they could make it even more lively for the

The Rev. Dr. Smith, who is a prominent
divine in New York, had been spending a few
tnys on an island on the Maine toast, and, in
tending to depart on a certain morning, he
sarted lor the b mt in company with a friend.
A porter folk-wed with the doctor’s valise.
A rriving at the wharf they found that, to
take advantage of the wind car tide, the boot
tad gone before the advertised time. Not
aware erf the clerical character ot the com-

The affair took place in one of the counties up
the Mohawk river many years ago. A man
was indicted for stealing a large number of
hams from a smoke-house. Indeed, be pretty
nearly emptied the smoke-house. At the trial
on the indictment the testimony was so clear
and strong against the prisoner that his law

■’be witnesses; I tell you the jury are all
right.” His counsel did as be was told. The
district attorney did not deem it necessary to
trouble the jury in so plain a case, and the
judge then gave a brief charge, and the jury
retired. They soon returned into court, and
to the amazement of judge, bar, witnesses
and spectators rendered a verdict of “Not
guilty.” As they went oat of the court bouse
the lawyer asked the prisoner bow on earth
that jury came to bring in inch a verdict.
“Why,” said the prisoner, “every man on that
jury bad some of the hams.”—New York Sun.

A woman, who 16 also well -known,
is indebted to her popularity for the
vice to which she Is a slave, nl con
tinnal demand and possessed of but
slight strength, she took the drag to
stimulate her for the duties of hostess
and soon found herself unable to dis
pense with its use. Her husband pos-
tively forbade the purchase by her of
more opium. He further restricted
her by threatening to discharge any of
the servants known to make any pur
chases In any drugstore without first
consulting w ith him. For a time his
wife drove to remote drug stores and
made her own purchases, but it did
not take her long to learn that the pres
ence of her elegant coupe in a street
like Archer avenue or Centre would
arouse suspicion and eventually lead to
her identity in spite of her early honrs
and heavy veil.
.She spared herself all this annoyance
by quietly confidlug loher physician,
from whom she received her first in
struction, the dilemma in which she
was placed and demanding that he
procure her the stimulart.
This was six years ago, and ever
since the physician has beeu at her
mercy, although his fees from this
alient alone are sufficient to sustain
lin without any other practice. It is
said that this woman’s viuaigrette is
filled, not with .perfume, nor Arabic
sglts, but with opium, which she rakes
as soou as she enters her carriage en
route for a party or entertainment, the
groom being directed to prolong the
ride twenty minutes unless the dis
tance is sufficient to consume that
aniouut of time. Her vagaries are said
to cost her htisbaud an average of $300
