Fish Of One, Flesh of Another.

From the Omaha Bee.
1t is reported that the Wyoming cattle
men are taking down their fences in ODE
dienee to the order of the Interior De-
partment. The Brighton Ranch COM
pany in Nebraska, however, is making Il
vigorous legal fight to maintain its fences.
Why should the Interior Department dis
criminate against Wyoming, and permit a
Nebraska company to monkey around
in a court and be given the advantages OF
innumerable t~echnicalities and various de-
lays? Before the end of the suit is reached
the Brighton Ranch company will have
quadrupled its herds by natural increase,
and meantime have had the benefit of a
fenced enclosure. That company and all
others in Nebraska that have illegally put
up fences are simply trespassers, and they
should be treated in the same way as the
Wyoming cattlemen have.

Mr.. Chas. W. Riner mounted a long
step ladder in his Office yesterday morning
to fasten down a transom. For the pur-
pose he used a heavy weight from the
hay scales. He had just about finished
when a lady came to the office door and
attempted to enter. He descended the
ladder hastily leaving the weight on a lit
tie ledge above the door. In moving the
ladder out of the way the weight was
knocked out of place and, falling about six
feet struck Mr.. Riner on the front part of
the head. Fortunately he wore a stiff felt
hat and the weight struck at the point
where the rim Joins the crown, thus
shielding him somewhat from the effect Of
the blow. Mr.. Riner, however, received
a long and ugly cash which stunned him
for awhile, but just escaped fracturing the
skull. DR.. Marston dressed the wound.

THE wHIRIIeIG OF TINE.
A Watch stolen Two Years Ago Found
Yesterday.


During the month Of October, 1882, the
firm of II. & NJ. D. Altman occupied a
wooden building on Sixteenth street,
where the IdIeman block now stands.
One night the rear door of the place was
opened and the safe was burgiarized. The
robber or robbers obtained $45 in cash
and a fine gold watch valued at $I75, but
a still more valuable timepiece was not
disturbed. The latter watch was wrapped
in common newspaper, and it was sup
posed that the burglar overlooked it. The
small interior iron door Of the safe was
forced and the robbery was evidently a
deliberately planned undertaking. The
stolen watch was the property of Mr..
Charles Bloom, a packer employed at
Camp Carlin. He had left it with Mr.,
John Shingle, who had a saloon near
Altman's store, and who had loaned
Mr.. Bloom SIS. for which amount the
watch was left as security. Mr.. Shingle
had put the watch in Altman safe deem
ing that a secure place for its storage until
the debt. for which it was security, should
be paid.
The burglary was reported to 7. JEFF
Carr, the City Marshal at that time. but
no trail of the burglars or the stolen prop
erty was obtained until last Sunday.
Sunday evening Mr.. Bloom happened
to be in West Meyers saloon when he
noticed, in the hands of Charles Smith, a
watch hat he at once believed was the
one stolen from Altman's over two years
ago. He at once asked Smith to let him
examine the time-piece. The request was
granted and Bloom then identified it as
the ore lost when the safe was burglar
lied. The matter was again placed in
Mr.. Carr's hands and an investigation
was made.
The number Of the watch was ascer-
tanned from David Miller, of whom it was
purchased, and the Identification was then
made complete. Smith, who is a faro
dealer, stated that he had received the
watch from Mr.. Moyer as n present. Sub
sequently he said that a we'll known at
torney had given tito him, and again he
said he had purchased it of n G. L.
Mechem. Accompanied by Mr.. Carr,
Smith vent to his o and from his
trunk produced a bill of sale for the watch
and chain. The document is dated
October %, 1888, is signed by Mechem
and is witnessed by 4. Z. Wilson. In ex-
PLANTATION of the bill of sale Smith states
that he loaned Mechem $50, and the lat
ter, being unable to repay the money, gave
him the watch in settlement of the ac-
count.
The various stories told by Smith re-
suited in suspicious as to the manner ia
which he obtained the watch, and

The COMPROMISED OF QuarrelS.

There is a man in New Orleans who
makes a good living as a compromiser
of 1uarreIs. He is q lawyer, with q
conciliatory temper AMI an oily tongue.
While other men are stirring up strife
he is turning away wrath-fo a con
%sideration. He made a great deal OF
money in the good old days so fast re-
ceding. when a duel before breakfast
was AS Indispensable to the happiness
of the Crescent City as fish on Friday.
Hot with wine. two young bloods would
quarrel. The lie would pass, and then
q challenge. Now. you see things more
clearly through the cool gray morning
air than through the cigarette smoke Of
q cafe, and very often the ~clearness OF
vision comes while you look through
the quivering blue atmosphere at the
sparkling stars of the midnight sky.
Hence it was that our friend the peace
maker was never out of a job. His
title WAS second" usually, but his
business was tC see that no necessity
arose for his services rs such. One casc
Is good sample. Ayoung society man
had called another society man a
coward with the avowed purpose OF
making him fight 4 duel. OF course,
both were well branded when the insult
was given. A challenge passed at once;
but by the time it had been received
Mr.. InSulter had grown cool and cau-
fious. He asked Mr.. Compromise to
act as his second. Now" said the
latter, ''to come to the point at once,
do O want to iight?:" Between our
selves" responded the young man.
Il don't" '.Do you want to go on the
field at all?' asked the second; ''be-
cause it viii cost you more to get out
of going on the field than to get II Of
the duel after you're one face toface.'
81 don't want to go IN the field at ALL"
said the principal, land | don't care
what it costs to keep off," Every

and write just such an acceptance as I
tell you to write" Acceptance"
Eyes, certainly. Let me manage this
affair."" said the second, lin my own
way. Now write out an acceptance in
the usual form, and put in for weapons
rifles and for distance two PAGES"
"Why. that's muzzle to breast; murder
outright" exclaimed the principal.
..Write what l tell you," said the SEQ
ond. When it was written the second
carried it himself to the second of the
challenger. "Why. this is butchery,"
said the latter second; ''butchery in c0ld
blood. Neither mar could possibly sur
yiye." ..Then do I understand that
