A Busted Murphy.

A GAINESVILLE signer of the Murphy
pledge went to Wheeling few days ago,
and after transactlng his business and
while waiting for the train to take him
home, was induced to forget his pledge
to such an extent as to get drunk. He
fell asleep AS soon as the cars started, and
the conductor had no easy task to awaken
him. After he WAS aroused, instead of
presenting his ticket, he handed the con-
ductor his Murphy pledge. The con-
ductor punched the pledge and wrote on
it, zone drunk" The Barntsvllle CEN
tleman's dismsy may be imagit ed when
the next day he exhibited his pledge To
prove he was Murphy."-Jettrsonian

STATE SECURITI STEADY, except
Louisiana ConsolS, which advanced Il
per cent.
SToCKS-Thc market although irregu-
lar in the early dealings was In the main
higher, the advance ranging from to
/ per cent, but subsequently, weaker
feeling prevailed and there was i decline
of / to : per cent. AT the second call a
partial recovery occurred, but during
the afternoon the market WAS character
lied by considerable depression and
prices fell to 4! per cent from the
highest point of the day. The greatest
fall WAS in coal stocks, Lake Shore and
Michigan Central. The decline attracted
attention from the fact that most of the
roads were reported to be doing large
grain business, but it was generally
attributed TO the sales of long stock
by the operators and recently vehement
bulls. At first 1t was reported that this
Spectator, then that and the other spccu-
intor were selling, and before the close of
the day the name OF nearly every promi-
nrnt operator was named in this COnneC-
ton. Nothing definite transplred, but
certain it is somebody WAS selling and
that quite freely. New York Central
declared a regular quarterly dividend of
2 per cent. The transactions on the
Stock Exchange aggregated $4,000
shares, OF which 5000 were New \ ork

A DESPERATE FIGHT.


The Fury Of wOuuded Stag.
THE Eureka (Cal.) Sentinel re-
Gently contained this:
From DR.. j. NJ. Bailey, who has
been in the Ruby range of noun,
tains, we learn the particulars of q
desperate fight with wounded
stag, in which an Indian was killed,
and the doctor himself narrowly
escaped a violent death. The doc
tor had wounded the deer which
took refuge in a low growth Of
cedar. Securing the services of
two Indians, the doctor went in
pursuit. Suddenly a cracking of
the bushes was heard, when the
stag, which had become enraged at
the close chase, appeared in sight,
and, charging upon the party,
caught the doctor on its broad ant
lers. Before he could realize the
situation, he was tossed in the air
by the maddened beast, and sent
rolling over the ground, though for
tunately not sustaining much in
jury. One of the Indians, seeing
the turn affairs had taken, fled, but
the other, apparently paralyzed with
fear, seemed rooted to the spot, and
to him the deer next turned. The
animal rushed upon the terrified
man, and, catching him on his ant
lers, the luokless Indian was sent
whirling through the air distance
of about thirty feet, and iell fiat on
his face on the frozen ground, The
doctor sought safety in flight,
but the animal, perceiving his
intention, started in pursuit, and
he barely had time to climb low
cedar tree before he was again
brought face to face with the brute.
Having lost his pistol when the
deer first made its attack, he was
left without any means of defence
save a common jackknife, and he
endeavored to stab the animal in
the eyes, but the deer successfully
parried the blows with his autlers.
The doctor cut a branch from the
tree, and, tying the open knife TO
it by means of a handkerchief, again
commenced the attack, this time
more successfully, for a we'll
directed blow severed the iugular
vein in the animals neck. The
fight was over, but not without one
more desperate attempt ON the part
Of the brave animal, which imme-
diately on receiving its death,
wound, drew itself up, its eyes
flashing like balls of fire, and
seemed preparing itself for one
moro charge but it fell to the
earth dead. The doctor descended
from the tree aud hastened to the
Indian, and found him in o dying
condition. One Of the aptlers had
penetrated the abdomen, the other
the region Of the spinal column,
the antler breaking off and leaving
a portion about three inches, in the
Indians body. The other Indian
had come up by this time a fire
was built and preparations made to
remove the wounded man to his
camp, but he died in q few minutes.
