MI Sweeney. the famous breeder of gal

munication to Mr.. Con Mooney regarding

give the Legislature "a chance to investigate
the matter:
CARSON, January, 10, 1891.
Mr.. Con MooNEY--Dear Sir: [ hear
that you are anxious to make "a cooking
main. Now don't think you mean bust
ness or you would accept terms in regard
to heels. You say you want to fight with
old style gatfs because you think you have
the gamest cocks. Now Mr.. Mooney, 1
am ready to fight you main of from thir-
teen to twenty-one birds for fifty to one
hundred battle, and five hundred or one
thousand the odd fight and fight the main
with any sized heel you want or with the
birds naturally heeled so that there will
be no occasion to find fault and I will sign
articles and cover any forfeit that you send
to Matt Caravan and he will suit me for

the recipient of business communication
from you on this subject at an early date.
I remain very truly yours,

A DEADLY AssAULr.-At I o'clock yester
day morning John Ross, bar-keeper in
Winston's saloon, severely beat a man
named w. W. Morgan, who is connected
with some Lake 3 gler steamer, over the
head with SIX shooter. The reason as
signed for the act is that Morgan neglected
to pay for drinks which he is alleged to have
ordered. Morgan is very badly injured. He
swore out warrant for the arrest of his as
sailant, and was about the Courtroom all
day yesterday until the hour for the trial,
when he suddenly disappeared and could
not be found when wanted to testify. The
prevailing impression is that the man is
partially insane from the effects of the in
juries he received. The case against Ross
was dismissed, after much legal sparring,
as there was no one to testify in behalf Of
the State.

Coop CIGaRs.--Few men really know a
good cigar when they find it. A man who
smokes bad cigars discovers the facts only
in the dullness of brain and holdover head
aches which result. A dealer is alone re-

to the seller and go it blind. Friends

The Hero and the Dog.

A dozen men were watering their
throats in a Detroit saloon, when
two strangers entered, and one of
them raised his voice and cried
out:
Gentlemen, allow me to inf-
duce you to Capt. Green. of Chicago,
the hero who was locked up in a
room with a dog for two long hours,
armed only with a piece of lath."
Several persons at once stepped
forward and shook hands with the
Captain and invited him to take a
lie imbibed three glasses of bo0r
and got two cigars in his pocket,
when one of them queried:
"You must have feltpurty skeery?'
"Yes."
"Was the dog mad"
Il don't think he was"
And you kept him off with
lath?"
"Yes."
"Well, l d,n't want any of that.
Locked n,..were you?"
"Yes."
Couldn't have got out if the dog
had proved too much for you?'
NO"
Well, you were a hero, and that's
a fact. What breed of dog was it !"
Il think they call it poodle,
quietly answered the hero as he slid
out through the door.

Mary no Tippler.

How many young ladies there are
who, in spite of the wretchedness
they see daily from marrying tip
pliers, are still willing to run the
risk themselves. They cannot be
brought TO believe that the one glass
taken now and then will, in nine
eases out of ten, increase to three,
four, five, and even more, until the
vice has man in its grasp, as a wise
never to relax its hold, until the
wife and family have run through
the whole gamut of wretchedness,
and death closes the scene.
Shame and sorrow follow in the
footsteps of drinking man as sure
as night follows day. Girls often
refuse a man because he is poor, or
his social position does nol please; !;
but how many girls would refuse a
rich tippler? Wealth binds them
to the terrible future which a drunk
ard will bring them to-wealth can
not, however, soothe the pangs OF
disappointment and disgrace which
an intemperate man causes his fam
lily.
Girls, take a friends advice. Re
iect the hand of man who will not
abstain from the intoxicating cup.
Your happiness and respectabilitv
in this life, perchance your saliva
ton in the next, are involved in
this question. Marry a teetotaler
though he be poor.

MOURNING MANIFESTATIONS FOR
THE DEAD CZAR.
THE PROBABLE POLICY OF HIS sUc-
CESSOR.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 15.-Grand
Duke Vladimir was Yesterday ap-
pointed to the command of the I'm
perial Guard and the military dis
trict of St. Petersburg. The re-
mains of the Emperor will be re-
moved at s o'clock this evening
from the cabinet adjoining the re-
ception hall to the chapel of the
palace. All the members of the
Imperial family and dignitaries and
officials will be present. The body
is, in accordance with the wishes of
the deceased, clad in the uniform of
the Peobraschenski Regiment. A
requism was chanted at 8 pollock
last evening. At midnight the doc
tors made an autopsy, which prov
ed that all the internal organs were
in a normal condition, thereby re-
futing the recent current reports
respecting the health of the Empe-
ror. The body has been embalmed.
The remains will lie in state in the
chapel of the palace for fifteen days.
Prayers will be said nightly.
The provinces are quiet and free
from excitement. To-day streams
of foot passengers passed up and
down the streets where the assassin
alton took place, and a large crowd
continue in front of the Winter
Palace. Funeral mass was celebrat-
ed before densely packed congre-

Car had permitted himself to be

first explosion the catastrophe might
have been avoided, yetit is regarded

How She Retaliatcd.

1t was suit for divorce. The hus-

divorce from his wife. They were

Her Lost Baggage.

Down in the Union Depot there
are thousand carpet-bags. satchels,
grapbags, piled up on shelves to
await owners. The collection is
known as stray baggage, and it is
added to or taken from almost dali
ly. The man who has charge of it
knows pretty well the contents of
each, and what he doesn't know he
can guess at. Yesterday when a
woman entered his domain and said
she was looking for a lost satchel,
he replied:
Every well, madam. We will be-
gin our search in division "A"

satchel, the bottom partly ripped

Bismarcks Naughty Son.

PARIS, March PA very singu-
lar story is going the rounds in Ber-
lin and Paris about Count Herbert,
the son of a certain Iron Prince,
who is supposed to hold the desti-
MES of an empire in his hand, and
a beautiful German princess wife of
a high court dignitary. The Count
left Berlin suddenly the other day,
as it was supposed on diplomatic
mission. At the same time, how
ever, the Princess disappeared also,
and her husband obtained permis-
sion to retire into private life. Detec-
tives have just discovered the fugi-
tives wandering hand in hand, along
the sunny roads of Italy. Although
tie Iron Prince has sent Count Her
bert positive orders to come home
the latter refuses to comply.

Advice to Young Men,

The Hebrew Leader gives some
wholesome advice of a general ap-
plication. 1t SAYS: I'm these days
the tendency of Jewish young men
is to enter professional life, regard
less of the fact that the learned pro-
fessors are already-overcrowded.
The sons of rich men wish to grad
uate from college, and this is all
proper and right. Having gradua-
ted, nothing will do them but to
become lawyers, doctors, or some
thing else that has professional
smack to it. This. is where mistake
is made. Take New York for in
stance. 1t contains thousands OF
lawyers without a client and hun
dreds of physicians without pa
tient. Yet it requires a certain
amount of brains to pass the requir-
ed examination in either case and
if the same zeal and industry were
given to some other ocupation it
would insure competence and hap
piness, if not fortune. The world IS
wide and its pathways numerous,
and there is no need of crowding
any pathway uncomfortably. \
successful storekeeper is much more
to be envied than an unsuccessful
lawyer or physician. A true and

has this to say of Senator Cameron
"Of Pennsyvania's Senator, it can
be truly said that not one of the
body of which he is a member can
equal or at Least eclipse him in per-
sonal influence. He can on every
measure command the united
strength of his own party, and can
WELD in his interest more Demo-
cratic Senators than any other Re
publican there. He is no orator. in
the sense of superintendent CAB, but
what he has to say is clear, concise
and to the point; and clothed in
the language of a gentleman of deli
cate instincts and refined education.
In the business of the Senate he is a
master, whether relating 10 the in
terests of his constituents, or the
general interests Of the people. His
methods are in keeping with his ma
ture. Prompt and decisive, with a
quick perception, he does net require
a long rigmarole of reasoning to
reach conclusion. State the prop
