/ GARFIELD CIGARs.-A prominent member
of Court in this city one morning not long
since appeared at the Courthouse with a
rather good-looking bundle of eighteen CT
gars, and in an apparently somewhat conf
Dental manner passed them around among
prominent members OF the bar and others,
some Of whom are now looking for legisla-
tive and the other election honors, and init
mated that they were a remembrance from
General Garfield. The honorable recipients
accepted the invitation extended to 'take
one with Garfield" and thought as they
pulled away at them with unusual dignity
and grace that there was something easiiy
discernible in the flavor of ths Havanas that
indicated the eminent occasion and sure Re
publican Presidential success. Il would
have been a strong card for Garfield with
that favored few, and the bewitching favor
lingering from that Presidential smoke
would have continued as strong political
tonic throughout the campaign, but for the
unfortunate fact that it Immediately leaked
out that the Garfield treat didn't come from
the Fest at all, but were purchased from q
tnird.rats cigar stand up town, presided over
by Democrat, and that the whole bundle
only cost two bits. And now there Is not
member of that whole smoking psrty that
and as circumstantial evidence tending to
prove an abb, everyone of them swear they
don't smoke, and never did in their lives.
A FIsE TRoUT.-A certain gentleman of
this city, who is sometimes knewn by the
name Of Hamilton, upon returning from his
recent trip to Lake Tahoe, went wild over
his success at trout fishing up there on a GER
tain day. when he says he caught q fine ono
that weirhed over eight pounds. He has
taken great delight in informing his many
friends Of this fine catch, and in telling it
always stands at a little more than full hight
lie had passed off his trout story with great
success until yesterday, when an unfortunate
accident occurred to him which prevents his
being seen by his friends. A conductor who
came down from trip on the railroad over
the mountains, states it in this wise An
Indian came aboard the train TO ride between
two stations IN the mountains, and instead Of
taking the usual free ride on the platform,
took seat in the car, and when the con-
duetor came along nc told the Indian he must
go out on the platform, to which the
native replied, "Umph me pay fare ne
got heap money. One big plow man come MP
from Sacramento and buy my fsh-Leap big
trout weigh eight pounds Plow man give
me heap money" If that conductor had not
come to the city it would have been all right
for Hamilton; but when it was mentioned
TO the latter yesterday he set 'em up to
everybody present and in hearing, but hasn't
been seen since by his nearest friends.
