ROAD MAK1Na.-Our energetic over
seer of roads has hands at work and
will to-day begin to repair the road
running to Van Buren, Furnace. We
think the Council would find it to the
interest of the town TO macadamize thi'
road to the corporation line. A little
co.operation on the part.Of the road
boards and people would in short
lime secure a good macademized road
to the mountain. 1t would certainly
nav all parties interested.

Coon ADvlcE.-Marry the girl you
love; but don't marry her until you
can give her bread and bntter.
You have no business to do it, for
many reasons which you will discover
after you are married. One Of them
is this: A marled woman is
not the free agent that a single wo.
man is; embarrassed by the cares
that oome with matrimony' she is
helpless, and you have made her 50.
Therefore you must be sure you eau
take care of her, or you are risking
her happiness and comfort by marry
ing her. Not that you should wait
to be rich, but only to be able to have
food. and clothing and shelter su6ici-
en-: for all needs-to be as sure of
honey for the hive as We can be Of
anything in this wicked world. 1t
never hurts young people to await a
wee.' Cour,ing days are as far hap
pier than any others can ever be as
hope is always brighter than reality.

~ THE WAITER.
Instructions by which we MAY
Keep from Dro wning.

The humaa body weighs a pound
In the water, and a single chair will
carry two grown persons, That Is,
II would keep the head above water,
which Is all that is necessary when
il is question ot life or death. One
finger placed on stool or chair, or a
small box, or u piece Of board, will
easily keep the head above water,
while the other hand may be used rs a
paddle to propel toward the shore.
II is not at all necessary to know
how to swim TO be able to keep from
drowning in this way a little ex'
perience Of the buoyant power Of va.
ter, and faith in it is all that IL re-.
quired. We have seen small boy,
who could not swim n stroke, rropel
himself back and forth across q deep,
wide pond by means OF q board that
would not sustain five pounds weight.
Children and all others should have
practice in the sustaining power Of
water, in nine cases out OF ten the
knowledge that what will sustain o
pound OF weight is all that is necessa-
ry to keep ones head above water
will serve better in emergencies than
the greatest expertness as a swimmer.
A person unfamiliar with the buoy
ant power Of water will naturally try
to climb on top of the floating OBJ
ject on which he tries to save him
self. If it Is large enough that is all
right. But it is generally not large
enough, and halt OF a struggling group
is often drowned in the desperate
scramble Of a lite.aud-dea'h struggle
to climb on the top of riece Of
wreck or other floating otjecI not
large enough to keep them all entirely
above water. This often happens
when pleasure boats capsize. All i'm
media,ely want to get out Of the wa.
ter on top OF the overturned or half
filed boat, aud all are drowned ex.
cept those whom the wrecked craft
can wholly bear up. If they would
simply trust the water to sustain
ninety-nine hundredths of the weight
of their bodies, and the disabled boat
the other hundredth, they might be
saved under most circumstances. Au
overturned or water filled wooden
boat will sustain more people iu this
way than it will carry. 1t would
keep the heads above water Of rs
many people as could get their hands
on the gunwale. These are simple
facts, easily learned, and may some
day save your life.

Mr.. Jarvis, proprietor of Jarvis

out to make your own living, you'd

The game Of quarantine appears to be
the latest amusement variety in this
country. One of its advantages appears
to be that more than two can play at it.
San Francisco having been seized with
the smallpox scare, has ~quarantined
against Chicago, and that enterprising
city, to get even, proposes to quarantine
against New York. The new game is
hardly p~atentable. since it appears to be
only a parody on schoolboys' horse-play,
In which the administration Of a pinch,
with the injunction to "pass it on"
comprised all the elements of the sport.

Attempted Assassination OF Mayor
Clum-Marriage of Miss Evelyn
Towne and MIR. Charles N. shaw.

ESPECIAL TO TEE SENTINEL
San Francisco, Dec. IA Tombstone dis
patch says: An unsuccessful attempt was made
to as~sassinate John P. Clum, Mayor of the city.
Last night q band of armed men fred on him
while in the stage en- route for Tucson. The
driver was wounded and one Of the horses
killed. Mr.. Clum escaped without injury. No
attempt was made to rob the stage. The as
sault is supposed to be the outgrowth Of the
recent cowboy tragedy, since which threats
have been made against the life of Clum, the
carp brothers and Holiday, who were engaged
in the tragedy. Judge spicer, City Marshall
Williams and other parties are now in pursuit
Of the assailants.
Miss Evelyn, daughter Of A. N. Towne. Gen
eral Superintendent of the G. P. and 8. p. Rail-
roads, was married this evening at the Palace
Hotel to Charles N. Shaw, q prominent mining

HOW TO SHAKE.
The Boomerang Philosophers on
this Delicate Tonic.

There are only two or three people now liv.
ing who can successfully shake hands. There
is a good deal of handwriting done through
the country, especially at this season Of the
year. but only a very small per cent Of the
shakers and shakes know how to do 1t so as to
get the entire smount of exhilaration out of 1t.
Some grab the hand Of an adversary In a quick,
nervous manner that scsres the victim nearly
to death, while others slide the cold and clammy
paw al you SO that you feel the same as when
you drop a cold raw oyster with vinegar on it
down your back. If you are shaking hands
with a lady incline the head forward with q
soft and graceful yet half timid movement,
like q boy climbing . barbed-wire fence with q
f~ftv-ponnd watermelon. Look gently In her
eyes with q kind Of pleading smile, beam on
her features a bright and winsome beam, say
something that you have heard some one else
say on similar occasions and in the meantime
shake her hand in q subdued yet vigorous way,
not as though you were trying to make 9 mash
by pulverizing her fingers nor yet in too con.
sentative . manner, allowing her hand to fall
with 3 sickening thud when you let 90. Care
should be taken also not to hang onto the hand
more than half an hour In public, as bystsndera
might make remarks. This is now considered
quite outre and mandamus.

SHOOTING A TRAMP.
How a Little Mississippi Girl Re

@h hsnNtAucMS
In one Of the Mississippi towns, not far
from Memphis, says the Avalanche, on the
Nine Of the Mississippi Tennessee Railroad,
q little lady. aged 10 years. shot and severely
wounded an impudent white tramp. who at
tempted to enter the house after being ordered
not to do SO. The lady. who Is small, but
game. and a crack shot with a pistol, was the
only white person in the house when the burly
tramp approached. eve have nothing for
you; you needn't come n" said she to the
tramp. B I will come in" he answered.
You had better not, or You will get what you
don't want" quietly responded the little lady,
as she laid down her Knitting, picked up . six
shooter from her work basket, and approached
the door. "You go back in your room, or I'll
pitch you out of the window exclaimed the
rufianly tramp, as he walked inside of the
door. Bang went the pistol, and the tramp
staggered back on the porch, shot through the
arm and breast. She raised the pistol again,
but the tramp fed. A neighbor rushed around
the house and asked the little lady. who was
sitting down and knitting, with her pistol in
her work-basket, What's the matter?" She
exclaimed. "He's gone /" He then asked,
" Did YOU shoot hims" YES" che replied,
g and If he kept on coming, I would be shoot
ing till now" The tramp was found to be
bleeding profusely, and 1t was with difficulty
that the flow Of blood could be stopped He
left the town 3 sadder and q wiser man, hay
ing been taught q lesson in manners that he
will not soon forget. That game little woman
Is worth her weight in gold dollars.

WHAT Is

The question as to when a person has
been placed in jeopardy has often occu-
MED the attention of Courts, both in
this country and in England. We are
not lawyers, but we have, now and then,
heard a legal proposition discussed. The
general rule, we believe, is that when a
person accused Of crime has been once
tried before a Court and jury and a
verdict Of acquittal rendered, that ends
the case and the accused cannot be tried
again for the same %offense. About this
there can be no doubt. When, however,
a verdict of guilty has been rendered
and the defendant is awarded a new
trial. either by the Court which tried him
or by a superior Court on appeal, there
frequently occurs the very serious ques-
ton as to whether the defendant can be
tried again, or, in other words, whether
the defendant has once been placed IN
jeopardy. If the trial has been what
the law calls a mistrial. then there has
been no jeopardy, and the defendant can
be tried again. In the case OF Guiteau,
now on trial, a question OF this character
il likely to occur. In the dispatches
printed yesterday, it seemed that this
question was being discussed in legal
circles in Washington. The old rule,
which still holds in some States, is that q
person has been put in jeopardy when
his jury is impaneled and his trial be-
gun. This rule has been modified IN
MANY instances on grounds Of public
policy to bar the intervention OF mere
technicalities, by which many accused
persons have escaped further prosecution
on the plea of jeopardy. Whether the
statutes of the District of Columbia are
modified in this way, or whether the Old
rule obtains there, we have not had the
opportunity to determine by lnvestiga-
ton. The tone of the dispatches indi-
Gated the correctness of the SENTINELs
conclusion. We simply stated that II
those dispatches were true, and If the
law was such as it was intimated to be
by some lawyers at the Capital. then the
prisoner had been legally tried and could
not be tried again. OF course we do not
know whether those lawyers are right or
wrong as to their statements OF law or
fact. But We do know that the ques-
tion Of jeopardy is exceedingly technical,
and that it has been decided in different
Courts in different ways, the prisoner,
according to q fundamental principle of
the law, being entitled to the benefit OF
any doubt that may arise N the inter-
probation Of the law. 1t is hardly to be
supposed that a newspaper can decide
such a question, but as a matter of news
the SENTINEL gave its version Of the
affair as it was conveyed to US by the
Washington dispatches.
