of ex-Collector
Anderson met the Council on Tuesday
evening and paid the town $1,000. Within
thirty days they promised to pay the re-
| naming 81 ,432, and that will be the final
payment. The sum of $3.50 was ordered
paid to the different Street Commission
ers, and other claims amounting to $500
were passed.

at the block. The terms of purchase were

tioneer's fee, and forty per cent in cash on
the delivery of the deed on June 9th
next. The titles to the property were
guaranteed by the New Jersey Title
Guarantee and Trust Company at the ex-
pense OF the seller.
Before proceeding to a sale of the real
estate}ifty-two shares of stock of the Ber-
gen Hall Association were offered for sale
by the. executors of the late Alexander
Bonnell. The par value of the stock is $50
per share, and it was announced at the
sale that ten per cent. dividends have
been paid on it for several years. The
ffty-two shares referred to were sold to
William G.. Bumsted at $25 a share, or o
total Of 81, 300, thus realizing one-half only
of its par value. This would seem TO pc q
very lucky investment for Mr.. Bumsted.

The youthful heir to a Walnut
Hills ancestral establishment is of an
inuuiring turn of mind, and directs
his attention specially to the elucida-
ton of religious problems. Last week
he heard a Sunday school address on
1.-THE Prodigal Son." Now. this
Biblical story has, of course, been
very severely criticised by commenta-
tors. Some people have even gone so
far as to say that no better illustra-
ton can be found of the manner in
which false and specious reasoning
may be employed to make wrong seem
right. However this may be, few
readers of the pretty tale can help
feeling sorry for the good brother who,
having done his level best always, be-
came indignant when he saw the fat
ted calf killed for the good-for-nothing
of the household. just what the
small boy referred to above thought of
the address his father was curious to
learn. and so he said to him that night
at supper:-'My son, tell me which of
the characters in the parable of the

twelve miles north of the city, which
marks the grave of the author of that
famous ballad, Darling Nellie Gray"
A visitor to the spot learns from the
inscription on the stone that it is the
last resting place of Benjamin Russell
Handy. The seclusion of the tomb,
the neglect shown it by all save a few
relatives and the general Ignorance OF
its location form another illustration
of the forgetfulness of the human
race. Notwithstanding the grave .pt
the author of Darling Nellie Gray
is forgotten and neglected, his own
beautiful ballad has s~culptured ont
for him a monument of memory
which will endure the changes OF
centuries to come.
