A joke was played on Mr. Lewis Bradley, '
grocer, Thanksgiving week, which, as he is‘
true to his known humorous instincts, he will
acknowledge isa good one. The perpetra-
tors are Westport men who travel together a
good deal, are known to our townspeople and
are patrons of Mr. B. Passing that individ-
nal‘s’store daily, the gentlemen saw one of
these fine turkeys B. is in the habit of keep-
ing at this season hanging in front of the
store entrance, and they resolved to spirit it
away without B.'s knowledge. To do
this required calculation and cool delibera-
tion. Their scheme resulted in success as
follows; The gentlemen made frequent jour-
neys to and from the village, each time
'watching the store, the idea being to catch
B. alone. They had to wait along time for
this as B. was overrun with customers, and
had somebody continually talking to him.
When disengaged the clerk was in, and of
course-it wouldn't do to proceed with two
pair of eyes likely to be turned at any mo-
ment towards the suspendeD bird. The gen-
tlemen continued their walks eagerly watch-
ing fora chance to grab, their minds being
very far from embodiments of “patience on
a monument." *' To them it seemed as though
the rush fer B.’s goods would never cease,
and long delay caused them to meditate aban-
doning their design. At last, as good luck
would have it', B. was alone—the clerk was
out, .no customer near. They entered the
store and asked for pork chops. B. had some
very fine at fair price, and he stalked to the
rear of the store where the meat lay, the gen-
tlemen following. B’s back must be towards
the door as be bent over to handle the knife
and saw, and while he was discoursing on the
superiority and eheapness of fresh pork, as
compared with other meats, one of the gen-
tlemen remembered an errand he had to do
in the village,‘-—he would go down there and
right back while his friend waited. Instead
of going to the village, however, he took a
contrary direction, .gently lifting from its
hookas he passed out, the defunct turkey,
Shielding it from view beneath an ample
overcoat, he made his way up street toward
Compo The chops were cut and paid for in
due time, and the friend, aware of his com-
panion’s movement. left, B. unsuspecting.
The turkey was put in a place of safety, and
towards night the jokers made an excuse to
Meantime B. had discover-
ed his loss and was howling over it. The
jokers called at the store and heard B.'s tale
of woe. . He said: “ Who'could‘ have treated
me so? I have been forty years in business,
and never before has such a trick as that
been played on me. “'er can the thief be,
etc." The jokers sympathized with the af-
flicted (.9) and tried to console him. their
tones bespeaking clear consciences, and their
eyes beaming with innocency. "it was in-
deed an outrage," they said, ” and the guilty
parties, whoever they were, should not go
unpnnished. ’They would assist in ferreting
out the rascals. Such work was a disgrace
to any commuity, etc." _. Thus modified, B.
felt strength to put up with his misfortune.
It soon became known‘ that B. had been
victimized, and bushels of condolence,-—if
that figure is proper—were poured in upon
rim. He swallowed all, and, turning over
his quid of tobacco, resolved to make the
nest of it. In due time the jokers caused the
turkey to be roasted, and while at special
dinner discussing its savory quintessence, its
tender breast, juicy brown meat, wholesome
stufling and rare gravy, they thought of the
evils demoralizing the world—the proneness
of man to sin, and his total disregard, some-
times, of the “GoldenRulc.” Thefiavor of
two good cigars fixed in the jokers‘ minds, 9.
new conception of what -is meant by true
charity, and with a magnanimity worthy of
imitation, they strolled down to B.’s, and,
having computed the cost of 13; pounds of
turkey at 18 cents per pound, they explained
the bird's mysterious disappearance. The
payment by them of $2.43, not only lifted a
‘Ieavy load from B.'s mind, but raised to
its proper position on the ledger, an item
which had been charged to the profit and loss
account. A hearty laugh followed in which
B. was loudest. As there had been no-crimi-
nal intent on the part of the jokers, B.,
though having cause, will not prosecute.
A war of the elements took place Saturday
morning, extreme cold, fierce wind and driv-

flash of lightning followed by loud thunder.
Then came snow with wind from the west,
which at nightfall had not blown itself out.
Among gates, shutters and doors weak in the
hinges, dry limbs of trees, loose bricks on
chimney, fences and light materials, there
was lively stirrinw. The snow drifted as in
March.

A Singular Affair. ' .
Some three weeks ago the Brewster Sta-ml-
a-rd published the marriage notice of Mr.
John A. lllerrittato Miss Mary E. Knox, both
of that village, by Rev. J. J. Dean. In the
next issue of the Standard a denial was made
by Mr. Merritt that he was married to Miss'
Knox, although he acknowled es that he has
“kept company” with her an was engaged
to her. He claims that some one personated
him and he is not the husband of the lady
who claims him. Miss Knox, on the other
hand, is emphatic in the statement that Mer-
rItt drove to her house, and. urged his suit,
and that she accepted him against the wishes
‘ of her father; that he had no money to be
married with, and that she gave him a $20
bill; that they purchased gloves at a store in
Brewster's; that they drove to the residence
of Rev. J. J. Dean and were married. Rev.
Mr. Dean being called upon is doubtful-of
the Identity of Merritt, though he thinks he

Mary. The latest development is the arrest
of_ Memtt on the charge of_ abandoning his
