Courage in Life.

Life is not entirely made up of great
evils or heavy trials, but the perpet-
ual recurrence of petty evils and
small trials in the ordinary and APP
pointed exercise of the Christian
graces. TO bear with the faillngs OF
those about us-with tn .ir infrmities,
their bad Judgment, their ill-breeding,
their perverse tempcrs, to endure
neglect when we feel deserved atten-
ton, and ingratitude when we ex-
pected thanks; to bear with the COM
pany of disagreeable people whom
Providence has placed in our way.
and whom he has provided or Iur-
posed for the trial of our virtue
these are best exercises of patience
and self-denial. and the better because
not chosen by ourselves. L bear
with veXation in business; with disap-
pOintment in our expectations; with
interruptions OF our retirement; with
folly, intrusion. disturbance-in short,
with whatever opposes our will, con-
tradicts our humor-this habitual &C.
quiescence appears TO be more Of the
essence of self-denial than any little
rigors of our own imposing. These
constant, inevitable, but inferior evils
properly improved. furnish Il gooG
moral discipline, and might, in the
days OF ignorance, have superseded
penance.-Chicago Juvenile.

Polluted Water in Bridgeport.

After thorough investigation by a chemist and the board of health, several wells from which drinking water has been obtained in East Bridgeport have condemned as contaminated sufficiently to endanger life. The amount of dry residuum or poison obtained from the evaporation of one gallon of Water taken from one of these wells weighed "A. O1 grains. A warning has been issued by the board to the people not to drink from any well before the water has been tested. The recent death of several resi- dents in the vicinity of these wells from typhoid fever aroused the suspicious of the health board, consequently the in Vestigation.

THE SHONINGER FIRM WIN.
A Firm Not Bound by Contracts Whic1
 They Did Not RatifY.

Firm Not Bound by Contracts Which
 They Did Not Ratify.
 The case of B. Shoninger & Go vs F. O. Peabody & Co of this city has been decided in favor of the plaintiffs. It was an action to recover a piano winch had been sold by Henry R. Day, former ly the local agent for Shoninger & Go. The defense was that the agent ill selling the piano had agreed to take part pay in commissions to be earned. and that the Shoninger x Co knew this.
 The judge rendered a verdict in favor of the Shoninger Go, as follows:
 ''In an action to recover for piano it appears that plaintiffs agent who sold the piano agreed to take part payment in commission to be earned by defend ants as broker of the agent. Plaintiffs were not bound by such payment where they did not know or ratify the contract. The fact that plaintiffs continue to pros ecute their suit after they had knowl- edge of the testimony of their agent, who had abScOnded, that part payment was to be made in cOfnmis- sions, but which was denied by defend ant, is not sufficient to charge them with actual knowledge of the terms of the sale and they did not thereby ratify it. In such case it is not necessary to tender the amount actually paid in cash and bring an action in replevin for the piano.
 This decision is valuable and bears largely on the legal position of firms whose agents constantly make sales with conditions of which the firm is | ignorant at the time."

oven continued for years in the vicinity of
Philadelphia, every suggestion of a clew
was run out. At public meetings people
were appealed to submit to search of their
residences, and men were sent out to make
a house-to-house search. The civilized and
uncivilized world was flooded with pho
tonraphs of the golden haired boy. It
was a case that especially appealed to the
sympathy of womankind and long after the
men had accepted the theory that Mosher
and Douglass had thrown the boy into the
North river while escaping from Saperin-
tendeDt Walling's officers and that he was
drowned, the women kept up the agitation
and insisted on running out every clue. While
the body of the boy found in the North
river shortly after the chase of the burglars
was never positively identified by Mr.. Ross
as that of his lost boy the detectives
claimed to have received positive ance
that 1t was Charley Ross.
One curious incident of Westervelt's part
of the case was the fact that he was prom
ised a position on the New York police force
if he would tell what he knew of tine abduc-
ton. He gave sufficient information to
justify the belief that he did know of the
whereabouts of the boy, but constantly de-
clared that be would say nothing until his
appointment was made out. This never
came, and he was sent to prison.
Once while his devoted wife was urging
him to tell What he knew after the incident

"Why?" his wife asked.
Because he is beyond REACH" he replied,
sullenly.

tive Miller.
Because he is beyond life," said Wester-
velt.
Since the active police search for the lost
boy ceased bogus Charley Roses have
turned up IN all parts of the civilized world,
end Christian K. Ross has run almost in
numerable of these false clues. He has
spent thousands of dollars in
going to see these boys who nave
claimed to be his long lost son,
only to meet one disappointment after an
other. Even to this day Mr.. Ross receives
letters from police officials and young men
claiming to have discovered or to be the
lost boy.
MIR. Ross, who was a prosperous mer-
chhnt at the time of Charlev's abduction.
spent his entire fortune in the search for
tie boy. He was appointed port warden
years ago, and has been reappointed by
each succeeding governor.
