A Thief was Left in the Sofa.
nce
What appears to be a new, clev-
er scheme for robbing a house in
broad duylight was discovered in
New York, Tuesday, amoug those
who reside in the fashionable part
of East Seventy-sixth screet. A
furniture wagon bearing no name
was driyea upto the residence of
Nathan Hoffheimer. A sofa was
taken out by the two men in the
wagon, and although the servants
knew nothing of the furniture be-
ing ordered, they allowed it to be
taken into the house. Three or
four hours later the men and fur
nitare wagon came back. The
men explained that a mistaké bad:
been made ; that the sofa was nos
ordered by Mrs.- is eimer, bat
by another person- They offered
many apologies to the servant for
the ostupid blunder.� Later in
a spell with her, anT so she kinder
left. Mary felt it pretty keen: oI |
the evening a search, of the room/
y. clagi of animals
carelessness and crusity on the
part of drivers as tle livéfry
horse. Many of the people who
bire horses know nothing about
driving or caring forthem; many.
others, since they. do not own
unesen, care nothing about any
injary to them provided. they. do
uot have to pay for them, and
still another class takes pleasure
in driving them at the top of
their speed as long as they can -
sg, regardiess of their distress.
Then there are the dranken
drivers,- reckless of everythiny,
ithe drivers who want to race with
everyone who come along, aad
the people vut for a oguod time,�
and whose idea is to oletTr go.�
There are people who over-
driye, who do not water, who
water when the horse is overheat-
ed, who do not blanket, atid- oth-
ers who commit all remaining
kinds of offences against horse-
flesh"the one idea being that
since the.horse is not their own
it donTt make much difference.

the neighborhood called him

treated him rudely. One day
three of them, to use their own
eipression, oput up a job on
him.� .
They filed into the shop with
an sir of importance, and one of
them demanded :

A story at the expense of the
expense of the Appalachian
Mountain Club of Boston is re-
lated in Happy Thought. An ex-
cursion party from the club, it
appears, had gone to a rural part
of the State, and in default of
sufficient hotel accommodations,
some of the members were ob-
liged to seek quarters in a farm-
hotse. } ,
Simplicity was the order of the
day. Everything was scrupe
lously clean, but there was a nat-
ural absence of some of the luxa-
ries of high-priced city hotels.
Some of the ladies of the party
discovered that there were no
keys in the locks of their rooms,
and waited upon the farmerTs
wife-
That good woman was sur-
prised.
oWhy,� she said, owe donTt usa-

A Frenchman, having eaten

was so delighted with it that he

gave her 3n enthusiastic account
of the delicacy.
Not long afterward the dessert
came on the table in a soup
