 Anticipating St. Patrick's day. To- cal Irishman. at the expense of much time and labor, raised a small bed of shamrock. and on Sunday gave out a few punches to his friends. One little boquet of it found place in the bar of a prominent cafe and all day attracted the admiration of the hosts of people whose most intimate acquaintance heretofore with the shamrock had been through the paper imitation. Toward evening, as the place was crowded. a we'll dressed young man came in and ordered his drink. While he waited he pulled to pieces the shamrock boquet and calmly munched the leaves.

 After long chase through alleys. coal yards and junk yards Bass was caught and arrested on a charge of assault with intent to murder and carrying con cealed weapons. Near where he was caught pistol still hot was found, every chamber of which was empty.
 The negro declares he is innocent of the charge, although when caught was badly winded as if he had been running.
