had shut the water off from both my
pumps a little distance back, when 1 dis
covered what was the matter, and she
was now making steam finely down a
slight grade. From less than 100, with
which we started over that ten-mile
stretch, she had 200 pounds before We
finished it /; and, as the gauge indicated
no higher than that, and the valve was
tied down, 1 could not tell how much
over 200 pounds she carried. but she GER
tainly carried none less the rest of the
journey. And well might she carry
such an enormous head of steam, for, af-
ter passing over that ten miles in eight
minutes, there lay ten miles of tive-feet
upgrade, and fourteen miles of twenty
feet-tO-the- depression between us
and C., and it was now thirteen min
utes to II o'clock.
Now the engine was hot in earnest.
The furnace door, smoke arch and Chin
ney all were red while she seemed to
fly onward as if the very Evil One him
self operated her machinery.
Six minutes carried us over that ten
miles and We darted by the last station
that had lain between us and c..
Now We had fourteen miles to go and my
time showed fifty-three minutes past IL
o'clock.
"H I live" said 1 to myself, 81 will
make it," And We plunged down that
twenty-fOOt grade with all steam on.
Persons who saw the train on that wild
run said it was SO soon after they heard
the first sound of her approach, when
the strange object, which looked rs if it
was flame of fire, darted by, and then
the sound of the travelling died away in
the distance, that they could hardly
convince themselves they had really
seen anything. 1t seemed more like a
creature of q wild dream than a sober
reality.
And now let me tell you that no en-
ginc ever beat the time We made on those
fourteen miles. Those great wheels,
seven feet in diameter. spun around so
swift that you couldn't begin to count
the evolutions. The engine barely
seemed to touch the track as she flew
along and, although the track was az
true as it was possible for it to be, she
swayed fearfully. and sometimes made
such prodigious jolts that it required
considerable skill for one to keep his
feet. No engine could hold together if
crowded to greater speed.
Well, just as I came to q standstill in
the depot at G. the big clock doomed
out ~, and the steamboat was getting her
steam on. Roberts got on board in time
and nothing to spare. But he saved the
money. He found it hid away in some
old boxes as Aldrich had directed him.

BAT shooting is peculiar feature Of
California sport. In recent contest on
SCOTS ranch, at American River bridge,
there were several matches, and finally
one for the championship cup, in which
Jackson defeated the previous bat cham
pion, Ruhstaller, by one bat-the score
standing-Ruhstaller IA bats; jackson,
IL. 1t seems that the bats "prOved to
be unusually lively, and, flying like
jacksnipe, with many a turn and twist,
caused the men at the trap to miss fire.
quently." Bat shooting, accordingly,
seems rather more like sport than butt
shooting, in which the marksman, lying
ON his back, with his head on his arm,
and his rifle poised on his toes, and with
careful sights, aims for some minutes at
a fixed target, and then at last touches
the trigger. The California Jackson,
who won the cup at bat shooting, is cer-
tainly worthy TO be named with the
Massachusetts Jackson who achieved
the top score in Hyde's team at VIM
bledon.

An old North Carolina farmer got q
double-barrel shot gun when he heard
that his daughter had eloped with a
young man whom he despised, pursued the
couple into an adjoining county, found
them just as the marriage ceremony was
completed, and emptied both barrels
into the breast of Haverlock Styles, a
youth who had acted as groomsman at

PERHAPS, BUT L GUESS MOI.

The Secretary Of the Lime Kiln Club
announced q communication from Oba-
diah Glassfoot, of New York, saying that
he was an enthusiast on the subject Of
discovering the North pole, and adding
that he would be perfectly willing to
take command of anexpedition fitted out
by the colored race of America for such
purpose. He argued that the black
man had never yet done anything to en-
grave his name on the scrolls Of fame,
and that this golden opportunity should
not be permitted to slip away.
Immediately upon the reading of the
letter Paramount Baxter arose and
offered resolution to the effect that the
Lime-Kiln Club at once appoint com
mittee of three, with power to send for
persons and papers, 20 discover the
North pole. The resolution was Sec
onded by thirty voices, and there was q
slight crook to the end of the Presidents
nose as he arose and said:
"Doan' some O. you want q commit

the Cnarlessem news ON the Nell
logs. spsfford Case.

There seems not 10 be an entire unan-
unity Of the Democratic press through
ont the country in support OF the Sen
ate resolution to anssat Senator Kellogg
and to seat his contestant spoford.
The Charleston .'Nsws and Courier, |"
one 0. the leading Democratic papers
of thu s ,uth. is outspoken in its con-
domination Of the scheme and says:
"The unsssting of Senator kellogg
by the vote Of a majority Of the Senate,
in conformity with the report OF the
Committee on Privileges and Elections,
will be, in our opinion, exceedingly in
furious and dangerous to the Democrat
10 party. 1t will be regarded in the
North as evidence of the determination
of the Democrats to preserve their ma
jority in the Senate at any cost, and 1t
will establish precedent that the Re
publicans will follow unhssitatingly
whenever they have the power"
THE "News" opens and discusses the
vhple question and gives strong reasons
against the suicidal action contem-
plated, showing that when Butler and
Kellogg were admitted, the former got
his seat on'y by a ''prima facia" title,
but Kellogg was admitted upon the
merits of the case as any other Senator
was admitted against whom there was
no contest. The "News" presents the
case so vigorously and in such an argu-
mentative manner that We publish lis
concluding paragraph and recommend
its course to a so-called independent
paper of this city which only sees
through Baysrd spectaeles
ave have no liking for Senator Kel-
logg, but we are satisfied that the ar
rapgement under which Senator Rel
iogg and Butler were admitted was re-
yarded as q fpslity at the time, and
ought not therefore, to be disturbed or
reopened. 1t will be q bright day for
the Democratic party il the Democratic
Senators, satisfied Of the justice Of what
we have said, decline TO follow the lead
Of Mr.. Hill in this Kellogg business. A
postponemsnt Of the matter Is mot
enough. What 10 wanted is square
and straight vote. II the Democratic
Senators DO divided it will do no harm,
so loug as prominent Southern Senators
decline TO make capital for the Rspub-
cans. There will be brilliant oppor-
tunity to show how nice is the Sense OF
honor among the Southern Senators,
and how unwilling they are to use pow.
er ruthlessly to secure q political ad-
vantage that will cost Thousand times
more than it is worth"

GETTING PASTOR for o Methodist

Conference. Mr.. Bryan came up on
Wednesday, took a look at the situa-
ton, expressed himself satisfied, en-
gagged a teamste. " haul his goods

they would arrive, and went home on
Thursday. On riday wor eau that

THE Assessing mscaine was consider
q =, out Ct gear at New Castle yester-
day, only sixty-three persons succeed
lag in getting put through the mill.
This was occasioned by the large num-
Der of colored persons present from St.,
Georges Hundred whom the Levy Court
seemed very lsath from come cause or
other 70 place upon the assessment.
Tne Democratic leaders of that Hun
dred it i, said are fearful that if any
more Republicans are assessed, they
may lose the Hundred officers. One of
the successful tricks to kill time WAS
the objection by President Bright to
receive the voucher afidavits issued by
George W. Town send, q Justice OF the
pc, c, in Red Lion Hundred who re-
moved his residence to St.GeorEes Hun
dred ssme time before the first Of March,
but kept his Office open for business in
Red Lion Hundred for some days after
wards. The law was so construed that
by Mr.. Townsend removing his resi-
dence his Office went with it and the
result was a forfeiture OF his commits
sion. This view of the case was sus.
tanned by Mr.. Gray, the Attorney Of the
Court, and consequently large num-
her Of persons holding vouchers issued
March second had to go AVID get new
vouchers sworn to before Frank Rich
Ardson, Justice of the Peace at New
Castle. 1t is due to President Bright
to say that he never made any objec
lions to such vouchers, until after a
pro'raeted whispering between him
self and John A. Cleaver, the collector
for Red Lien Hundred. Several per-
s us ha1 already been assessed with
similar vouchers. Had the voters been
from some other Hundred than St.
Georges with the Townsend vouchers
there would hardly have been any op.
position to placing their names on tie
lists. Drowning men catch at straws.
