CHAPTER I.—THE SOFT SIDE OF A PLANK. ••In the engine house at the new aqueduct” was the charge against Whitney, of the Second Pre cinct. He was found with his coat and hat off and lying down, at 12:55 A. M. “ The complaint is true, part of it,” said Whitney. •• I went in there and took off my coat and hat and was going to the water closet. I came back and was taken with cramps. I had cramps all that even ing; I could not stand up.” •• He made no excuse,” said the roundsman. *' I saw him before that. He went and picked up a plank and some waste and lay down, fixing himself up for the night. I was within three feot of him. I told him to take up his plank and walk. He took his coat down from a nail and got out.” •• Didn't I say I had been taken with cramps ?” said Whitney. ••No,” said complainant. ‘'The roundsman had just brought him up in the wagon and left him at the relieving point. He wasn’t there two minutes when he took the plank to make himself comfort able for the night.” •'Here are three offenses against you, said the Commissioner—one, sitting down—each one proven against you, and you are but a short time on the force.” “The water is different up there from the city wa ter; that’s what gave me the cramps. I have been sick ever since.”' CHAPTER II.—WHISKY FOR THE ROUNDSMAN. The second charge was obtaining a bottle of whis ky worth $1.20 from Michael Garry, and ordering the same to be charged to Roundsman Smith. He denied the charge. Officer Roth, he said, got it for the roundsman, Roundsman Smith said a Pu 1110? cable to the house that one of the roundsmen had got a bottle of whis ky that he hadn’t paid for. He went up and saw Garry, and made the complaint. Michael Garry, living on Sedgwick avenue, said Whitney got the bottle of whisky in Roundsman Smith’s name. Whitney and Roth got about S2O worth of liquet in their own name that they didn’t pay for, and he stopped further chalking doWn. When they Came in and wanted some liquor, he s&id he chalked as high as he could —$12 lor the one and $8 for the o'tber. They asked him for a bottle, and said it would be to his benefit; it was for Rounds man Smith. They would see he paid lor it. “What time was this?” asked the commissioner. Two in the afternoon, on or about the 20th; I ain’t positive; I made no memorandum oi it.” “You made no complaint Of it at the time ?” “No; I was waiting to see if Would get paid for it” “ You made no request for the peyment ?” “ O. I have asked them a times; I wondered why the roundsman didn't pay. Smith came and asked if the liquor was got in his name, and I said yes.” •• Who got the whisky ?” asked Whitney. “You,” said Gafcry. ’•There’s where you are mistaken. Roth got the whisky. This man, Garry, I arrested a week ago last Sunday for violatihg the excise law. Since then he has come and made this charge against me.” Roundsman Smith said the charge was made against Whitney by Garry before he made the arrest for violating the Excise law. Roth said he and Whitney were out riding, and they stopped at Garry’s store and had a drink. He got the bottle of whisky and paid for it. That was somewhere in • June, in the afternoon. He paid twenty-five cents for the bottle—a soda water bot tle. They were in citizens' clothes, out together riding, nine or ten o’clock in the forenoon. “Do you know anything at all of Whitney pro curing liquor at that or any other time for the roundsman?” * •• No, sir; 4ie spoke to nle, and said he had been accused of it.” • CHAPTER III.—REVENGE. The charge was being off post Sept. 2, in Sedgwick avenue. He admitted the charge, it was about a block. A party ca'fiae and told him there was a muss in a boarding-house. When he went up the crowd had dispersed. This man’s place (Garry’s) was open, and be went in and arrested him for a violation of the Excise law. “Mr. Garry’s place,” said Capt. Sanders, " was quite a distance from this officer’s post. He couldn’t well see to this man’s place. He arrested him for violating the Excise law.” •‘As I understand it, hb was off his post but he ■claims he was attending to his duty, and you say he •couldn’t see it, but left his post to carry out re venge on this person, Garry ?” “ Yes, sir-” “ When he went to this place, Sept. 27, Sunday, 10 . ■at night, you think he eould not have seen this vio •lation of the law.” “ No, sir,” replied the Captain. “Did he find the place open at the time ?” “I don’t know. There is the gentleman he ar rested. It is the first time I have seen him to talk to. There is the officer stationed at the shanty, -close by. I questioned him and asked if he had •eeea any disorder at this man’s (Garry's) place. He -said he heard nothing, it was very quiet. He •neither saw nor heard any disturbance.” Officer Lambert sand; “Mr. Commissioner, I had not been more thau 200 feet from this party up to 10 Xor 11 o’clock. I was informed there had been ; troble, and I went to the man who keeps the board ing-house and took him out of ,bed and asked him if there had been any trouble, and he said no. The -captain asked me if there bad been any trouble, and I said no.” “ Is this where the arrest was made?” “It was a hundred feet from the boarding-house where lam stationed. Officer Abbott passed me five times during the evening, and spoke every i time.” “This place where he went to, is it visible from his post ?” “No, sir.” Officer Abbott*said he passed Lambert six times on Kingsbridgecoad. At twenty minutes past ten he asked him if there bad been any row. He said he had not heard of any. It was reported that Mr. Garry was locked up. “Was this place open in violation of the law ?” “ Not that I saw. At half-past nine we went up Sedgwick avenue. We went up the front stoop and tried to get in. We-were not allowed.” “ The place was open and two or three men were ;inside,” said Whitney. “All I desired to explain is there was no row there,” said Capt. Sanders. Lambert said he was not more than fifty feet from the place, and he was surprised that there had been an arrest. “ I was called off post,” said Whitney, “ and 1 made the arrest. “ Who called you 7” “ A party came to me.” “ Who was the party ? ' “ Some party on the aqueduct. I did not take his name—l did not think it necessary. I thought 1 was justified in leaving my post and making the arrest.” LOITERING. Dolan loitered around the corner of Thirty-first Street and First avenue an hour and twenty minutes. He thought he was justified in loitering around there that time. Not long ago a man there was “hung up” in the street and robbed of his watch and a woman was taken down to the dock and out raged. The - roundsman said there was no necessity to hang around there so long. There was an alarm •ot fire on the officer’s post and he never went near it. Dolan said he loitered around there in good faith. MISCONDUCT. Barry wa§ off post at Seventy-third street and avenue. After Roundsman Bach said ho \w 7ifld:make a charge, Barry said to the roundsman, ’• xou.make the complaint and with it.” “ ‘l.walked back,' said the roundsman and said, •What is the: matter, are you drunk ?’ ‘Yes, I am,’ iake.mein.’ I walked up to this citizen at Seventy, eecond street and the officer says, • Get all the wit nesses «you.want; if you have got that complaint, stick .’ I walked from Seventy-second to Seventy-third streets and ho followed me, keeping Abusing me. I turned around and said, ‘Barry, what provocation have I given you?’ He says, •You are drunk; if I wer<» roundsman, I would take you in.!’ ” Barry-said all be said to the roundsman was, “If you are .going to make a complaint, make it, I will beat you.; and he sent me back on post.” BAD DEBTS. Watson, of the Ninth Precinct, owed J. N. Creamar, florist, four dollars of a balance due for bouquets, which he refused to pay. “ What have you to say to that ?” “ I sent .a part of the money and he would not re ceive it. He wanted all or nothing. If he won’t take the money I can’t help it. Here is the gentle man he wouldn’t take the money from. ’ “ This bill has been owing since the 10th of August last year. When I sent a man of mine around he told him I needn’t send any more, he would pay when he got ready. Aft. r the complaint was made he sent two dollars, but the complaint had been made and I refused it.” “ Wouldn't it be as well to take two and trust to get the rest ?” “If he hadn't talked the way he did. But I won’t take an insult from any policeman ” “ He wants it all or nothing,” said Watson. “ What d es want with bouquets if he can’t pay for them ?” said Mr. Creamer. “ I give you ten days to settle this thing,” said the Commissioner. * “Look at me sitting here three hours for that paltry four dollars,” said Mr. Creamer in disgust. A dROCEK'S BILL. Sergeant Thompson was chargod with owing $32.33 for groceries t 6 Ferdinand Groth. The ser geant said he did not owe him a cent. Mr. Groth said he had sued him and obtained judgment. •‘ How long have you been in the grocery busi ness ?’\Asked the sergeant. “ Twenty years.” “ Did yyu ever have any complaint for being dis hnnost in ..keeping your books ?” again asked the i ergo nt. •• No, sir.** “ My wifbpgave your clerk a twenty-dollar bill to take ent now/Kiuch ?” “Six dollars.” “What did hc/Glo with the fourteen dollars ?” “He kept it,.And that reduced the debt to thirty, two d< liars.” “i should charge him with larceny, taking that .fourteen dollars ’from my wiie. I don t know any thing but what ay wife says. She got the money.” “These debts Lave been incurred by yourself and family. You are responsible for your family. ’J here isd&e judgment.of the court,” said the Com “ 1 let it go by default.” “ Then y&u are the sufferer.” “I went to the civil court—now I come here to get satisfaction,” said the grocer. “You will have to settle/ said the Commis sioner. A .DOCTOR’S BILL. Mitchell, of the Twentieth Precinct, owed Dr. Am brose sl4 for family .attendance. “If he will only give day and date for his visits And medicine, I’ll pay,” said Mitchell. “Will you acknowledge the debt is due if the dates <ire correct ?” “ Yes, sir.” “ It is here,” said the Commissioner. f( i Wftßt him to swear to hi® bijl 91 particular.®/’ He has sworn to it. You say the bill Ifl cor rect ?” “Yes, sir,” replied the doctor. The officer was ordered to settle tip- A CASH LOAN. Schneider, of the Twenty-fifth Precinct, w'as asked to pay Bernard Meyer for cash borrower. Judg ment with costs had been obtained. “I deny the charge that I reiused t'opay,” said Schneider. “ We offered to take the money in any way before we got the judgment,” said counsel. ' I saw him and said, • We don't want to make any trouble.’ He said he wouldn’t pay. Then I sent Mr. Meyer, and the officer said he wouldn’t pay. We are will ing to take it in instalments.” Mr. Meyer said ha went to the house and made a demand. The officer didn’t want to pay. “Officer, it doesnot seem to require any proof that you knew of this judgment against you,” said the Commissioner. “ Here is the judgment against you. You knew tho matter was belore the court.” *• How long have I been dealing with you ?” •' Nine or ten years ” “ Didn’t I always pay ?” “ Before.” “You are only charged with not paying this note?” said the Commissioner. The note was due since '79. He was ordered to pay it before submitting the case to tho Board. A TAILOR’S BILL. Bruen has owed tailor Levy a bill of $31.94, since ’Bl. He claimed that ttds dun was caused because he had changed bis tailor. Levy said that wasn't so; he wouldn't trust him. CLEAR CASH LOANED. Simpler, of the Tenth Precinct, owed a debt of $56.73 on which judgment was obtained by Mr. Scobi. He did not deny the debt, but the only demand on him had been made by a lawyer. He offered one of the lawyers $lO a month, but he wanted it all at once. •• This money was loaned,” said Mr. Scobi, “for the full lace of the note, no profit out of it. He promised to pay $lO a month. I understood he had sickness, that is why I have been so lenient. But for his trouble I would have been here long ago. I’ll take $lO a month.” On that promise the Case was suspended. In other cases the officers were ordered to settle up by tho first of the month. If they don’t the fine may be as much as the debt. Better by some means raise the money and cancel the debt, than pay the fine and still have the debt outstanding. BROOKLYN FIRE NOTES. POPULARITY OF THE COMMISSIONER —LA FRANCE VERSUS AMOSKEAG ENGINES—GOS SIP—COMMENTS, Etc. WORTHY OF ADVANCEMENT. The many friends of Commissioner Poillon are of late urging his candidacy for tho position of Regis ter. To say that he possesses unusual fitness lor the position would but feebly express the opinion of all who know him. In h s present capacity as Fire Commissioner he has shown himself to boa man of rare executive ability, as will be seen upon comparing the standard of the Fire Department of to-day with that of recent years. The intelligence of his possible nomination as Mayor was made known to the readers of this column some time since, and, so far as the reporter's observation ena bled him to judge, met with the hearty approbation ot the entire force. It is but fair, in this connection, to state that all firemen, irrespective of political sta tus, seemed willing to afford Mr. Poillon whatever assistance law in their power toward his advance ment to the position of Mayor of Brooklyn. It is true there were many who opposed bis nomination, but these were happily in the minority. It is now evident that to whatever position the present Cora' missioner may be elevated as a candidate, those who have prospered under his benign rue will show their gratitude in the silent though sincere evidence afforded by their suffrages in his behalf at tho coming election. RELATIVE QUALITIEH The recent visit of Superintendent Lynch and Captain Connell, of Engine Co. No. 9, to Elmira, has afforded a source of valuable information to fire men of this and adjacent cities. The reporter called upon both of the above-named gentlemen during the past week, in order to obtain their views as to the relative qualities of the engines manufactured by the Amoskeag and La Franco companies, Captain Connell, who is a practical engineer, act ed und-r tho direction of Superintendent Lynch, and during the trial made the following observa tions: Tho engine used was of the double pump pattern No. 2. The fuel used was hard coal, cost ing, in Elmira, less thau $2 per ton. Ten pounds of steam were made in two minutes, and in seven minutes the gauge indicated 100 pounds. With a water pressure of 300 pounds and with 140 pounds of steam, a stream of 340 feet was played through an inch and a half nozzle. With an Amoskeag en gine of the same build, and using cannel coal, cost ing sl6 per ten, the water gauge, at its best, indi cated but 260 pounds pressure. This, too, with 150 pounds of steam, and throwing a stream of but 270 feet through an inch and one-eighth nozzle. The difference in the throwing capacity of the two engines, together with the saving in the cost of fuel, should demand the attention of those bent upon retrenchment in the expense incident to the maintenance of the Brooklyn Fire Department. Both Superintendent Lynch and Captain Connell are loud in their praise of the Elmira Fire Depart ment. During their stay they were hospitably en tertained by Chief Walker and ex-Chief Callahan. i he latter is editor of an Elmira weekly paper, and readily afforded the guests all the courtesy peculiar to Bohemians of the press. Superintendent of Fire Alarm, Ellett, graciously afforded the visitor, an insight to the workings of his department, and the stay of the latter was by the united efforts of all three of the gentlemen mentioned rendered one of the most pleasant in tneir experience. BUSILY ENGAGED. Work in the Telegraph Bureau seemed more than usually brisk during the past week. Lineman Mc- Glone was detailed as assistant battery man. Line man Riley was busily engaged in locating trouble, and after a laborious search discovered a broken wire at the house of Truck No. 2. The force is busily engaged in making necessary repairs inci dent to recent storms. The poles for the new ex tension have not as yet been placed in position. REPAIRS. The detailed mechanics under Captain Goodwin are making gradual improvement in the appear ance of-certain houses. At the shops, Superinten dent Lynch has been putting the finishing touches to the wagons for the newly appointed district engineers. They will be in running order by 8 iturday next. Engine No. 21, having had her hind axle straight ened, was restored to duty on Wednesday last. On the same day Engine No. 19 was received for repairs to her boiler. The blacksmiths are busy reining spare wheels. In the harness department Captain McGronan has completed the dashers and trimming of the shafts of the new engineer’s wagons, and has performed a very creditable job. With his assistant he is now hard at work on new bridles. The reporter has been overwhelmed during the week by queries as to why the members of the Brooklyn Eire Department cannot inaugurate a barbecue similar to that held in New York on Alon day last. In reply we would state that the ques tion is a poser. Judging from the case of a recently deceased member of the Volunteer Association, we should say that Brooklyn firemen are rather parsi monious. and lack enterprise. The deceased mem ber referred.to refused payment of fifty cents,which would have entitled his family to SIOO at his death. Produce your ducats and purchase the ox seems to be the only advice affordable iu this instance. It is suggested by a number of prominent mem bers of the department that a descriptive list be Kept of each fireman, to be used as a means of iden tification in the event of the possible loss of an in dividual who may be partially burned, and whose identity may be destroyed save by some particular mark or scar. The idea is not a bad one. GOSSIP. Ex-Alderman-Gleeson, of Long Island City, visited the repair yard on Wednesday last. Sheriff Farley and Superintendent Lynch both visited the barbecue grounds on Monday last, and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Orator Mac, of Engine Company No. 9, has de clared in favor of Hill for Governor. We w<re led to believe that he was a stanch Prohibitionist. “Doc” Treadwell, of the veterinary hospital, is the only .colored man in the department. “Doc” is a veteiau fireman, and is not only a trusted em ployee, but is also noted for his uniform politeness and attention to visitors to his sanctum. Capt.-Connors, of Truck No. 5, is spending a brief vacation with nis family. Carroll, of the same company, was visited by the reporter during the week and found to be recover ing from his recent serious illness. The inmates of the Good Samaritan wore aroused from their slumbers one evening recently by the outcries of an inebriated individual who frantically exclaimed, “Helio! hello!” The latter evidently mistook the place for fire headquarters and was told to go to hell-o himself. He must have been a tele graph man looking for trouble, eh ? Mum s the word. The new fireboat will soon be launched, although it will be some days before she will be painted and have her machinery placed in proper position. Now that she is built, those heretofore loudest in their cla m as able-bodied seamen are as mute as mice. What’s up, boys, are you afraid of sea-sick nes< ? TELEPHONE. “Hello, E. D.” . “Hello! Hello!” “What is transpiring in your midst ?” “Nothing in particular. Dispatch. The boys of Truck No. 6. have polished up things generally since Captain Haley took command. The latter is an old and experienced fireman and is opposed to any un necessary show of authority. Tom says the man who wishes to play the lord in this country has no business here, and should remove to Europe or Canada. Over at No. 15’s house the boys are all well except Campbell, who reported sick on Thurs day last. The Ewen street boys seem discontented. Few visit these quarters, which render them some what lonesome. Connolly, of Truck No. 6, will go on vacation to-morrow (Monday). On Thursday last George Tompkins, formerly foreman of Engine Company No. 9. and Assistant Engineer of the Vol unteer Department, was buried from his late resi dence. The members of the Exempt Association of the E. D. attended the funeral. The deceased was very popular, and at one time was considered a first class fire laddie. There is nothing of interest trans piring at headquarters. The Volunteer Firemen will parade as soon as their headquarters is com pleted.” Quite a large attendance of Brooklyn firemen was obs rved at the parade of the firemen at New Lots, cn Monday last. The boys desire to return thanks for the hospitalities extended them during their visit. The rumpus out at No. 22’s house promises to be more serious than was at first anticipated. This company has a very pleasant location, with but comparatively few fires to attend. It is supposed that having little to do, they fell to quarreling among themselves in order to break the monotony of their lives. It might be well to suggest the trans fer of the old men in the department to the outlying engines this Winter, and to replace them on work ing companies by the hot biooded youths who are unable to appreciate a soft snap. Next week we shall visit Gowanus and Smoky Hollow, in order to superintend the cutting in of our telephone wire, and to obtain the current news in the localities mentioned. ♦ ■ « i ♦ Important.—When you visit or leave New York city*, save baggage, expressage, and $3 carriage hire, and stop at the Grand Union Hotel, opposite Grand Central Depot. 600 elegant rooms, fitted up at a cost of one million dollars, $1 and up ward per day.

There died in Morrisania (now the Twenty-third Ward of the city of New York), on September 29th, > one of the old Land Reformers of this city, Mr. Ar thur B. Hauptman. He was an associate of George Evans, John Windt, John Commerford, John H. I Keyser, Wm. V. Barr, Benj. Price and other mem bers of that band who fought for land reform and j homestead exemption, when the doctrine was not j popular, especially with politicians. » His remains were interred at Woodlawn on Frl- , day, October 2d. Rev. T. R. Harris, of St. Paul’s | Episcopal Church, read the funeral service at the residence, and paid a tribute to the memory of the t deceased. He spoke of his genial nature, generous disposition, and of his marked traits of character as f an earnest friend of education, and particularly of i his love for the little ones. Morrisania Lodge, No. t 171, I. O. of O. F., of which he was a charter mem ber, and members of Goethe Lodge, No. 193, I. O. of O. F., celebrated the rites of the Order of Odd Fel lows at the grave. - He was born in Haverstraw, Rockland county, N. Y., March 18, 1808, and was a man of very de , cided character. He was a stern and energetic op ponent of secession, and had two sons in the army, j During the draft riots the mob was alter him; bis residence was mobbed. . In the early part of 1848 he was one of the men B who met at Military Hall, No. 193 Bowery, then a I j popular place for meetings, balls and military ■ > drills, for the purpose of purchasing a tract of land t near the city, to be divided into lots suitable for homes for mechanics, tradesmen and men of small capital. Jordan L. Mott, the father of the present head of the Mott Iron Works; Charles W. Houghton J ‘ and Nicholas McGraw were the comipittee appoint ed to take charge of the funds. To be brief, the thriving annexed district illustrates the results of I ’ their labors, and many who in 1848 pronounced the ’ scheme visionary, in latter years regretted their acute prophetic power. j ’ We recollect Hauptman in our younger days, and 1 then observed the fearless and independent traits of his character. His place of business was for many ’• ye&TB on the southeast corner of Broadway and Houston street. He was a descendent of old Knick erbocker families—his grandfather, Jacob Haupt man, was married in 1776 in the German Lutheran r ’ Church, which then stood on the corner of Frankfort > Patch. Tho site is now occupied by the Carleton 1 and William streets.near the present office ot the J)n?- 1 Hotel, and a certificate dated May 28 1778, and sign ed Mathews, Mayor, certifies that ne is one of the « firemen of this city. t Arthur's father, Jacob, Jr., was one of the pupils of Columbia College Grammar School, and was ap pointed one of the firemen of the city of New York on May 11th, 1801. Certificate signed Robert Ben -1 son, clerk. The Veteran Firemen’s Association would doubtless consider these certificates worthy 1 of careful preservation. Arthur B. Hauptman s mother was a member of the Van decar family, of Waterford, N. Y., who wore among the early settlers F of the country. The enterprising Up-Town News — a weekly journal • published at Morrisania—in an article on the de i ceased, mentions his having filled the offices of i Overseer of the Poor, Chief of Police and Justice of l the Peace, and, from what we knew of him, can say i that he was just the man for an emergency, asking f no odds nor tearing any. Peace to his ashes ! His i memory will be ever green in the hearts of many. i Can’t See tlie violle. 1 DAN’L SMITH PAYS S2O FOR A QUART OF MILK ’ The boys at the extreme northern end of the city , have fun of their own, but it is not always appre ciated. A party of young men got out at four j o’clock in the morning to go fishing. On their way to their morning’s sport they thought it fun to ’ r drink the milk left under the stoops of dwellings ~ that they passed. 5 A quart of milk, valued at eight cents, left by I Milkman Ingraham at No. 17 Lawrence street, was 3 drank by Dan’l Smith. Mr. Ingraham said he had j. just started on his route about four o’clock, when he saw a party of young men out rather early. This, he said, made him keep his eyes “ peeled,” as he had lost “lots ’of milk recently. He had just 1 got out of Lawrence street into Manhattan, when i he saw a party of four or five as he drove through • the street. In the distance he saw Dan’l lilt the ? quart bottle of milk that he had left and drink it, at i Lawrence street and Tenth avenue. r The defendant said he was a plumber. He and j his party started at 130th street to go on a day’s j fishing. One of a party not belonging to his party picked up the bottle of milk and drank it. That other crowd then ran away. The milkman came , up to whore he stood and charged him with the lar- • ceny of the milk. > “ He says he saw you drink it,” said the court. “ Ho perjures himself,” said Dan’l. i Richard Coyle, his chum, didn’t see the milk, and i of course didn’t seo it drank. i The court found Dan’l guilty, and charged S2O for 3 that quart of milk. i * ’ Kiling a, Witness. ‘ A GROWL ABOUT THE FRONT DOOR. ) There was trouble about the street door, No. 29 Harrison street. Honora Howard wanted it shut, 5 Tom Murphy wanted it open, they had words, and f Honora was slapped in the face. t “ Were you fighting that morning with Mrs. > Murphy about the door ?” asked counsel. “ We had words.” •• You had two or three fights that day ?” ’ “ Oh, dear no.” “ You had a fight with your husband ?” . “ Me. I never had a fight with my husband in my 1 life. The idea!” and Honora looked as she came • down from the stand as if it would be a treat to get her hands in the wool of the lawyer. - Maggie Murphy, the wife of the accused, said f Mrs. Howard was after getting her husband out of r prison. The hall door was shut, and she thought i there was no harm to open it, when Mrs. Howard i went for her, and her husband saved her. Mr. Murphy was discharged. t His IT’irst ' AND HE GOES TO THE ISLAND FOR THREE MONTHS. i Teresa O’Brien, residing at No. 403 West Thirty g eighth street, said she was turning the corner at Ninth avenue, when Thomas O’Brien, a stranger, - who stood on the corner with a lot of fellows, headed her off and said “Give me a kiss?” She said let me pass. He said no. When he could not press lips with her, he struck her on the mouth 1 with his fist, then on the nose. Dofendent said he was intoxicated at the time. ■ “ She says you attempted to kiss her ?” said the 8 Court. I “ It is my first offence,” said the fellow. ’’ “ Three months,” said the Court. ' Whenever and wherever diseases of a a choleraic type prevail, or there is cause to appre <, bend a visit from them, the system should be toned, Q regulated and reinforced by a course of Hostetter's „ Stomach Bitters, Perfect digestion and a regular s habit of body are the best safeguards against such t; maladies, and both are secured by this inestimable tonic and alterative. The Bitters are also extreme ly serviceable in remedying such disorders. If 3 promptly taken in bilious colic, diarrhoea and chol -0 era morbus, the disease is usually frustrated. In a diarrhoea cases it is only necessary to restore the J tone of the relaxed bowels, and this is one of the i_ specific effects of this medicine. Wind on the stom ? ach, heartburn, biliousness, nausea, headache, and ° other symptoms of disturbance in the gastric and hepatic regions are also speedily relieved by this excellent remedy. As a family medicine it is inval uable, since it promptly and completely remedies ■ those ailments which are of most frequent bccur ° rence. i- — ” law. 1— — a At a meeting of the Harlem Ten and » GROCERY CLERKS ASSOCIATION, Oct. 7th, Vice Presi dent Kogers offered the foilowing resolution : “ Resolved, That the 14th day of October being the date fixed in our By-Laws as the day upon which an election J of officers takes place, sa d election be held at our head quarters at 9:30 P.
