BURGLARY.
Negro Thieves at Work ont ON the
fernando ROad-BurElartes ana
RobberIes-One of the kOD'
bers Arrested by Dep
uty- sheriff.

Last Monday night the grocery store OF
Mr.. SIegler, on the fernando road, near
Provinces, was broken open by thieves. Mr..
Siegler heard the robbers, and his alarm
frightened them away. The thieves then
visited the grocery and residence of John
Heinrich, a few hundred yards away, and.
cutting the Stats, entered the grocery. They
broke into the MONEY drawer and stole thirty
dollars. Going upstairs, they gathered up a
quantity of clothing, gold watch and chain,
and other things, which they rolled up in a
sheet. While so doing John Heinrich awoke
and, seizing his shotgun, ran out he saw
a negro man making his escape into the road,
and he recognized him. Yesterday Deputy
Sheriff Harris was out in the neighborhood,
and arrested negro on Carr avenue, on the
charge of committing the burglaries and rob-
berries. Mr.. Heinrich recognized the negro
as the man whom he saw escaping from his
house. The negro was conveyed to the couD-
ty jail, but will be brought out to-day to have
an investigation

thirteen thousand dollars be stricken out of

thirteen thousand dollars" be stricken out of
the resolution.
President Folkes took the floor and argued
that the amendment of Mr.. Rhett should be
adopted. Those who read the article might
think and believe that thirteen thousand dol
lars had been stolen, or that detalcatlUn
had occurred, while the question was the al
legged loss In money by not taking the schol-
astic census properly or correctly. The only
transportation that could be charged was
probably the amount ordered paid out for
having the census taken,
Mr.. Rhett's motion to strike out certain
words was put and carried, and the resolu-
ton as thus amended was adopted.
MIR. Randle moved to appoint a committee
of investigation, and to make report. Car
ried.
President Folkes appointed on that COM
mittee Messrs. Edgington, Beamish, Duffy
and Estes.
MMr. Edgington declined to serve on the
committee. The secretary felt that he
(Edgington) had something to do with the
investigation, which he had not, but for this
reason motives of delicacy compelled him to
ask to be relieved from acting on that COM
mittee.
President Folkes thereupou appointed Mr..
Lawhorn on the committee, in place of Mr..
Edgington. On motion, the meeting ad-
lourned.

Little Johnny on the Pigeon.

Ny sister says no man witch shoots
pidgfn matches shal marry her, but nc
man Wude want to marry her, I guess
as long as the pidgin shootin held out
COS that wud be fun enuf. When she
said it her young man got red like beet
but didn't say nothin. Mex day he asst
my uncle Ned did he kno enybody WITCH
wud like to hi jam>up good shotgun.
Uncle Ned he said >" I'd like to hi it my
own self if it was a good pidgin gun,
but ] CESS it amt, COS it has come nifty
nj spilin match" Some pidgins carrys
letters, same as the postoffice, and one
time wen my sisters young man went
away he cot one of our pidgins and took
it a long for to fetch back letter to her,
jest for fier. Next day wenever that
girl herd the doreybel ring she was jest
wild, cos she thot it was her letter come,
for her idee was that the pidgin wude

Air Freaks in Mines.
Gold Hill News.

A representative of the News yester>
terday fell into conversation with Hugh
Lamb, who for nearly seven years has
been foreman of the Consolidated Vir-
ginia mine, and from him learned some
queer things in relation to the ventiIa.
tion of that mine. He says that about
a year ago there was period of six weeks
that the air changed from downcast to
an upcast, at tie G. and G. shaft, and
from an upcast to downcast at the Con-
solidated Virginia shaft. During that
period the heat in the mine became in
tense. A somewhat similar but worse
change has recently been effected, by
which the O. and G. shaft has an upcast
of air without the corresponding down
cast at the Consolidated Virginia, except
in the south compartment of the shaft,
which has been chan bered off from the
Their compartments, or "boarded up
as It'll called. In consequence of this
change the heat in the mine is intense
He carried thermometer all through
the 1850 level, and not place was
found below 10S degrees Fahrenheit.
The 1850 level is as hot as the 1850
Lamb is OF the opinion, however, that
this will last but few days longer, and
that when the connection is made be.
tween the 1000 level and the 1910 of
the California, the air currents will be
restored to their usual and normal con-
dition, and the bonanza mines will be as
they ever have been, the best ventilated
mines of the Comstock. Mr.. Lamb fur-
Their says that when the wind shifts from
its accustomed southern quarter into the
north, ventilation is always bad in the
mines, and that we have had grea
deal of north wind within the last two
weeks. II is because of the impossibility
of men working on the 1850 and 1850
levels that they have been discharged.
1t was necessity, both as humanitarian
measure and for the interests of the
stockholders of the mine. When better
ventilation is secured they will be re-
turned.
St. Landry democrat., 1879-02-08

great deal when we remember that
Startle has carried him quarter to road
wagon in 323 seconds, Dexter a halt to
a road wagon in 1:6O5, Dexter mile to
a road wagon in 2:12a, and Lady Palmer
and Flatbush Maid two miles to road
wagon: in 5;014. Not one of these per-
formances has ever been equalled by any
other gentleman to road wagon,
After looking through his wonderfully
collection, we were gratifed to hear Mr..
Bonner say that probably next year he
would let the pnblic see Edwin Forrest
and two or three of his teams trot.
we mistake not, Hartford will be selected
as the theatre for Edwin Forests dis
play.
There are thousands Of we'll TODD men
in the country, enthusiastic road riders,
who have been trying for years to get a
horse which could show them a mile in
2:2O. They have spent money and time
in the pursuit of this object, and when
one of them has been successful he has
looked upon his horse as the greatest
treasure of earth. He has walked proud
~ among his fellow creatures and words
have failed to describe his happiness.
A 2;;20 road horse is SO rare as to rep
resent a small fortune. Mr.. Bonner is a
man to be envied. In his town stable he
has ten 2:20 & yers and at his farm he has
score or more which either have beaten
2:2O or give promises of doing SO at an
early day. His marvellous collection OF
trotters certainly makes him the foremost
road rider Of this or any other age.
