was comfortably seated. He did not notice
long, fat package lying on the opposite
seat. covered with a travelling rug, and a
newspaper carelessly thrown over it. and
he probably would have left the compart-
ment oblivious OF its existence had not a
pair of sweet. pretty eyes peeped over the
top and in Il cautious tone the owner of

The artful mother confusedly explained
that her child was only three and entitled

The New York Herald says that when
the late Judge Bradley took his seat on
the bench in 1870 by appointment of
President Grant the great constitutional
questions growing out of the war and the
new amendments were just beginning to
loom up. Justice Bradley's intellectual
Vigor and legal grasp brought him to the
front in the consideration of these novel
ana dlncuit issues. On many of them
he voiced the Judgment of the court in
opinions marked by force, clearness and
a deep insight into constitutional princi.
pies. He has been criticised for his ar
ton in the legal tender case and notably
his vote in the electoral commission in
1876. On these points opinions will
differ. That his services on the highest
bench Of the nation during the nearly %
years he sat there are of incslculsble
value will hardly be questioned. OF the
Judges who constituted the court when
he became member but one (Field) re
mains. With this exception and that OF
Harlan, whose accession dates back TO
1877. all have been appointed within 10
years. II is virtually a new court enter,
ing upon new era.

II Causes Much Loss of Portable Proper
ty, Especially Umbrellas.
The other morning gentleman sat
in an elevated car reading his news
paper as he went down to business. A
pretty brown-eyed stenographer sat
next to him. The car was as crowded
as usual. The young lady had hand
some umbrella which supported its own
DIGNITY nrainst the seat. For little
while-ther the gentleman with the
paper blindly reached over and placed
the umbrella between his knees. The
brown.eyed stenographer regarded this
movement with establishment, not to
say dismay. Several others were very
much amused, says the New York
Herald.
The impulse of the brown eyed TO
fall upon the newspaper reader at once
and wrest her property from his
felonious grasp gave way to the pre-
va;linr sense of the ludicrous. She
noted that he was reading an editorial
on the spcakcrship. 1t was absent
mindcdness. But she had lost her last
umbrella from the absent mindedness
| OF the man VINO ndu tdhCh ~ iiNAA S''
hall rack. There is altogether TOO
1 much method in this absent minded
business, she thought. 1t is especially
oyerworked with regard to umbrellas.
1t always operates in favor OF good
umbrellas, too, and here was new
silk. When this man had finished the
article on the speakership he threw his
left leg over his right knee and care
fully imprisoned her umbrella. At the
same time he discovered her attention.
She regarded him fixedly with her brown
eyes and said:
az beg pardon, sir; you have my um'
brclla."
The man started as if struck with
club. And it was rather broad hint
He looked, he saw, he blushed, he
stammered, he handed it over to its
fair owner. He was so overcome with
the sense of his ridiculous position
that he got out at the next station. The
pretty brown-eyed stcnographer smiled
all the way TO Cortland street, but she
never again relaxed hold on her um
brella.
