Q claim for indemnity can Justly be made
unless it shall be made to appear that
the public authorities charged with the

at the unlawful act, or of having timely
notice OF the threatened danger have
been guilty of such gross negligence in
the taking OF necessary precautions as
to amount to connivance.
IF. therefore, it should appear that
among those killed by the mob at New
Orleans there were some Italian sub
jects who were resident or domiciled in
that city, agreeable to our treaty with
Italy, and not in violation of our immi-
grafton laws, and who were abiding in
the peace of the United States and Obey-
ing the laws thereof, and of the state of
Louisiana, and that the public officers
charged with the duty of protecting
life and property in that city
cOnnived at the work of the mob or
upon proper notice or information of
the threatened danger, failed to take
any steps for the preservation Of the
public peace, and afterwards to bring
the guilty to trial, the president would,
under such circumstances, feel
that case was established

A Slight InaeCuracy,

One of the old lake captains, who set
sail for the unknown port this summer,
sent word to many of his friends few
days before he died to come and see him,
and among his callers was one who said:
Captain. there is one little matter I
wanted to SPEAK to you about before you

Yes"
"Since you retired from active life you
have had great deal of time on your
hands.
@Yes."
And you have told a great many
stories"
"Yes.'
@Some of which were not absolutely
true. You have had to lie more or less
to keep your place in the ranks.
"Whati Have ever lied?" asked the
old veteran IN the greatest aStonIsn.

"rm afraid you have. Indeed, 1 am
sure you have, and hope you have re-
pented of this sin along with others"
4When did ever lie?"
@Well, when you said you fell over
board in Lake Huron, and swan 81

the correct distance, because there waJ
no way to measure it. What other

when you claimed to have sailed the
schooner Martha across Lake Erie single

"Of course not.

you certainly did, and now ask you
to ease your conscience by confession.

Warming Cold Feet.

More than twenty-five years ago,
while ! was In the Thirty-fifth Massa-
chusetts regiment. strutting around in
Virginia, l was sometimes troubled
with cold feet. At one time while I
was stamping on the ground in the eff
fort to warm my extremities comrade
in the same regiment said to me: If
your feet are cold try this" He raised
his foot from the ground and struck
some light blows with his hand on the
upper part of his leg, just above the
knee. did the same with both legs,
and instantaneously felt flow of
warm blood coursing downward and
the feet became comfortably warm.
The experiment was repeated with
good effect in the comparatively warm
climate OF Virginia, and also with equal
iy good results in the more rugged at
mosphere of New England.-Boston

A bill has been prepared and will be
submitted to the New York state legisla-
ture for the consolidation of New York
city and It's surrounding territory, in
eluding Kings and Richmond counties,
the town of West Chester, part of the
towns of East Chester and Pelham,
Long Island City, the town of Jamaica,
and part of the town of Hampstead,
into one city. The population of the
consolidated city would De about two

to it by an overwhelming majority on
the ground that it wonld gain nothing
by the consolidation but lose its iden-
tity and become simply the eastern
division of New York; and the bill will

clerks in Office work. Each day the clerks al
out blanks stating whether they were tardy
