old story and exposed him. He was
pro- .ly arrested, tried, and sent to the
penitentiary a second time.
The most fragrant case that has come up
for several years was that OF a man dressed
in the garb of sailor who applied for re-
lief, stating that he was member Of a
lodge in Connecticut and wanted suffi-
cient money to pay his railroad fare to a
town in that State where his family was.
A telegram to the lodge he referred to
brough the reply that he was in good
standing, whereupon he was given money
for his passage Three months afterward
he applied second time in another dress
and under another name, asking aid for a
sick (?) Mason in Brooklyn who wanted
TO be sent home to Germany. He was
recognized and his story found to be false.
The Board then prosecuted him in the
Court of Special Sessions, before Judges
German, Powers, Smyth and Murray. He
was convicted and sentenced to years
imprisonment. Among the items of evil
depce produced at the trial werethe con-
tents of his closet at Bowery lodging
house, where papers were found showing
that under different names he had been
member OF two lodges of Odd Fellows,
two Masonic lodges, three lodges of
Knights of Pythias, and two posts Of the
Grand Army of the Republic, besides be-
ing professional repeater at elections,
Government pensioner drawing a pension
under a fraudulent claim, and being an
applicant for a second pension under an
other name. He was reported to the
United States authorities and taken in
hand by them. Among his papers were
also found notes of an elaborate scheme to
swindle the various Orders named in diff
ferent parts of the country by means Of
fraudulent applications for relief.
The duties of the Board of Relief are
sometimes tinged with sadness, as is the
case when it is called upon to care for
persons dying away from home and friends.
A few months ago two Masons from distant
lodges were found i'll and destitute in the
tenement districts. They were taken to
the hospital and carefully nursed, but died
within a few hours of each other, and were
buried in the same grave in the Masonic
plot at Cypress Hills.
The work of the Masonic Board of Re-
lief has not been confined to members of
the Masonic order alone. 1t has been ex-
tended to the widows and daughters of
Masons Not long ago two applications
were received from women who claimed to
be widows of Masons. Investigation
showed that one was as represented: that
during the two years since her husbands
death she had by her own labor supported
herself and two children. She had lost
her position, and all her valuables and
trinkets were in pawn. The Board at
once redeemed her jewelry, gave her
enough money to supply present necessity,
and set about finding her a permanent sit
uation. The story of the other applicant
proved to be false. Her husband was
found living alone in the city, having ep-
arated from his wife on account of her
vicious life. Assistance was refused, and a
statement of the case made to every lodge
represented in the Board and to the Gen
eral Board, which will effectually stop that
bit of imposture.

Then we formed the prettiest tableau of
the evening. A grand court gentleman
brought the Empress some ink. The little
maid covered her gown while she stood in
the center of curious group and scribbled
with spluttering pen the lines.
"Good-byew said she as she handed me
the card and then she gave something
nicer than the other reporters received
for Josephine, Empress of the French,
kissed me.

man we crept silently past the wings where

mysterious little dark door through which

An Absent-MInded Woman.

A certain Lewiston (Me.) woman re-
Gently sat counting some bills TO the
amount OF $50, which she had just taken
out Of her pocket-book. Near at hand
was flower stand, and, noticing some
dead leaves on her plants, she picked
them of and mechanically crumpling
them and tho bills in her hand, thrust
tho whole into tho stove. laid in tho
kindling, turned on kerosene, lighted
the whole and went into another room.
Suddenly searching for her bills to re-
place them in o. wallet she thought of

about as quick time as she ever did any

WHERE THE RLACKBIRDs RoosT.--For
the past few weeks, just about eundowD
every evening, the people OF this Deighbcr-
hood have noticed great hocks of blackbirds
gineing their flight from all directions to
ward Slepberdetown. The objective point
for the birds was ElmTocd Cemetery, 1t The
edge of town, where, among the many trees
of all kinds, they had established regular
roos.ing place. Thousands upon thousands
of birds cougregated 10 the cemetery, and
as they low il Ia great focks they darkel-
ed the sun, and their ceaseless chattering
could be beard great distance. Ihe birds
oaly took q short tina to become great
nuisance. The foliage was Injured, the
tombstones end monuments were bsfouled,
the walks made almost imras 'sbie on ac-
count of the litter, aod the cir became very
impure. The clean, SHADY, inviting spot
was becoming filthy rookery, ard it Waa
decided to drive the birds out. Monday
evening Superintendent Maddox, with a
number of helpers, armed with shotguus,
began war on the hrds. As the guns began
to crack and The birds were disturbed the
uproar became desfenipg, but by the time
a good many had been shot the others had
betn frightened away. Tuesday evening
Toe birds returned ee Usual, but the same
reception awaited them, and they we're soon
put 10 fl ght They have gotten fewer and
fewer each evening, most of them goirg up
to the eff, above town, where they will be
allowed 10 "roost 10 peace" Il is thought
that they will be permanently dislodsed
from the cemetery in few days more
