Senator Sabin and the COxy.Roy.

"Then there was that fellow that lodged Sem
atOr Sabin when he was last in the city," said
reporter who occasionally does little detective
work. "We had been watching rather a loud
fellow from New Mexico, and I noticed that
when the Minnesota Senator came easily in
range the New Mexican changed countenance
Then came the story, which was to the effect
that some time ago the Senator was on the train
west of Kansas City. when a fellow clustered
into the car. put his bulldog pistol to the ear
OF man sitting near and shouted: Now, /
have got you blank YOU The stranger wilted
without word, but Sabin. turning, caught the
assailant's hand, took the pistol from him. and
without any remarks kicked him out Of the car.
He has the pistol yet, and his cowboy acquain-
lance didn't care to meet him."

DemOraliZed by Bad Crops.

From the Albany News.
A prominent Lee county, Ca, farmer who
was in the city yesterday reported that nearly
half of his stock of hogs had been stolen during
the last few weeks. There has been very little
hog stealing going on In this region of late
years until quite recently. The negroes in the
country have been badly demoralized by the
failure of this years crop, and many of them
have gone to stealing. The Lee county farmer
above referred to carried a supply Of arsenic
home with him, and said he intended to feed
enough OF it to his hogs to kill anybody that
eats piece Of one Of them. Hogs can eat
arsenic with IMMUNITY. but the flesh Of the hog
that has been fed on the poison will produce
death when eaten

The Fail of the Dude.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.

No one can view the fall Of the dude with
anything but satisfaction. or all the swells, he
has been the most nauseating. The old-fash-
Toned fop was creature of gorgeous plumage
He may have been effeminate and silly. but his
attire was brilliant and his manner gentle. The
swell, who came later, was high liver, a good
fellow and a bustling, busy and happy man of
fashion. But the dude was silly, simple, neg
alive, disagreeable, shy, reserved and stupid
creature. His parallel was never before seen In
the history of the world

during the plague of those insects in
Kansas and Nebraska, and. If they
were always plentiful, would prob
