A PLAYFUL SHOOTER.

The Inyo Independent relates the following
romantical incident. On the 9Th "Hickey"
Hood and Rafting Jack" Twaddle had a
set to at Sheperd's place, Georges Creek.
Hickey was there on friendly visit, and after
drinking together number of times, Twad-
die drew his six-shooter and fired two shots
over Hickeys head, then third one which
struck just below the right nipple and COM
ing out about an inch to the right of the
back bone, ranging downwards from point of
entrance, and inaicting an ugly looking wound
but one not at all likely to prove fatal
Hickey was also armed but it appears did not
shoot, though it is said he made the first DEM
onstration Hickey ran to the school house
near by and reported himself shot, while
Twaddle proceeded to surrender himself to
John Sheperd, who brought him to town.
The District Attorney went down to seeabout
it, but Hickey positively refused to prosecute,
saying it was nothing but drunken row and
no use to bother about it. Twaddle was &C
cordingly discharged, and Immediately as
sumed the position of nurse to Hickey, who |
sends word to the ''boys' that he will "soon
be up to see EN-. |

HOW THEY FEEL.

1t would seem from the following that the
MORNING APPEAL has come very near reflect
ing the tone of feeling in genuine Republican
centers regarding the President. Conkling
and not Curtis would seem to speak the
mind of the party. Here is from last eve
ning's dispatches: Cox of Ohio (not member
of congress but an ex member of Andy John
sons Cabinet) having said his say in support
of the policy of his fellow malignant, and hav-
ing been sharply cross questioned by Frye of
Maine, Butler of Massachusetts, and others
Thornburg of Tennessee, said the Republi-
cans Of that State are utterly disheartened.
There is no longer Republican organization
in Tennessee. That party has no represent
ative in the Cabinet that is not obliged when
seeking to accomplish anything in connection
with the Postofice Department, to go over
the head of that department to the President
himself, and that Southern Republicans will
not confer direct with the Postmaster General.
At this point Blair, of New Hampshire,
inquired of Mr.. Thornburg whether, when
they had visited the President they had re-
ceiyed any satisfaction from him, and whether
they had ever been able to obtain what they
wanted Thornburg said that they never had
been able.
Canton, of Illinois, reported that there is
very general feeling among the Republicans
of his State that the President had not prop
erly cared for those to whom he owes his cleo
ton, and that there is very general dissatis-
faction in regard to his treatment of Southern
Dunnell, of Minnesota, said the Repubh-
cans of his State were not cordial toward the
President Conger expressed the opinion
that in his State the Republican feeling is
that the policy of the President toward the
South must be accepted as matter of fact
and something which it is now impossible to
remedy, and that in regard to the civil service
order, at least nine tenths of the Michigan
dissent totally from it.
1t was agreed before the conference adj
journed that the Republican delegations from
the several States should hold separate con-
,erences on Saturday and agree upon some
course to be pursued.
New York, Oct pa Tribune Washing
on special says many Republican members of
Congress charge that the President takes i'm
1ortant action without consulting, so far as
hey can discover, any of the leaders of the
party, and they fear he takes Democrats into
lis councils. So far has the estrangement
zone that it is said to resemble the early days

ROBBING THE REESE RIVER AR
SENAL.

The Reveille tells of larcenous assault
upon the army stores of the Reese River con-
tingent as follows: The arrest of the three
boys for stealing muskets from the armory In
Bradford's Hall gave rise to an investigation,
which developed that number of muskets
belonging to the State and there stored, adj
ditional to those recovered from the boys,
had been distracted Captain McGlennon,
who discovered the loss of the arms, immedi-
ately commenced to investigate the matter
and succeeded in tracing three of the guns to
the possession of Indians, and to-day he
gathered together in the courthouse all the
Indians he could find and made an examlna-
ton of the guns in their possession, the re-
suit being the finding of three of the State
muskets missing from the armory. The Indians
claimed to have purchased the arms from
white men and boys, giving the names of the
sellers, and Capt. McGlennon contiscated the
muskets in the name of the State He has
learned that certain white men have still other
stolen muskets in their possession, and he de-
sires through these columns to notify the
parties in question to return them at once
and that if not returned after the lapse of
reasonable time legal measures for their recov-
cry will be taken and the persons in whose
possession they may be found dealt with &C
cording to law.
Of a war of races, the Reveille relates the
following circumstances: An Indian got into
poker game with some Cinnamon in China
town last night, and holding losing hand on
a three-dollar pot, snatched the money from
the table and refused to give it up. The
Cinnamon locked the door of the house and
made the Indian prisoner and one of their
number crawled through window and came
down town and laid the case before Marshal
Brennan. The officer proceeded to China
town and effected compromise by dividing
the pot between the disputant gamblers. The |
Cinnamon say 'Injeen muche stealee;" and

The Emporia news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1859-1881, 1877-10-12

A country couple went to q notary
In a German town TO get married,
pursuant to an appointment they had
previously made with HIM. To econo-
mize time he had already drawn up q
certificate and had entered the marri-
age in his records. To his great Vexa-
ton, when the couple appeared, the
bridegroom had repented, Gsbecause
he'd just heard something about the
BRIDE" All efforts to persuade him to
consent to the ceremony were fruit
less, and the bridal couple withdrew.
The notary angrily paced his office,
and cudgeled his brains as to some
way to remove from his records the
entry of the uncompleted marriage.
While thus ccgitating, the bridal
couple, to his surprise, again presented
themselves. On their way home the
bride had expostulated with her swain
cit was not right of you to have done
this to me. You, no doubt, can get
wife when you wish one, but from
me no person can take the shame you
have put on me-" The swain grows
soft, and she continues: s'If we make
It appear that you were willing, but
that was not, then, 1, too, stand a
chance OF yet getting q husband"
The proposition seemed fair to him
and he consented to return. Again
appearing before the notary, the BRIDE
groom said: "I'Ve thought it over
and changed my mind.' 6Good, said
the notary, d delighted. "But now let's
have no nonsense. N. N, are you
willing to take &c, &C., as your wife ?''
"Yes," said the bridegroom. 'N. N,
are you willing to take &c &C., as your
husband ?" "Yes," said the bride.
"Nol Mop cried the bridegroom.
"That won't do" But the notary
said Is said. Here, subscribe your
names and begone !" And before the
outwitted groom can collect his
thoughts the thing Is done.

RenuGIaIIOm.

From the EmpOria Register.
Because q few coun ties in Kansas
are conspiring to repudiate indebt-
edness they voluntarily incurred,
leading eastern papers are saying
that Kansas is proposing to en-
gage in the reputation business.
Thus the whole State is compelled
to bear the odium of proposed dis
reputable deeds of few of it's
counties.-Junction City Union.
In connection with the above
we are happy to state that the
convention at Lawrence, Aug. IA,
at which, according to some of the
papers, "the whole State would be
represented" turned out a ridicu-
lous failure. Only five counties
were represented at the "repudia-
tors convention" to wit: Leaven-
worth, Douglas, Franklin, John.
son and Anderson. Those pres
ent were evidently ashamed OF
themselves, as their proceedings
were in secret, and, except the ap-
pointment of an executive commit.
tee, nothing has yet been made
public. So dies reputation in
Kansas.

VVhas Egypt I. Worth TO Eng


If Russia after the war can obtain
possession of Armenia, or Bulgaria,
or Roumelia, or Constanople itself, and
deems it for her interest 60 do so, she
will most assuredly not be restrained
by any lack of q precedent for annexa-
ton after conquest. There is not
great power In existence in whose an
nails she could not find ample justifica-
ton II she required, It and assuredly
no reasonable exception could be TAX
en- TO her appropriation of the fruits
of victory by the power which holds
Gibraltar, Malta, and India. More
over, there is absolutely no reason why
the occupation of Egypt should not be
undertaken with the sanction and con-
sent of Turkey herself. The Turks,
to do them justice, care little or moth
| ing about moral force or international
| presidents. What they want is ma
terial aid, and short of armed assis-
lance, which we are not prepared to
give, the service they would most
value would be pecuniary assistance.
At the present crisis, money is the
most urgent need of Turkey, and there
is ground to think that the Porte
would gladly transfer its suZerain
rights over Egypt to England, if we
would purchase the capitalized value
OF the reversion of the Egyptian tribute.
This tribute in round numbers amounts
to 100000 year, and at 80 years.
purchase its value would be Ell ,000,-
600. AS the tribute, however, is al
ready mortgaged for tlIe payment OF
the loans of 1871, amounting to close
upon f9, OOO, 600, its salable value can
not be estimated at more than fl2,-
O00, 900. For q sum of half this
amount paid down in cash the Porte
would be willing enough to cede to En-
l1ndi the suzerainy of Egypt. If
am told that TO give money to Turkey
at this moment would pc detrimental
TO the cause of Russia, can only say
that what we have to consider are not
the interests of Russia any more than
those of Turkey, but the interests OF
England.-The Nineteenth Century.

INLAND Farms.

For twenty years We have ad
vocated the cultivation of our
smooth uplands. AS usual in new
countries, the first settlers select
ed claims including timber and
water, anG ofcourse bottom lands,
because that joins the timber. AS
these earliest settlers began TO
fence up their lands, and at the
same time engage largely IN stock
raising, they began to tell the
seekers after homes that nothing
but the bottom lands were fit for
cultivation, that the uplands were
only fit for grazing, until the inn
preston became quite general that
this was true. There are still
few of this class left, who let no
occasion pass for dIscouraging any
one from making a farm on the
prairie, because they want room
for their herds to Craze, without
being compelled to buy the land.
Some Of them are frank enough
to admit, what all of them desire,
that no more people should be en-
Outraged to settle in this country.
They do not want neighbors.
They are content to lead a life of
standardization, care nothing for
society, and are willing that their
children should follow their ex-
ample.
OF course all this class hate the
Land Agents, the newspapers and
the railroads, because they are try
ing to induce immigration.
From year to year the value of
the uplands is becoming better
known, and each years experience
only serves to confirm our opinion
formed many years ago.
Experience has proved beyond
all question, that with deep cult
walton, the uplands will withstand
drouth as well, and floods much
better, than the bottom lands.
All crops raised in thOIstate. ex-
cept occasionally corn, succeed as
well or better on the prairie. All
acknowledge that it is the best for
all kinds Of fruit.
The uplands arc pleasantest and
healthiest for residences. The up
land farmer can work his land
more days in a year, and cultivate
more acres with the same amount
of labor.
With all these advantages, the
uplands are rapidly in favor.
Some of our best stock men,
prefer to build good shelter for
their stock on the prairies rather
than depend on the timber, and
dig wells and pump water with
windmills, rather than depend on
the water of the creeks.
We have no hesitation whatever
in expressing the opinion, that
good upland prairie will return to
the cultivator q larger net profit,
than any other land in Kansas, or
in the world.
Plenty of such land can be had
in almost all of the older counties,
convenient to market, for from
four to seven dollars per acre.
Such land will not go a begging
for purchasers much longer.
