items as made out, when Mr.. CraW-
ford discovered that when he had
printed quarter sheet bilaE5 he had
charged for ha.f sheets ana 50 on down.
Mr.. Crawford called his attention to
this important fact, and picking up a
half sheet from the table, said:
"What d. You call that.
Mr.. Robinson replied in one Of his
bland smiles, but as5ayed nothing fur
taer.
sir. Cheney then asked him to

Mr. Cheney then said that when the
bids Wery. let, the matter Of full and
half sheets was fully discussed and un-
derstooI, and he was tired OF having to
go over the ground again.
Mr.. Crawford said that every printer
knew what Il half and full sheet was,
and he did not think that Mr.. robin
sou showeda disposition 20 act squarely.
In the meantime Mr.. Robinson, taking
up a blank form which he brought for
the purpose OF verifying his account,
put it in his pocket ana withdrew.
Il further examination of the blanks
showed that they were not even fourth

4 New Book.

The Bodie Free Press says: Judge
r. r. Parkinson, com lonIy known as
the "Deacon," left on Sunday evening
last for San Franciscu, to supervise the
publication of a book in the writing Of
which he has been engaged for some
months. The title of the book Will be:
"Recollecti0ns of an Eventful Lie. In
teresting incidents Of Il sea Of life "f
fourteen years duration: vivid account
Of storm and shipwreck, intersper5ei
with habits and customs of aboriginal
tribes Also incidents Of pioneer life
in California, with descriptions OF
grand mountain and lake scenery"
The book will doubtless be one of thrill
ling interest, and those who nave read
the productions OF the Desicon's fIcile
pen will look for the forthcoming vol
une with some degree Of impalience.
