said the captain of the Newfound-

traps had been confiscated by an
English man-o-war for violating the
French shore-line treaty.
An homegrown Englishman," con-
tinued the captain bitterly, 'don't

Albert Mixer of Georgetown, con-
victed at the fall term of the circuit
court of manslaughter, and who has
been out on bond pending decision
of Judge Bullock on motion for a
new trial, and which motion was
argued by attorneys last week and
denied, was called before the bar of
the court on Wednesday morning
for sentence.
His sentence is considered light by
all except Mixer himself. Judge
Bullock sentenced him to pay a fine
of $500 or serve one year in the county
Jail. Mixer talks of appealing his
case to the supreme court. Among
attorneys it is the opinion that the
sentence is exceptionally light.
Mixer was tried last fall for the
murder of Geo. Parker, jr., in fight
at the Georgetown wharf. The jury
returned verdict of manslaughter
with recommendation to the mercy
of the court.
LATER.-Mr. Mixer, on the advice
of his friends, decided to pay the
cash Judgment; this has been done
and he is now free man. He made
affidavit that he had no property
and by so doing threw the costs of
the case on the state.

TO MY LITTLE ILAH.

The stars in heaven look down to see
And act as witness of all l tell thee
Miss Ilah Bond, they willingly say,
Was the most noted traveller on her way.
1t was the month just before May,
And happened to be on the seventeenth day
The graduating recital was on hand,
The music was to be extremely grand.
A large crowd had already assembled,
] could not tell what each object resem bled
Started to go, but something said, stay"
Then Miss Ilah at once began to play.
By the melodous strains we were aroused,
We drank in so freely until caroused.
The strains died away, then came roar,
A clappng and clapping and clapp for more
Then Miss Crawford began to play,
She sent forth strains as through spray.
Her music did exceedingly we'll
But her fate I'm forbidden to tell.
Peradventure Miss Boud came again,
All! the music caused no pain.
All hearts were filled with delight,
You could see each face happy sight.
At the end of the third time
She had no steep and high hill TO climb,
For after so lovely she played 1.-THE Bee"
Who could not this crisis see:
oh, how the three pieces did take!
They were enough the dead to awake.
And as we all sat spell-bound
We imagined her head with laurel crowned.
Nor by any means did they fail
To cause Dr. Roberts thoughts to sail.
So he arose, and upon the stage he sped,
"She is the first violin graduate of Wesley
an" he said.
An unspeakable effect the "serenade" had
Because It touched the emotions for sad;
And while this grand piece was playing,
"She can't be beat" the people were saying
At last Miss Bond and her "bow" were
blended,
Aud by this clear omen we knew the recital
ended.

cises every muscle in the body.
MY father is l06 years of age and
is in perfect health, He can turn a
handspring and do other things
equally as difficult. I expect him to
live from twenty-five to forty years
