Wbat Was It ?
Yesterday morning, about day break'
persons living on Front, between Market
andOrange streets,were awakened by the
cries of "Help 1 Help 1" which proceed
ed from a woman who was being driven
hurriedly down the street in a carriage.
What occasioned the cries we could not
ascertain, nor were we able to discover
who the woman was. Wo have heard of
no one being kidnapped and can give no
cause for the singular behaviour.
Si James' Delegates- '

Burled A11T6
While one of the workmen was down
in the ditch on Front street connecting
the joints of the water works pipe a
crowd of eager-lookers on gathered on the
bank of the ditch, causing a small land
slide which buried the laborer and came
near frightening him to death, so to
speak. He was quickly pulled out and
was found tobe'unhurt, but badly fright
ened and somewhat mad.
The JohnsooHrotherr
ZicWhh Johnson and his brother,
John H. Johnson, who wera. a few days
ago up before hi3 Honor Mayor Smith,
are still at largs in this city. These two
little rascals were let off by His Honor
with the proviso that their mother would
send them out of town. She stated at
the time that she could send them to
some one in the country who wanted
them and seemed so anxious to get them
outjof.the city that his Honor suspended
judgment in their cases.
Zach Johnson is the little scoundrel
who was seen about two ' weeks ago as
saulting a little white girl on Chestnut
street. Why these little rascals are not
in the country or in jail we do not know'
but suppose that Mayor Smith will find
out the reason why their mother did not
fulfill her promise.
K Coroner Suing for Fees
Mr. E.J). Hewlett, Coroner of this
county, has brougnt suit against the
Board of County Commissioners to force
them to pay two claims he has against
the county for holding inquests over two
bodies. Mr. H. A. Bagg, Chairman of
the Board, holds the opinion that the
Coroner is appointed only to detect
crime and to hold inquests over murder
ed or drowned persons or persons who
come to a violent end. The cases for
which the Coroner claims fees are those
of two men who had received medical
attention and was under the care of phy
iciansat the time of their death.
Chairman Bagg claims that as there
was no - suspicion of foul play there
was no necessity of holding an inqcest,
and that tne Coroner is' not entitled to
the fee's which amount to $20.50. Mr.
Hewlett holds that as the cases were re
ported to him "aa sudden deaths" he
summoned jurors and held the inquest ac
cording to law, and is consequently en
titled to his fees. The case was tried
this morning before Justice Gardner.
Mr. M. Bellamy representing the prose
cution and Mr. F. H. Darby acting for
the County Attorney, CoL B. B. Moore,
who is confined to his house by sickness.
Justice Gardner gave a verdict in favor
of the defendant, whereupon Mr. Chair
man Bagg, through his Attorney, took
an appeal to the Superior Court.
LlDpincotl's Magazine.
Besides the usual variety of light and
entertaining reading, Lippincott's Maga
zine for May has some articles full of in
formation on subjects of general interest.
Thus, in a paper on the "House of Com
mons," the well-known magazinist, W.
H. Rideing, describes the general ap
pearance and arrangements, the iorms of
procedure, and other details that require
to be understood before we can have a
vivid notion of the great debates and
characteristic scenes of that ancient as
sembly, the prototype of all existing leg
islative bodies. In an article on "OysteiJ
Culture," W. Jj . G. ohands, who has
uiaoVa thorough study of the subject,
shows the necessity for the speedy adop
tion in America of methods for preserv
ing or renewing the oyster-beds along
our coast, such as are extensively prac
tised in France, which are here described
with the aid of illustrations. "The Truth
about Florida," by Louise Seymour
Houghton, . holds the balance between
opposite views in regard to the climate
and advantages of that State, both as a
health resort and a field for agricultural
enterprise and investment. Dr. Oswald
continues his account of "Zoological Cur
iosities" With an anecdotical and finely
illustrated paper on that "step-child of
Nature," the sloth; and "Granada and
the Alhambra" forms the subject of a
well-written article, historical and des
criptive, by S. P.Scott, with many strik
ing illustrations. "The Indiscretions ot
Madame Joubert" skims the cream of a
newly published French book containing
reminiscences of Alfred da M asset, Hein-
rich Heme, and ether celebrities of the
last generation. 'Craque-o-Dom," the
new serial, keeps well up to the mark;
and among the short stories, one entitled
"In Search of a Soul" is remarkable for
its originality and for its charming des
criptions of Italian scenes and1 lifer, while
"Pringle's Flat," by David Lowry, is a
come picture, and shows much merit in
the way of vivid word-painting.
