Washington, March 27-The Navigation Of
the Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico" page
2S6, published in 1867, states ''that the bar at
the mouth of Ozama River prevents vessels of
greater draught than 10 feet from entering,
there being generally IL feet on the bar at
low water and Is feet inside, vessels of greater
draught being obliged to anchor in the open
rOadstead, which may be considered only a
Temporary and unsafe anchorage"
The American Consul at st Domingo under
date of Feb 5, 1888, reports that the bar is
shOaling, and vessels drawing more than 8
feet of water cannot enter the harbOr without
imminent risk. The American schrs J Nick
erssn and the Mabel, drawing less than feet,
had grounded on the bar. The former was
saved only at great expense, and the latter
oiled with water to the deck would proba-
bly, be lost; her cargo was taken out badly
damaged.

AIdispatch from Burlinghame. Kans

A!dispatch from Burlinghame, Kans.,
says: A precedent has been established
in regard to jury fees in this county. In
a criminal ease before Justice Weber at
Lyndon the jury retired to make up its
verdict, and upon returning to court the
justice asked if they had agreed upon a
verdict. The foreman replied that they
had, but would not render it until their
fees as jurymen were paid; that they
had been taken from their business and
made involuntary attendants at the
trial for a small fee each, and to the Sc
rious detriment of their business that
they considered their rights as import
ant as those involved in the trial that
frequently they had lost even the small
fees to which they were entitled by law,
and they, therefore, would not give a
verdict until they got their money. The
court insisted, but the jury held that
while the law compelled them to sit as
jurors, it did not compel them to render
verdict, and they would not do so un-
til they were paid their fees. The par
ties to the case then consulted and paid
the fees. The jury took the money and
returned their verdict and were dis
charged.

General linn. Lana.


From an interesting sketch of Gener-
al Jim. Lane, i'm the Topeka Journal, we
make the following extract:
Physically, Lane was perfect, and
had a constitution that would have made
him centenarian, had he used it prop
erly. He never drank intoxicants, did
not smoke, and only chewed what to-
bacco he could beg of others, which was
considerable but he was utterly Obliv-
ious to the necessities OF eating or sleep
ing, though he sacrificed very freely at
the shrine of Venus. He was still a
vigorous and well preserved man at the
time of his death, which we have never
doubted was the result of a lack of
sleep. We have known him to sleep but
one hour in twenty -four for weeks at a
time, eat only when his attention was
called to its necessity by some one else.
and work necessarily all the time. 1t
was his habit, in campaign, to work all
day and ride all night, frequently miss
ing two or thres meals in succession.
yet he was always in vigorous health.
Lane was man of great mental power
and remarkable magnetism, without
much moral principle. His benevolence
was larger than his conscientiousness.
and he would give away what should
have been used to pay his creditors.
Few men have lived who could so strong
ly attach others to him, or make more
bitter enemies, yet he was not combat
ative, and wouldmuch rather conciliate
an enemy than fight him, although his
personal courage was beyond question.
His social qualities were remarkable,
and Kansas is never likely to produce
his equal as an orator.

The Secretary of State of South Caro-
lima recently slapped the face of the
Governors private secretary, because
the latter expressed an opinion contrary
to his own, which, as the Secretary of
State explained, was tantamOunt to
giving him the lie." We presume that
if the Governor of North Carolina had
not agreed with the Governor of South
Carolina in the statement that it was
considerable time between drinks, the
latter would have shrieked: "Then Pm
a liar, am I?'' and proceeded to avenge
the insult according to the code.

Geo. Hubbard, ''stem-winder' who
belongs nowhere in particular, forged
ssme checks on Major Drumm, the cat
tleman, and sold them at Kingman.
After his trial he got away from the
sheriff, and Thursday night was discov-
cred in this city by j. j. Merrick and
Bolen Hicks, who pointed him out to

Somebody describes! the present Mrs:
Tabor, of Denver, as "fiabby blonde,
about the medium height, whose form
may have been voluptous once, but is
now only fat; heavy eyes, which are
half brazen, half appealing; a general
air of weight and malapropism, and a
hopeless suggestion of trying to fit into
unaccustomed responsibility with little
chance of success"
