Selma (Ala..l Argus.
scrawny girl of fifteen winters en-
teIs, half-nourished creature, whose
thin ankles are lost in the bulky shoe
tops, her red hands are hid in the cor

and the hat she wears seems the up

ed with a weary-looking feather that
hangs at half-mast like flag of distress.

She seeks TO see Senator Jones, uf

keeper jerks one out of his pocket and
gives il to her.

the girl asks.
"What is it?'' he inquiries.

door-keeper.
NO, SIR
Il fear he won't see YOU, as he rarely
leaves the chamber. He takes the

In few minutes the doorkeeper

orsa very severe lesson in the recent
battle Of Spitzkop. It is now ascertain

their commander-in-chief being among
the slain. 1t was first reported that
the English were defeated because they
got out of ammunition, but that proves
To be incorrect, and the fact is that they
We're fairly whipped by the brave and
stubborn Beers, who are proving them
selves excellent marksmen and the best
II soldiers. The victorious Beers have
sent 4 message Of coincidence 10 Lady
Colley, which characterizes them as a
humane and civilized people, who are
forced to kill those that invade their
soil for the purpose of enforcing the
edicts Of cruel, despotic and over
bearing goyernmnnt. Every lover Of
liberty and self-goyernment the world
over will rejoice whenever he hears of
the success of the Beers. and the de-
feat of the English, who are trying to
Cypress and subdue them.

This was on account Of the fact that nu.

pamages For . MalleIous Arreal

The case of Louis Dafiit We. Johu
Porter was tried before Judge Bid.
die yesterday. Mr.. Daffit was at the
instance of Porter arrested for ma
licious mischief and theft. He was
tried In the Quarter Sessions and
acquitted. It appears that Daffit.
who was house agent, mended a
fence for tenant. In doing this
work he chopped up an old trough
which the tenant told him to use.
Porter claimed to own the trough.
and had Daffit arrested on the two
charges mentioned. Upon Dafit's
acquittal in the Quarter Sessions he
sued Porter for malicious prosecu-
tion, claiming that his arrest, under
the circumstances, was wholly un-
Justitiable, for he did not know Por-
Le., and was told to use the trough
by the tenant, supposing 1t to be her
property. Porter said that the
trough belonged to him, and he told
an Alderman about the matter and
the Alderman advised him to have
Daffit arrested. A verdict was rem
dered awarding the plain .iff $780,

The 3 Per Cent. Funding BiIl.
From the PHILADELPHIA Times.

hu6 - P6b C0Fts FuuObn& @tUs Z
From the Philadelphia TineG
Finding the "rebel" outcry inop-
erative In sitting the funding bill in
the House, the Gould organs now
prophesy that the Senate, which is
generally more susceptible to the
occult influence Of the lobby, will
come to the rescue of the monopo-
lists. Mr.. Blame is represented as
willing to champion the monopolist
fight, but as he is about to quit the
scene this may be fairly doubted. 1t
will mystify most people to under
stand how plausible argument can
be made In favor of fastening a high
er rate of interest upon the people
than the market exacts. But the
inonopolists are at no loss for argu-
ments. If you ask why this great
and rich country should pay q high
er rate of interest, they respond you
are "rebel." Four, Eve and six
per cent. are the rates offered dur
ing the war, and it will be robbing
the investors who lent on these
rates during our time of need to
bring them down to the paltry rates
paid by England. Then, too, Van
derbilt has $50, 900 900 at four per
cent. 1t will be robbery to make
him give these millions over for
beggarly three per cent. OF what
use is it that he toll and moil in Wall
street with that other benefactor Jay
Gould, If he can't stow away his
ga'rs at four per cent? 1t is to be
feared that the Sc late will be as
hard-hearted as the House, and that
the "rebels" will really strip these
pa lting patriots of the reward of all
their selt-sacrifice and endeayor,
