SPRING IS COMING. By the long-haired poets’ lays, By the shocking muddy days— Spring is coming. By the festive bock-beer signs, By the small boy baseball nines, By the way the coal declines— Spring is coming. All the burdy-gurdys chime— Spring is coming German bands all out of time : Tramps and beggars give you Coming from the country jail. By your wife you now are sent Looking for a house to rent: Thus you know, the while you cringe At your rheumatism’s twinge— pring is coming. J. J. O'CONNELL. Judge’s Charge.

You must say you commute, MUCH MEDICINE They tell of a man who drank only for medicinal purposes, and a little investigation showed that he was by all odds the sickest man in the congregation. * HIS SHEEPSKIN, A Japanese student in Michigan university, having married an American girl, may be said to have completed the finest education that ever x Japanese young man had. LET US BE JUST. An Irishman in Leadville who can neither read nor write has made $3,000,000 in four years, but it is only fair to say that it was luck rather than lack of education that enabled him to do it. THAT BOY. ASt. Louis dispatch tells about a diabolical boy. Aha! so the young rascal finds himself in St. Louis at last, does he? It fulfills our | prediction; though, to be sure, we had located bim in « penitentiary nearer home. MOTION AS INDICATIVE OF CHARACTER, There are certain movements of individuals, s the extension of a hand, the methods of car- rying a cane or a parasol, that mark the per- sons so that, disguise themselves as they may, atrained detective would “spot” them any- where or under any circumstances. They are | involuntary, and all the training m the world | would not change them an iot In Paris one day a gentleman came upon a lidy whom he had not met in forty rs.‘ There isa fold in her dress that scems familiar,” he said. “Where have I seen it 7” lifted her head. id there was that in the movement which carried him back a multitude of years. “* Whence,” he asked himself, in brown study, ‘come these impalpable, inde- scribable motions that indicate individuality ? I must have seen that lady in some other state of existence.” By this time the crowd was passing out of the place and he accidentally stepped on the lady's dress. She turned, and in sudden passion boxed his ears. ‘‘ Hah!” he exclaimed, “I thought I knew you. You used to be my wife.” e Play. first act of Nat Goodwin's new “ opera” ico, the second in a canyon and the third in jail.

This young lady had had too many earthquakes in hers in her native state to be wholly put out by the foreign article.
