An IMpORrANr DECISION.
From the ). +. Alta. 9th. !


"A decision of Importance to the
members of the San Francisco Stock
and Exchange Board and others was
rendered yesterday by Judge Sawyer
In the United States Circuit Court.
The case is we'll known among brokers,
and may be briefly stated. \ member
OF the Board became inSolvent, and in
accordance with u rule of that body, to
which all members on entering have to
subscribe, he transferred his seat to the
Board, to be sold for the benefit of his
creditors, who were members thereof,
to the exclusion of all other creditors.
Henry L. Hyde was appointed assign
90 of the bankrupt, and brought an ac-
tion to compel Il general and equal dis
tributon of the proceeds of the seat
among all creditors. Judge Sawyer
holds in his decision that the rule of
the Board is legal, and that the di>iri-
button of the proceeds of the sale of the
bankrupt'S seat under it is in accord
.Ancc with law. The outside creditors
can get only the surplus. il any, which
mmainS after the demands of the inside
creditors are satisfied. The seat was
valued at $4,000. The decision is of
Interest to members of the Board, rs it
settles "A very important question i'll the

A FIGHT WITH THE TIGER.
Z F1f ~ hour Buck at Faro with 4
awe LOSS Of All 1000.

lFrom the Chicago Times, june 81
One day last week a professional
rambler went into Il faro room CN
lark street to have an engagement
with the ";igcr." He commenced
playing, lost, wen. lest again, con-
1inued losing; and finally at the end of
fifty hours lie quit the engagement,
1iit of pocket tn the amount of SlI 800.
'During this season OF fifty hours the
game was unbroEen. The gambler
never slept for 4 moment, never
stopped to eat a meal, but carried the
whole tremenduouse enterprise through
without rest, cessation o., refreshlnent.
The wonderful thing of this is not
;he amount lost bv the plaver-al-
.-hough it was Il sufficiently bad thing
s0r ~hin-Or the amount won by the
t,ank-wllich was a notably good thing
Tor the bank-but the enormous en-
iuraiice shown by the loser. The case
is one nearly or quite without parallel.
Men have ridden, spoken, and done
many other things for twentyfour or
thirty hours at stretch: but case
other than the present one is unknown
in which Il labor was carried through
so long Il period-a labor which in
vOlved SO much men al wear and tear,
and was, therefore, treblv ar,luous in
its effects upon the system of the chief
participant. The event is also notice
able as showing the absorbing power
ct gaming. One can not fancy any
task which would induce or force a
man to deprive himself during the
same period of sleep or refre>hincn'.
One watching by the bedside of Il diving
child would succumb within less than
this period. \ man who had the Ger
tainty of living but fifty hours. would
probably spend one fourth Of it in
sleep. and would give due attention to
his food. ->,ne escaping from Il deadly
d'e, and knowing that every in>tant'>
delay might pre- We fatal, would not fly
for so long Il time without Snatchin-
now and then 'noncntary rest. In
short, one can conc i've of no other cir
-cuinstanceS in which man would give
fifty unbrOlen hours to "A single task
circumstances more especially which
should tear the chief actor with hope
and fear, and harass him necessarily
with the operation of the most de
struciive of the emotions. Could some
eoiie perform a similar feat in the inter
est of charity, or country, or friend
ship. he would secure for himself a
very fair grade of Immortality.

The Old Hucksler that may Kiss the
Prince.

[Paris Letter to the New York Timesl
There was one incident connected
with the fete at Cbiselhurst, which
Is worth recalling. In the tent near
the spot occupied by the Prince, was
very old woman, dressed in an an-
tique costume, and looking like
peasant woman of other days. AS
the Prince begau to read, she was
greatly meved. "That's SO, my son!'
she cried; "that's true, Monseigneur,
every word of just listen to thatw
And when the speech was ended she
swung her bonnet and cried Vive
pEnpereur. Then she wanted to
kiss the Prince, and, when stopped
she pushed every one aside and said
it was her right. "Let me CO." she
said, "I am Nine. Lebon, dean of the
women of les Halles." This was
enough and her rights were immedi-
ately recognized. She kissed
the Prince and embraced the
Empress, and was loudly applauded.
Nine. Lebon is now the oldest huck>
ster of the Central Markets, and
the doyenae of the association.
On the return of Napoleon l. from
Elba, she was charged with the
presentation of the boquet
in the midst of the demoiselles of the
Halle, traditional ceremony with
powerful corporation. Te day she
is the Oldest living, and finds herself
at the head of fortune of two nils
lions. She owns three houses in the
Rus de Turbige. She has always be-
lieved in the star of the Napoleons,
ana called her son Napoleon Lebon.
After the fall of the first Emperor,
she was greatly interested in Napo-
lean Ill, and visited hlm several
times when in exile. When he died
she put on mourning. 1t was Nine.
Lebon who organized the famous ball
Of the Hallor after the ID of Decem-
Der, or the coup detdt, for which
5000 invitations were issued. The
Emperor did not come to the ball
but his representative embraced her
publicly on entering, and took her
hand to open the dancing. On the
birth of Napoleon ~. she presented
the traditional bouquet, and claimed
her right of kissing the child when
baptised in May, 1856, in the church
of Notre Dame, ceremony which ]
saw, and which l shall never forget.
One can now understand why Nine
Lebon was warmly embraced when
her name was heard. She said that
she hoped to present bouquet to a
son of the Prince, but at any rate she
should not think of dying before she
had presented one with a kiss on his
coronation.

THE WORTHY mAsrER's ADDRESS

Worthy aye, indeed worthy to pre-
side over the destinies OF the farmers OF
Texas, if we may take this aldress as
type of the character Of .Nc man. We
publish in ou- Sunday spr lement the
address of Wm, W. Ling. the Worthy
Master Of the State Grange.
He commences with brief history oI
the inception and early progress of the
Order in the State, and pays, in passing,
an eloquent tribute to the memory of the
first Worthy Master, Colonel J. B. John.
son, whose death was indeed calamity
to the Order, coming as it did in the very
infancy of its history, although his man
tie has evidently fallen upon worthy as
well as capable shoulders. He pays
high compliment to the energy and self
sacrificing devotion of the numerous
deputies, to whom has been confded the
work of organization. How efficiently
they have worked is abundantly shown
by the wonderful progress made by the
Order. Captain lang said: "We have
met at the echoing blast of no party
leader" and disclaims any political fea
ture or intent.
The aims and purposes of the Order
are all confined within the range of the
interests and progress Of the farmer. No
proud political banner points out the
course for the. peaceful Patrons. The
hardy farmers only rally upon the banner
of material progress, under whose peace.
full folds gather the millions of humble
toilers in the fields of agriculture.
No warlike trumpet.blast heralds the
coming OF the Patron. No tears, no
ruins or wrecks are left behind them.
They make war upon no legitimate purs
suit or avocation. The catholicity of
the views as expressed in this address
will do much to dispel the false impress
sions so industriously promulgated by
those who are ignorant of the aims and
purposes of the organization.
We commend this mastery address to
our readers of every character. Its senti,
ments are such as may be entertained by
every honest, well meaning man in the
State.
1t will be seen tbat the Grangers Of
Texas are governed and swayed by a
morality that is not very far removed from
correct gospel standing, and these fars
mers need not be feared, either as poll.
ticians or monopolists, but may be res
garded as only seeking to elevate and
tone their own pursuits, and in doing
that they only add to the sum of human
prosperity and happiness.
