Railroad Tax case Decided.

Tucson, December 10th.-Judge Charles
Silent decided to day, in an action brought by
Pinal county to recover taxes from the South.
ern Pacific Railroad, that the act of the Ter
ritory passed in 1877 which exempts the
Southern Pacific Railroad from taxation for
four years, is not in contraventlon of the Act
of Congress, which forbids the granting of
special privileges to private corporations. The
tax levied against the railroad company he
decided therefore to be void.

The Letter nIfIins Case.

Los ANGELS, December 10th.-The ex-
animation of j. w. McFatridge on a charge
of rifing valuable letters at the San Diego
Postofce commenced before United States
Commissioner Whiting this morning. The
Deputy Postmaster testified to defendants
employment in the Office. S. P. Jones,
whose certificate of deposit was distracted,
testified that he expected such certificate,
but had not received it, and officers of the
bauk testified that the draft had been pre-
seDted by Hidales and paid. Hidales was
then put on the stand and gave a circum-
stantial account Of his acquaintance with the
accused during the course of which the latter
informed him (Hidales) that ne had a
scheme from which both could make
money On election night, between II
and 1 o'clock, McFatridge took hirn
near the Postoffice, where he told
him to await his return. When he came
back he handed Hidales some papers, and
told him to take them to Guaymas and other
parts in Mexico, get them cashed and return
one-half of the proceeds per express to him
at San Diego. Hidales took the papers to
his room and found them to be checks aggre-
eating $4,000; five for s., 600 and one for
$1,000. On the 4th of November he handed
him (Jones) certificate for 81, 100, which
Hidales had cashed in this city and which
led to his arrest. The six drafts first spoken
of had been so concealed about his person
that when he was searched by the Sheriff they
were not discovered, and after he had been
locked up he burned them. The further ex-
animation was continued till 10 A. NJ to-mor
row.

A Boy of Pluck.

Mr.. Adolph Real has stock ranch on
the Mantinez, ten miles east of San
Antonio, near Converse depot. Mr.. Real
has 9-year-old son whose name is Emil.
Emil, accompanied by his little dog,
went into the timber on the creek, hunt
ing cotton-tail rabbits. In short time
the little dog chased a rabbit into a
hollow tree, and sat down at the hole to
inform his master by barking. This
is what the boys call freeing rabbit"
but the same term is applied when the
rabbit takes shelter in hole in the
earth.) When Emil arrived at the tree,
he thrust his hand into the hollow, but
instan lily, groaning with pain, withdrew
it, having, in the last joint of his index
finger, the unmistakable wounds of the
fangs Of rattlesnake. The child did not
fly off shrieking, but at once drew out
his jack knife, and, splitting the end of
his finger, continued sucking it until
nearly all the venom was drawn out.
The next morning Mr.. Real, armed with
an ak, went to the tree. and, on cutting
out a big chip, found full-grown
specimen of the terrible crotalus with
five rattles, still holding the fort, while
the terrified rabbit, which had crawled
up the hollow past the snake, was in the
same position which it took on first
entering, and was nearly dead with
terror, fully realizing the proximity of
the fatal reptile beneath. DR.. Hadra
has put the finishing touch to the cure
partially effected by the child of his own
motion.-Sdn AntOniO Herald.

An Odd Custom.

The annual blessing of the Neva, in
Russia. took place this year with very
imposing ceremonies, the Emperor and
family attending the solemn demonstra-
ton. Hundreds drank of the waters
and filed bottles with it, while few
lunatics washed their sins away by
bathing in the river, although it was
much below the freezing point. If the
Emperor would turn his attention to
blessing the people instead of the
river, it would be better for himself and
his dynasty. There are some liberal
minds in Russia that dare to think
privately, of course-that the river will
take care of itself, which seems to be
more than the reigning family can do.

A Mechanical Watchdog.

That the greatest ingenuity should
be displayed in the invention of
machinery to economize manual labor
is at once natural and cre,litable, but
we did not anticipate that the builder
of the future would be called upon to
fit mechanical Watchdog to the street
door so as to guard the house he may
be required to construct. Most per-
sons are aware that by introducing a
flame of gas into an open tube, whether
metal or glass, the tube will sound; in
fact, we might easily produce singing
flames. There are silent speaking
tubes; that is to say, tubes that, under
ordinary circumstances, do not utter a
sound, but if a door be opened a
draught is created, then the glass vi
brates, and the most startling noises
result. A glass of this description has
been contrived in which, when jet Of
gas burns, the sound of dog barking
is produced, should the street-door be
opened. Thus may the house be
guarded by mechanical Watchdog
