road is n source of no end of amuse-

One day he came into tho car and
called out in his peculiarly penetrat-

Sit closer on the roight, ladies and
gintlemin, an mex room for the Teddy

A big surly looking man who was
occupying space enough for two said,
sullcnly:

conductor. "Begorry, you niver whit

Of the Fitchburg railroad has resigned. Mr..

The Tailor Got Even.

Some few years before his death,
Poole, the tn l)r, WIS taking II walk
on the west pier, Brighton, looking,
as he always did, beaming specimen
of health, content and success. A
young man, who did not know, per.
haps, that he was IL snob, was also on
the pier with n couple of ladies to
whom he said, as he saw Poole coming ::
"Now, You wouldn't take that good
looking man for tailor, but he is.
He's an impostor. Just listen while l
take him down notch or two. I'll
tell him my coat, which l have just
had from him, doesn't fit"
AS he spoke, Poole approached, and
politely acknowledged the salutntion
of his customer, who, walking up to
him, said: "Here, Poole, now do take
look at me. Does this coat tit?"
Poole took in the situation, for he
was good physiognomist, aud the
countenances of the ladies betrayed
the plot to him.
at certainly does not fit, said he,
and, pulling out a bit OF French
chalk, he procee led literally to mark
and to cross the coat of his would he
queller all over, and then observed,
with the utmost sangfroid and mr.
banity: "Now, il you will kindly
send that coat to my shop the altera-
tions shall be attended to-"

So Antonio ArditO Goes Back to
Prison.
BOSTON, Mass, April 16-In 1879 Joseph
i. Frye, a leather merchant, was murdered
in his home on Joy street by u number of
young Italians. The men were prevailed
upon to plead guilty and were sentenced to
states prison for life. The family of the
murdered man were glad to have this
done to avoid publicity. The papers all say
that Frye was "mysteriously" murdered.
There was no mystery about it. Frye. who
was we'll to do and had fine house. would
gather young boys for immoral purposes.
On the night in question he had gathered u
number of young, ignorant Italian BARRIERS.
They stabbed him for the small amount of
money in his pocket. One by one they
have been pardoncd out. The last to
be released was Antonio ArditO, who was
but sixteen years old when the murder was
committed. He has always been model
prisoner. He was released on the condition
that he leave the country forever, One of
the Frye family furnished the money to 60
He went to Italy, but recently returned and
tried to get more money from the family He
has been taken back to prison to finish his
sentence. He claims that he did not know he
could not return. that he nearly starved to
death in Italy and that in New York, where
he got work, he was driven from "pillar to
post" as his record became known.

himself as being In const ant misery, often COM
PEELED to rise ten times during the night on
account OF weakness Of the bladder. He was
treated by all his home physicians without the
least benefit and finally completely cured In q
few weeks by Alkavis. The testimony Is uu-

Young. of Kent, Ohio. writes that she had tried
six doctors in vain, that she was about to give

promptly cured of kidney disease and restored

he must find the cause of my trouble.
Upon examination, he found there

gave me treatment without any benefit

called on me, and recommended Lydia

WASHINGTON. d. g., April l6-The
supreme court OF the United States has de-
MED the petition for n writ OF certiorari in
the case Of the American Bell Telephone
company vs.. the Western Union Telegraph
company. to compel the circuit court
OF appeals for the first circuit to
certify the case to the supreme
court. The case involves the question
OF royalties claimed from the Bell company
by the Western Union company. and was
originally brought in the circuit court for
the district Of Massachusetts. to secure an
account Of these royalties. II is understood
that about $4,000. 900 is involved. 1t APP
pears that after instituting the suit the
Western Union sought to have it dis
missed. ind after it was dismissed the Bell
company appealed to the circuit court of
appeals, when the decision OF the circuit
court was reversed. The Western Union
company sought to have the case reviewed
by the supreme court. but the opinion just rem
dered denies this petition. This has
the effect of taking the case back to the
circuit court for further proceedings. in ac-
cordance with the decision of the circuit
court Of appeals. The decision is known as
the "Stock Ticker" case.
