fh ative ‘*Possibly your meters are defective,’ he erved hut in the district served by m) rn employers there was always a kick’ comirg from the consumers, and yet the meters were absolutely accurate in eration Every month the com- ‘ted from 10 to 15 per cent more than it was honestly entitled to, which was a tidy little profit on the side. How was it managed? Easily enough. Every night shortly after midnight the presstre in the mains was raised enormously. Un-
der this increased pressure the gas w forced through the meters and compressed in the various pipes in the building of the consumer, Naturally the meters accurate- ly registered all the gas thus forced through them. Later the pressuré was reduced be low the normal, and there was a return flow through the pipes, but as the meters would not back register the gas flowed throug! uk without producing any alteration in the figures. Sticking to this system of pump- ing, the compsny succeeded in getting a showing at the end of the month that was largely in its favor.”’
‘‘Was there no way in which the con- sumer could protect himself?’’ inquired one curious member of the circle of listen- ers.
‘*Certainly, but as he knew nothing of the method by which he was being swin- dled the simple checkmating scheme never occurred to him. The prudent man wo carefully turned off his gas at the meter every night when he was through with it paid only for what he got. The ‘milking’ of the meters was then impossible.”’
And every one who heard how it was done made a mental resolution to use tac meter shut off thenceforward, even while consoling himself that the Chicago com- panies are above resorting to any petty fraud of this character.—Chicago Times- Herald.

Stage 2 ragedies.
One of the dramatic little stories of Mr. F. Frankfort Moore, the London novelist, turns ou the actual stabbing of a Juliet by a jealous Romeo during a performance in a German court theater. Such tragic incidents have not infre- quently occurred in the annals of opera and playhouse. In our own city’s chief lyric theater last season we had what seemed the lively comedy of an actor something leading up to his sudden death, when the unfortunate Castle- mary, as Sir Tristan Mickleford, as pursued by the crowd of Richmondfair folk in ‘‘Martha.’’ There are at least a dozen well attested suicides that have been consummated by luckless actors or singers under cover of the tragic move- ment of their part. A more recent ex- ample occurred at the theater in Arad, Hungary, when a well known leading member of the company, Koloman Bal- la, put a real and loaded revolver to his forehead in concluding the last act of the night’s drama. He fell dead, amid an immense demonstration of applause from a crowded house quite unaware of the reality of the actor’s emotion and gestures. He was @ man of excellent family and bright in professional pros- pects, disappointed in love, morbid, and, as he grimly wrote to a friend, *‘determined to end his days asan actor ought to do—to the satisfaction of his public. ’’—Harper’s Weekly.
Halfpeuny Dinners.
Near to Whitechapel church, London, is a shop where a dinner can be pro- eured for a halfpenny. The ‘‘halfpenny dinner’’ is not served upin the shape of a cut from the joint and two vegeta- bles. It is a big brown ‘‘pie,’’ very juicy and very hot. The absence of beefsteak is evident when you bite the
but you find inside a good sprin- ing of onions, carrots and sheep’s liver, with a plentiful supply of gravy. Be- tween the hours of 12 and 2 the poor and hungry from all parts of the east end flock to this shop. There are shoe- blacks, penny toy Men, costers and clerks ‘‘out of collar.’’—~London Stand- ard.

BURNETT OF TOMBSTONE. County Cut Down His Bill, and He Ran the Court to Suit Himself.
A stormy life was that ended when |
old Jim Burnett was killed in Tomb- stone by William Greene—a life ful) of experiences of the border kind that would supply material for 20 of the thrilling of ’ backed novels. The end wasin keeping with the life. Burnett, a justice of the peace in Pearce camp, had left his work in srder to go down on the San Pedro riv- or, 50 miles away, and blow out with wader the irrigating canal dam , Greene. Below at the time, probably vuknown to Burnett, were two young girls, one a daughter of Greene. aged 18, and her friend from Bisbee. They were canght in the fic-od that followed the explosion and wvure drowned. The father learmed of the presence of his foe, saddled his horse, code over to Tombstone, found Burnett . the main street and shot him down. The town stood behind Greene in his

djJeed. He has been admitted to light bail and will be acguitted if eve
brought to trial. Since Burnett’s death many are the
tales being raked up abont him. His was a singular personality. Strong willed and violent in temper, he cs-
pecially shone in a frontier camp. It was, therefore, quite appropriate that he should have been elected justice of the peace in 1881 at Charleston, on the San Pedro, where the rich ores of Tomb stone were at that time milled. Charleston was thena howling camp, full of freighters, miners and the wool- iest of cowboys. The whisky sold wasn’t
tribulation sate within the community and the justice’s court was always open. Brrnett did a rashing business. At the end of three months he duly reported, as by law required, to the county super- visors, sending in his bill for the amount due him from the county. The county fathers cut the bill down one-half. Bur- nett swore vigorously when he got the returns, but held no further communi- cations with the county seat. Another three months elapsing, the county trca
urer wrote Burnett to furnish his quar- terly statement. The reply came prompt- ly. It was: ‘‘The blazes with you! This court after this will be self sustaining.’’
And so it was, in great shape. Every time a cowboy would get exhilarated and shoot up the town the judge would fine him several hunired dollars and would pocket what remained after pay- ing his constables for the arrest.
One day old man Schwartz got excit- ed and killed a man. After the justice, an ex-officio coroner, had finished the inquest he had Schwartz haled before the bar, found him guilty of the crime and fined him $1,000. Schwartz wanted to appeal the case, but Burnett would issue no papers on appeal. So the de- fendant sent up to Tombstone for Attor- ney Mark Smith, now delegate to con- gress from Arizona. Smith came down at once and heard Schwartz’s tale of woe. It was a clear case of murder.
‘*Pay the money, you ass,’’ the law- yer fairly shouted, ‘‘and then go bury yourself somewhere down in Mexico.”’
Schwartz paid and skipped, and the
} case was never again heard of in court.
But the county never received any of that coin. Those who figured on the proposition said that Burnett came out $22,000 ahead on his office in two years. —Philadelphia Times.
