Byome means the lire in the stove in the audi tor's ollice caught the matting , burning Fcvcral holes before it was put out.

Pete MeNulty fools ihat the papers are givinsr it to him rather hot about the rows ivliiolf have taken place at the "Do Drop In1 and in that vicinity. First and chief of all he says that he is not the proprietor of the saloon , and not responsible tor the reputation of the place , it being owned by a man named ilammill , AlcNulty being simply employed as a bartender. He further says tnat lie was not present when the shooting took place , ami that it was on the street , as near other saloons as the one where ho Is employed. Jlo de nies , in fact , that he is in any way respon sible , or that he has encouraged fellows hanging about the place , and lias done what ho could to preserve order and pre vent such scenes.

" Judge Aylesworth yesterday examined into the disgraceful row in the "Do Drop In , " in which David Kippln was so seriously hurt by a beer glass The evi dence showed tliiit there was quite a row kicked up in the house b.y Frank Peter- hon and George Roper. Both of these 3'oung fellows have been before the court ellen , and have been warned that they must reform or they would got into serious dilliculties. Roper seems to have been the one who struck Kippin , the blow being in the face , causing a wound the result of which cannot yet bo de termined. Kippin was brought to the courtroom yesterday in a hack , against the wish of hie physician , who feared the exposure. Kippin was hardlv recogniza ble , his forehead being swollen to thncc its natural si/.c. The evidence showed that the row was a most disgraceful one , and that it was chiolly caused by i'eter- .son and Roper. They will bo held to answer to the grand jury. Judge Aylcsworth also scored the saloonkeepers for sellmir intoxicating liquors to minors. He said ho would like lo have some of those brought before the bars , for it was a shame to have the boys given drink. An information was filed charging McNuli.y with keeping a disorderly liouse , and this was put oil'for a week. Stoves ! Stoves !

Brooklyn Magazine : A few more days and the year winch to homo has brought happiness and to others misfortune will bo addcil to those which have parsed before - fore it. Many will during the present month sit in retrospective thoughts over the events which have marked the year in their lives. To the young the years speed not fast enough ; to the old they are all too short. The young man enjoys the closing of one year in preparing for the next , the aged man nui os over the events of past years , and contemplates the mys teries of the future. In the lives of many the year has proved a memorable one , whilu in those of others it has been marked with no special events. The hopes of ono have reached fruition , the aspirations of another have fallen short of success. And thus the last day of De cember will bring alike pleasant and sad memories. There is a lesson to bo drawn from the close of every year thai may well leach us of the opening of the now one. It is by deriving prolit trom the pti t that wo can improve the future. If wo have under taken enterprises during the present year that have proved unsuccessful , wo can now , on looking back over the ground , sec more clearly what our mistake was or wherein we failed , and by having under gone such experiences wo arc by far the better oil' . We have been taugliL lessons which we might otherwise never have learned , and in our future undertakings the great value of them will bo apparent to us , if now they yet scorn unnecessary and unproductive of good. There is a lesson in all our lailurcs , if we will but regard them in the proper light. So long as wo prolit by what has occurred during the year now rapidly drawing to a. close , it will not have" been wasted. The ex perience of the old vcar will make our success during the new more assured , for wo wiil have learned what shoals to avoid in the sea of life. If our bark has just ground , over the rock reefs with but slight injury , let us feel thankful that wo were not en tirely wrecked. The closijig of an other year will also remimf many of the necessity of acting in the present rather than postponing to the future. It will teach us , perhaps , what may have es caped us before , that the sun as swiftly descends to its setting as it rises to its noon. As a nation , our history is un equalled for activity , enterprise , and thrift , yet how many are loiteiing by the wayside : contending to themselves that the'ro is ' 'plenty of time" in which to at tain a certain cud ; then , rousing up sud denly , how surprised arc they to find that the opportunity for their achievmcnl has passed. These and scores of other les sons will be suggested to many with the close of 18Si.
