AJOKE ON THE MARKET MASTER,

Il.
A few weeks ago MIR. Williams, the market
master, issued a notice which stated that on
and after a certain date no baby carriages
would be allowed within the house of yegeta-
bles and meats. and on Saturday some of the stall
owners conceived the idea OF fixing up a
joke on the old gentleman i'll consequence; so
borrowing carriage, in his absence, they
placed II conspicuOusly in one Of the market
paths, hrst rigging up q dummy that
looked among rufies and tucks like many a
baby that has been in the market. When Mr..
Williams came in he fused and fumed for a
few minutes and then kept steady lookout for
the mother OF the quiet intruder.
After waiting for two hours and a half and
the closing hour arriving the market master
lost all patience and determined to turn the
carriage, baby and all, over to the police.
So allowing himself to be used a. the motive
power the carriage went slowly out of the big
door But OF course no policemen were in
sight and for several squares the market
master was halloed at and guyed
Finally an officer was found, and with an
irritable remark the thing was turned over to
him. Then Mr.. Williams thought he would like to
take good peep at the apparent infant, and,
pulling aside the covering. &C., bent down.
One look was enough to make him disRusted
with himself. as the infant on clOse exafhina.
ton proved to be the most unnatural thing inn
aginable. Today he has found no rest.
