The substitution of a semicolon for a comma in an act which became a law in 1889 has caused a lot of trouble for the surface railroads and apparently makes necessary the passing of a healing act by the present legislature. The act, which relates to railroad crossings, isasfollows: “No electric, cable or horse railroad shaU'hei'eafter be constructed across the tracks of a steam railroad at grade; nor shall any steam railroad cross any such electric, cable or horse railroad at grade, except upon application and approval by the railroad commissioners.” The preceding was approved, semicolon and all, June 11,1889, and became a law. The result is that while steam roads can cross surface lines at will with the per­ mission of the railroad commissioners street and electric roads are barred from crossing steam roads with or without permission.—Hartford Courant. “Go fetch the parson and throw back the gales.

Where Orientals Are Cared For. Like most Institutions of the kind, the Strangers’ home sprang originally out of missionary efforts among the seafaring population of the riverside. It was opened in 1857 by the prince consort, and the Ma­ harajah Dhuleep Singh was one of the principal contributors. Since then it has been supported mainly by English charity, although some of the easteru governments subscribe to the funds. Its best friends have always been British officials connect­ ed with the east; among whom may be mentioned the late Lord Nbjiier, Lord Reay, Sir Charles Atchison and Sir Wil­ liam Muir, Considering the very admirable work done by the home in keeping Asiatics of all kinds out. of the. hands of riverside harpies and in looking after their physical, mental and pecuniary welfare, it is matter for surprise as well as regret that it should receive no support from the wealthy oriental houses established in London. This may be due to an idea that it is a proselytizing center; but that is a mistake. Although the underlying spirit is that of the Christian mission, no religious pres­ sure is brought to bear on any man. The objects of the institution are practical; to afford good food and accommodation to Asiatics ashore, to take care of their money, to find ships for those out of em­ ployment, to take in such as are stranded here destitute and friendless, and assist them home. The majority pay, and, so far, it is self- snpporting, but about £800 a year is re­ quired over and above the receipts for board and lodging. The accommodation is from 150T to 200, but a varying number pass through in the year. One year there were 506, representing the following na­ tionalities: Chinese, 138; Indians (lascars), 131; Japanese,; 92; Arabs and Egyptians, 58; Africans, 40; May lays, 27; natives of Mauritius, 10, of Ceylon, 10.—St. James Budget. ________________ MELINDA’S WEDDING. When Melindy Wiggins got engaged to Pelig Jenks her ma was just tickled to death. Beaus was scase down to Punkinville, for none of the young men would stay arter they was growed up— besides, Pelig is real forehanded’ and quite a catch. His ma was sot ag’in his marryin at all. and Melindy she wouldn’t never hev caught him ef she hadn’t took airly moruin walks ’bout the time he went over to his place of business, and met him as ef bjr accident. 1 am told that he proposed by Tag­ gart’s barn, and was excepted in front of the shoemaker’s, and gave Melindy her engagement ring jest this side of the blacksmith's; but I can’t quite believe folks get petickerlers as close as that. 1 only say they say so. 1 don’t swear to it.
