General Crook, who is at Wilcox, Arizona
| territory, says that the territorial press
have exaggerated the reports of Indian
outrages in order to instigate an attack
upon the reservations of the Indians.
There have been no raiders in Arizona for
three weeks past. General Crook has been
greatly annoyed and hampered by the in
flammatory articles and falsehoods.
He will move into Mexico with 1872
Apaches and fifty cavalrymen to cooperate
with the Mexican force in northern Sonora
and chihuahua.
The sheriff of Athens county. Ga. who
was visiting recently IL the country. got
up during the night to shoot an owl that
annoyed him by its hooting near his win
dow. The dogs were not used to such
sights as the sheriff presented in his night
clothes, and made raid on him and com
pelled him 10 climb a tree. Fearing to
raise the house, lest the women should
come out to investigate the trouble, he re-
NAMED shiVering in the crotch of the tree
until the man got up in the morning and
fetched him his trousers.
Jack Harkey, queer sort of old fellow,
who lived alone in a cabin located in des-
olate place in Union county, n. c., died
last fall, and his shanty remained vacant
all winter. Not long since a new tenant
took possession of it, and while moving an
old cupboard discovered tin box con-
tanning $1,000 in gold pieces. Although
he was poor and needy, and could have
kept the treasure without anyone knowing
anything about it, he posted off and told
the executor, who went and got the money
and never said beans to the finder.
The daughter of an English baronet fell
in love with poor lawyer nearly 100
years ago. She challenged him to fight
duel, which he was forced to accept. She
appeared masked, and gave him the
choice of either fighting her or marrying
her. His second, who was also unaware of
the woman's identity or the cause of her
strange conduct, advised his principal to
marry her. After the ceremony, during
which she still wore the mask, they drove
to her rich home. After withdrawing a few
moments she returned and at once capti-
waited her husband by her beauty and taste
full dress.
A custom has long prevailed at the SEN
ate end of the capitol by which a retiring
presiding officer of the senate, whether a
vice-president or senator elected presi-
dent pro tempore of that body, is priv
legged to carry off, when his term expires
the andirons and fire set of the vice presi-
dents chamber at the capitol. Mr.. Wheeler
took away with him pair of brass and
irons finished with dragons heads. Mr..
Davis set were a modern revival of an an
tique style, and included andirons, fender,
poker, shovel and tongs, all of the hand
soonest brass. He promptly removed all
of them on his retirement.
A London paper tells of stout man of
dignifed presence who would walk solemn
ly into a restaurant or bar and stop sud
denly before any knot of three or four
people he might happen to see. When
they turned their eyes upon him, as they
naturally would do, he proceeded with great
gravity to unbutton his waistcoat. The
result of this was the disclosure of an
enormous beard some two feet in length,
the lower part of which was kept inside
the waistcoat when not required for pro-
fessional purposes. He would then, after
receiving any comments with perfect
silence, button up his waistcoat and hold
out his hat. His whole demeanor seemed
to say: This truly magnificent beard
speaks for itself; no words of mine can
add to its beauty, and if you haven't sense
enough to appreciate it and drop a copper
in the owners hat, words would be wasted
on you
