The Mysterious whistler.

A whistle will not always stop one of
the electric cars at the head of Preble
street now. The reason is this. The
conductors, always alert to oblige the
prospective passenger, have been ac-
customed to pull the bell whenever any
one has whistled, and have been rewarded
by the appearance of a putting passenger
running to greet them. But some time
ago it was noticed very often that the
putting passenger did not appear. A small
boys trick, no doubt; and the conductor
resolved to lay low for the audacious
urchin. But he was very elusive
urchin, and seemed to be around among
the house tops fully as often as on the
street. Finally the scamp was discovered,
short and two-legged; and not an urchin
but parrot, saucily whistling in cage
in one of the uppermost windows of the
Preble house The bird thinks he has
as good right as any one to whistle at
the cars, and is exercising it frequently.

The FLOYD Case.

In the Municipal court yesterday
morning Joseph Floyd was bound over
to the grand jury on charge of cheating
by false pretences. This is the case
mentioned in yesterdays PRESS, where
Mr.. Floyd bought team of Mr.. Ling and
gave as security mortgage that in
cluded the property and also an organ
which belonged to his wife. Floyd
claimed that he had tried after paving
$26 to Ling, to get from him a statement
of what he owed him, SO that he could
pay him. Mr.. Ling states that Floyd
never made any such attempt; that he.
Floyd, bought the team on the install
ment plan in the spring, used it all sum-
mer, paid only $26, and returned it in the
fall to him. Mr.. Ling says Floyd never
tried to find out what he owed him.
but simply returned the team, and has
never expressed a willingness to make
any settlement. The organ was inserted
in the usual form of chattel mortgage
by Floyd, and it was stated there that he
bought it from the Smith company. The
organ. Floyd now claims, belongs to
his wife.
