Tho command was frequently applauded on tho way by spectators who lined the sidewalks. As tho aovoral companies entered the armory they wero applauded by a throng of admirers who had collooted in tho galleries and many of whom were ladies.

Colonel Partridgo made a brief speech before dismissing the command, in which ho thanked his men and referred to the complimentary opinions that had been passed by the State officers. A reception to the regiment by the Veleran Association was precluded by the death of James Frederick Craft, secretary of the association, and an ex member of Company V. The funeral to morrow will take place from the late residence of tho deceased, at 205 Stuyvesant avenue. Lieutenant Ilendricksou, of Company who was unable to go to camp, had a neat spread ready for his comrades in the company room.

The Siacs are no longer leaders of the South Side League. That position was yesterday wrested from them by the Domestic, and that club now heads the list for tho championship. It was an interesting contest, and a large attendance witnessed tho defeat of the Siacs at Woodhaven. Grady was hit hard at intervals, while errors at critical periods of the game helped the victors to pile up the runs. Tho score was 9 to 3 in favor of tho Domestics.

The Winonas have made a fine record so far this season, having played six games and not lost any. Snow, their pitcher, is only 18 j'ears old, but iB somewhat of a phenomenon, and promises to prove a good one for some professional team. It is to his pitching that the Winonas owe their success. In the game yesterday he struck out fourteen of the Nadjys, who are counted a strong amateu i team.

There was a large crowd of baseball enthusiasts present at the Parade Ground, Prospect Park, yesterday, it having been announced that there would be three games played in the Brooklyn Amateur League. A great many were disappointed, however, as only one game, that between the Resolutes and Washingtons was played. The Sidneys forfeited their game to tho Pultons, and the Federals to the Reliance.

At least two thousand spectators surrounded the diamond on No. 1 Ground to see the contest between the two leading clubs. The Resolutes and Washingtons had out their best batteries and a fine game was played. The Washingtons made a run in their second inning, another in the seventh and three in the last. In the third inning tho Resolutes made one and two iu the fifth and sixth.

A DIFFKKKST SAME AT THE Speaking of ministers' salaries recalls a bon mot of the late Henry Fairbrother. Meeting minister in Pawtucket with whom ho was well acquainted one day, the divine told him he had received a call to another parish and should accept. "A call said Henry. "Yes, I have been laboring in the vineyard of the Lord here in Pawtucket for a number of yearB for a salary of SI, 500 per annum and have received a very nattering offer to go to Brooklyn, with a salary of "And that is what you mean by a call?" "Yes." "Well, up at tho club we should call that a raise." Telegram. The Crack Jockey Leaves the Chicago Stable.

He Will be a Trainer Next Year At tost Lone street Wilis a Stake Race The lhvyer Brothers' Hessie June Defeated, but They Back the Winner, Fitzroy. Jimmy McLaughlin, the crack jockey, in homo again. Ho was fit the Monmouth Park race track yesterday, looking very bright am contented. McLaughlin told his friends that he lr.ul parted company with the Chicago Stable and would not ride West again this year. He will probably accept an engagement as trainer for Pierre Lorillard next season.

is expected that he will rido for Mr. Haggin during the present ear whenever his services can be utilized. Georgo Taylor, the clever lightweight jockey who recently left the Dwyers, has been offered an engagement as first jockey for Mr. Lorillard. In McLaughlin Mr.

Lorillard will secure a valuable and honest trainer; as for Taylor, there is not a better lightweight jockey in the country. Little Barnes has won more races up to date during the present season than any of tho jockeys riding East or West. But he has had many more mounts than Taylor. Barnes lias won OS races and lost 255. Taylor has won 07 racos and lost.

177. He will work harmoniously witii the great McLaughlin. Yesterday tho Monmouth Pari: Committee of Inquiry into certain statements made by leading newspapers Jinished its labors. With marked unanimity tho press of New York and the Haoi.k last Sunday called attention to the way iu which Tipstaff was ridden on the day previous. Many spectators of tho race thought that the rider of Tipstaff would be ruled off.

The careful reporters who watched the race said some tilings about the horse's Jock iy which moved his owner, Green B. Morris, to wrath. Mr. Morris called for an. investigation.

Messrs. Withers, Cassatt and Galway investigated. Morris naively told the committee that he did not back his horse Tipstaff to win, but did havo on G. W. Cook to win.

Said he: "Nine out of ten owners back other horses than their own in races." Messrs. Galway and Cassatt promptly declared that they were nut in the habit of backing other horses to beat their own. The turf reporter of the liwnin'j J'ust was called in and before he could give any testimony was told that he was a liar and an impostor. He declined to remain in the room with the dignified turfman who insulted him. The turf reporter of the Tinii's was spoken to sharply because lie had intimated that the judges wero hampered by the management.

Then Captain Sam Brown's trainer explained why Reporter ran well some days ami poorly others by saying he' was a sulky brute. Finally, tin; committee came to the conclusion yesterday that Mr. Morris' horse was not pulled and iufcrentiully that his Jockey must be regarded as an ornament to the turf. It was also found that Reporter had not Ijeeu run crookedly, and that Tcnttey did about the best be eon hi when he came in at the tail end of a race. When the races were over it was reported that the committee felt disposed to rule off the reporter of tho Tinws.

The reporters simply wrote in a mild form the sentiments of hundreds who witnessed the races iu question. On tho whole the reporters have been gentle iu their references to races which have exasperated many betters who do not follow the races for a living. In virtually censuring the reporters for performing their duty, the committee also censures the scores of spectators who condemned tho riding of Tipstaff and criticised the riming of lieporter and Tenney. That the judges are not infall.blo; that their eyes are not always to hi! relied oir, was forcibly illustrated by what they did after one race on the day the investigation was begun. A hors3 that came in last was placed second liy the judges.

After tho judges had left the stand attention was called to the gross blunder they had made. They wero linally persuaded that they had blundered, and ordered that the Dwyer Brothers' Onway be placed second in the race. In the meantime bookmakers paid place money on the horse that ran last, because the judges had placed him second to the winner. It follows that if judges could make a blunder of this kind they might have overlooked the riding of Tipstaff. A do.en reporters connected with different papers au'i ee, without consultation, that a certain horse is ridden strangely, to put it mildly; many spectators loudly denounce the jockey, and yet the judges arc of the opinion that the reporters are all wrong, and strong intimations are given that the offending scribes may be ruled off.

No one doubts that Messrs. Galway, and Withers are honorable gentlemen. They are turfmen of conceded high repute; but Colonel Simmons and Mr. McDowell, judges, are a long way off from infallibility. It is true that Colonel Simmons has had long experience as a judge in various section; of the country at Brighton Beach, Now Orleans and elsewhere, but bis eyes arc no keener than those of the sharp eyed young men who hold glasses on every race in the turf reporters' row.

But now that the investigation is over it is generally believed that a better condition of af fairs all around will prevail. Messrs. Withers, Cassatt, Galway and he associates will not tolerate anything savoring of crookedness hereafter. Some of the sharp horsemen at Monmouth l'ark arc preparing to get away. Ivl.

Corrigan has left for Chicago with all his horses except Spectator, who is left with Green Morris. It is likely that Mr. Morris will leave for Saratoga soon, for his sensitive spirit cannot brook the harsh criticisms of the press. There will be more satisfactory racing at Monmouth hereafter than there has been. The management will have a sharp look out for own ers who do uot stand weu in tne estimation ot the public.

In the first race yesterdav the public made Bessie June a hoi favorite; the odds against her wore cut down to against 10, the bookmakers taking the small end. The Dwyers are said to have backed to win and made a bar'l on the race, for Fitzroy did win. This report, caused considerable unfavorable comment on the part of Bessie June's backers. But the Dwyers had lust as much of a right to back a horse against their own entry as Mr. Morris had to back G.

W. Cook against Tipstaff. It is a fact that the Dwyers have often backed a horse in a race that has been won by their own entry. Following is a summary of tlie racing: FITZROY FIRST, Silt RF.CONI. 1'irHt rcc 1'rcn hiwiitictip sweepstakes each, if not ilccturoil out.

Tom Twenty third Regiment Home Again From Peekskill. A Flattering Record for the Week's Work nt the State Training Ground The Lust Sight Ugder the Tents.

Corresoondenes of tho State Camp, Pkekskii.l. July 20. Tho last night spent by the Twenty third in camp was picturesque and one likely to be remembered by the men notwithstanding the fact that a persistent rain drenched the canvas city and put a stop to many outdoor celebrations that had been duly planned to signalize the dying hours of this year's encampment for the Brooklyn boys. A brief lull in tho onslaughts of the elements gave the regiment opportunity just after supper to extend a notable courtesy to their field officers ami to General Porter. They marched in a battalion to Colonel Partridge's tent and proceeded to cheer themselves hoarse with regimental yells.

They then went to the tents of Lieutenant Colonel Smith and Major Waters and repeated tho performance. After this demonstration the entire battalion, having obtained permission of the officers of the post, so that no regulations might be violated, repaired to the street iu front of Luxury Bow and dividing into wings made the whole camp ring with ch jers for General Portor. They cheered by wings and then all together, bringing every deni.en of a tent in camp to his door to find out what was up. The programme laid out by Bandmaster Fobs for the evening's music had to bo consummated inside the adjutant's tent to prevent the musicians from getting wet. A merry party collected in tlie neighboring streets in big blue overcoats that defied the moisture and listened, laughing and clapping their hands.

ladies enjoyed the concert from the hospitable shelter of the officers' tents adjoining. Moanwhilo heavy clouds and masses of swirling mist capped the surrounding mountains and scurried across the valleys. On the whole it was a novel scene and characteristic of life on the tented field. When the last strains died away tho groups dispersed or took their several ways to the company streets for a discussion of things in general and a ginger snap. The Socond Battery and Companies I and went into the matter more thoroughly than this indulging in cold meats and light beverages.

The members of Company A stood in line in their street in a searching drizzle to witness the presentation ot a drinking cup, which folds up into a watch, to Lieutenant Smith, lier gcautDuffeo made the speech. The lieutenant has been asked what time it was a goott many times since. Assemblyman Joseph Aspiuall, of Brooklyn, was among those who enjoyed the hospitality of the camp last night. He drove over from Garrison's, a point seven miles from here, opposite West Point, with Hamilton Fish, whom he has been visiting, to see Colonel Partridgo and his command in camp. The Assemblyman paid his respects to General Porter.

The rain came down torrents all night, but morning broke with the camp steaming under a fierce Bun. There wero morning company drills, but no battalion drill, the time from breakfast until noon being occupied in policing quarters and camp streets, collecting tho State property preparatory to turning it over to the post quartermaster and packing personal property for the journey home. Some of the companies devoted a. little attention to "winning" from others what they were short of on the returns, in the way of blankets, camp stools, basins Winning is the common term for a method of appropriating the belongings of others, which might be indicated by a much less euphemistic word. Many of the officers devoted their time to getting photographs of themselves in their nobbiest uniforms and a carefully cultivated smile.

On tho whole tho record of tho regiment for the week has been such as to give the members just cause for congratulation. The figures of the headquarters' clerk, Sergeant Quereau, who, by the way, according to Adjutant Sillcocks and tho members of the noncommissioned staff is equal to any in the guard, show that the percent age of attendance is 09.12, which is just a trille better than the famous Seventh's 08.8. In other words, the Twenty third has had an average of 000 men iu camp throughout the week, out of a membership of 804. Not an error has been found in the company's reports. The regiment has performed its full quota of battalion drills, notwithstanding the rainy days that have been encountered.

For the last two days the performance of guard duty, tho company and battalion drills and the condition of quarters have been such as to call for no official criticism from the post experts. Colonel Story says that the Twenty third has had less "sick'' men than any regiment this season, which means that few of them have tried to shirk duty. Colonel Partridge this morning declared that the week's work had been highly satisfactory to him. Ho would not say that there were not errors enough, but they were of an unimportant nature, and he was proud of tho showing the regiment has made. Colonel Loder, the regular army officer who is connected with the post, says pithily: "The.

Twenty third is practically good enough." General Porter's views are ex pressed in this wise: "One regiment is good at one kind of work and another at another kind. The Twenty third is good all round. It has done well here and has shown that tho armory duty at home has been well performed." The men were paid off after dinner for eight days, at the rate of $1.25 per day for enlisted soldiers and higher wages for the non commissioned, and commissioned officers, according to rank. About $7,000 of the State's money was used up in this way. Assistant Surgeon Cochran roports several men who are seriously sick and will have to bo taken home under the caro of the ambulance corps.

Sergeant George Urook, ot Company and Corporal Cook, of Company are down with pleurisy. Captain Frederick L. Holmes will relieve Cap tain Thurston as instructor in guard duty dnring the coming week, while the Twenty second Kegi ment, in which Captain Thurston commands a company, is in camp, iirst jjientcnant Christoffel, of Company J), Forty seventh Piegi ment, which follows the Twenty second here, reached camp to day. He will act as assistant instructor in guard duty during tho eoming woek. A report, which, however, lacks official confirmation, is current to day among the admirers of Lieutenant Colonel Smith's horsemanship that somebody yesterday presented him witli an untamed steed, and that he is to bo riding instructor of the post next season.

The record of unclaimed corpses, in all degrees of decomposition, at the Morgue shows 150 deaths during the week. Iu nearly every case fitting wakes have been held by tho non commissioned stall'. Sergeant Frost has kept tally by driving a brass tack into tho lid of tho general coffin for every new victim. General Porter has received application from tlie Twenty second Begiment, during the week, for permission to bring a number of newly enlisted meu to camp, which he granted under the condition that tho recruits are capable of performing proper duty. Last night several more applications came.

The men wiil be permitted to come to camp, but they will be inspc ted hero and if they are not sufficiently proficient wiil be sent back to the city. The officer of the day is Captain Saunders: officers of the guard, Lieutenants AVilliams and Croker. At 3:30 o'clock this afternoon Colonel Camp's Twenty second Regiment, of New York, 000 strong, with Gilmore's famous band, numbering 55 pieces, inarched into camp, receiving a salute from the Twenty third, which was drawn up battalion fronton the old parade ground. The Brooklyn regiment immediately took its way to the boat the New Yorkers had just vacated, and before 4 o'clock the Long Branch put off from the dock and started down the river. THE TWEXTY TIIIUD HACK FH0M CAMP.

The Twenty third Regiment returned to Brooklyn from their week's tour of duty at the State camp, Peekskill, on the steamer Long Branch, which reached the South Ferry dock at 7 o'clock last evening. The men looked like old campaigners with their bronzed facos and uniforms and equipments that gave evidence of hard and recent service. A considerable erovrd of friends and rolativea of tho members groetcd them at the pier. The regiment was formed on Atlantic avenue preparatory to the march to the armory. The route of march was Atlantic avonuo, Clinton and Sohermorhorn streets, To be Responsible for His Acts aa Excise Commissioner.

He Says that Neither Commissioner Bell Nor Commissioner Schliemuun Will Exert Any Influence Over His Acfhms in flic lionrd His Old Associates in the I'nilcd States Stores Banquet Him and Give Him Token or Their Regard. Excise Commissioner John W. Cahill, who was recently appointed by Mayor Chapin to till a vacancy in the Board, occasioned by the death of Commissioner John Cunningham, was iu tho hands of his friends last night, and they wined and dined him in a truly hospitable manner. As the Commissioner expressed it, he was completely taken by surprise and utterly overwhelmed by the evidences of regard that were showered upon him from all sides. About o'clock, while tho Commissioner was in tho bosom of his family at 13 Second place, he was astonished to see a column of men headed by a regimental hand stop in front of his domicile.

Presently a couple of them broke from the ranks, ascended the stoop where he was seated, and grasped him warmly by the hand. One of the gentlemen was Deputy City Clerk Cummiugs, of the Sixth Ward. He explained that the gathering without the gate were his former associates iu the States l'ublio Stores, where ho had been superintendent, and that they find assembled for Die purpose of presenting him with a mark of their esteem and affection. Then amid a big hurrahing lie was escorted to the place of honor on the line, the baud started up the "Star Spangled Banner," and the march to Reese's, I 7 Court street, where a banquet had been prepared, was commenced. The line moved through several streets in the vicinity of tho Commissioner's residence, followed by an unusually large number of small boys, to whom also the occasion was one of rejoicing.

On every hand the inquiry could be hee.nl: "What is it? It must be some poiiti atl'air." Whi the hall was finally reache ihe chairman stated the object of the meeting, and ho called upon Mr. Cuiumings to make the presentation speech attendant upon handing over a handsome gold headed cane which his late associates had purchased for him. Cummiugs made a fitting speech, and in accepting the token of their regard ttie Oulimussuiiier feelingly replied. Then tho band played some more and the party, seventy live or more in number, seated themselves at a long table which was fairly loaded down with good things. The party did not break up until a late hour.

During the evening a reporter of tho Eaiile asked the Commissioner whether he purposed siding with Commissioner Bell or Sehleimann in the Board. The question seemed to surprise tho Commissioner greatly. He said: "Now. don't you think that question is a little bit premature, as well as being unfair?" The reporter didn't see it. iu that light.

"Well, I will tell you," he said: "inasmuch as I have not taken anv pari in th" deliberations of the Board as yet, I really cannot answer your question. But I will say tliis I am going to act there in my individual capacity and in no other way. Neifher Commissioner li.ll nor Commissioner Schlie. maim will inlliieiice me against the tiietates of my own conscience, even in the slightest degree. I intend to do my duty as 1 see it and am willing to take the responsibility of my acts." FASHIONS I.

At tho present time, outside of Ihe National Park where about two bundled and sixty buffaloes are now harbored, there are not over three hundred, probably not as many, left in the whole Cnited States. The sm vivers of tins magnificent race of are sea! ti led in little bunches in several localities.

'There arc about one hundred iu Moutc.u'.!, ot tit least there were a year ago, some at the head of 1 ek and the remainder at the head of I'or upinr Creek. In Wyoming there are a few stragglers from the National l'ark, which, when chased, run back there for protection. In the mountains of Colorado last there wire two hum lies of mountain bison, one of twi nty live head and the other of eleven. Those have probably been killed. There are none in Dakota, though eighteen mouths ago thirty were known to lie here.

It was estimated in INN" that there wire twenty seven in Nebraska, and about fifty more scattered in tho western pari of the Indian 'Territory and Kansas. Those in Nebraska have since been killed by the Sioux. 01 Die thousands that once inhabited Texas, only (wo small bunches remain. Thirty two head are near (he Batons, in the northwestern part of the Panhandle, and eight in tho sand hills on the Staked Plains north of the Pecos River. These were seen and counted on (ho 1st of April of last year.

This estimate of Die remnant of a great race is believed to be essentially correct. It was obtained from reliable and well informed persons throughout the Wist, and in part from personal observation during the past years. Aid tier's UUER KAHCIT'S LIVELY KXI'ERIEXCE. A Thomas cat created some consternation in a good Methodist family of Clarke County recently. Tin family owned an old torn cat.

In fact, ho was. a regular heirloom, having existed many years a hence very ancient. The little chil dreii played with him: he lay peacefully at tho feet of the ladies and never thought of being frisks But a sudden change came over the spirit of the torn cat's dream the other day and new life was infused into him. The family were at prayer, a holy hour, when all upon their knoes they were silent in adoration. Tlie old cat suddenly became quite irreverent and went out for a lark.

It chanced tlv.it about this time Brer Rabbit came hounding on the roadside, and Brer Tom Oat jumpe i on and in id Ji i ill fast in his claws. Not satuT, i. he allowed his Joy to bubble over and went dancing into Die room to show his wonderful trophy. The family were still at prayer. Tlie cat slipped noiselessly in front of tho father and placed the rabbit in his chair.

And then came the tragic denouement. Tlie rabbit leaped from chair to chair. The sound of "Amen" mingled with the whizz of (lying fur, as old Tom cent clawing furiously at his victim. The ladies got upon the chairs and the little boys throw sticks at the combatants. Tlie dishes on the tablo rattled and pandemonium reigned for a low moments.

The rabbit got away and the old torn cat may again he found slumbering at tlie hearth stone. Since Brer Rabbit escaped his clutches ho has never smiled again. Savannah A'etos. Ginn it press, Boston, issues in good stylo not only the ancient but French classics in tho original, as for example A. N.

The Giants Won Yesterday Afternoon nnil Are Aow Almost Even With Uostoii St. Louis Scores Another Victory The Results of Other Games and the Records to Date. Tho Athletics again had to entor tho field yesterday witli a now iufielder, as their second baseman, Bauer, accompanied the remains of his wife to Philadelphia, Brennan taking Bauer's place at second base, while Purecll's position at right field was taken by Mattimore, the veteran having been overheated at the races on Friday.

When tho players wore roady at 4 P. M. Umpire Gaffuey was not on hand and the difficulty had to be faced of selecting an umpire in his place. After a discussion it was decided to place Cross, of the Athletics, and Btishong, of the Brooklyns, to act under the double umpire rule of tho association. Tho absence of tho three substitute umpires ne cessitated the adoption of this poor rule, which never can work satisfactorily except under very exceptional circumstances.

O'Brien led off with a two bagger to tho loft bank and then stole third, and after CollinB had been thrown out O'Brien ran for homo on Foutz's hit to Lyons, who easily threw out O'Brien at home, though O'Brien kicked at Bushong's thoroughly fair decision. Burns was ihen thrown out by Lyons and a blank whb drawn. On tlie other sido, after tho first two strikers had been easily retirod, Lyons was given his base on balls, but Stovoy's high ball to right field was well taken by Collins, and the first inning ended with the score 0 to 0. The second inning did not change the score, though both Hides made base hits. In the third inning fungo hits by O'Brien and Foutz, after Smith had earned his base, led to a blank score, despite Collins' sacrifice: a two bagger by Welch and good 'stealing let in ono run.

This left the Athletics in tho van by 1 to 0 at the end of tho third, and the game bogan to bo interesting. In the fourth inning, after Burns and Pinkney had fungoed out with easy catches to the outfielders, Corkhill got in a pretty right field bounder and on a similar hit by Terry he went to third, and seeing Mattimoro holding the baU to throw he stole home and got the run, a fungo hit by Clark ending the inning, with 'Terry on second. As the Athletics drew a blank tho fourth inning ended with the score at 1 to 1 and a close light on hand. In the fifth inning an error by Fennolly, after two men were out, and two bases on balls placed three men on bates, but Piukney's force hit ended tho inning for a blank witli three men left. On tho other sido the visitors did no better and the score was still left at, 1 to 1.

In the sith inning, despite base hits by Terry and Clark pretty bounders sharp fielding put the sido out for a blank, a line double play being a feature. The Athletics, too, drew a blank after a base hit, a good catch by Burns ending tho inning. In the seventh inning, after O'Brien had struck nut, Collins hit for two bases, and on Foutz's sacrifice, lly got to third; but he was left, as Burns hit easily to Stovoy. On the other sido telling hits by Mattimore, Seward and Welch, with errors by Smith and Collins, let in two runs and gave tlie lead to the Athletics by to 1, and tho contest now hail an unfavorable look for Brooklyn. The eighth inning did not change the figures, and tho homo team came into their ninth with slight prospects of escaping defeat.

In tho ninth inning tho visitors kicked at Bushong's calling of balls, Seward pitching very trickily and playing every point he could. Despite three bases on balls tho sido was put out for a single run and the Athletics won by to 2. Wretched fungo hitting loBt the game, nine easy chances being given to Stovey and Welch and not a chance to the right field. Terry wns the only man to handle his bat properly.

Sergeant Arahin had come down from the dining room with the alderman on the rota, and they took their seats upon, tlie bench, the countenances of both bearing testimony their afternoon's carouse had not been a light one. The prisoner first upon the list was in the dock, and flic prosecutor was in the witness box, so that ail was ready for tlie trial. There was no counsel in the case, and, that being so, the judge always examined the witnesses from the written depositions which were taken by tho magistrate and returned to the court by him.

Now Arabin was very short sighted and also very deaf. On this occasion lie unluckily took up a set of depositions which had no reference to the prisoner at the bar; the charge against him being that of stealing a kerchief, while the judge's attention was fixed upon a charge of stealing a watch. Holding the abortive writing close to the light, ami peering at it through his spectacles, he began his examination: Judge Well, witness, your name is John Tomkins. Witness My lord, my name is Job Taylor. Judge Ah! I see you are a sailor and you live in the New Cut.

Wiincss No, my lord: I live at Wapping. (fudge Never mind your being out shopping. Had you your watch in your pocket on the 1 Oth of Novemhor '1 Witness never had but one ticker, my lord, and that has been at the pawnshop for the hist six months. Judge Who asked you how lone: you bad tlie watch Why can't you say yes or no? Well, did you sec the prisoner at tho bar? Witness (in a loud tone of voice, for he began tn he a little confused by the questions put to him) Yes; of eourso J. did.

Judge That's right, my man, speak tin and answer shortly. Bid the prisoner take your watch Witness (in a still louder tone)! don't know what you're driving at. How could he get it without the ticket and that I had left with Die missus Arabin, who heard distinctly the whole of the last answer, threw himself back in his chair, adjusted his glasses, and glared at the witness box with a look of disgust. At last he threw down the depositions to an elderly counsel who was seated at the barristers' table, and said, "Mr. llyland, I wish you would take this witness in hand and see, whether you can make anything of him, for I can't." Now Rylaud had been dining at (he 3 o'clock dinner, too, and he was never behindhand in doing honor to the civic hospitality.

lb' stood up, stared ferociously (for he had countenance that could do if to perfection) at flic unlucky witness, and, turning round and looking up at the. bench, observed, My lord, it is my profound lief that this man is drunk. "It's a reniarkabie coincidence, Mr. Ryland," said tlie judge, "that is precisely the idea that has been in my mind for the last, ten minutes. It is disgraceful tic! witnesses should come into a sacred court of justice like this in such a state of intoxication." Then, leaning over his desk to the deputy clerk of arraigns, who was seated below him.

ha said, Mr. Mosely. don't allow this witness one. farthing of expenses. I'll put a stop to this scandal if I can." I need hardly say that tho source of the mistake was discovered and the witness got his expenses in the eud.firrgraiU JiobhusoH's Jlcuch ami Jim: MB.

WABNKR'R KIMM'ATEI) AbbHiATOK. In this paper a few weeks ago mention was mailo of an alligator about four feet long that had been captured by Ban Warner on the sidewalk iu the most thickly settled portion of our city. Dan felt as soon as ho saw the young saurian that it possessed unusual intelligence, and set about to tench him. It is perfectly wonderful the progress John he has been christ 'itc John has made. The bake shop is to him a revt laiion.

He will, after tho bread lias been taken from the nans, take the utensils and pile them in the corner as neatly as a boy could do it. The first trick he learned was to stand on his tail and hind feet. It is pathetic to him a he assumes the position and crosses his tore i'eei over his breast, awaiting the loaf which is given him as a reward for his skill. He is very fond of eider, and Schmidt cc Warner have, found it necessary to place the barrel beyond his reach, as lie has half a dozen times turned the faucet. The boys do not mind the single glass, but he docs uot seem to have learned the art of cutting it oil', ami he was not discovered until a gallon or more had been wasted.

A FIGHT ItETWKES TKOiri Atthefoot of the Brush Mountain, near Bell wood, in the famous Logan spring of David Heu shey, while performing their rounds of Sunday work, Mrs.

John Henshcy and several others of the family were eye witnesses of a fight which may sound like a fish story; nevertheless, it is true. At the head of this large fountain they noticed an unusual disturbance in the water. Going nearer they observed a nuiuh of beautiful trout swimming to and fro, nuking a great commotion. While getting a good vi of Die encounter all except two dispersed, which wero about one foot in length and whose spotted sides glistened iu the pure, clear water. In an instant the larger but less inactive one bounced upon the smaller, seizing it by the back and clinging to it like bloodhound.

The next moment the smaller one, whisking and twirling itself almost out of the water, secured its freedom, when in turn it grappled the large one. Biting each other in the side, head, back and tail, the fight continued for twenty minutes, causing thSfblood to flow freely from their wounds, so as to darken tho water. Mrs. Henshcy, seeing that death would be the result, ran for a hay rake, and securing one, sho parted them. to her great surprise, they rushed together again.

Another heavy blow from tho rake, striking both Bceniingly dead, ended the fight. Exchange. Games Pl'd. Won. Lost.
