Lekkp.â€" Oneofthe best jokes we have heard in a long time occurred in Wianon a few days ago. a farmer's wife entered one of our leading stores I andaflor making some light purchases pulled a green vegetable out of iier pocket, which she aaid she had picked np in the road, and asked the store- keepor to tell her wl.at "it was. The merchant eat a piece and told her it was a Jeek. Tne woman was snrpris- ed, as. according to the acooant. she had never seeu a leek, and did not know wha t it was. She then left the store, and in a few miniites appeared â- gam with a quantity of butter, whiob Jie wished tt dispoea of for goods. T|i« inq^i^ant pronounced it first class. *•»«*. *l»e •ff'»»«i»Md storekeeper be- «^efl» o«ier of • qriauli^ of batter hj^«lin«gnmt«d with ihejhieto and Meatobd, May 25. â€" At a special meeting of the Town Council held last night, the committee appointel to invigtigate and report as to the state of the roils in the hands of the absconded feollector, A. Watt, report- ed that there remains uncollected ou the 1886 roll $-530.02. The total amount of said roll is §7,970,87, and Mr. Watt had paid to tlie treasurer $7,785,62, showing an apparent overpayment of S324.77, as compared with the amount still appearing un- collected. The 1887 roll amounts to $8,442.95, and of this amount tlie treasurer has been paid §5,377.07, leaving a, balance still due of $3,065.- 78. The roll shows amount still un- collected $948,40, leaving a deficit of $.118.88. This amount Mr. Watt has apparently misappropriated. Allowii;g for the overplus on the 1886 roll, the exemptions and strikes-off, it is estimated the deficit will be m the neighborhood of $1,600, or there- abouts. Before that amount will be recovered there is likely to be a Bdit at law, as the sureties claim to 1^|* legal advice on the matter, to effect that they cannot beheld respon- sibie for the deficit, owing to the coun- cil having extended the collector's wne repeatedly after the date fixed DJ statute for the final return of the lou- The council, however, instmcted m clerk to notifiy the sureties of the ap- parent deficit, and that they "m^ held responsible therefor.
