The I,evy court.

This mornings session OF the Levy
Court convened at 10 o'clock with PrdA-
ident buckingham in the chair. There
was no business transacted during the
flrst hour, and at the end of that
time the constables were called upon
to state why they had not returned, to
the clerk OF the peace, the names OF
all persons doing business In this city,
who have not taken out license as
required by the Five Commission
bill.
Constable Brown, acting as spokes-
man, said that as there was no pro-
vision made In that bill for paying
them for the work, he did not think
they could be called upon to do 1t. He
said that under the old law, the collec-
tors attended TO this work. and were
paid 1917 cents for each name returned,
but under the now law there was no
provision made for their payment.
Mr.. Grubb said ho thought they
should be paid a reasonable amount for
their work. and President Buckingham
read section OF the law. which pro-
vides that In every case where q person
performs work for the county, and no
provision Is made for the payment, it
shall be the duty OF the Levy Court to
fix the amount, The further consider
alton of the matter was deferred until
this afternoon, md at IL. 40 o'clock the
court adjourned until this safternoon, to
give the members an opportunity TO

lie was followed by Mr.. Bird, who
cited number Of authorities to show
that where an injury happened to a
servant, through the negligence OF
another servant, even though he held

porution was not responsible. He also
contended that in this case the plain
Till was not entitled t5 amy damages,

MIR. Bird spoke until o'clock, and
contcnded that as tho plaintiff was
guilty OF contributory negligence, ht
WINS not entitled to any damages. He

APastor serenaded.

The neighborhood of the Asbury M.
Z. parsonage was filled withIdeightfu
melody last night, and everybody en-
joyed the concert rendered. The rea-
son was, Hyatts excellent band had
visited the Asbnry parsonage to sere-
made the Rev. J. ID. Hanna. The band
to the surprise of the preacher and his
family arrived at about 10 o'clock, but
as Mr.. Phillips was very Ill just oppo-
site, they did not play until informed
by his wife, that the music would not
injure him. Then for an hour the band
played most beautiful music. Mr.. Han
ma appeared at the door after two selec.
tlons had been rendered, and spoke hu-
mourously on the effects OF the music.
He regretted hisinahility to have tho
members of the band partako OF the
hospitality Of the parsonage, but pro-
missed the young members that II they
visited the parsonage more privately
some time, accompanied by tho lady of
their choice, he would tic them with a
knot unbreakable, and, II they would
accept the service. he would do 1t for
nothing. The members will, no doubt,
benr this in mind, and the pastors wife
will he surprised II half dozen or more
take advantage OF tho offer. At about
IL O'Clock the music ceased, leaving the
parson and his family most apprecia-
tive of the unexpected kindness, and to
have strains of music follow them

Tho yyanderlng of a Cat.

Some four months ago, family re-
siding In the western part OF tho city
lost a Maltese cat, which, as 1t had been
q pet, they were greatly attached to.
As family residing In tho vicinity
who had often asked for tho cat had
removed to point above Reading, Pa.
they came to the conclusion when the
cat disappeared that they had taken 1t,
and gave 1t up for lost. Over three
had elapsed, when one morn
ing not long ago, the poor cat, when
the back door was opened. came
crawling in, so thin and gnunt that
his owner scarcely recognized him.
Since then 1t has been learned that this
family did not take the cat away and
shows that, guided by some peculiar
Instinct, he must have Travelled nearly
one hundred miles to reach his old
home,
