fore the-.writ of attachment could be served

on Louis by the officer, Louis got Wind-Of
what was being done, and walked quietly in
to Adauls’house. “I believe you have a little
bill of $4 against a former boarder who
used to work for me, and if you will pleaSe
give mea receiptin full, l’ll pay it." ’1he

The snow storm yesterday, was quite
severe in this locality and caused mubb'
inconvenience to pedestliansuind thehorse

Charlie Riley, of the Electric Light
Company, on Christmas eve bought a fine
chicken for his Christmas dinner, and also
went to Ed. Goldschmidt’s and purchased a
fine lamp. -On his way home, in some way,

his grip on the chicken loosened and, in his "

eagerness to save the fowl from falling, he
grabbed at it with both hands with such
precipitate haste that the lamp fell from hif
grasp and was shattered to fragments on- the
sidewalk. But he saved the chicken.

Iand'ord Gehebe, of the HotelfGehebe,
asI-s us to state that he is not in any wily
r sponsible for the filthy condition of the
borough tramp house, inasmuch as he
was only engaged to attend to the lockup,
and also to furnish fuel for. the tramp house.
He says that when he finds a tramp there
in the morning he makes the “gen tleman 01

sweep the den out. Be this as it may tie

for a hog, let alone a human being to slap

Burton, the “all hot” man, immortalized
himself on Christmas day by his enterpris—

crowd and disposing of his wares. He

quietly to a stone l'ence'close by the pond,
and, selecting a low place in the wall, delib-
