A Silent Witness.

The drummer had just finished one of
his unequailed stories, and gray haired
man in the smoking compartment with
him looked up as if he could tell story
himself if he were sufficiently urged, says
tho Detroit Free Press.
'Go ahead with yours" suggested one
of those sympathetic kind of men who
know things intuitively.
sit isn't much" said the g1ay.haired
man, modestly.
''That's what the boy said when he was
looking for the definition of the word
'paucity.' But that's all right. Give US
the story" replied the intuitive person.
SWELL" said the man, Strengthening up.
''some years ago when in q certain Sec
ton of the West the sleeping car was yet
a novelty, they had white man on one
of our roads for portss. He was mean
fellow and had way of domineering
around that wasn't pleasant. He was q
coward, though, and was afraid of man
that met him face to face. One night l
got on at the town where I lived and
this porter was uglier than usual, so ugly
in fact that pulled gun on him and at
the muzzle of it chased him up and
down and kicked him from one end of
the car to the other.
There were eight or ten passengers in
the car with me, and by midnight, when
the porter was about half drunk and we
were ready to 60 to bed, they advised me
to watch him, as be would probably try
to get even by some underhand method.
laughed it off and said I wasn't afraid /:
| but just the same while the porter was
doing in seat in the corner l fixed up
dummy to take my lower berth and !
got into vacant upper on the other side
of the car. The next morning about
o'clock l was aroused by some one calling
for the porter, but no porter answered.
"'He's dead drunk out there in the
smoker, said, sticking my head through
the curtains.
"guess I'll 60 and see,' said the in
qulrer, and l got up, too.
1--WE found two or three of our party
ahead of US.
"'Hellow said one to me, did you
have any trouble with the porter in the
nightv
"'Of course not I said, where is he?
"'Don't know; thought maybe you had
thrown him off the car
"But hadn't, and then we began to
look for him, and the conductor appeared
and he couldn't tell US anything, either
Then an idea occurred to me.
await minute l said, and I went
back to the berth the porter had made
down for me, and throwing open the cur
tains found my dummy covered up com.
fortably just as / had left it, but driven
clear through it, right where the heart
ought to be, was knife at least twelve
inches long in the blade.
"Then called in the crowd.
"'There,' l said, do you see the hilt Of
that knife9 I'll give $500 to know
where the porter is.'
1.-THE crowd stood aghast for minute,
but nobody claimed the $500, and that
porter was never heard of again."

The Armory Matter.

The Committee on Grounds and Build
ings will hold a called meeting In the
City Engineers Office this evening at
$50 o'clock to consider the action OF the
officers of the First regiment, who nave
refused to turn over the drill-room OF
the armory to the ladies Of the Holly
wood Memorial Association for the hold
ing of the Memorial Bazaar.
A meeting OF the Committee OF the
Hollywood Memorial Association was held
yesterday afternoon. when the situation
was thoroughly discussed. The ladies'
greatly regret the fact that any discus
sion of the use of the armcry should
have arise.
The bazaar was undertaken by the
ladies' on the earnest solicitation OF the
Soldiers ard Sailors Monument Associa-
ton. and with the unsolicited promise of
the armory as the place for the holding
of the same. The ladies stated that they
much preferred to abandon the enter
prise rather than arouse any further OPP
position. They explored that they have
been the innocent cause Of any I'M
pleasantness.

The Omen River.

The river is now about in its normal
condition. There is very little ice left
10 debar navigation. and i'm a day or
two all boats will be making their regu-
lar trips.
The Wyanoke, which left New York
yesterday, will reach Richmond to-day.
and sail, as usual, this aftesnoon. The
Clyde line will have a steamer here to-
morrow. in all probability. For several
days the Ariel has been undergoing re-
pairs in Norfolk while unable to make
her regular trips. She IS expected here
Sunday.
Freights for the various lines were
being received yesterday. The navigation
people seem highly jublant over the fact
that the ice has left this locality. and
they have reason to chirp merrily over
the situation. Not for years past has the
river been in such an absolutely isolated
condition. Navigation has been crippled
for over a month. and the loss TO the
various steamer lines has been quite
heavy not to speak of the inconvenience
to which they have been subjected.
1t is said that boats in Hampton Roads
have had considerable difficulty, on ac-
count Of the large blocks Of ice that
foated down James river.
