IT HAS been settled at Fresno that the responsibility for the escape of Evans rests upon dilatory court reporter, who had neglected to write up his notes of the bandits trial, so that sentence could not be passed.

Acworth, had they been as sreck- less of human life and as careless of the inconvenience they inflicted on in dividuals as American railways have been and to a great extent still are. An Englishman can only stare with astonishment when he sees for the first time trains running through crowded streets of cities such as New York and Chicago.

A Queer Calling.

Perhaps the most curious occupation conceived by woman is that of dinner taster. She is a product of Parisian refinement, as yet unknown in this country. She spends a part of each day in visiting houses and tasting the dishes intended for dinner. She sug- gests improvements, and shows the cook new ways of preparing dishes.
