One dag = man rushed into police
headquarters much excited. He was
deaf and dumb. He seemed almost
p-ostrated with terror. After they had
calmed him n little, he explained that
he had been robbed Of four thousand
dollars by some men, who had thrown
him down and nearly cholzed him 70
death. The inspector had a searching
examination made, and after day or
two proved cOnclusively by the mans
friends that he had not been robbed,
and that he was not even deaf and
dumb. The inspector was not pleased
at having this sort of a trick played
upon him. So he sat the man down IN

years. He said: Il am much troubled
with large steamboats, plowing up and
down near my house IT night. They
make a great whistlins and blowing.

Captain Reilly supposed the man
lived near the water front, and said:
"Whcre Is your home?'
Il live on Seventeenth street,

and down Seventeenth street Il Is
very annoying"
1T must be" said Captain Reilly.
.'I'll have it stopped"
The next day he sent around and told
the man that he had had the steamboats,
stopped. \ few days afterward the
man called and thanked him. They
have stopped entirely said he, and l
can never repay you.'

officer. .'Seventeenth- street Is not q

great spirit and originality One day
she took fancy to make her will, and
in it bequeathed all her property to
one OF her teachers He was impru-

and was in consequence, dismissed US

The gentleman who then undertook
his duties did so with great zeal, and
had reason to find one, at least, OF
his corrections productive OF good.
He CHANGED to enter the room when
the princess was reviling one Of her
attendant ladies, in great wrath, and
after giving her a lecture on hasty
speech, he presented her with q book
on the subject.

more furious, and using language even
more violent.
