I wasn?t a tramp, bat r had to be­com e next thing to one in d sense.

;'W ith my having beeu 111 and out o f work for months,*, with .my being penni­

le s s and soeriy and discouraged,. with m y askiug for a meal here and n bed' there as I tramped tbe highways be­tween London and Liverpool, no one could be blamed for sizing nip up as a “ professional” and tfenting m e-accord­ingly. I made no complaint o f that..

; W hat I complain o f .is ti.ie vindictive­ness o f tbe English law, its readiness; to do up a man simply because lie may be poor and unknown... Once .let tlie law lay bands on you; and it is almost a crime to declare yotii’ innocence o f the olfensc charged. , A thousand men will declare your guilt where oi:e will dare to.doubt it.

One night, in ihe county o f W arwick, I came upon a farine<r who iiad ludiher Wife nor.children, lnit was living alone on his small holding. Ills nhme Was Ilblborno, aiid, though gruff at first, lie: finally gave me a hearty supper- ancb

, the privilege o f .passing the night In Ids barn. When supper'.was finished and lie had beard iny story, he offered me a pipe, and we sat at bis door and an’iok- ed and ciialted- for an hour. It was agreed th a t! should .turn to. next morn-,

.ing and w ork with ldm in Ids fields for. half a month. W hile wo were chatting a neighboring farm er named Saunders came up and baited for live minutes, aud two others piissed on tbe highway nnd saluted nplborno with a good evening., it was 10 o’clock before I went to the. barn, and, being tired and sleepj\ I was soon, in dreamland. IIow long I had slept when I was awakened l>y the sound o f voices in anger I could not say, but I heard-wliat.seemed to be a quarrel between Ilolborue and anoth­er man. The vo lcc ’ o f the other was high pitched and*had o.catch in it. It

f was not a stammer, but a sort o f gasp, ; as If catching bis breath. .1 was not. fully aroused, nor did the quarrel con­tinue long.

It was just sunrise next mo'rhing 'when I woke up nnd turned out. The house was. only about lire rods away, mul after looking about to see i f Hol- 6 )rn e were In sight I moved along to the house.. Ills .dead body lay on the grass before, tho open door. H e had boon struck on the head with a club- and- killed by a single blow. I was upset by tiie discovery, as you may believe. . A fter touching Ids face and

U ndlug it cold I started off on tiie run for tho nearest farmhouse, half a mile away. Tlie farm er was milking ids cow nnd Ids'w ife preparing breakfast, but they returned with; me.ut once, and other neighbors were called, aiid a boy ,wns sent oil’ to tlie nearest police sta­tion. I told my story to the people, aud all, believed It, ns why /should they not when Saunders was among them ? . And yet when tlie police came their very IIrst move was to arrest me as tho murderer. . A tramp had pass­ed the. night in the bani. O f cou rse ; the trump .had lmirdorod the. favmet*,1.V I f you itgretr tJiat the police Svere asses, you w.lil agree -.that the o thers■ iwero fools; S o sooner was I charged jwith ‘ tlio nlurder than all lurued against me. Saunders suddenly re -. membereri that our conversation was. ■heated as he came up. The two who .passed by thought they ln*iirri’ m ousu ithreatening la n g u a g e .A farmer whom J ‘I iiad not seen at all the evening before " claimed to havo- conio -near eiiough to the house to h;ive heard-m e ask- llo l- ; iborne for. the loan o f 1 was an­gered, but not Cilghtpucri;, i uSkort •

making off, gone to lied, slept nil night and been the first to raise.an alarm In tho m orning?. And yet I was. marched- off to. Jail, nnd within three days .thore wasn’ t a . perfjoii in tlie county wiio doubted my gi|llt. •. /

I was examined by a ihagistrate who said L would.no doubt get my Just de­serts,’ and the police made no move w h atever to - find any other party. Even the jailer and turnkeys chuckled over file hanging that must result.. I toid o f having heard tin? quarrel, but they said I lied. I told o f tho arrange­ments made to go to work for Holborne In'the morning, lnit they smiled fn de­rision,

I was alniost ready for the assizes and tiie hanging when a person w hose: Identity. 1 do not know-to this di\y and who must havo been liioved by a spirit o f fairness sunt me a lawyer had gave that lawyer money, to work with. Pres­to change!' W hy, ii born fool could have picked up the threads o f the case nnd cleared me.. H^ithin six hours a ft - or I had told the lawyer o f tlie quarrel and tiie man with.ihe cateh in ids vohte they had the murderer spotted. Ills name, was Jamison, and the cptarrel was over the lease of the farm, ami tlie club -w ith which be had delivered the b)!m\ having lost his -temper, lnit not meaning to kill, was found fn Ids house. More tban that, lie broke down ami ilia de a full eonfesslon, aud when the assizes came, on be stood In the dock in my place. Nevertheless in set­ting me a.t liberty the , ju d ge-d id it grudgingly and wiili a warning that

m y crimes inust sooner or later lind me out, ami I was scarcely d ea r o f tlio courtroom when the humiliated and chagrined police overhauled- mo and said: / . .

“ It is just possible tliat yoii did not com m it this crime, but only because somebody else goL aliead o f you. W e know you had plimiied to do it and are a dangerous m an.to;be roaming about, and If you are not outsUK-the county by sundosvn you shall be run in on sus- pleltui;4' . ' . ; <

IlIrilH-nnil T h e ir .Ratlin.Naturalists tell us that iii making

^tlieir toilets some birds use water only, some water and dust, avIiHe other j»re- fer dust and no water. Birds are not only nice lu the choice o f bath water, but .a lso very particular about the quality o f,tbe lr toilet dust.

W ild ducks, though. feeding by salt water, prefer to bat lie in fresh wa ter ; pools, and will IIy. long distances in- kinri to running brooks and ponds,’ where they . preen : and dress their, feathers in the early hours o f the pioruing. Sparrows bathe often, both In water and in dust. They are not so particular nbotit the quality o f watOr as about tlie qnaiity o f the dust. Tbe city sparrow must take n water*bath where lie can*get It. Road dust, tlie driest and lliies.t possible, suits 1dm best. Partridges' prefer dry loam. They, like’ to scratch out tlie soil from under the £rusa and till- their feathers with cool earth. . •..M ost.bjrds are fiMul o f ashes. Take

I le WrtN S iiiicr«(lllo c iN .-.l ie was a big, hearty workingman,

nnd when a spare, thin little man en­tered the tram car, stumbled and sat upon him he said In reply:to the little iiiau’s apologies;

“ Don’t trouble, sir; It’ s ail right: There’s no,'arm done.”

When we saw the big man a week: later, we .were shocked at tlie change In him. He seemed to have shrunk to half bis form er bulk.

"“ Why. wlmtev'er’s tiie matter*?” we exclaimed.. / ‘You remember that little man wot sat on me iu tlio train last M?eek, sIV?”

“ Yes.” -" -**. “ Well, It's.nll through 'lui I’ m wnstin away like this!”

“ Preserve .us!” w e cried. “ IIow? W hy?” ' ...

The shrunken giant wrung his -hands In despair. .

“ I found out. next day,” .he groanc.d; “ that'V was the coroner. • An *e sat on me! I’ m shuperstlshus, nn it’s- lookln ahead I nui. Oh, Lor’ !” —Loudon Mall.

and at social fuuetions at Washington Is a weighty one in olHclal circles, but once upon a time there was a western senator whose w ife thought very light­ly oil this subject. Slie was in W ash­in gton -for a.;good. time, and she re-: solved to haye it without bothering about precedence;. T lils . fearless little woman gave a dinner on one occasion, und wlien It w as time to get her guests tyom. the drawing room into the dining room she said: ;''••• ■

“ There Is some precedence about all this, but I. don’t,know wliat it-Is. ,liist; shoo out to dinner, every one o f you, and sit down anywhere you please.”• This stroke o f western illplonaicy worked perfectly.'—Kxcliange. . ,

Tho v.otors o f Neptune township are reminded o f the annual school meeting next Tuesday evening at 7.30 o^lock, in the Ocean Groye sdliobl ibuilding, notice o f which appears in our adver Using columns. iBesides voting for an­nual appropriations for scfliool pur­poses, fixed this year at $21,500, three members o f the Board o f Education are. to be e lected /for three years, the term s oC Trustees ^Larrcibee, T ilton and Garrabraht.-having expired.. 'It Is un­derstood tlmt'Messrs.

Mr. Lar- rabeo, we are 'told, finds his tim e so mudlt taken tip with other matters that iio finds it impossible .to givo attention t o the duties o f a trustee,, consequently 'ho Oias declined to stand for another term. The name o f Dr, Brndner, of Bradley BpaclV, has been suggested, to succeed Mr. Larnubee. Mr.- Bradner will tVo nicely, 'lie is* a live man, i.nd is greatly interested in. the township schools. , . ...

The amount o f the school appropria ition asked for this year, $21,500, . is $2000 above that o f last year. Taxpay­ers w ho m ayb e inclined to believe that “ comparison® are-odious,'* are remind­ed that the increased amount Is .asked -.mainly for additional teachers, which lire necessary because o f the. larger number o f .children to be taught and the extcnsl6dj o f ‘ the ‘ thrcc:year High 'School course to four years. .More money Is also needed 'for. fuel, text books and stationery supplies. The items o f the full budget arc as follows: Teatfhevs*' salaries, $12,000; janitors' salaries,- $3100; fuel, $1400; text books and supplies, $1500; •construction and repairs, $1500; current expenses, $2000. These are the Items the voters will be asked to pass upon. Everybody in-, tcrested iii school matters Should.make it a .point to attend this meeting.

It will be a painful surprise to nlany o f her Ocean G-rov.e 'friends, as it was to a large circle in her native city, t o hear o f the deaith o f Mrs. Ellen H. Olei^hon, residing at 2108 E ast'Cum berland street, Philadelphia. The sad even t‘occurred on. Jamuary 30t*li, 1901.

Mrs. M erslion. 'for a score o f years past has been .a regular summer visitor ac Ocean Grove, and her amiability o f Charaeiter w o n .the esteem and affection o f a ll. with Whorti she formed an acqun'initance.' - ’ :

dler family cottage tent in the vi- cinity of. Mt. Zlou W ay and Phllndel plila avenue, in the rear o f the Taber­nacle; during all these years has been itho favorite resort of. a cheerful com pariy.' to. whose entertainment and hap­piness she ministered wiith unwearying jrillcitude, and mbtUierly kindness and care. It was no ordinary delight to all her neighbors anil friends in that, locality t o welcom e her return every

.year. They’, often heard the morning hymn and the voice o f prayer around b er family altar. ' ' • '

A t the age Of 1G she became an ac­tive and devoted 'm em ber o f . the •Methodist Episcopal church, and for the .past 38 years held her conneotion with the Snmmerfleld congregation, where she adorned the . doctrines o f Christ lier. Saviour, and. witnessed

tgood profession. ;•Prepossessing In m anner-and ap­

pearance, warm a n d . steadfast in her friendships, and benevolent In her dis­position. sbe was beloved far beyond the ordinary degree, by her kindness in tho church and by the com m unity at large. How her kindly face and cor­dial greeting w ill be missed at Ocean Grove! .

*Her Illness was o f but tavc* weeks ODhtinuance, during which she was ■blessed]j- sustained, and saved from all fear as to the result. ‘As the lamp o f life began to burn dimly, fdie asked the Tleavenly Fathor to prolong her .stay .for a few m ore days, for a certain pur­pose, and lier prayer was answered. Then to -her devoted' .daughter.uMrs. Merian A. Engle', she 6a1d her heaven- ly manslton was all ready. Commend­ing lier dear ones, husband and chil­dren, to talce bold o f God bjr living falOli, an'd 9inging witli them, “ I shall soon be at homo over there,“ she pass­ed joyfu lly away,' praising the Lord with her last breath, fo r all His loving kindness to her, through the clouds and sunshine, o f a happy life, and for tlio hope o f a blissful Immortality.

Tier funeral was largely attended on Sabbath afternoon, February 3. Tho services were conducted by her pastor, Ttevs. TC. Turner and Dr. John W. Say­ers. The. intermen.t followed In lOhst Cenar-Hiil Cemetery, A. \V.
