rrs. Robinson amos herself thIs morn.

Mrs. Robinson finds herself this morn
ing?n
The parlor wasn't quite as tidy as 1t
used to be, and if you called in the morn
ingyou would see lying on table, with
anold newspaper carelessly thrown over
them, two or three particularly small
caps, rather larger than ii they had been
made Cor moderate sized doll, with
small piece of lace, in the shape OF
horse shoe, let in behind; or perhaps
white robe, not very large in circumfer-
ence, but very much out OF proportion
In point of length, with little tucker
round the top, and frill round the bot
tom; and once when we called we saw
long white roller, with a kind OF blue
margin down each side, the probaoe
use sof which we were at loss
to conjecture Then we fancied that
Mr.. Dawson, the surgeon, &c, who DIS
plays a large lamp with different color
in every pane Of glass, at the corner OF
the row, began to be knocked up al
night oftener than be used TO be, ana
once we were very much alarmed cy
hearing q hackney-coach stop at Mrs.
Robinson's door at half-past two o'ciock
in the morning, out Of which there
emerged fat old woman in a cloak and
nightcGp, with a bundle in. one hand
and a pair Of pattens in the other, who
looked as if she had been suddenly
knocked up out of bed for some special
purpose.
When we got up this morning we saw
that the knocker was tied up in an old
white kid glove, and we, in our inno-
cerce I'VE were in state OF bachelor
ship them, wondered what on earth II
all meant, until we heard the eldest
Miss Willis, IN propriG persona, say,
with great dignity, in answer to the
next inquiry. my compliments, and
Mrs. Robinson's doing as well as can
be expected, and the little girl thrives
wonderfully" And then in common
with the rest OF the row, our curiosity
was satisfied and we began to wonder
il had never occurred to US what the
matter was before.

1t was on June Is that Alexander the
Great had his noted conversation with
Diogenes. They were both at base

grand stand and DiogeneS on the bleach

"Hollo, Gene" shouted the King, who
was always trying to get solid with lit

Diogenes cooliy watched the descent
OF foul tip before he replied.
"How are you, Sandy, he answered
at length, with scant courtesy.
Alexander was not easily TO be dis
couraged, however, and, descending
from the grand stand, walked over to
where DogeneS was sitting and took his
stand right in front Of the philosopher.
What can l do for you?" inquired
the conlueror, solicitously.
DiogeneS deigned no direct reply.
"Play ball" he yelled, evasively.
Cant give you a sewer contract or

DiogeneS was silent.

"Well, them" he snarled. get out Of

MARTINS FERRY.

1t seems as if there is just the same
bad feeling existing between Council
and the Electric Light Trustees as
there was between Council and the
Water Board. This feeling is getting
to be so bitter that there is some talk
Of the trustees getting out an injunc-
tion restraining Council from doing
anything towards erecting or building
the plant. A good bit OF this state OF
affairs is attributed to outside influence,
so we are informed. Now il looks as II
the right way TO treat the public, so
that they may have light, is for these
two bodies TO get together and work to
an early completion of the plant, and
not let this jealousy cause them to get
the matter before the courts and have
the town suffer by it.
An Injunction, which was gotten out
by the property holders on Walnut
street, was served on the City Commits
sioner, restraining him from making a
fill on West Walnut street, near the
Terminal rohd. This work was ordered
done by Council, the railroad failing to
do il, and it was intended TO make the
railroad company pay for it, as their
contract calls for them to do this filing.
There are several damage suits against
the Terminal, and the property holders
thought that the city had no right to
make this fill and throw the city liable,
instead of the company, and the city
having no money to do this work, it was
easy TO enjoin them.

he was offered the democratic nominal

declined, but he took an active part IN

over fifty speeches.
This work gained him state repnta-
