Clever Scheme to Enable a Prisoner to Cut 11 is Way Out of Jail. "Whenever I see that particular brand of canned peaches," said a New Orleans grocer, indicating a row of tins on the top shelf. "I am reminded of something very queer that happened here several years ago. One day in the summer of "1)6, if I remember rightly, a refined looking woman of about 30, dressed in deep mourning, came into the store and bought a couple of cans of California peaches of the brand I have just pointed out. She had a cab and took them with her, and I thought no more of the incident until she returned next day, carrying the tins in her hand. "I have a sick brother at she said, naming a small town In Alabama, and was intending to send him these peaches, with a bundle of other things, yesterday. But, on second thought. I believe I will buy a few more delicacies and get you to ship them separately. There was nothing peculiar about the request and I assured her I would be glad to attend to the matter. She ordered four or five dollars' worth of ??4irtln(s i 1 1 i o c nllVOC TYlft T*. uincicut ci? uv i\_o jvinvoi vii ? w, malade and so on?paid the bill and gave me her brother's name, directing the things to be sent to him in rare of captain somebody or other, at the Alabama town which she mentioned before. As soon as she left, I got out a box and began to pack up the consignment: but as soon as I came to the peaches I noticed that the two cans which she had returned were both slightly 'blown,' as we call it in the trade. In other words, the tops bulged outward a trifle, indicating that a little fermentation had been going on. Not wishing to send a sick man anything but the best, I set them aside and put in two fresh cans from the shelf. The box was shipped by the first express. "Nearly six months after this episode," continued the grocer, with twinkling eves, "we were cleaning out our old stock and ran across those ! two cans of peaches. I picked up one | of them carelessly, and, my hand being wet, a piece of the label came off. i You may imagine my surprise to see a lot of small saws soldered to the I side of the tin. and on further exami nation we found that they completely encircled the can. and that the other j was in exactly the same condition. I At that I began to have a faint ink| ling of the truth and lost no time mak; ipg a few inquiries. I found that the Alabama captain was the sheriff of his county and the invalid brother had ! been one of his official guests. He ! was a burglar and had since been sent to prison for ten years. The scheme was pretty shrewd. In the first place, the sheriff would not be apt to be suspicious of a package of goods comI ing direct from a reputable business j house, and. even if he opened the cans i before giving them to the prisoner, | there would be nothing wrong inside. I The crook must have been bitterly I disappointed when he examined the substitutes that I sent. The saws, as we afterward found out, were highly tempered and could cut stell bar like yellow pine. Who was the woman in black, did you ask? I have no idea; probably a sister, or wife, or sweetheart. I never laid eyes on her afterward."?The New Orleans TimesI Democrat. No '\Yait?T? 1o He Tipped.

Robert Rrcwning and Joaehip met one evening at a friendly gathering in London. The violinist had "obliged" without satisfying certain ladies, who entreated the poet to obtain from hirn another solo. Browning, feeling the delicacy of his task, discharged it diplomatically, and spoke, as sometimes he wrote, so as i to conceal his thoughts; while the violinist. not understanding, bowed and smiled, and did not play. As they ' leu the house, Joachim asked. "What did you mean just now?" "Oh." said thp nopf "I wanted you to give us j some more music." "Then why did I you not come and say, 'Joe, old boy give us another tune' ?" returned the amiable violinist.?Argonaut. An Aceil Mi??ouri Mule.

WEDDING CAKE LONER,v Great importance is always attached to the bride's cake on the oecasyui of a wedding, and it is usually accorded a distinct place of honor in the marriage festivities. The bride herself takes no small amount of interest in this emblem of her nuptials, and undoubtedly keenly appreciates the task of cutting up the cake after the wedding ceremony and dispatching small portions in the fancy pasteboard boxes with the orfhodox silver-edged card to her friends and relatives. In the designing and choosing of artistic wedding cake boxes all showy effects should be discouraged and simple elegance aimed at. The boxes may be mounted in either fancy embossed paper, rich watered or plain Bilks or satins. The silver or gold entwined monogram of the bride and bridegroom and the pretty bow of suitably colored ribbon always impart a very effective appearance to even au ordiuary cardboard box. 3 "I am so nervous and wi I fly."
