msine Died.o

Not long since the notice Court ad- journed sine die" was posted on the door of the supreme court in Brooklyn. Some gentleman with an artistic and highly trained sense of humor added a Id" to the word "die" and went on his way rejoicing. Next day a person who makes practice of haunting the public buildings in Brooklyn and pro fesses acquaintance with every we'll known man in the vicinity dropped into the clerek's office
 See here," he said, .'when did Sine pass in his checks?"
 What's that?" demanded the aston ished clerk.
 ssWhen did Sine die? l see the courts are closed on account of it.
 "0h," said the clerk, pulling himself together, ''he died yesterday. Did you know him? ?"
 ''Know him? I should say I did. Knew his father before him. Too bad ain't it?"
 And sine's bereaved friend passed out with his burden of sorrow.-Law Notes.

My experience is that almost all the old soldiers want to be sure of receiving something substantial for their money.
 "Of course, the general rule is that pension money is put to good use in a thousand different ways. I am only tell ing you of some of the oddities. Over in Pennsylvania there is pensioner who is crazy only in the pension season. When he draws his money he'll decorate him. self with all the feathers from old n1il- linery and the barnyard, ribbons and rags and colored paper, and then go around the streets giving small change to the school children until every dollar is gone.

HILLHOUSE VS. BETTS.

New Haven Boys to Play Ball in Stam-
 ford To-Day.
 Yesterdays Stamford Advocate says of the Hillhouse high school-Betts acad- emy game for that city to-day:
 A difficult problem will confront Betts academy tomorrow afternoon in the shape of Hillhouse high school of New Haven. If the New Haven boys are up to their usual standard they will give Betts the warmest time they have had yet. If Betts can hold Hillhouse down it will show that the nine is playing in first-class shape, while if the academy nine should win it can then be reasona- bly certain of winning the majority of games it ha sarranged. Hillhouse is al- ways represented by one of the strong est mines in the state. There are sever al hundred boys to pick from, and they have all the practice they desire, so it is only natural that a good nine would be the result At all events there should be good game tomorrow.
