the same transaction separate inform.
atoms were filed against each person,
This In my judgement Is not In
accordance with the spirit of the law,
for the policy of the law is to prevent
q multiplicity of suits, both In civil
and criminal cases, All persons I'm.
plicated and arrested with reference to
the same offence should be included In
the one Information, n warrant,
etc., and not double Or triple the ex.
penses In the investigation Of one set
of facts by commencing two or thrae
cases instead of one. I find that the
number of days charged for trial
attendance, ETC., In some instances Ia
evidently made under q mistake Of the
law, as I understand 1t trial means an
actual investigation into the merits of
the case, and not the time consumed
In granting continuances. There are
too many oontinuancss. Cases should
be promptly tried.
Justices should exercise great care
In setting the machinery of the law Ia
operation and guard a. far as possible
against such proceedings being insti
tuted through spite, or In retaliation
for previous proceedings. Such affair
are abuses of the criminal law, and
Justice may In bis discretion refuse Il
file an information In such cases.
The various items of charges In tn

Stacks OF Silver Chanced Away at ar
Indian Tournament In Nevada.

The FLUTES are hsvinga grand gamb-
ling tournament, says the Winnemuc-
On Silver State of recent date. In the
day time they meet on the sunny side
of one of their wickinps, from which
they extend wings by tying blankets
on poles to break the wind. The
gamblers who engage In the tourna.
ment place two poles on the ground,
about ten feet apart and parallel with
each other, and seat themselves on
the ground, cross legged, outside the
poles. There are generally six or eight
bucks on each side, and the stakes
which range from 81 to go In silver
are staked on the open ground be-
tween the parallel poles. Each aide Is
furnished with six or eight short
sticks and four long oner. Two strings
of small shells tod In the form of
rings are then procured, and when 1t Is
decided by chance which side shall
take these shells, the game begins.
A low, monotonous chant, accom-
panied by striking the poles with the
long sticks and the Hwaying of their
booies to and fro, as If keeping time
with the chant and noise made by the
sticks, Is commenced by the side who
won the sholls, and the two bucks
who have possession of the shells
move their hands and arms and change
the shells from one hand to the other,
and finally conceal both hands under
their blankets and cease moving them.
This seems to be the signal for one oil
the bucks on the other side to guess
which hand the shells are concealed
In. II he guesaes right the shells are
thrown to his side and two of the
abort stickr. Then the chant and iti
accompaniment 10 taken up by thai
side and continued until the shells arc
won back by the other side.
When all the short sticks are on one
side the game Is decided, the side
having the sticks being the v~iotors,
The chant and beating the poles and
swsying to and fro ceases until the
stakes for another game are deposited,
when the performance Is repeated
All day long and far Into the night by
the light Of Q sage brush fire thii
gambling continues, and considerable
money changes hands. The squaws ant
children arrangethemselveu outsidet the

Under date Of July 8. 1882, Mr., E. B
Bright Of Windsor Locks Conn, writes O..
plain modest narrative, which, from its
very simplicity, has the true ring Of fine
gold. He says:-
my father Is using Hunts Remedy and
seems to be improving, In fact, he Is very
much better than he has been for q long
time. He had been tapped three times.
The first time they got from him sixteen
quarts Of water, the second time thirteen
quarts, and fully as much more the third
time. and he would constantly fill up again
every time after he had been tapped. until
he commenced using Hunts Remedy,
which acted like magic In his case, as he
begun to improve OF once, and now his
watery accumulation passes away through
the secretions naturally, and he has lone Of
that swelling or filling up which was so fire..

were restored by the use Of Hunts Rem.

A Former Slave Becomes Owner Of tho
Plantation.


Plantation.
The Atlanta Consultation has found q
colored man in Meriwethcr county, Ga,
who since the war, has amassed for
tune sufficient to purchase the planta-
ton on which he once worked as a
slave. .'In the time before the war" !"
runs the story, ''there lived in Meri-
wether county don t-care sort of ne
gro named Jack Wilson. who could
neither read nor write. He had gained
his freedom in some way or other, and
gained his livelihood by acting as a sort
of director general to famous horses in
his neighborhood. Jack became attach
ed to servant girl who was owned by
man named Gates, one of the wealth.
lest men in Georgia, who owned thous-
ands of acres of land, and with his fam
lily lived in lordly style. The servant
girl was bright mulatto, and Jack was
shade darker. They made match
of it, and were married under the order
of things that existed in war times. At
the same time Jack had a slave-time
wife in Virginia, but she was as black
as coal. When the war closed and the
slaves were declared free, Jack took his
Georgia wife to be his partner for life,
and by living with her for stated per-
iod she became his wife according to
law. As soon rs he was married Jack
showed sudden spirit of industry that
astonished everybody. His careless
habits were thrown aside, and he went
to work with will. The wealthy Gage,
his master, died, and the broad acres
fell to the possession of the heirs. Jack
still worked on the place, and was saw
ing and careful. The Gage family had
lost everything except their land. Hum
dreds of slaves were freed by the new
order of things, and the vast and prince
ly fortune was gone. The heirs could
not adapt themselves to the situation.-
Finally pressed, they sold fifty acres OF
land to Jack: then they wanted more
money. and Jack stood their security at
the La Grange Bank, and when they
were unable to pay he would take up
the notes at bank and trade for piece
of the Gates plantation. He worked
with a vengeance, and all his family
worked. Old man Jack became noted
and honored citizen of the county. He
was Industrious and prospered. In the
mean time his old masters children con-
tinued to sell him parts of the old home
stead. Finally he owned it all and was
rich. Three years ago he decided that
it was his duty to provide for his old
Virginia wife, so he sent for her. and
she, with her children, came to him.
She was given house on the planta-
ton, andit was well provided for. Jack
owns now the magnificent place of
about 1.500 acres within three miles of
White Sulphur Springs, in Meriwether
county. He is 63 years old, and his
children are settled around him, and all
are contented and happy and industri-
GUS. He owns fifteen or sixteen mules,
and is noted for keeping the best stock
in the county. His credit at the La
Grange Bank is good, and he can bor-
row all the money he wants on his SIM
pie note of hand"
