 They are telling good joke on that genial Bank street jeweler, Merritt w. Hill. It appears, a short time since he went up to the Congregational church to play at an entertainment, and carefully placed his fine overcoat in a closet the church people had arranged for that pur. pose. When he came to go home he was in somewhat of hurry and helped him. self to a convenient coat. ca the way home he thought the coat felt . little tight, but he gave the matter no further thought. A few days later he had the pleasure of visit from Rev Mr Johnson, the affable pastor of the Congregational church. Ar Johnson mildly inquired ii the jeweler knew of any person with the initials, I'M. w." as he had such an 0vercoat in his possession and someone had evidently made trade with him. Mr Hill quickly repaired to the back room and brought out the overcoae which the dominic claimed. Mr Hill acknowledged the corn and apologized handsomely. The boys on the street say they vsald not mind anything about Hhl taking the nvc3ecss, out to think of walking of with the best coat of the orthodox minis ter! It has proved quite an expensive experience for tho popular jeweler, for every time his friends begin to talk ''overcoat," MT Hill has to bring out choice Havana.
