rule penetrate the scalp perpendicularly
but at an angle. When the angle OF
the different hairs is the same, it is pos

take, but if they are by some freak of

Capture Of an Indian Desperado
From the HeaIdsburg Enterprise.

Joaquin, the noted Indian desperate
who has been q terror in these parts
for several years past, was captured by
William B. Reynolds on last Monday
night, at rancheria on the ranch OF
Frank Cunningham, about three miles
from this city, down Dry Creek. The
particulars OF the capture, as related by
Mr.. Reynolds, are quite interesting
He heard that Joaquin was at the
above rancheria, and procuring the as
sistance of John Ellington and Charles
Brumfield went to the above named
place, and after taking reconnaissance
Of the ground distributed his posse at
places so as to prevent possible es-
cape of the outlaw. Bill then went
about with candle in one hand and
pistol in the other, examining the diff
ferent Irjuns" as they lay in groups
asleep. He was Just about giving UP
the chase when he noticed group OF
three sauaws, and, from their peculiar
manner of repose, thought that the cul-
prit might possibly be among them.
He noticed that one of them was lying
few inches higher than the rest. His
next step was to see how many neither
limbs there might be in that gIoap.
This he had TO do by ocular inspec-
ton, which ne did, and discovered that
there were eight ms: cad Of six, two Of
which were covered with over-alls. He
caused the elevated squaw to roll down
from her perch, and there underneath
her. was the long sought ontlaw, and
before the Indian had chance to
spring for his pistol. large Colts re-
volver. Bill leveled his bull dog" at his
head and told him to lie still or he
would blow his brains out. He then
called to Ellington, who proceeded to
tie him. The prisoner was brought to
this city, and the next day taken to San
ia Rosa. joaquin is described as a
man weighing about 100 pounds six
ieet in height, well built, and of large
muscular development. There bad
been several futile attempts made be-
fore to capture him. A reward of 500
had been offered for his arrest dead or
alive, by John Walker and others OF
Sebastopal, whose life he threatened.
He was a terror among the Indians
here, and yet they sought to conceal
him, and Mr.. Reynolds was often
warned by them and told that Joaquin
would surely shoot him, as he was well
armed.

The Game i'm DeadwOod.

A very characteristic incident OF life
in the wild and reckless west, occurred
in one of our popular saloons the other
afternoon. A couple of boys got to
bucking at one another, and hugh
pile of clips and greenbacks were soon
piled up between them. AT last one
called the other and he showed three
queens. The other quietly turned over
three kings. "Take the money" said
the patron of the ladies, as quietly as
though asking the other to take drink.
The man of many kings reached over
to take the pot, when enc OF the other
players interfered and claimed that one
of the kings in the hand of the winner
belonged to him, unless there were five
in the pack. as he laid down two Of
them when the heavy betting began.
The man of the queens rose up quietly
and pulled out a Misunderstanding
bulldog, which he placed in unples SAINT
proximity to the others head. and
simply remarked, drop it." He drop
ped it. and without another word the
game, went on as if nothing had hap

INCIDENTS OF THE WAR.
A Gratined Wish .

A correspondent writing from the
Yorktown peninsula, tells the follow
ing: While coming from scout this
afternoon we called at house and
found couple of ladies, quite young,
and as handsome as Hebe. They
were secesh to the backbone, and each
had slower" in the rebel army; one
of them was at Yorktown, anu only
left the day before to pick his way back
along the York river. and carry such
information as he had gotten from US.
The young lady showed us his photo
graph, q good-lookipg lieutenant, and
hoped we should meet him face TO
face, that he might leave us for dead.
''Oh, if all the Yankees were one
man and had sword here, l should
like to cut his throat"
And she said it with vim, too. We
told her we would take good care Of
Lieutenant White, and see that Miss
Glorrill had an opportunity to change
her name after the battle was over,
hoping for an invitation to the wedding
and as she had called me the Divine
or chaplain of the regiment, proposed
to marry them.

to bury his body"
She spoke of poison in a glass of wa
ten we drank, but l replied that one
look of her angel face, one smile from
her lovely features would be an anti
dote to the rankest poison.
"Yes, and to your hatred fthe south,
too"
The Irritation nearly made her in ia
vor of the Union and us the more SO.
But we had not gone far when we saw
company of soldiers approaching
who brought with them the 'lovy era
corpse upon a litter, returning to hR
sweetheart. He had been ehot while
trying to avoid the quick eye of the.
sharpshooters. near a house upon the
York river shore, where his father had
resided, and where negro informed
the soldier that his mother and sister
were at the house where he had been
in conversation with the ladies, one OF
whom was his sister, and our soldiers
had, after receiving orders, carried him
to be buried. We did not mar the sor-
row of the relatives by stopping to wit
ness the reception of the body. Her
hasty wish that he might come home
dead was speedily and sadly realized.

ladies Eyes Injured by High-Hoeled
Anups.
Boston Letter.


A young lady here went one day to
an oculist with n trouble with her eyes
that threatened frightful results. She
was already in state where reading
was out of the question and other en-
tertainment was fast becoming a tor
ment. The oculist looked at her with
his professional wisdom, asked her
various questions, and then suddenly
amazed her by asking her to put out
ner foot. The foot in its kid boot with
a wicked little high heel was thrust
forth. The doctor eyed it momont
with a stolid face. $50 home," he
said. 'and take off those heels; keep
them off for month, and then come
to me again, and wen see how the
eyes a4el' In month the eyes were
we'll. and the young lady learned by
be- experience and little wise talk how
near she had come to having no eyes Al
all. Ii serves TO show that there Is the
possibility that with that instrument OF
torture constantly at work in the center
of the foot, where so many delicate
nerves and tendons lie that are so inti-
mately connected with all the other
delicate nervs of the body, there
must presently come disarrsngements
and disease that may work fatal mis-
chief with the health.

Who Owns the Land Ia England.

More than half of the soil OF the
United Kingdom is n3minally owned
by some 1000 persons. According TO a
valuable analysis of the very i'll ar.
ranged and incomplete parliamentary
return of the land owners Of the United
Kingdom, published in the Financial Re
form Record for 1873, 421 are the ownt r.
OF % 880,755 acres, or nearly 100000
acres more than one-fourth of the total
area OF the United Kingdom. The
mind is unable to grasp what such a
monopoly costs the country, but certain
features Of it stand forth with a promi-
nence sufficiently notable. In most
absolute sense, the wellbeipg of the
entire population of some 81 000.0OO
souls is placed in the power of a few
thousands. For these thousands the
multitude tolls, and it may be on o.
casion, starves. Hence it is that all
through rural England we have contln-
ually before US that most saddening of
all spectacles, two or three families liv-
ing in great splendor, and hard by
their gates the miserably poor, the
abject slaves of the soil, whose sole
hope in life is too often the workhouse
that famous device against revolution,
paid for by the middle casses-and the
pauper's grave. Our landowners have
not merely burdened the land with
their game preserves; they have tied il
up, and actively conspired to prevent its
due cultivation. Instead of rising to
the true necessities of the case, they
cling to their game, make penal enact
ments about it, and struggle 10 augment
the intensity of the evil, which it is tc
the people, as if the very existence o.
the country depend on bares and rab
bits. In his absolute supremacy the
land owner overrides all justice, takes
precedence of all ordinary creditors or
his helpless tenants estates, and controls
the system of cultivation, often in utter
disregard of private rights or private
judgment, and, in addition, secures to
himself the absolute reversion of every
improvement which the tenant may
make on the and.-MacmiRiun's Nigga

TIE THINGS IN TIE BOTTOM
ORA WEIR.

There are whips and tops and pieces OF strings
There are shoes which no little feet wear,
There are bits OF ribbon and broken rings
And Iresses OF golden hair.
There are little dresses folded away
Out Of the light of the sunny day.
There are dainty jackets that never are woiB,
There are toys and models of ships,
There are books and pictures all faded and
torn,
And marked by the finger tips
VI dimpled hands that have fallen TO dust
Iet strive 10 think thai the Lord is just.
But feeling of bitterness flls my soul
Sometimes when Try r. pray,
That the reaper has spared % many hOwerS,
And taken mine away
And almost DOUBT If the Lord can know
That mothers heart can love them so.
Then think OF the many weary ones
Who ar. waiting and watching tonight
For the slow return of ialtering feet
That have sirayed from the paths of right;
VINO have darkeued their lives by shame and
sin,
Whom the snares Of tempter have gathered in.
They wander far in distant climss,
They perish by IRE and flood,
And their hands are black with the direst
crimes
That kindled the wrath of God.
Yet mothers song has soOtbed them to rest:
s4e hath lOlled them TO slumber upon her
breast.
And then think Of my children three,
Ny babes that never grew old.
And now they are waiting ana watching for
me
In the city with streets OF gold.

From sorrow aud sin and var,
And thank nv God WITH falling tears
