Why lie Changed His Mind.

A few years ago tall, rough.looking
mountaineer entered the Union railroad
ticket office at Denver, and, through mis-
take, purchased q ticket for New York, via
the Kansas Pacific line, when be wanted to
20 over the Union Pacific. He did not
discover the fact until the ticket had been
paid for, aud upon asking the agent to
change it, the latter refused to do 80.
"You won't change this ticket, then,
will you ?"
a. No, SIR" replied the agent, "you have
your ticket, aud have the money for it,
If you want ticket over the other route,
you will have to buy it."
Very quietly the stranger twisted his
ticket into small roll very serenely he
drew from under bis right coat-tai a six
shooter about the dimensions of noun
tain howitzer, cooly aud deliberately stuck
the twisted ticket into the muzzle Of that
sx.shooter, and sticking the looking
thing through the square window Of the
ticket Office and almost into the agents
face, and speaking in tone that lett no
doubt of his determination, said
"Stranger, that's that ticket; take II
yourself and change II, or by - III
blow II clean through you"
The ticket was changed Immediately
aud without any more words from the
agent, and the mountaineer walked away
saying 81 jest though. could induce
him to change his mind eetle."

A man named Donks was lately tried in
Yuba, California, for entering a miners
tent, and stealing bag of gold DUST valu.

showed that be had once been employed
there, and knew exactly where the owner
kept his gold dust that on the night spe.

principal witness testified that he saw the

run away.

the witness, " but when catched him |

afterwards where he had thrown it,
How far did be get in when he took the

MAY it please your honor" interposed
the counsel, the indictment isn't sustain

tion Of the court. The prisoner is on trial
for entering a dwelling in the night time,
with intent to steal. The testimony is clear
that he made an opening through which he
protruded himself about half way, anC
stretched out his arms, and committed tn,
theft. But the indictment charges that b

The judge sentenced the guilty party tC
two years Imprisonment, leaving it to the
prisoners option to have the innocent party

Swift Justice.

A merchant left st. Petersburg to travel
across Europe. In the course Of his jour
ney he arrived at Warsaw. Being furnish
ed with q letter of introduction, he repair
ed to the house Of one Of the chief citizens
there, and was most courteously received. |
He stad at Warsaw for week, and his
host spared no pains to make the visit
agreeable, and showed him everything
worth seeing in the town. Indeed, the
visitor was quite overwhelmed by an amount
of kindness rarely shown to any but q
friend of long standing.
At length the pleasant visit drew to its
close, and after breakfast the guest express
ed bis wish to see some poor parts of the
town, of which he had heard. But"
said he, "I have with me small box Of
great value that l do not like to risk in
such places. If it were my own | should
not be so particular but it was intrusted
to me by friend, who requested me to
deliver it to person in another town. II
contains diamonds and other valuablcs.-
Would you do me the great favor of taking
charge of it for the day ?" The host,
with his usual urbanity, willingly agreed
to this proposal, and the merchant depart
ed with light heart on his tour OF in-
spection, | forget the name but let us say
in the Seven Dials," or Five Points,
Of Warsaw.
Next morning after breakfast he cordial
ly thanked his kind entertainers for their
jealous hospitality, and added that as he
was about to depart, he would now resume
his charge Of the box which had never be.
fore quilted his person since he had received
it from its owner. The host and hostess
stared at him in well-acted amazement
"What box ~ asked the host. II remember
no box-do you my dearf' turning to his
, wife. "No,p she said, IL have no re-
J collection of any box whatever" What
was it like 2" asked the host; perhaps you
left it in your ROOM" But on the mer

himself it had been left, on his stunning to hi

/ other several times, and fortifying eacf
: other in their denial became cold and dis
: tant, and began limiting that something
D must have happened to the merchant, t'
induce him to persist in 50 strange deu
sion. As the host touched his forehead
with a significant glance the poor man re
; membered that he was in strange city
the ground seemed to be slipping from un
der his feet danger to himself loomed il
/ the distance, and he hastened from the hous
! in alarm. Straight to the police he went
and stated his case. The official listene'

and he produced small key from an inner
pocket.
The official remained lost in thought for
some time, and then said "Well, |

Archduke Constantine the governor Of Po-
land is a stern, harsh man, but he is known
for his rigorous justice, and if he believes
your story he will do his best for you. /
will take you to him at once"
No time was lost, and the merchant soon
found himself in the archduke's presence,
and was desired to relate his story. When
it was concluded, the archduke, after a few
moments reflection, rang bell. An Of
fetal appeared. Send for NJ"
naming the treacherous host. IL was quick

his seat and took up the pen--the archduke
began debating -

No." said the man, springing from his
seat won't write that"
"Then you are guilty" was the prompt
answer.
Puzzled and foied, he resumed his seat
and wrote as he was desired -
"My Dear Wife All is found out.
Send the box by the bearer"
Then he signed it with his own name, by
the archduke's order, aud messenger was
dispatched with it. The messenger found
the lady at her toilet. When she read the
.missive she turned ashy pale trembling
violently. Then leaning forward, she drew
the box from the recess iu her toilet-table,
and handed it to the bearer, who swiftly
returning, placed it in the hands of the
arch-duke. He Immediately handed it to
the merchant, desiring him to unlock it;
that being DONE he asked whether the dia-
monds were all there. Yes, the box had
not been opened they were exactly as the
merchant bad left them.
