Mother—What in the world keeps you out so late at nights? Son—Only watching the boys and others that have got "loaded" "brace up. Mother What know you about drinking. Do you imbibe? Son—No. I take nothing stronger than ginger ale or anything weaker than water. But those hard working fellows at the Nail and Car works come up Main street for the preservation of their health. They stop into an olllce where they exchange greetings with every thing that is "brown on the turf," meoting often a councilman in a saloon and the result is they get "buckeyed." Mother And what is being "buekeyed." Son -English plain, means getting drunk. Catch you on? Mother
Then what do they do? Son—To sober up they have to go to that Spider's Nest, kept by Peter X. Staff. Take a draught of his straight good bought direct, pure Kentucky copper distilled whiskies, then they can stand erect, go home straight, sober as a judge and go to work in the morning. MotherWhere is this place at? Son —Old Cobweb llall. corner Main and Canal streets.

A QUEER HOUSE.
One of the queerest habitations in south Jersey, probably, is to be seen along the line of the New Jersey Southern railroad, a .short distance from its junction with the Pennsylvania railroad at Whitings. It is a dismantled pas3engar car of type long since obsolete, and which formerly did duty in the palmydays of the Camden and Amboy railroad. In length it doet not differ from many of the cars now in use, and has a doormat either end, as well as on one side. The paint has long since worn off, but the wood work is still in a fair condition.
For several years past this car has been used as a residence by a thrifty Irish family, who have divided up the interior into three rooms, and live there as comfortably as possible the year round. The proprietor surveyed it with a look of complacency on Sunday as he remarked: "Yes, that's been my home for a good many years now, and it's a heap site better than most houses. The never leaks, and it's no trouble to keep warm the coldest day in winter. And here's another good thing—there ain't no near neighbors. That's one reason why I came out here in the woods neighbors got too thick where I was, and so I got out. Nothing like it, I tell you. No rent to pay and no taxes, as I "live on the land that belongs to the railroad company. I don't want anything better."
EDITORIAL FIGHTS OF LONG AGO, Editors laugh over the shots they give and receive nowadays. In the daya when the World was owned by Manton Marble and the gifted Ivory Chamberlain was its chief editorial writer, the paper often containod the fiercest invective against the Tribune, as well as the most caustic personal criticism of Mr. Greeley and yet Mr. Chatnberlin and Mr. Greeley were personal friends. There never was a more pathetic lament, never a more remarkable editorial than that which Mr. Chamberlain wrote for the World on the death of Mr. Greeley--a wild outburst of grief, a touching revelation of self-reproach for not having more deeply sympathized with Mr. Greeley on the death of his wife and in his other sore trials—the manly grief and tears in print of one of the most scholarly of editors taking the reader into his confidence in the momentary disregard of editorial forms. And I believe it was the attention which this remarkable editorial attracted that led Mr. James Gordon Bennett to retain Mr. Chamberlain for editorial duties on the Herald at a salary of 81,000 a month. [New York Mail and Express.

INDIANA LIQUOR LAW.
A petition asking tho supremo court for a rehearing of the Leb Knowitz case has been filed by the attorney general. In this case a decision was reached by tho court which the prosecuting attorneys say will make it practically impossible to convict a saloon-keeper of illegal sales of liquor. A witness testified that he purchased liquor both morning and evening, and tho stato complained liquor had been sold on a given day—July 4— but refused to elect whether conviction was asked for the morning or evening sale. The Supreme court holds that election should have been mado. Liquor men are very jubilant over the ruling, while the officials believe that it will do more toward hindering an enforcement of the law than any now in the books.
NOT A STATESMAN.
When Senator Hearst came up to the desk yesterday to be sworn in he had his hands in his pockets. "He'll never bo a thoroughbred statesman," remarked Colonel Mussey in tho press gallery. "Why not?" asked a Californian, with some indignation at the apparent reflection. "Because he's got his hands in his own pockets instead of other people's," remarked the colonel, and went o:i making notes. [Washington Critic.
