A Dutchninn In Trouble.
A fow days ago, in Boston, Kreitz meyer
Von Sclilngle was arraigned in the munici
pal court for soiling beer. When told that
the judge had fined him flO and costs, he
came out from behind the bar of the courts
and said : " Now just you listen mc oud.
I ' keeps ono loetle places, von lager beer
unn eigars, und I vas a couple ov months
back in my schtore von day, ven a nize
gentlemand corned in und tells me of I
keeps dot places. I say : 1 Yes, sir, und
my name is Kreitzmeyer Von Sclilngle.'
He write it down in a small book, and in
about a minute he vent oud. Bharley, a
d d schmart veller vas in dere, und he told
me, ' of I dond kuowed me who dot veller

'Dot's a Schate polices,' und says I vas a
tamm vool dot I didn't see him.' I told
Bharley I 'did see him.' But Sharley say,
'dot I don't tumble to him, und said ven

'I vant to see him,' and if the cop tumbled
I would be air right. So ven the cop comes

'Look here, polices, I vant to see you and

Early Railroading.
A writer in the Hartford Courant gives
reminiscences of railroading in Connecticut
forty years ago, which are interesting :
When the Hartford and New Haven Road
was first opened it had very meagre facili
ties ; the road bed was poor, had only strap
rails, which were nil the while curling up
and running through the car floors, the
cars were small and the locomotives weak.
In fact, it didn't take much to block a
train in those days ; somotimes an inoh of
snow on the rail would do it. Henry C.
White, one of the first conductors of the
road, tells how he and tho baggage master
used to sit in front of the locomotive, one
on each side, and brush off the snow from
the rails with a broom as the train Blowly
crawled along. Each had a pail of sand,
and sprinkled a handful on the rail when
necessary. The driving wheels (engines
bad only one pair then) used to slip round
and round, and torment them almost to
death. On one occasion a train got stuck
on the Yalesville grade by one inch of snow
and the wood and water gave out before
the locomotive could overcome it. At last
they got out the neighbors, yoked four
pair of oxen to the train and drew it, oxen
, and all, into Meriden with flying colors.
In the early days of the road the stage
i coach drivors used to regard the cars -with
' great contempt. - Indeed, thirty years ago
the passenger trains were three to four
hours on the road to New Haven, and the
stage coaches went in about the same time
Superintendent Davidson remembers rid
ing with bis father in a carriage drawn by
two horses, which had a race with a pass
enger train near Wallingford, where the
turnpike and railroad are parallel for three
or four miles, and during all that time the
1 carriage kept even with the traiu. ' ' .
' A Schoolmistress Brains a Pupil.
The Eldora, la,, Ledger of last week says:
' Mr. Braitb, mail carrier between Grundy
Centre and Union, brings tidings of a fatal
case of punishment by a school teacher.
His story is that on Wednesday of last week
a school mistress in Fairfield township un
dertook to chastise one of her pupils, a boy
about 15 years of age.
' The boy made a fierce resistance, and
1 the tide of conflict began to set in against
' the female disciplinarian. Gathering a
heavy chair which was near, she lifted it
high over her head, and with a sweeping"
master stroke" brought it down npon the
' devoted bead of the recalcitrant student.

istence at a single blow.
