A low ripple of laughter went round

noiQing the most weevils. Joe Halnes
had never come In close contact with
4 colored man before. In dim way
he had always considered the race
humble hearted and downtrodden and
long suffering. For the first day or
two he was surprised when kicked by
the cook, but In time he came to take
It as a matter OF course:
There was one man among the crew
who really knew that Joe Haines was
John Hart He had sailed on one Of
his other ships and seen the great
man abroad. He had also been in
duced to attend bethel meeting one
might and saw him there and heard him
speak with tears in his eyes. This man
led in making life miserable for the
victim. He did more. After a couple
OF weeks the captain got to thinking
things over. 1t was barely possible
! that mistake had been made. He
sent for the cooks assistant, and the
cook gave the man a kick aft. Joe
Haines retold his story. When he men
toned what the cargo consisted of and
the names Of the consignees at VAL
paraiso, with other information that
could only be known In the shipping
Office, the captains hair began to stand
up. He was about to acknowledge to
a mistake when word came aft that
one Of the sailors wanted to be heard
In the case. He was sent for, and he
lied like good liar. He identified
Haines as the porter around the ware
house
From thence on until port was
reached Mr.. John Hart led a surpris-
ing life. That is, he was surprised to
awake in the morning and find him
self still alive; he was surprised to find
that he had life enough at night to turn
In; he was surprised that others could
be knocked about as they were and
fed as they were and still not mutiny
and murder the officers. He was an
object Of pity. He was starved and
worked and maltreated until he be-
came woman In spirit and only the
shadow of man. And in the midst
Of it all he had to remember that the
Brotherly Love was his best ship, the
one Of the trio least complained Of in
regard to food and treatment.
1t got about at home that 1.-THE sud-
den and mysterious disappearance Of
Mr.. John Hart" was owing to the fact
that he had been shanghaied on one
of his own vessels. She was to touch
at Bahia, and when the Brotherly
Love reached that port men came
aboard and identified the owner and
took him ashore. Captain and mates
were fired instanter, three or four Of
the crew arrested for assault and bat
terry on the high seas and the ship de-
tained a week. Then Mr.. John Hart
returned home. He had seen things
and felt things He no longer took an
interest in sailors and bethels. In fact,
he was tired Of being shipowner, and
not three months had passed when he
sold out everything and bought farm
and went to raising chickens.

They afford the comic relief in the tragedy of life, after the manner of the Shakesperean clown. They are comic grave diggers. They remind us that we are mortal. It is only their fun. We are-even the most foolish of us-endowed with a modicum of common sense. Let us apply it. We need not all clutch at dumbbells as drowning men clutch at straws. We may breathe easily with out giving heed to breathing exer- cises or fearing that because we omit them we are likely to breathe our last. We may banish all thought of our biceps, and yet strike the bacillus a mortal blow when it comes our way
 We may neglect to sleep O nights with our heads in hurricane and be none the worse. We may eat d shockingly unbalanced diet with Lu- cullus and feel all the better for it.

 municipal employees in search o1 higher wages any. In New York the

AN AUTOMATIC CASHIER.
Clever Invention Developed by
 Hartford Man.

Hartford, Oct PA very re
 markable machine, known as the
 automatic cashier, has been devel
 Oped by Irving R. Kenyon of this
 city and is now practically com
 pleted. A full size working machine
 is at No 105 Asylum street and a
 hundred others are almost ready for the market. ItG workings approach the marvellous and the convenience and infallibility of the thing will make it almost indispensable for | people who do a large business in small sales, especially soda foun- tains and possibly beer garden trade.
 Its purpose is to prevent mistakes and insure collection of all pay ments and au accurate account of them. At the start the clerk in a fixed sum of money given him to make change with and that amount is never disturbed. He has it in the morning and is to have it at night. No customer is served except by a printed check. Drop a nickel in the slot of Ihe machine and out comes check. Tell the clerk that you put in a dime and that mis- take has been made and he will show you through 2 glass the very coin you put in. PUt in dime and ont come two checks. You get your niCkels or dimes from the clerk who has the change ready.
 The cash deposited goes into locked drawer and a dial records the receipts. The income for the day is on one dial ard a continuous one keeps the score for the season, or as long as wanted. If a wrong coin or an imitation one is dropped in, tho machine refuses to record it and throws the fraud out in front. It's deliCaCy of touch is so fine that ii will not accept even the Old-fash- toned nickels Cn which there is the figure 'j. TEa-e are few of these left and they are being retired. The cashier does not like them. It will take the ordinary ones as fast as they are put ih. but vary the pro- gram with the o'd ones and back if returns tO 'is owner.
 The original invention was made in Pennsylvania. but it did not aI- together suit ard Mir Kenyon got hold of 1t and uader his supervision it has been reTl0deled and now 1t goes like ClOckyork. I. R Kenyon has the mechanical management and R. P. Kenyon, his father, has the business end. A number Of well known business men. most of them skilled manufacturers. are interested in the invention. which is under stood to be fIlI~ protected by pa- tents II is not known whether the manufacture WiIl be here or at some other place.

WOMAN 97 YEARS OLD.
Mrs Sutliffe of Terryville Gets Pen
 sion of S144 a Year.

Terryville, Oct. 29.-There is one woman who appreciates the open hand of the United States govern ment, and she is Mrs Elvira Sutliffe. Having raised a family of children and worked hard, now in her O. age there is nothing to support her but Uncle Sans pension. Mrs Sut- life is Terryville's oldest resident. how old no one can tell. Some say that sine is 97 and she says she is over 90. Her husband was Friend Sutliffe and he lost his life in the civil war.
 Old residents remember her going from house to house with a group of young ones following at her heels to do washings and all manner of work The children have abandoned her and the picture of the old woman sitting alone in her doorway is a familiar one. Half way between Plymouth and Terryville on the main highway at the western edge of Peat Swamp under the sheltering ledge of a rocky slope, is the little house that is her own. It was bought with s25O bounty money after the war and there Is no mortgage on it. The building was once a one room shop in the rear of the Porter Sanford place.
 Mrs Sutliffe was a great walker and walked to Plymouth and Terry vile each a mile away often, but now she sits in the southern doorway fac ing the road most of the time. The trip to Terryville last summer for her pension money was an effort Her boy Wilbur died many years ago. He was hunting up HaTwintOn way and shot himself. He had a new pair of shoes and he wasn't used to shoes and he slipped down on the rocks and the gun went of shooting him in the neck. His jaws snapped tight and they could not be opened. He had "chaw" of tobacco in his mouth and she could not get it out and so he was buried that way.
 Only one son ever comes to see her He IieTes with her and picks up fire wood when he isn't somewhere else. She has wilIed her place to her daughters son in Hzrwinton and he has promised that she shall not bel buried by the town The next pension money comes on the 4th of December Thus lives the independent old wo- man with her faculties for the most part uaimpaired and furnishing al home for herself and her son oa the income of s144 year
