Dropping in at J.

P.

BreaBan's, yes­

Sow rent, "doing his own cutting, and other economical expenses, enables him to manufacture gents' wear at very reasonable prieea, and the garments are wall metis Tfcia is why his tailoring house has steadily grown in popularity.

The eccentricity of Louis of Bavaria lias broken out in new form. His palace is now closed all day, and opened from sunset to sunrise. He breakfasts about dusk, dines at midnight, and sups at dawn.. ... ... ,...1 .......

A stage robber was recently sentenced to State prison for ten years. The prospect of so long an Imprisonment didn't appear to weigh upon him much, but he regretted that, owing to the enterprise of the country, there would probably bono stages to rob at the close of his term.

An astonishing verdict was that which sends the Derrance brothers of New Orleans to prison for man slaughter instead of to the scaffold for murder. The three prisoners sought out Edwin C. Mix with the avowed purpose of killing him, and took his life, because he had spoken insultingly to their sister.

Bookkeeper Kee»e, of tke National Bank, of Virginia, on being rallied by tho President about a big patch on his trowsers, remarked that he could dress better if his salary was larger. This would have led to an increase had it not been discovered that the fellow was an einbetxler to the amount of 920,000.

A New Hampshire farmer recently agreed to sell his farm for 92,000, but when the day came be told the expectant purchaser that his wife was In hysterics about the trade and he "guessed he'd have to back out."

He presented proof to a Grand Jury thai the threatening document had been voted by the Crnsadteff, aad they were indftcfeed*

One of the great secrets of Mr. Blaine's popularity is that he haa along memory for names and deeds? A gentleman connected with journalism daring the war was Introduced to Mr. Blaine thirteen years after he had written an account of a battle in the far West. He was greatly astonished to find Sir. Blaine drawing him aside with the re-

mark, Yon are the man

I

have been

^rfolilng to see for years," and then asking him if a trivial incident mentioned in the account as published was strict^ true* The implied doubt conveyed no affront the young man was too much llattered by the fttet that Speaker Blaise remembered him an the author of the story to feel the slightest insult.

At the last reception at the While home Senator Bruce and wife, Frederick Douglass with two ladies, malting five colored persons, were among the noteworthy guests. It is reported that "there were no persons of the party more courteously treated in every respect, and Senator Bruce and his wife were almost constantly holding a little levee of their own, scores of the moat distinguished people, democrats as well as republicans, southern gentlemen as well as northen, and members of the diplomatic corps, paying their respects and soliciting inintroducton. It was asocial triumph for the race to which they belong." Who says the world does not move.
