Lawton,s Murderer Under arrs.t.

1 Lawton's Murderer Under Arrest.
 NEW BEDFORD, Mass, Dec. 25.-For three | days and nights past the State detectives and
 local police have been actively pfosect1ting
 the search for the mysterious murderer of 1 Richard N. Lawton, who was shot and in- | stantly killed while driving on the Wareham
 road last Tuesday morning by some person
 concealed near the roadside. The detectives had worked on the case but short time
 when the evidence collected by them directed
 suspicion strongly to Samuel F. Besse,
 young man of very unsavoty reputation liv-
 Ing near the scene of the murder. Thurs
 day morning the detectives began search in
 the vicinity for Besse, who has been missing since the time of the murder and at length 1ound him concealed in the woodshed of George Burnham's house near Wareham Besse made a desperate resistance, but was overpowered and locked up in the Wareham jail. The facts duplicating Besse gathered oy the detectives are entirely eircumstantia1, but form so complete chain of evidence as to leave little doubt of his guilt. He will | be arraigned in the morning.

Fears of an Indian Outbrenk.

PORTLAND, Oregon, Dec. 25.-A Port Townsend, W. T., special says: A number of citizens of Quellente, town one hundred and twenty five miles distant, telesraphed that an Indian outbreak was feared and ask ed for protection. A revenue cutter at once took on board a number of soldiers from the fort and has proceeded to the scene of threatened danger. The trouble doubtless grows out of the iD-treatment of the Indians by the white settlers. It is not believed that it will be serious, but no particulars have as vet been receiv ed.

A Great Irrigating CanaI.

There is now in progress in Merced
county, California, great irrigating
canal. Merced, the capital Of the
county, lies in the heart of the San
Joaquin valley, which has been for some
years the chief heat-producing section
of the State. The valley extends from
the Sierra Nevadas on the east to the
skirt of the coast range on the west, its
greatest width being ninety miles, and
its length from north to south about
forty miles. The town of Merced is
expected to make enormous strides when
the canal Is completed. The first sight
of the ditch suggests the earthworks OF
fort, the ground being ridged up from
six to eight feet. There are 300 men at
work on the canal. The undertaking
was begun on March IA, 1888, and has
been carried on continuously ever since.
The canal will run across the country
from the Merced river just above Snel.
ling to Plainsburgh, ten miles below the
city of Merced, on the Southern Pacific
railroad. The slope during this whole
distance is gradual one, and the
canal is carried we'll up on a slight ele-
vation, so that without artificial means
the water will flow over the wide extent
of level valley land which is to be irri-
gated The entire length of the canal
will be thirty i've miles, of which sixteen
miles are now completed, In the
portion which has been built there is one
tunnel trihe over mile long, and an.
other of sixteen hundred feet is now be-
ing excavated. The general grade of
the canal is one foot to the mile. Among
the hands employed are $50 Chinese.
They receive 81 day and board them
selves, while the white men receive $40
a month and their board. The Chinese
live in camp by themselves, and run
their commissariat. The company which
has charge of the enterprise has expended
already nearly 500, 900, and it is roughly
estimated that the entire cost of the
work will be double that sum. Land on
the banks of the canal, which was previ-
ously valued at So, so per acre, has now
advanced to IS per acre, and the owners
claim that it is worth $35 per acre. Close
to the town of MERGED, however, land
can not be bought for less than $3.50 per
acre. Chicago Times.

An Intoxicating Palm.

The Missionary Herald gives an account
of an inland tour lately made by the
Rev. DIR. Richards, a missionary of the
American Board, stationed at Inham-
bane, on the east coast of Africa, from
which the following in relation to the
Amakwakwe tribe was taken:
They have no gardens at all. They
are so frequently robbed by Umzila's
impis (soldiers) that they have become
quite discouraged. Another reason is
that the native fruit is capable of sus.
tanning life, and is abundant; and, again,
the palm wine flows freely all over the
country. This palm tree is four or five
feet high, seldom ten feet. 1t manifests
little life, save at the top, where a few
leaves appear, looking like flower pot
on a stump. These leaves are all cut off.
and from the cut each tree yields daily
about a pint of delicious juice but
highly Intoxicating when allowed to
stand for few hours. There seems TO
be no limit to these trees, and we were
surrounded on every hand by drunken
men and women. Even little children
we're staggering about as inglOriously as
their parents. Ii was difficult to avoid
trouble with these people, yet our guns
were respected, and ball fired care.
lessly at a near tree would produce quiet
for half an hour. They were coarse,
rough, drunken fellows, often plunder-
ing, often plundered, and accustomed to
quarrels and fights not altogether blood
less. One could scarce expect to find
pleasure in passing amcng them"

birds rise, two to the left, one to

The man on the right kills his bird, the
man on the left kills with the first
barrel and misses with his second barrel.
Neither hunters nor dog stir step. The
left-hand man breaks his gun, draws out
the discharged shells and slips fresh ones
in their places. While he is loading, up
rises a fourth chicken, this time to the
left, The right-hsnd man knocks it over,
and at the discharge of his gun the
chickens rise on all sides. The left hand
man gets in both barrels and knocks
down two birds. They reload, and the
dog is told to "hunt 'em up" If the
birds are plenty and the stubbles in good
condition, the chances are that covey
will be found in each stubble.feld.
Hunters often "draw a blank, " as they
term it, and sometimes two coveys are
found in one field. The coveys vary
widely in size; sometimes as many as
thirty or forty birds are found together
and sometimes an old cock is found
alone with a field all to himself. The
chickens in different coveys also behave
differently. At times they will get up
singly, and in such case two shooters
will get nearly the whole covey. At
other times the whole covey will rise to.

shooting to make each of the four barrels
count. If the country and flight of the
birds allow, it is sometimes possible to
''mark a covey" and follow them from
field to field, unless they fly into the corn,
when pursuit is hopeless.

LUCKY DAYS.

The honey from the violet,
With hopes on which the heart is set,
Oh, then's the time for wooing,
For wooing, and for suing,
Dear lad, the time for wooingl
When August calls the locust
To sound the years undoing,
And like some altar dressed Of old
In drapery OF cloth of gold,
High pastures thick with broom unfold,
oh, then's the time for wooing,
For wooing, and for suing.
Dear lad, the time for wooing
When brown October pauses,
The ripened woodland viewing,
And all the sunny forests spread
Their fallen leaves, as hearts blood red,
A carpet 1T for brides to tread,
OBJ, then's tho tims for wooing,
For wooing, and for suing,

Oh, listen, happy lover,
Your happy fate pursuing:
Whom fields arc green, when woods are sere
When storms ere white, when stars are clear
On each sweet day OF each sweet year,
Oh. then's the time for wooing,
For wooing, and for suing,
Dear lad, the time for wooingl

Medical Virtues of Dogs Tongues.

NJ. Reimach having recently called at
tention to the mention, in the recently
discovered inscriptions at the Temple of
Eseulapius, in Epidaurus, of children
having been cured of blindness at that
sanctuary by having their eyes licked by
the sacred dogs. NJ. Henri Gaidoz states
that he has discovered the faith and
practices of the dog-cure among several
peoples and in number of religions.
The Hindoos believe that the English
kill dogs to obtain possession Of SOW
ereign remedy which is found in their
tongues. In Venetian legend, st. Roch
was cured by balsam distilled from the
tongue of his dog. Dogs tongues are
considered to have medical virtue by
many people in Portugal, France and
Scotland In Bohemia they let dogs lick
the faces of newborn children for good
luck" A belief in the existence OF di-
whites issuing from dogs, whose Office
it was TO lick the bruises of the wounded,
once prevailed in Armenia. In scene
in one of Aristophanes' plays Plutus re-
covers his sight in the Temple of Escdla-
Plus after being licked bv two Eerpents
which the god sent ior that purpose in
answer to his prayer.
