adding their beauty and purity, with the
luxuriant growth of green grass, sweet

rushing over its stony bed, the blue SKY
above, with here and there its clouds,
white patches of snow in nearly every di-

on the mountain sides, waterfalls and
pools combine to make this series Of parks
like many other apartments opening into
the grand theater, the Yellowstone valley,
a world in miniature, when fancy and od-
dity in the design and workmanship held
full sway of the brain of nature. The

are the Lillian falls, thirty feet, and the
Courtney falls, sixty feet, together with
several series of rapids, and from there

The Are of Monuments.

This quarter of the century has been
prolific in monuments, and may be
called the golden age, not of sculpture
perhaps, but of sculptors. AS fast as
spirited ediles improve old cities by
clearing away narrow streets, there is q
demand for groups in marble or bronze
to adorn open spaces; and philanthro-
pists are ever at work discovering emil
nent persons who deserve to have their
likenesses set upon pedestals. When
somebody inquired of Cato the Elder
why no statue had been raised to him,
he said that he would rather have to
answer this question than hear it asked
wherefore he had been honored with a
statue; but in .hese days nobody thinks
of questioning u mans claim to mon
ument if subscribers can be found to

Kings and Crowns.

Can any one of us, who has, by rea-
son of birth and residence in this Re-
public, been debarred from associating
with emperors and kings, think of those
rulers as human beings whose livers get
out of order as do the livers of ordinary
mortals, and who have the same trouble
with dandruff in their hair that we
haveP With the exception of Colonel
Ochiltree, we must reply; "Assurediy
not"
We cannot imagine king in linen
duster, neither can we think OF the heir
apparent to throne with his suspen-
ders tied together by string, and n
sample of his hair sticking out through
hole in his hat. When we think OF
kings we Immediately associate them
with crowns and royal scepters. We
picture to ourselves a magnificent,
stern, ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
specimen of humanity, with crown
on his august head, sitting bolt upright
in gorgeous gold and pearl inlaid dem
lists chair, n jewelled scepter in his
hand and row of noble dukes bowed
to the ground before him.
Have we not seen such royalty on the
stage, and would it not be impossible
to imagine q man with glittering dia-
dem on his head, and diamond-hilted
scepter under his arm trying to put an
old set of harness on q sore-backed
mulep We have tried to conjure up
such q tableau, but it won't conjure.
The kings of the Eastern Hemisphere
do not 90 to the theater or to the circus
with scepters in their hands or crowns
on their heads. If king at a circus
put his crown under the seat, some one
might spit in it or put his foot on it.
and if he should wear it on his head,
the people in the seats behind might
shout, "Shoot the CROWN" and that
would make the king angry, and he
would 90 out and demand his money
back at the door.
Editors do not wear crowns, although
the temptation is great, for crowns are
really cheaper than hats. The crown
that the Gar of Russia wears has been
in use over 600 years; it has never had
to be repaired, and is yet good for
many years service. The number of
hats that q man has to buy in 600 years
would cost more than two diamond-en-
crusted diadems. SifttngS.

An Uncommon Duel.

Gus Davis, of Philadelphia. came to
Camp Rio Pecos, N. NJ, some months
ago, and was engaged as cattle herd
er by Mr.. John Shure, wealthy stock
owner. Davis soon showed himself to
be n useful man, and gained the esteem
of his employer and the envy of the
other herders. In less than three
months he had resisted so many tempt
atoms to quarrel with his Mexican as
sociates that he was nick-named "The
Northern Coward"
One morning about three weeks ago,
while Davis was on duty looking after
his cattle, Jesus Garcia, Mexican,
saluted him, as usual, with ''Good
morning, Northern Coward,
Human endurance has its limit, and
Mr.. Davis Thought he had been insulted
long enough. The Mexican was ut
| first surprised at the stand taken by the
Philadelphian, but word brought on
word, until each determined that the
other must die.
The quarrel soon brought all the
neighboring cowboys to the spot. The
mode of combat was speedily arranged.
A chain thirty inches long was secure
| ly locked about their necks. A Mexican
dagger, q two-edged knife six inches
long, was given to each of the duelists.
The obliging cowboys then lowered the
men into q long canon seventy-five feet.
There they were to remain until the
one killed the other. A key to the lock
was given to each, and no one was al
lowed to interfere further. The rest OF
the cowboys then went to work, as il
nothing usual had occurred.
For some days nothing was known
as to the result of the encounter. Yes
terday, however, Davis, very weak and
emaciated, returned to camp, dragging
after him the lifeless body of Jesus
Garcia.
The story that Mr.. Davis tells is as
follows: ''The fight began as soon as
we reached the bottom of the canon.
Being locked together, each was always
in reach of the others knife. After
such deliberation as the few moment;
during our descent permitted decided
that unless the first blow were fatal
the chances were decidedly in favor Of
the party assailed. accordingly al
lowed the Mexican to strike the frs
blow. He plunged his knife into my
side AS soon as found his arm thus
stretched forward, cut the muscles o.
his right arm near the shoulder. I'm
mediately his knife dropped. While hC
was STOPPING to pick up his knife,
sent my blade into his body from The
back. Before / could strike again hi
had picked up his knife and cut thu
cords of my arms, so as to render then
both useless"
Here we both stood for few
seconds, when / discovered that hi
heart had been reached. His body
soon fell in the death struggles to til,
ground The chain was so short tina
he brought me down with him. In ;
few minutes he was dead. l was S,
weak from loss of blood that lay dow
by his side. We lay there for five day
and nights, until hunger drove me t.
make last effort l climbed TIT
steep incline of the walls of the canol
and reached the camp, carrying Garci;

The Harlness Case.

Editor Morning Ne,rs: A paragraph IN
the Sunday Telegram of Sunday last is
calculated to mislead the public as to the
mind of the jury in this case.
The testimony, as understood 1t, was
that Hardness was in possession Of a
forged deed upon which he had obtained
money from the Pulaski Loan AssOcia-
ton, and the charge against him was not
forgery, but uttering as true a forged
deed; Secondly, the deed was in his own
Dillon, whose name was forged
to the deed, testified that
there had never been any contract
or understanding whatever with Hark-
ness to give rise to the existence of such a
| paper. Fourthly, that he had seen Hark-
ness in New York city three times during
the past year-in the spring, in the sum-
mer and in the fall-and not one word
was said in reference to the purchase OF
the lots covered by the deed. Filthy,
Colonel VIM. Garrard testified that when
Hardness approached him to obtain money
from the Pulaski Loan Association he
stated that he had exchanged lands
with Dillon for these lots. And
siXthly, the mother of Hardness, on
the witness stand, stated that he had LETT
here with his wife for New York city
somewhere from Ine I0In W the @Vln Vi
last August, which must have placed him
in New York on or about the 21st of Au-
gust, the day of the date of the forced
deed. Indeed, Hardness admitted himself
in his statement that he was in New York
in August.
The forgery was doubtless committed
in New York, and Hardness may have
had an agent or cOnfidante in the person
of Chalmers" but as forgery was not
the charge against him, [ was, and am
still, unable to see, in the face of the testi-
mony on the side of the State, how the
Juggling in of Chalmers could help the de-
tense; and it affords me some satisfaction
to know that three Others>were thoroughly
of the same mind as myself-and not
eleven for acquittal," as stated in the

MARTHA by the Hess COmpany-A
Splendid Performance.
FlOtow's beautiful opera "Martha" was
given an excellent Interpretation by the
Hess Companv last night. The Theatre
was crowded to Its fullest capacity, ana
hardly a seat was vacant in the whole
house. The audience was one of the most
brilliant of the season, and was a crafty
ing compliment TO the well-known
worth Of the company. The interest OF
this opera, as in the others, principally
centered in Miss Darlington, whose sing
ing last night was superior TO her former
efforts of the engagement, either III
Faust or FRA DiavOlO." The opera
MARTHA in which she assumes the title
role affords excellent opportunities IOl
the display of her pure sweet voice. Hei
rendering of the song, 1.-THE Last hose
of Summer" was a triumph, anu
was greeted with round aItei
round of applause. In response
she repeated the song and was again ap-
plauded. Miss Darlington achieved q
proud success last night, and was twice
| called before the curtain. The presenta-
! ton was made with good support, IN
which Miss Elsner as Nancy an0
| Messrs. Peakes and Appleby as ''Plunket
