DAVID DAVIS'S REGULARITY.

graph.
A. lady of this city has an album
containing the autographs of all the
United States Senators of the last
Congress. The autographs are gen
orally written in a bold hand, and
about the middle OF the page, but
that of Senator David Davis is written
at the very top of a page, and so close
to the edge that nothing can be writ.
ten above. This is well.known pc
cuIiarity of the distinguished Illinois
Senator-and "thereby hangs a tale"
When he first entered the Senate an
honest granger handed him a sheet of
paper, and requested him to honor
him with his autograph. The oblging
Senator complied at once. The hon.
est granger thereupon wrote the fol-
lowing above the autographs:
On demand, for value received, l
promise to pay the sum of 1897, with
interest at 10 per cent per annum.
The granger then presented the
note at Senator Davis's home bank,
and it was paid on sight.
This is why the Senator always
writes at the top of page, in every
autograph album presented to him.

THE GREENWOOD AFFAIR.
1t Is Probably Most Unfortunate but
Outrageous Mistake.

A TIMES reporter had an interview,
last evening, with Mr.. Greenwood, who
was escorted out of Bullion, last Sun.
day night, by gang of masked and
armed men. He said that he was al
a loss to know what the boys could
have against him, as he never said o,
did aught against any Miners Union
Last September he accepted the APP
pointment of Deputy Sheriff for Bull.
lion precinct - and held the office
until November Is, when he left Bull.
lion to seek other employment, and
went to Broadford. At that time nc
one expected any trouble there. But
at any rate, since November Is Mr.
Greenwood has refused to act as Dep.
uty.
Conscious of no wrong.doing, Mr.
Greenwood desires to know what, il
any, charges have been preferred
against him, that he may disprove
them as becomes an honorable man
and member of the Miners
Union
We are satisfied that there is mis-.
take here. In troublous times people
are but too apt to suspect their best
friends, and act Oh impulse. In this
way wrongs are sometimes inflicted
that lifetime cannot ri ght. If any
Union man has any charges to prefer
against Mr.. Greenwood that gentle
man will doubtless seize the first op.
portunity to stand his trial before his
fellows. If such charges are not pre-
ferred-and speedily-it will be evil
dent that Mr.. Greenwood is the victim
Of the personal enmity of some lndivid.
ual connected with the Union.
We suspect that this whole matter
grew out OF the attempt of women OF
the town, to establish house of ill.,
fame in Bullion last fall. At that
time, Mr.. Greenwood being deputy
sheriff, hc succeeded in maintaining
the peace and in upholding the law Or
order, Notwithstanding a number Of
the boys-led and melted, posslbly,by a
mine superintendent-had determined
to drive them out of town. Mr..
Greenwood had no sympathy what
ever for the women, and only fulfilled
his sworn duty in the premises.--ED.

The demand for G. II. Moore's new

Inquest on the Cincinnati Fire Victims.

CINcINNATI May 25.-At the coroners in
quest to-day, upon the bodies of the victims of
last Thursdays fire at Sullivan s printing works
the most important testimony was that of }. j.
Sullivan, the senior proprietor. He said the
occupation of the fifth floor was of recent date
and that until within week or two be Tore the
fire there were but seven girls up there He had
frequently told them that in case of fire they
should escape by the roof. There was nova
BILE ladder up there to reach the trap door, and
the girls knew of this. They laughed when he
told them of this mode of escape, and said they
could easily get out that way. He had not
spoken to the recently employed girls about this
means of escape. His brother, who ran to the
fifth story, escaped that way. In another part of
the fifth floor was a skylight leading to the roof
The inquest is not yet ended. Some feeling has
been aroused by statements that the telegraph
and telephone wires prevented the putting up Of
ladders in time to save lives. Chief Fire En-
gineer Wisby says these lives could not have
been saved by ladders if there had been no wires
on the street. Death came too soon after the
benZine fire started

Pleuro-Pneumonia in the West.

CHICAGO May 25.-Dr N. H. Paaren, Illinois
State Veterinarian is in the city day, after
having made tour of the pleuro-pneumonia
infected districts in Missouri. He declines to de-
tail the results in full of his Investigations, as
he had not yet reported to the Governor, but
enough is learned from him to warrant the as
sertion that the situation is not near so bad as
at first reported. Great pressure has been
brought to bear on Governor Ogesby to have
him relax somewhat in his restrictions regarding
the receipt of cattle from Missourinto this State.
DR.. Paaren's report will undoubtedly have the
effect of causing the Governor to modify the
present rules to large degree. The State
Veterinarian of Wisconsin accompanied Dr.
Paaren on his visit to the quarantine localities
in Kane county. DR.. Paaren says the people in
that section impressed the Wisconsin repre-
sentative as being averse to aiding the Illinois
State authorities in their efforts to stamp out
pleuro pneumonia, and he decided to report to
the Wisconsin State authorities advising a
quarantine against Illinois.
