man Gustav Won Buskirk, OF the Sixth Precinct.

court yesterday by Magistrate Zeller There was no
response when the names OF defendant and COM
rIainant were called and the magistrate dismissed
the case. Thus settled case which had been
put over for further examination by Magistrate
Edward Hogan June a. 1865. The papers have
Cor all these years lain apparently untouched in a
record case in the court room
Chief Clerk Lewis. Of the Tombs police court, was
examining the box containing cases set down for
disposition yesterday when TO his surprise he pulled
out an intoxication slip which read: June H. 1863
The case Of Justus Smith, charged by Gustav Won
Buskirk a policeman of the Sixth Precinct, with
intoxication." To this the poceman's was
signed The paper was Endorsed by Edward Hogan,
City Magistrate of the First District Police Court"
Near the word Bond" had been written "Ex-, %

Mr.. Lewis took the paper to Magistrate Zeller,
who decided to call the case for final disposition
The case Of Gustav Won Buskirk against Smith
Is called announced Lewis. Let the complainant
and the defendant come forth"
There was a pause in the proceedings and then
Court Officer Charles Cooke went to the desk and
told the magistrate that he used know Policeman
Won Buskirk. but that he had been dead several
years The case then dismissed.
Justice Hogan asked last evening about the
case. but declared that he could remember it,
Becoming reminiscent he said:
In 1855 city tul of soldiers they often
drank more than was good for them and landed
in the hands of the police Usually these arrests
were made for safe keeping, when they came up
we discharged the prisoners. Where arrest was
resisted often held the prisoner further ex-

think that the of Justus Smith was such a
one, and Smith was soldier We used TO be very
basy in the early morning with intoxication and
disorderly and the clerk made out the dis

JAPANESE FERN BALL,

Fern balls are loosely woven globes
of twigs filled with moss in which fern
roots are packed away. They may
be hung in the window, but do better
when they have less light Before
hanging it should be thoroughly
soaked in water and sprinkled occa-
siorally to keep it moist. In due
time the ferns begin to appear ali
over the ball, coming through the net
work of twigs and the ball becomes
finally big, fluffy globe of fern
sprays two or three inches in
diameter.
An American way &c handling the
Japanese fern ball after it has been
first wet consists in not suspending
it, where it has to be occasionally
moistened thereafter, hut in placing
it upon the top of suitable tall,
open vessel, as vase of proper
dimensions, filled with water, from
which it draws uniformly the
moisture required for its develop
ment.

The wayside flower, the wild June

The feast of bloom a fragrance set
To lure whoever comes ana goes9
Stunning the road of old regret,
