OUR SHoorING-The Captains com
pany had not seen much service, and
one morning the Federal cavalry sur
prised them. The boys did the best
they could; they broke, ran. and rallied
in squads and fired. Some of the boys
were wounded, few were killed. The
Captain, who was red headed, ran on
foot (as he lost his horse) until his face
was as red as his head. He saw the
crisis. So hs took position in the
middle OF the road, and waving his
sword, he made this order to his troops:
''Men, for God Almighty's sake, quit
shooting; il only makes them worse J"

a pugilistic miner who distinguished himself
in glove fight at Eureka, has since had an
interesting tussel with a rock in a tunnel, On
the first round Hancock made all the play,
and lodged several effectual blows with his
pick on the body of his adversary On the
recond round, however, the rock abandoned
the defensive, and bounding on the agile miner,
knocked him out of time in one blow The
rock at last accounts was nothing the worse

of the public comprehension before the
present generation grows SO old as to nix its
thoughts upon things above. where
nothing that Louisiana politics have
touched can ever enter. The Mon
treal Orangemen need to be brought
down to the dead level OF common sense be-
fore the 18th of July comes round again;
and they are SO far above it at present that
1t is none too early to begin operations, SO
that they may be saved from marksmen
that would be more bungling than the
quick-triggered Doctor, but still destructive
enough to play the mischief with targets
more sensitive than glass balls. We would
suggest also, as needing humiliation, the
theories Of most would-be finance reformers;
but the trouble with these is that they are
numerous enough to overtax the endurance
even of man who could fire six thousand
shots in eight hours. Besides. there is not
substance enough to them to aim at, and
even if they were hit and broken there
would not be in them anything as heavy

They have been there before The fond
ness of the tramp for walking on railroads,
particularly when he is drunk, is known to
many convincing reiutation of the erro-
neous belief that nobody ever saw dead
tramp. But when he leaves the track and
takes to the cars he aims dangerous blow
at his own identity and at numerous other
things of considerably greater consequence.
The most searching analysis fails to dis
cover any traces Of tickets or passes about
his clothes. AS an ornament TO drawing
room car he is somewhat lacking and the
odors he disseminates are not those OF Jean
Maria Farina or of Lubin except when he
exhales o suspicion Of new mown hay"
And when he multiplies himself by two
score and takes entire possession of train,
as he did in Iowa few days ago, he de-
stroys one of the very few remaining rights
which Wall street and the CHANGERS have
left to Western railway companies.
If the tramp really insists upon riding
in the cars let him respect the conven-
tionalities of life and associate with his own
kind. Every we'll equipped road in the
West owns cars designed expressly for car
rying swine, and as the destination of oil of
these is the slaughter house they would be
sure to carry the tramp to his proper stop
ping place. On trains which have no
cattle cars the tramp might be carried in
smoking cars. We admit that the objection
may be urged that most smoking cars are
too vile for decent swine to livein, but we
triumphantly reply that the tramp is not
that kind OF o hog. If there is no abattoir
at the end of the line the Council Bluffs
plan OF setting him to work will be fully as
effective as the butchers knife in causing
the doomed beings to disappear from NOR
tai view.

Secretary Hahn's statement of the fnan-

TO make would-bc depositors rush with

but II now seems that the secretarys con-
fession was an error. Less than three

that the management OF the bank was good,
the books, which balanced, were kept in n
plain and intelligent manner, the officers
were exercising the strictest economy re-
garding expenses and taking every precau-
ton to guard against losses. II this be
true and who are we that we should

bank examiner Pa question naturally
arises as to whether there may not

Atlantic to the Pacific, his shortest plan
would be to round Cape Horn ard not to
waste his time fumbling about the shores OF
the Gulf of Mexico, or up the Amazon, or the

through. Although Dr. Petermann does not
hold that passage by Smiths, Jones or
Lancaster Sound is impossible, as this
comparison might imply, he is very clear
in his declaration Of the opinion that the

believes that open water will be found

self freely and hopefully, and he illustrates
the likelihood of success in that direction
by a comparison happily drawn from the
late experiences of Mr.. Stanley in Africa.
Stanley sought the sources of the Congo
and explored with the current, and, as the
current is toward the Arctic Sea at Behring
Straits and outward by Smiths Sound. he
apprehends that the enormous reduction
in resistance due to this change in the di-
rection Of advance will have an important
bearing on the result.
For one theory of Arctic discovery, of
which great deal has been said lately, the
Doctor has no mercy. He believes in ships,
not sledges. Sledges as auxiliaries to ships
he deems may and must be useful, but
sledges that are to displace ships, or only
have ships as their auxiliaries, he is con-
WINGED can be Of no value. Because
that is the theory Of Arctic col
onies he is against the experiment
of those colonies, which, moreover, he be-
lieves cannot succeed because of the i'm
possibility of training men to endure the
Arctic night. In short, we may safely re-
fer the reader to this pleasant colloquy with
an eminent geographer as to reservoir Of
important facts, keen views and clear judg-
ments on the interesting theme of Arctic
exploration.

We heartily add our humble word to that
of our monthly contemporaries that have
lately suggested archery as means Of
amusement. 1t is cheap, healthful and
stimulative of the perceptive faculties. 1t
enables man to crook his elbow without
incurring the penalty of headache, and it
allows the female figure to assume poses
which, while eminently proper, are provo
cative of Irritation and matrimony. But
we must dissent from those who declare
that this noble sport has been neglected of
late. What man lives who cannot name
numerous prominent persons who have
proved themselves proficient with Robin
Hoods favorite weapon?
For instance, there are certain we'll known
gentlemen on Wall street who disseminate
wondrous tales to influence the market |;
their skill with the long bow and their con-
fdent dependence upon it is undeniable.
Akin to them, and even more skilful, are
the ''bucket shop" brokers', who promise
fabulous fortunes for infnitesimal invest
ments. Robin Hood himself would env;-
ously turn as green as his own traditional
garments could he view from the eternal
shades the dexterity with which these gen.
tlemen bend their mighty bows. Then there
are the Potter Committees Witnesses, the
twang of whose bowstrings has resounded
through the length and breadth of the
land, unmarried by the applause which the
hearers were too astounded to bestow.
Orator Kearney and many lesser members
of his own and affiliated orders, among
whom the greenbackers are not to be for
gotten, have generally drawn the cord of
the noble weapon with such force that the
arrow has pierced the bow instead Of the
target. And, magnanimously turning our
eyes for moment from our own land,
what mighty tug Gortschakoff gave. the
string as he admitted that England's
acquisition of Cyprus and her protectorate
of Asatic Turkey was perfectly satisfactory
to Russia
But towering above all the giants who
have drawn the long bow this season is the
ex-President Of the Southern Confederacy.
Standing upon platform in Mississippi two
days ago and fixing his eye upon target
which he had extemporized from the peace
of the South, he ''notched" a shaft and with
grasp almost superhuman he drew back
the string, remarking that all the South's
disasters ''came from the perversion of the
compact of union and the usurpation by
the federal government Of undelegated
powers" Doubtless many good
fellow who had fought valiantly for the lost
couoo ood with mora madam wao,ouo in
stinctively drew his hat over his ears and
eyes for fear that the string might snap aud
create terrible havoc. Butno such accident
occurred, and when the arrow is found for
it overshot the mark so high that nobody
could see tit will be found to have fol-
lowed course peculiar to boomerangs and
buried itself deeply in the archer himself
