a watermelon surprise.

Among the boarders of a hotel not

Jokes are of frequent occurrence. OF late
the proprietor has missed some pastry
and other delicscies hat had been placed
in the cellar for safe keeping, aud last
| Thursday some one connected with the
| hotel decided on a plan to stop the petty
| THE wing, or at least find out who the cul-
prits we're. The plan is an old one. but
| il is n of those kind that grows better
with age. They first procured a water
! melon and then went to the drug store
| and purchased a medicine, of which the
| FIRST letter is '"j.'' This was inserted in
| the watermelon in such a deft manne as
| NOT to arouse the suspicious OF the per-
sons for whom it was intended, and then
| the melon was put away to await further
| developments.
The scheme worked like a charm, as
can be proven by three of the boarders.
They found the hiding place of the lus.
c;ons melon and without further cere-
mouy took their prize to one OF the up
| stairs rooms and proceeded to devour it
in such a way az to make them feel very
sorry for it afterwards. 1t was not long
before the drug began to get in its work
| and it is said that those three poor vic
| tins spent a sleepless night in trying te
overcome the purging effect of the medi
cine they had taken SO unknowingly. II
is said that they have been rather sus'
picious of their ca ting since last Thurs
day. and it will no doubt be a long while
before these young men will be tempted
to eat a hotel watermelon without first
having it examined.
1t is no longer a question of who att
the watermelon, as that could be told bl
the worried look upon the faces of thu
victims, but the question really is
Will they take any more watermslons?

- Suit.

Damage Suit.
The case of Edward A. Clair VS.. the
Salem County Board of F~reeholders was
heard in the Supreme Court. Camden,
before Judge Garrison, OIL Monday. After
hearing the evidence of the plaintiffs,
which showed no negligence on the part
of the defendants. Judge Garrison granted
a non suit on motion of j. Forman Sin
nickson, Esq. counsel of the defendant
Board. The suit was brought by Clair
for injuries alleged to have been received
by falling from a bicycle while riding
from Pitman Grove to Elmer, and owing
to the bad condition of the road, he said,
his wheel careened, and while attempting
80 right the wheel on a bridge near
Hardingville he was thrown off the bridge
into a ditch aud received injuries of a
permanent character. Clair's counsel
commended that if there had been any
guard rails on the bridge the accident
would not have happened. The suit was
for $40 900 damages. This was the first
case of the kind in the State, and it's
result is not likely to encourage bicyclists
to attempt to get damages every time
they fall off their wheels.
