There WINS about tho mule an air Of gentle
~exuberanco, mingled with a reserve, that
protected her from the pointed remarks OF
coarse men. Her eye-a large and soulful
orb-looked downward, and her ample ears
slopel coyly toward a dropping tail. Her
legs were spread out like the legs Of a four

Tho driver and the policeman thrust their
chins forward and glared into each others
eyes for several minutes, while an artful
smile stole over tho mobile features OF the
mule, and her ears waved gently. Suddenly
there WIS a rushing sound in tho air, and a
howl OF warning arose from the crowd as the

There is no more terrible cry than that OF
''hrei" ringing out on the startled ear OF
night; even murder. with all its hldeous as
sociations, does not arause US to sympathy
or to action as does the alarm that the red
demon, fire, is loose in our midst, licking up
the pride Of luxury, the fruit Of toll, the
scrapings Of a~verice, and the savings Of
years. Such was the cry hat startled the
inhabitants OF our village on Friday morning
at $40 o'clock The alarmed citizens, msn,
women and children, youth and age, wit and
beauty, strength and weakness, hurried to
tho scene, and found that J. K. Coffroth's
stable was IN fire. A valuable cow was

A Millionaire Slain.

SAN Francisco, Dec. 14.--Charles Nc
Laughlin was shot and killed yesterday by
jerome B. Cox. The tragedy was the re-
suit Of seventeen years litigation. Nc
Laughlin was pioneer, President of the
Central Gas Light Company, a large capital
list and landowner, and ranked among the
millionaires He was a promoter of the
old overland mail route, out of which he
made considerable money. In 1862 he
contracted and built the Western Pacific
Railroad, from San Jose to Sacramento, for
IS, 400, 900, and sublet the grading and
masonry work to Jerome B. Cox and others
for 100000. After twenty miles of the
road had been built Mclaughlin failed to
make payment Cox, who had put up
$4,000 of his own money, had to stop
the work. Mclaughlin completed the
road and sold it to the Central Pa
cific, realizing a large sum. Cox
brought suit against the company and Nc
Laughlin for $150,000 and obtained judg-
ment, which was reversed on technicalities
in the Supreme Court. Cox amended the
complaint, again recovered, and again the
verdict was reversed. The third, fourth and
fifth trials resulted similarly. The adverse
decisions so weighed on the mans mind last
spring that he attempted to shoot
Justice McKinsley, of the Supreme Court,
who, Cox believed, was chiefly instrum entail
in deciding adversely. He went to Nc
Laughlin's Office Friday morning and de-
manded $4,000 in settlement of his ac-
counts. Being refused, he shot Mclaughlin
three times. The man lived thirty minutes.
Cox was formerly a Captain in the Tenth
Indiana Battery and served during the war
under Rosecrans.
