Sandy De Long was cowboy, and

recovered from it. He came to Salt
Lake three months previous to the
signing of these articles, with half
a-dozen cayuse ponies and three or
four badly-cOmpleXi0ned and ill

up in two lines of business-as q

What feeling more natural under
such circumstances than desire to

who would facilitate the spending
of his gains? He had seen Cal

favorite broncho Ben Butler in the
Sixth Ward ditch; the horse drank

Sandy saw her enter her fathers
elegant home near the calf pasture.
He could get no nearer than three
blocks, for his charger had travelled
not far from mile and half that
day and was given out; besides, a
gentleman wanted the animal next
day Sunday, and there was a $40

strained his impetuous dis

and the currency referred to, and,
taking an accurate mind-map of the
surroundings, carried his horse 10

The cowboy had a bad attack of
mash in the first degree.

A writ was served in Madison last Tuesday by Sheriff Hart, of Guilford, upon Judge Fl. B, Wilcox and Charles B. Scranton under in teresting circumstances. During the Hayden trial said Scranton was employed to serve subpoonas and his fees amounted to $23.79. This amount was taxed in the bill of costs and allowed by the. Superior court, and Judge Lynde Harrison drew the money, in cluding some $500 in other fees, from the clerk of the Superior court. When Scranton applied for his pay Judge Harrison said there was some mistake and requested him to get the files or subpsnas in the case, but Justice Wilcox refused to give them up, and there fore Judge Harrison refused to pay Scranton the money When Judge Harrison returned from Europe Scranton tried again to get the money and was again refused payment. As he needed some mouey at that time he ap- piled to Wilcox, who advanced him the sum, for which Scranton gave him written order on Judge Harrison for theamount with interest. Judge Harrison has continued to refuse to pay Wilcox the money, and has now sum- moned Wilcox and Scranton and the Treas urer of the State before the Court of Con- mon Pleas in New Haven to interplead and rectify the alleged mistake in taxing costs by the Superior court The result of the case will be looked for with much interest here.
 The scholars of the High school held an entertainment last Friday evening at the Town Hall for the purpose of raising funds to replace the dictionary and other things that were destroyed or sto- len by some miserable wretch some time ago The compositions were very interesting, the music was excellent and the class histories afforded much amusement. The amount raised was fifteen dollars.
