His Roman nose stole beneath her hat;
He snatched kiss in the greatest haste,
Then told story so very pat,

''Te-tel

Then to pay him back she related tale
OF q girl who wore her last winters bonnet
At an Easter crush, with a hideous veil,
While her own was as sweet as q new

AS silent as death and as stern as fate,
And he kicks and jacksonville his daughter

That rash young youth through the garden

So savage and loud is his mirth--"Haw -hawi

Important Decision,

United States District Judge Deadly
at Portland last Monday permitted the
landing of two Chinese women from the
steamer Granholm on testimony that one
was the wife and the other the daughter
of Chinese merchant. The court held
that the wife of Chinese merchant en-
gagged in business in this country should
be permitted to land without producing
the certificate required by the statute in
the case of all Cinnamon. This is an
important point, as Justice Field, of the
United States supreme court, held that
all Cinnamon generally should produce
the certificate issued to them by the
Chinese empire or other governments to
which they may be subjects, before be-
ing allowed to land. Judge Field
covered the point in general way, but
Judge Deady's order is very specific.
