An exchange says: The flesh of the sheep
is the best meat in the world; it is also the
poorest. A lean, thin sheep, that has out
lived its usefulness as 2 wool bearer, and
been cut down by the relentless knife as a
cumberance of the pasture ground, and con-
signed to the pot in the vain hope of masce-
rating its toughened fbers, affords an I'M
savory and unpalatable meat, which has
taught many to loath the very name of
mutton and abominate its very smell. On
the contrary, not the aromantic favors of
yenson, the gamey richness of wild foul, or
the sweet juices of Short-horn sirloin can
surpass the virtues of Southdown marrow
and fatness. 1t is sweeter to the palate,
more digestlbe, and more nutritious than
any other variety of meat food.

THE DODGE CITY TIMES.

THE NEW NICKEL GILDB80.
The United States authorities rerort that
the city Crooks" are becoming experts in
the gliding of the new 5-csnt pieces and
passing them for 8 gold coins, and recon-.
mended caution on the part of people to
keep from being fooled BY them. In some
instances the deception of the gliding is
furthsred BY skillful milling Of the edges,
and anyone not thoroughly posted can resdi-
ly be deceived by the coins 20 tempered
with. On the face of these pieces appears to
be an exact counterpart Of the genuine s.
gold piece and the change in the other one
can readily be supposed to be the result of
new coinage, there being nothing to indicate
that the V does not stand for SIS. The field
for the psrpetration of the fraud among
those who do not read the newspapers is al
most unlimited. A dispatch from Nashville
reports that last Monday night w. c. Wood
ward was arrested in that city on telegram
from Chief of Police Campbell, of St. Louis,
saying that Woodward was wanted by the
Federal authorities On charge of passing
gilded nickels for SIS gold pieces.
The St. Louis authorities were notified of
the arrest, and replied that they would send
requisition for the prisoner. Woodward
is a newspaper reporter employed some years
ago on st. Louis papers, and recently in a
similar capacity in Nashville.
The Federal Grand Jury reported to the
court last evening finding indictments
against hslf-dozen of the counterfeiters
and petty revenue offenders already in custo.
dy. Two indictments were found sgalnst
parties not yet arrested, and one of these is
supposed to be intended for gilded nickel
passer-St Louis Globe Democrat.

DEATH 0IDR0 THB BUFFALO

The kill Of Buffalo last winter Vas seti-
mated at $4,000, which from the report OF
hides shipped, is very Close to the mark.
The kill this winter promises 70 fall long
way short of last. A dealer who was .
buyer in the field, says he has. 20 far only
900 hides. The amount of the matter il
that buffaloes are rapidly becoming extinct
and unless the attempt made to domesticste
the animal succeeds, the noblest American
game will pass into history before the next
census.

of the subject and has the key of it in
his possession all through tie trance
sleep. 1t is pretty plain that opera
tors acquire this power by practice,
and q "mesmerist" of twenty years
practice may have vast repertory of
experiments and the power of subju-
eating almost any one. We hardly
know what makes man a good sub
ject or why Professor Thwing and
others select subjects so readily. And
here, too, practice is an element. A
trained subject may possibly know
what he is doing, though he cannot
help doing it, just as man may know
that he is dreaming. This knowledge
may help to make the show interest

putting on STYLE to please the COM
pany when he is told he has the
toothache he may "do the notions p
with great enthusiasm.
We are not dealing here with any
thing new. All that is new is the e.
rious attempt to get the business cut
of the hands of mercenary people by
study OF The mental and physical laws
that are concerned in the vast region
Astounding with unclassi6ed and re-
markable facts. DR.. Carpenter in
England and DR.. Baird in this country
and ether students of these phenomena
have given healthy i'm pulse to these
very important investigations, and

gratuitous and parasitic addition to

FONDNESS FOR FORGERY
More of the Crooked DoinGs of
q. w. Lindsey, the Light
Mug Rod Agent.

One day last week the BAzoO noted the
arrival liz Seda,ia of Isaac Smith, farmer
who resides near HoustOnia, and his alp
pearance before Squire Halstead, skiing
for a warrant for q man named Geo. w.
Lindsey, who has been travelling through
this section of Missouri for some months
past, ostensibIy engaged in the business of
selling lightning rods.
Lindsey, according to Smiths story, had
stolen horse from him, and. in addition
had forged note on l.. Jones, of Housto-
MIA, for $25. Subsequently it was learned
that Lindsey had stolen team of horses
from a gentleman residing at Montserrat.
Lindsey attempted to leave this section
of country, but was overiaken at Boon
vile and arrested, and is now held on the
charge of grand larceny.
Since his incarceration still other crook
ed transactions have come to light, as the
following correspondence, received at this
Office last night, will 60 to testify:
OTTERvILLE, May Sth.
EDITOR BAZoo -Two men, calling them
selves Lindsey and Allen. who purport TO
be agents of lightning rod company in
Ohio, contracted with me and put up rods
on my house. for which ] gave them my
note for $50, payable at the First National
bank of Seiali. on tie 25!h day of Deem
Der next. A few days after, Lindsey came
to my house and proposed to take SIS if i
would pay the cash. His proposition was
accepted. paid him the money and took
in my noie, and he went on his
way rejoicing TO Pleasant Gre.n
where he cashed q note ON me for go,
Mr.. VIM. Burger being the purchaser.
This was on Sunday evening, the 4.h inst,
and on Monday morning Mr.. Burger came
to see me and said he had bought my note
of l. lindsey. told him that had bought
it myself and paid him $l3. He then
showed me the note. and the signature
was q forgery. Mr.. Burger lett in hur-
~, on the lookout for Lindsey, and no
doubt he was fleeing the wrath to come.
Yours, truly,
JEREMIAH TOMLINsoN.
The arrest of Lindsey has certainly been
the cause of Kidding the country of sleek
crook, and it Is 10 be hoped he will be land
ed within the walls of the state prison.
