A highly respectable gentleman i arrived at York one evening with luggage and dined well, went to bed : early, rose in good time and had a ! substantial breakfast. After this i meal he casually asked the landlord if there was anything of special interest in York. "The assizes are on, but I do not know if there is anything particularly interesting in the J list/' was the response. "Thanks/' drawled the stranger. "I'll look in if I happen to pass the | court and see." He did look in and heard a follower of Dick Turpin in the dock, charged with highway robbery, pleading his innocence vehemently to a stolid judge and jury, who, with firm faces, (lid not iook as 11 tney placed much credence in the prisoner's profession of innocence. Suddenly the prisoner caught sight of the stranger, who had strolled in from the hotel out of curiosity. "Here, thank God, is some one who can prove my innocence!" cried the prisoner, pointing to the stran- i ger, who was aghast at becoming the center of interest so unexpectedly. He seemed astonished and shook his head. "Oh, yes," cried the accused; "just think! You were at Dover?a long way from here. You came out of the Ship hotel, and I took your luggage in a wheelbarrow to the Calais packet at the pier. That was the day I am supposed to have committed the crime ud here." The stranger seemed bewildered. The judge, struck with the tragic earnestness of the prisoner, questioned the 6tranger, but the latter could not assist him much. "Have you any notebooks," asked the judge?"any memorandum of your movements on that day?" "I am a merchant," replied the stranger, "connected with an old established firm of bankers in London. I travel a lot and of course enter everything in my books. Here are my keys if the court cares to send to my hotel and bring here the books out of my case. I can easily settle the point." The bojks were fetched. They showed that the man had been in Dover that day and had left by the Calais packet. This was sufficient for the judge and jury. The prisoner was acquitted. Comic sequel: Both the "banker from London" and the highwayman were placed in the same dock shortly afterward charged with daring burglaries in the neighborhood.? London Standard. A Favor Appreciated. "I have come to inform you," said the young man who thought the firm would have to go out of business if he went away, "that unless my salary is raised I shall have to sever my connection witb this establishment." "Thank you," replied the general manager. "Am I to understand, then," the young man asked, "that you accede to my demand ?" "No. I thanked you because you had relieved me of an unpleasant duty. I always hate to discharge a man who will be unable to hold a job an here else."*?Chicago Record-Herald. Ancient Manufacture of Copper. The ancient Syrians and Phoenicians are well known to have been active traders in copper, and they manufactured this metal into bronze by melting it with tin. Learned antiquaries assure us that the Phoenicians actually came to England and to Ireland in search of the tin for this purpose, and some years ago some curious ui umc ai found in several of the old mine workings in Cornwall, which are believed to have been left there by that ancient people at a time when no bronze was either made or used in. England.?Chambers' Journal. Easy Money. Theodore Hook was one of the Garrick club's most famous members. He generally arrived at the club late in the afternoon and "never went home till morning." He had been told by the doctors, he said, to avoid the night air. A member of the club in Hook's time predicted the advent of the millennium at the end of three years. "All right," cried Hook. "Give me a five pound note now, and I will repay you ?50 at the millennium." Partners In Debts. "My tooth is just killing me," she complained. "Why don't you go to the dentist about it?" asked he. "Because," said she, "I owe him money." "You and I seem to be in hard luck," said he. "Now, look at me. Every time I go out in my automobile it breaks down right in front of some store where I owe a lot of money."?New York Press. ' i 4 COURTSHIP CRISES. When She First Meets His Family and He First Meets Her Folks. There are two events in young courtship that, until a man is well schooled by frequent experience, loom up with horrifying particularity of incident as moments of excruciating agony. The first is when he introduces "her" to his mother; the second is the presentation of himself to "her" family. Xo man likes to appear at even temporary disadvantage, and yet before the scrutiny of a calculating family he is fain to concede that he would not care to be such a complete fool as he appears to be, or at least feels, under the ordeal. So far * as introducing "her" is concerned, there is the miserable feeling that the eye of experience may not view the treasure with such open and generous vision as is befitting; that the hitherto unblemished angel may possibly, under the critical investigation, bear some mortal defect, a scar or two, quite unsuspected and unseen by love's fond glance. The moment is critical. How much more humiliating then is the other event. You have, in the first place, a sneaking idea that she has overdone it with the folks, carried away by a pardonable enthusiasm, , that this excess of adulation may re act under the somewhat caustic and altogether distrustful regard of a devoted family and that pitfalls lurk in father's prosaic, businesslike conversation and-in mother's domestic insinuations. You feel that sister is not so well disposed as might be hoped and that brother has decided against you, unseen and unheard. That the summing up will be something you would really prefer not to hear and that the old legend of two lovers being their whole world is indeed a legend and nothing more. And so the poor fool sneaks away from the front porch with an indestructible conviction that heaven is indeed afar off and love a state that bides many leagues from Paradise valley. ? Seattle Post-Intelligencer. i Tho Yur Without 8ummer. The year 1816 has a remarkable cold weather record and is known as "the year without a summer." In that year there was a sharp frost in every month, and the people all over the world began to be i 3 lieve that some great ana aeiuuvo change in the earth was taking place. Frost, ice and snow were common in June. Almost every green thing was killed, and the fruit was nearly all destroyed. During the month snow fell to the depth of three inches in New York and Massachusetts and ten inches in Maine. There were frost and ice in July in New York, New England and Pennsylvania, and corn was nearly all destroyed in certain sections. Ice half an inch thick formed in August. A cold north wind prevailed all summer. Fruitful Comparison. "That girl is a peach," enthusiastically remarked a spectator. "Yes," said another, "and she is the apple of her father's eye." "She and young Binks would make a fine pair," suggested a third. -? " ' ' 1 J.1 IV* "i5ut," ODjeciea anouier iu mc group, "a fellow like Binks would find her something of a lemon in the garden of love/' The cynical bystander who had been listening butted in at this point. "I don't know the young lady," he said dryly, "but she seems to be very fruitful in her resources."? Baltimore American. ~t*. ? j|f i The Storm Nom at Sea. I The picturesque name of storm nose (gewitternase) is given in Germany to the wave of high barometric pressure which often precedes a storm or a heavy squall. The barometer rises suddenly and then falls more gradually. It is believed that this phenomenon is responsible for sudden changes in the level of the sea. Observations on the seas surrounding Denmark have led to the conclusion that the change of level thus produced sometimes amounts to no less than three feet. ?Youth's Companion. An Appeal For Mercy. "Judge," said the prisoner, "I suppose you're going to soak me." "You are a habitue' oTender," replied the judge; "were caught with the stolen goods, and the court will have to do its painful duty." "I don't want to seem unreasonable/' replied the prisoner. "I don't mind a long sentence. I'm used to it. But say, judge, cut out the lecture that usually goes with it, won't you ?"?Philadelphia Ledger. Goodnesa Nose!
