A certain gontlomnn of the city has been having an exceedingly lively time for the last ton days , says the San Francisco Examiner. lie is a married man , lives at ono of the beat hotels , and is popularly known to his friends as Dick. Last fall his wife went cast on a visit , and Dick at once sot out to have a roy ally good time during her absence. For three months he and his friends painted things a very bright crimson , but about two wooke ago he delivered himself thus : "Well , boys , wo have been going too fast. I'm going to reform. You'll have to get along henceforth without my assistance. " He then loft. The boys were paralysed with aston ishment until ono of them discovered that Mrs. Dick was expected back the next night , and then they resolved to have revenge on him for his duplicity. When Mrs. Dick arrived Mr. Dick escorted her to their rooms in style , Throwing open the door , ho exclaimed. "Welcome homo , my dear. " The next moment he stood gasping with aston ishment. The room was brightly lighted , nud on the table wore four big , beautiful bouquets. lie know there was something wrong , bnt for the life of him ho could not toll what. Meanwhile Mrs. Dick , socking the flowers oxelaimoil : "Oh ! Dieic , how pretty are ; whore did you got thomV" Dick thought that ho saw a ehanco of Dbcapo and replied : "Why , yes , I that is I--I bought them fo'r you , " "Why , hero's a card on this , " she ex- ulaimou , picking it up. Dick turned white with terror. Mrs. Dick read the card , looked at Dick for n moment and thnn read it aloud. It ran 'its' follows : , "JlBAii DICK Why did'ntyou ' call last nlplit 1 nsyou nrumlacdj Come soon. Yours , . After a terrible pause , full of moan ing , Mrs. Dick read the card on the second : "UKAii Oj.n Hey : Hero Is u sourvenlr of nlglit befuio latit. Sunn : . " The third ran : "DAiu.iN'a Dime Pap.i and mnmma goto tbo theater to-night. Verb , sap. Ocfsiu.11 If anything was needed to finish the unhappy DicU the fourth furnished it. To it was attached n largo envelope , from which Mrs. Dick extracted a a photograph of n lady in an exceed ingly abbreviated costume , on the back was written : , "From Haby. " For five minutes Mrs. DicU gazed at her cowering husuand with a stony glare. Then cnmu the deluge , lie tried to piotost his entire innocence , but in vain. It took nil his pursuasions to keep her from going homo to mamma , nnd it v/as an hour * before she became quiet. Then ho. discovered that all the notes were written by the same hand , nnd this nearly convinced her that it'was trick. IVjt she i still somewhat sus picions , nud Dick hna to walk a very straight ' l\ \ o indeed if ho wants to avoid troublo. . r ' fi | ! clnl Fund. $1.000 to loih : on good Vent estate se curity.

[ would call attention to three facts : l.'Thnt It now costs the several street railway companies , § 14y01 per inlle for pav ing ; 2. Tlmt the companies are willing' to con tinue on this basis. 3. That the proposed law will ninko it cost street railway companies * 2J,440 per mile for paving. 4. Tlmt this is prohibition , nnd would cause street railway construction to almost : ease. 5. Tlmt the proposed law would not save to the citv over $1,200 to S1.-100 per mlle , an construction will bo largely in tlio suburbs , consequently the city has not eufliclent in terest In the mutter to Insist nn ilio provis ions of the new charier in this regard.

T\vo duck hunters , George O'Neill and Henry Partridge , who have just re turned from a season of shooting at Montnuk Point , L. I. , says a New Lon- donCbnn. , dispatch to the Globe-Dom- ocrat , report the novel method of duck- hunting resorted to by n Massachusetts suortsman named Chadwick , who has boon spending much of the winter.about Fort Pond Hay and Nnpague Harbor. Ghndwiek " lias an ice tricycle which travels on runners , upon which , they say , ho is able to cruise over many miles of ice in short ponds and land-locked bays daily without fatigue. The machine is lilted with two stoo runners forward , like an ice boat , nnd steers with a movable runner aft. 13p- tweon the two foward runners and in the rear a Btcel calked wrought iron wheel travels on the ico. This is the propelling powor. It is about three feet in diameter and can be geared seas as to make throe revolutions to one of the fore pedals , or less than half a revo lution to each turn of tlio crank's , ac cording to the speed required. Under favorable conditions a high rate of speed can bo maintained , and in scud ding before the wind or running with a honin wind the propelling wheel is lifted up and a little canoe mast and sail are rigged up and made to do good borvico. Mr. Chndwiuk was easily able to out-shoot his follow-SDortsmen on Long Island as with the aid of his ma chine ho could follow the game for any distance in an incredible short spiico of time. In approaching an opening in the ice' filled with ducks ho in enabled to got very near it before shooting by decorating his tricycle with brush and trees , and in this way disarming the birds of all suspicion us to his real cbar- uctor.
