The female waiters wait-ers in the hotel on hearing the result raised the amount, and in a body went to the jail and paid it over to the jailer, thus securing Smythe'a release. They took Smythe up in their arms and carried car-ried him from the jail to the street, and gave him three hearty cheers. They then escorted him to the railway station, and before ho stepped on board the car was embraced and kissed by somo of his female fe-male admirers, and as the train moved off they saluted their protege with cheers, just the same as men would do.
