A ROUGH JOKE. i.
rH. elMR WHICH WAS PLAYRD ON An UHsUs-
PRCrING DAkKEY-HR GETS THRASRlNG
INTENDED FOR ANOTHER MAN.

Yesterday afternoon John wilkins was
tried IN Justice Cary's Court for an assault on
"Curly Dick" negro working at saloon on
Carson street The complaining witness came
into Court with his head bandaged up and
green patch over one eye.
AN UNPRovoKED ASSAULT.
Dick testified that he was engaged In his
regular matutnal spittoon cleaning when up
came Wilkens, and without a word knocked
him down and continued doing so as fast as
he got up.
The Court-Hsd you done anything to him
prior to the assault.
The Witnsss-No, sab, TO de Lord, no sab !;
hope to be coon, sab, if l ebber sot eyes OH
him befoah.
The Court-No remarks? no insinuatlons
The Witness-Nebbsr remarked Rothln !;
nebber owned situation since | left de
Souf, sab.
AN IMPORTANT WITNESS.
Mrs, Wilkins testified that she was passing
the saloon en- route to Olcovich's to purchase
some ruching when the negro deliberately
souirted some water from hose over her
bonn 1t, which cost $50, and her new polonaise,
which she was wearing for the first time, and
ended by directing the stream ssaarely IN her
face. She informed her husband of the in
suit and he went down and thrashed the
darby.
Several witnesses were produced who swore
that they had seen negro squirting water on
a lady about fifteen minutes before the assault,
but could not identify the man in Court, as
his face was SO badly disfgured. The case
was dismissed.
THB JOKE ON DICK.
About an hour afterwards the darby who
was 50 badly beaten assaulted Pete, another
negro who worked in an adjoining barber
shop. It transpired that Pete was really the
man who had turned the hose on the lady. A
few minutes after he saw the Infatuated hus
band coming across the Capitol square, and
calling Curly Dick from the next saloon, asked
him to hold the hose while he went in and
turned off the water. Dick held the hose,
suspeeting nothing, and as soon as the hus-
band arrived he was mauled almost to death,
while the man who should have been thrashed
was locking through a window enjoying the
fun, holding his sides and stufing red hand
ksrchief in his mouth to keep from being
heard
The unfortunate victim of the joke got
wind of the trick and came upon Pete in
saloon just as he WAS entertaining crowd
with q graphic narration of the scene. he
tackled him at once, and the two men INDUCED
in q rough and tumble fight for about five
minutes. When separated both were badly
used up. There were no further arrests, and
if any enc wishes to see mad darby, 1T Is
only necessary to remark, Hold dat nozzle,
Dick" or enquire if he has joined the War
rem hose company.

STOCKS.

The only stocks showing special strength,
according to the table of fluctuations, are
Belcher, Alta and Benton, all of which, with
Crown Point, have been lively. This is large
" due to manidulation by the insiders, who
cannot afford to let the interest in stock spec
ulation to decline. An improvement IN Alta,
a reported change of formation in Con. Vr-
ginia (Which is not generally believed) and a
few bits of favorable news from Belcher have
constituted the stock in trade of gossiping
spectators There seems to be q steady In
crease in the demand for outside securities,

EDITOR TRUE NoRTHERNER {.

IDilOh 1hbE
As the readers OF the True Northerner have
had their attention called 0 the subject OF
book agents lately, and that in not very com
plimentary manner, wish to say word there
on. While am not book agent. yet am not
IN favor Of wholesale slaughter OF them for
the reason that some OF the best men and wo-
men IN the country are engaged in that busi-
ness. Il is an established fact IN many cases
al least, that 1t is not the use bu, the abuse
that makes the evil.
AS there has been good deal said about that
" History" let me tell you how one man saved
himself from the general lamentat.on that is
heard from those who did sign for said WORK.
An agent called on him stating he was writing
the history of the county asking him questions
as 70 how long he had been in the county. how
large bis farm, etc, concluding by passing the
book over AMI telling him where to s,gu his
name. The farmer replied. No, sir" What
do you want this history to come oui without
your name in it, an old sett!er al that @r The
farmer said Yes, sir. do just that Many
others would have done well mad they gwen
the same answer.
Many an honest person, out OF employment,
and not wishing TO be idle, has been ed to en-
gage IN this business under apparently fair
promises, who otherwise undoubtedly would not.
We have an Instance right here in this place
that came under my personal obseryation.--
Charles a. Bailey, OF Niles, came here, pur-
porting to be general agent Of Union Pub
fishing House Of Chicago stating that be de-
sired to get some agents TO canvass for the
Worlds Encyclopedia of Wonders and Curl
riosites'; said agent must be of good morals
As to his, he referred 10 quite num5et-ths
Baptist minister or this place, Brooss Of Ka!a-
mazoo, and others. Finally he selected e. b.
as one OF his victims, made proposition to
HIM, that if he would take al agencv, paying
FIVE dollars for a specimen copy, this TO include
prospectus for canvasslng, +. B. TO canvass six
days, and said be, Mr.. Z. b. whenever you
want to quit the business / will (when You give
me notlce) come aud get the books and pay You
your monev back This seemed fair enough,
but mark the sequel: Z. y. went to work ard
at the end of the six days gave Mr.. Bailey no.
tlce that he wished to quit. Some time elapsed
then Mr.. Bailey wrote that he passed through
Paw Paw such day but had no time TO stop
Again wrote, would "be in Paw Paw next week
and would call" But he came not This was
2S days ago-what fearful long ways 1t is to
Paw Paw.
There is bat one way to get rd Of this great
nuisance-book agents, and It's accompanying
evils, that is, totally ignore them. You are not
obliged to buy book from them; there is no
law, either human or divine. that VIII compel
you to. You can get one of the bookseller in
your own town, and you Will get it as cheap as
you would from book agent, without running
the additional risk of being budozed into buy
ing the book for the sake OF getting rid of hlm.
Don't patronize book agents under any c.rcum-
stances if you wish to abate this growing evil.

GLEN HOUSE, N H., July IA terrible ac-
cident, caused by drunken driver, occurred
on the carriage road from the Glen House to
the summit CT Mt. Washington this afternoon,
about mile below the halfway house. One
of the six-horse mountain wagons, containing
party OF nine persons, the last load Of excur-
sonsts from Michigan 10 make the descent of
the mountain was toppled over and one lady
killed and five others injured. Soon after start
ing from the summit the passengers discovered
that the driver had been drinking while wait
ing for the party to descend. They left this
wagon a short distance from the summit and
walked to the half way house, four miles below.
where one OF the employees OF the Carriage
Road Company assured them there was no bad
place below that and that he thought 1t would
be safe for them to resume their seats with the
driver who wassswith them. Soon after passing
the halfway house, in driving around curve
too rapidly, the carriage was tipped over, throw
ing the occupants into the woods and on to
rocks. Mrs. Ira Chichester, Of Ailegan, was in
stantly killed, her husband, who was sitting at
the other side, being only sligtly bruised. or
the other occupants Mrs. NJ L. Towsley of Kali
amazoo, had her left arm broken and received
a slight cut on the head; Miss Jessie Bernard
OF Kalamazoo, slightly injured on the head /;
Miss Ella Mellen and Mrs. Ferguson OF Romeo.
and Miss Emma Lamb of Howell, slightly in
escaped without any injuries. The injured
were brought at once to the Glen House. The
driver is probably fatally injured. Mrs. Van
derbeen of Chicago received slight internal
injuries.

1t is absurd to say, as some writers do, that
what is demanded from the schools by sensi-
ble people is the arrangement of a curriculum
higher than that now in use. IL is really the
reverse; what is wanted is simpler, more
compact course of studies, impaired by more
intelligent, vivid, and inspiring wav than that Ia
operation at present. There are already too
many studies and too advanced ones in the
school courses. Fewer studies and best teach
ing are what are beginning 10 be recognized as
the practical requirements OF the school world.

The trustees OF Columbia college in New
York city have voted to put school of potl-
cal science in operation, designed to prepare
young men for the duties of public lfe." The
course OF study will cover three years, embrac-
ing the history Of philosophy, the literature OF
political science, the constitutional history OF
Europe, England and the United States, the
Roman law and codes derived therefrom, a
comparison OF the constitutional law OF Eu-
ropean states, OF the United States, and the
different states Of our union. diplomacy, inter-
national law, systems of administration, poht
ical economy, and statistics Degees will be
conferred, and such a school ought to have
plenty Of students. There is no danger of men
understanding too much history or science. nor
are those men who have mastered such sub
jects likely to stay in the background. The
widespread craze on the currency question in
1878, which has not wholly subsided, shows
how vltslly important were the lessons Of his
tory, for 1t found its strength in the classes
most ignorant OF that subject. But 10 get in
to public life, these doctors of philosophy Gas
they will be caled) must mingIe freely IN polt
ical meetings, caucuses, and conventions, and
must take observations OF our boards Of super
visors, state legislatures, courts o. justice, and
executive proceedings. They must be ready to
learn OF the humblest men, and must not des-
plse good sound sense because 1t exists in
rough exterior or in ungrammatical phrases
