AN UNKNOWN CRANK.
Arrested for Pro,clin,g Aro,nd the Resident
of MRS. Garfield.

Arrested for Pro,cling Around the Residence
of Mrs. Garfield.
Cleveland dispatch: The unknown crank
who was arrested for prowling around the
residence of Mrs. Garfield had a hearing be-
fore Judge Hutchins at the police court this
morning. The usual questions as to his name,
residence, etc, were met with evasive an
swers. When asked whether he intended to
shoot Mrs. Garfield or hurt any one, he replied
that he might or he might not. After half an
hours useless questioning by the prosecution
Judge Hut hins took him in hand and gave
him to understand that he must answer the
questions put to him, and proceeded himself
to put some of them. The CRANK laughed
and informed the judge that he would answer
as many questions as he liked and according
to his own pleasure. The judge told the pris-
oner that he would commit him for contempt
unless he gave satisfactory answers to which
the crank replied: IAN right; commit. /
would as soon be locked up as to answer some
of the questions you have asked" The judge
then ordered him committed for contempt
until Thursday next. J. II. Rhodes, per-
sonal friend of the Garfelds, says that he has
seen the man before and that he is from an
city; the name he did not choose to
give at present. The prisoner is about 80
years of age.

THE UNION PACIFIC.
A Summary of the Report of President
adams.

A Summary of the Report of President
adams.
At the quarterly meeting of the directors of
the Union Pacific railway, recently held in
Boston, President Adams presented report
of which the following is summary:
To the Directors of the Union Pacific Rail-
way:-In view of the many unauthorized
statements which have been put FORTH both
publicly and privately, in regard to the finan-
cial outcome of the operations of the Union
Pacific system during the past year, 1t seems
advisable to submit something authentic. l
have caused the following statement for the
year ending June 30 last, to be prepared. The
companys fiscal year of 1883, and the first half
OF 1884. This period was one of general rail-
road depression, more especially felt by the
Union Pacific system, owing to the construc-
ton, competing roads and the prevalence of
war rates. The twelve months in question
covered, therefore, as unfavorable a period
as the Union Pacific system is likely to pass
through. During this exceptional period,
after paying every fixed charge including
the requirements of the companys sinking
fund, and all liabilities to the government, the
surplus income of the system applicable to
dividends amounted to 5.22 per cent on the
,company's capital. 1t is proper to add that
the earnings OF the summer months are
always much larger than in the winter. Those
of the second half of the year are generally
about 30 per cent more than those of the first
half. The Oregon Short Line will be complet-
ed to Huntington. the agreed point of con-
nection with the Oregon Railway and Naviga-
ton company's road, by the 18th OF Noyem-
Der. The first connection will be effected and
there is every reason TO believe that this will
Immediately result in large increase in traf-
flc. both for the Oregon Short Line and the
Union Pacific. The latter will thus be relieved
of heavy financial burden which 1t has been
forced to carry much longer than was antici
pated. The land sales have been larger than
ever before.

penitentiary. Having been annoyed by Smith
and getting angry, he slapped at Smith but
struck NARROW, at the same time drawing his
pistol Conductor McShane rushed in and
but after matters had become comparatively
quiet returned it to him. Meantime NARROW
pulled his pistol and commenced firing. Two
shots struck Conductor McShane, but neither
shot from Marlow's pistol struck Bell in the
hand. Bell pulled his pistol and fired several
SHOTS, one OF which struck NARROW in the
breast, When the train reached Jackson
physicians were summoned. and at once de-
clared that Marlow's wound was mortal.
NARROW has been mixed up in several scrapes,
some time ago. Smith is the son of a wealthy
merchant of Copiah county, but has been dis
carded by his parents

starlit beauty was liable to be married

he picked the lock of the fire-proof cast

in that pipe, and his tongue is made
out of burning fire. He is friend of

and makes us nice little light; but he
hates children, an if Bobby or should

because Minna told me-. The
small narrator relapsed into satisfied
silence, and her truth-loving mamma
fell to wondering which was really bet
ter-her own lame attempt at scientific
explanation or the highly colored fc-
ton of German Minna, which, while
an absolute falsehood, appealed at
once to the vivid Imagination of the
child, and effectually prevented her
pursuing any personal inve tigation OF

The rabbit is probably the most pro-
ductive of the whole rodent genus; a
single pair may be answerable for q
population of 100000 within five years.
Originally natives of Spain, the rabbits
once multiplied in that country, as'wen
as in some of the islands of the
Mediterranean, III such an alarming
manner that the people appealed for
military aid to assist in their destruc-
ton. And it was not until numbers of
ferrets and weasels were introduced
that the rabbit population began to
diminish. The quadrnpeds of Australia
are chiefly of the "marsupial" order !;
and from the great kangaroo down
to the wombat and kangaroo rat (both
burrowers) nearly all the tribe are her.
bivorous. The dingo, or native dog is
destructive only to sheep, while the
wildcat, though pretty common in some
parts, is not generally prevalent.
When, therefore, the rabbit was first
landed in Australia the land was all
bef ore him where to choose. In the
official Sydney market rate for January,
1873, the price of rabbits was quoted at
from Is. I'd. to IS. each, retail. Five
or six years later they were looked upon
as aggre. siye and destructive vermin,
and had SO rapidly overrun large tracts
of land as to become quite a scare to
the squatters. To-day every phase OF
the Australian rabbit plague is not only
regarded as of vital interest by the
colonists, but is subject of curiosity
and discussion throughout he civilized
world.

OUR KIND OF MAN.

[James w. Riley.]
The kind of man for you and me!
He faces the world unfinchingly
And smites, IS long as the wrong resists,
With knuckled faith and force-lke fists;
He lives the life he is preaching OF,
And loves where most is the need Of love.
His voice is clear to the deaf mans ears,
And his face sublime through the blind mans
tears;
The light shines out where the clouds were
dim,
And the widows prayer goes up for him.
The latch is clicked at the hovel door,
And the sick man sees the sun on more,
And out DER the barren field he sees
Springing blossoms and waving trees,
Feeling, as only the dying may,
That Gods own servant has come that way.
Smoothing the path as it still winds on
Through the golden gate where his loved
have gone.
The kind Of man for me and you,
However little of worth we do
He credits full, and abides in trust
That time will teach us how more is just.
He walks abroad and meets all kinds
OF querulous and uneasy minds,
And, sympathizing, he shares the pain
OF the doubts that rack us, hear and brain,
And, knowing this, as we grasp his hand,
We are surely coming to understand
He looks on sin with pitying eyes
Fen as the Lord, since Paradise
Else, should we read, though our sins should
glow
As scarlet they should be white as snow
And feeling still, with grief half glad
That the bad are as good as the good are
bad,
He strikes straight out for the Right-and
he
Is the kind of man for you and mel

Indianapolis Journal


It was the custom among the early
pioneers in Indiana in travelling through
the country to hail cabin by calling
out, "M no lives here?" and who's
here?" About the time of the treaty
of peace with the Indians, in 1918, and
when the state was very sparsely settled,
travel was attended by great dangers,
and no man ever rode away from home
without his rifle. As common pre-
caution of safety, when traveller saw
in the distance the smoke from camp
or cabin fire, he would call out upon
coming within hearing distance, Who's
here?" and from the response he would
know if he was among friends. From
a corruption of this form of salutation
the people of Indiana were called
Hcosiers. Doubtless, settlers, in writ
ing back to friends at their old homes,
would say that they were here among
the Hoosiers," and in few years the
appellation sprang into general use.
Gen. W. Il. II. Terrell, whose re-
searches in the early history of Indiana
have been thorough, and who may be
accepted as authority, says that this is
the true origin of the word.

The reporter followed his friend
around the corner and up two flights
of stairs to the top floor of a brick
building near the center of the city.
The apartment which they entered was
about twenty-five feet wide by sixty
feet in length, having two sky-lights
and six windows on the street front.
Along the same side of the room wzre
benches paint benches, with paint
grinding mills, bits of sandpaper, pound
brushes, sash tools, kegs OF paint, and
the like, just as one might expect to
find in the paint shops of wagon
factory.
Isn't this high art?" asked the art
ist, as he began pulling on pair of
pointing to o panoramic nightmare
which developed itself on the opposite
wall. He invited his visitor to look
the til ng over"
The thing" was perhaps twenty feet
in length by two feet in width, and was
tackled tightly on the board partition,
and above it was tackled an almost ex-
act duplicate There was almost every
style of land, water, and winter scape
on the strips of cloth. First came a
rough coast scene with lighthouse and
wreck, which then changed to wood
land with lake in the middle
and the ruins of castle and mountains
in the distance. Then came pastoral
scene with country road, flock of
sheep, and good foliage in the right
foreground; and so the strip changes
its aspect with sort of kaleidoscope
read ness every two or three feet.
What Is it, anyhow" asked the Wis
itor.
"Its lot of cheap oil paintings. We
paint EN- in the lump and cut EN- up
according to needs. We make panels
and large and small scenes by the rod
and let the frame-makers say how large
each single section shall be-"
But you'll get bad habits"
what, painting this kind of stuff
Not bit of it. Now just watch me,

blue. 1t was like painting the S de o.

And what do they sell for and
where?"
"They sell in auct on stores, chea1
furniture stores, and are sometimes solo
