NO MORE 50-CENT NOTES.
THE COMMISSION DECIDE TO ACCEPT ANY
CHANGE THAT ISN'T COUNTERFEIT.
The arbitrary rule enforced at the trates
on the opening day, of requiring the pay
ment of a fifty-cent note or silver piece as
iuc umy iee lor aamission, has been dis
pensed with or modified, so that ail pay
visitors to the grounds can now enter upon
presenting fifty cents' worth of money in
notes or specie of any amount. Two quar
ters of a dollar or five ten-cent notes have
as much potency in gaining entrance as had
at first a silver half dollar alone. Where
several persons entering are paid for by
on of the party, the turnstile keeper will
receive the aggregate amount for the whole
number, but must not be expected to make
change. Thus, a two-dollar bill will admit
four persons, but where the party consists
of an odd number the exact amount of the
extra tiftv cents must be furnished.
Knew What He Was Hugging.
A couple from the country came to the
city yesterday, procured a license, and were
married in due form. They left on the
;fteriKjon train for home. They attracted
the attention of every passenger by their
lavish dsiplay of affection. The young man
kept his ami tirht around the bride's waist,
a if he was afraid she would vanish before
he knw it ; and she didn't seem to care if
he hugged her right along for half a day.
She was so terribly homely that everybody
wondered how he could love her, and by-and-ly
he seemed to think that an explana
tion would be in order. He borrowed a
chew of tobacco of a man near the door,
and remarked : '-I'm going to hug that
girl all the way heme, though I know she
isn't purty." '-I wouldn't' briofiy respond
ed the man. ;And that's where you'd fuel
vcurself,'' continued the voung man.

Eow a Horse Captured a w on.
From the Rarrie ( CanaJUi) Gazette
Mr. John Davis a farmer in Sullivan
township, Grey county, owns a horse which
has a habit of getting out of its pasture
field. The other night the farmer, as au
experiment, tied the horse's fore feet to
gether, and left him, hoping that his scheme
would cure the horse of, or at least prevent
him indulging in, his bad habits. That
niht a rack of wolves visited the neigh
borhood, their howls being plainly heard by
the occupants of Mr. Davis' house. In the
morning, however, they had disappeared,
and the farmer having business some dis
tance away, left to transact it. His child
ren, going to school, had occasion to pass
by the pasture field in which was the
breachy horse, and, remembering the visit
of the wolves during the night, they went
in to look after the horse's safety. There
was the animal, right enough, apparently,
but standing in a singular position away off in
the field. The children approached seemcl
more strange. At last they boldly came
up close, and discovered the cause of the
animal's strange condition. A large gray
wolf was under his fore feet, pinned down
to the ground, so to speak, by the cliain
fettering the horse's limbs, and secured in
such a "away that escape was impossible.
The plucky horse had evidently been at
tacked by the savage brutes, and after a
gallant light he had not only routed his as
sailants, but managed in this singular way
to capture one. .No one being around to
relieve the horse, he had to hold his cap
tive till Mr. Davis returned five hours
when the wolf wa3 dispatched, his scalp
taken to a magistrate, the bonus got for,
it, and the brave horse treated to au extra
feed of oats. With the exception of a few
bites on the neck, '-the horse that captured
a wolf" came out of the battle compara
tively urj injured.
The prisoners in the Luzerne county
jail who planned an escape by an assault up
on tho warden and his assistant, but were
frustrated in their designs, seem, it is said,
greatly chagrined. Cut they have confes
sed the plot which some twenty of them
were directly interested, and as many more
were expected to assist.
The importance of witnesses being
promptly in attendance at court was shown
in Heading on Tuesday by some twenty or

costs of the attachments.
Tlie bitter contest in Connecticut over

Carnum appears to have superior political

Can any of our sportsmen beat this
tough story from the Canadian Farmer
about a man named Candle v. who went to
St. Mary's bay geese hunting. Seeing a
moose on the opposite shore he fired, and
at the same moment a porpoise leaped from
the water, and the bullet killed both it and
the moose. The porpoise floated to the
shore, and the hunter used it as a raft to
paddle across to the moose. There he
found the buttet, after killing the moose,
had gone into a hollow tree in which was a
store of wild honey, which was flowing
through the hole made by the bullet.
Reaching for- what he thought was a stick
to plug up the hole, he caught a rabbit by
the leg. Rather startled, he threw it
violently from him, and struck a covey of
eighteen pat ridges, kiil-thcm all.
A few days ago Judge Handley, of Lu
zorne county, rendered a decision which
will be of general interest if it stands. It
seems that Fred. House, a minor, enlisted
and went to the war during the late rebel
lion. Ills local bounty amounted to $300,
and of this sum he sent home $243. Upon
the return of the young man his father re
fused to give him the sum, on the ground
that, as he was a minor, he had no right to
it. The Court ruled that bounty was not
wages, but a gratuity, and as such the
father had no control over it. It also ruled
that where a minor makes a contract for
his services on his own account, and his
father is cognizant of the fact, and makes
no objection, there is an implied assent
that the son shall have his earnings, and
unless there is a design to defraud the
father's creditors, the earnings will belong
to the son.
