the soldiers in the latter part of the
war of designating their respective
companies and battalliOns by the
queer name of "outfitsn and ''iay

The story goes that Gen. POllgn

to know where he could fluid Gen.

What a one sided reciprocity
treaty can do, can be seen in the eff
feet ofthe one between this Govern
ment and the Sandwich Islands.
In 1873 the importation of sugar
from Ithose Islands to the United
States amounted to 36,919 ,575'
pounds.
This ~importhas increased every
year until in 1884 it reached 128,
S59,965 pounds, nearly three and
one half times az much. This shows
how handsomely the United States
Hawaiian reciprocity has treated
those Islands, enabling the planters
thereon to prosper and grow rich
at the expense of sugar growers At
home. This is the same kind of a
feast Arthur and the Radical Sen
ate undertook to give their consti
tuents by sneaking through simi
lar treaties, last winter, with Spain
and Mexico, by which Cuban and
Mexican sugar growers could roll
in wealth, and at the same time
destroy sugar culture in the United
States

Forboding with rainbow hues the Night
Whose star i. flags were yet unfurled.

Through rose-tints over all the clouds,

Then perfect love was given as mino

The Dog Came High.
lChicago Tribune

lNncaEO 1flD0ne.l
Talking about Maine reminds me of some
thing that happened down our way when L
was boy. A young fellow very bashfuD
was out riding with his girl one afternoon,
when he saw an old farmer coming down
the road in his hay rigging. On the seat
beside him was a little cur
Pm going to have some fun with him,
Sal" said the young swain, hauling up
alongside of the old farmer. The farmer
drew up and the young fellow bawled out,
nudging Sally: Say, stranger, I'm power
fully struck with that there dog of yourn
and I'd like to buy him"
We'll" responded the farmer, 81 think
an ALFRED lot of that dorg myself, and l
guess amt particular about a-sellin' of
him"
''Well, allow that l want him powerful
bad, and don't mind givin' s. for him"
The farmer saw lie was being guyed, so
he said: you pear to be a likely young
cuss, an you've got a gol darned handsome
young gal there with you. l tell you what
I'll do. You throw your arm around that
ere gal am give her good smack, and 1
1on't niad givin yer he dorg.'
Thct was enough fvr the bashful young
man; he whipped up his horse and went on.
They rode along in silence for an hour or
more, Sci in her corner and Bill in his.
Then Sal sort Of edged up to Bills side,
turned scarlet, and, looking coyly up into
his eyes, said: Say, Bill, it pears to me
you didn't want the dog powerful bad, did

was once a Justice of the peace, and a
good many funny little incidents occurred
while held that Office. lido not allude to
nv official life here in order to call atten-
tion TO my glowing career, for thousands of
others no doubt could have administered
the Affairs or the Office as we'll as did, but
rather Co speak OF one incident which took
placs while was J. P.
One night after had retired and gone to
sleep q Enilkman called Bill Dunning rang
the main bell and got me out of bed. Then
he told me that man who owed him milk
bill OF e35 was all loaded up and prepared
to slip across the line overland into Colorado,
there to grow up with the country and ac-
quirs other Indebtedness no doubt Bill de
sired au attachment for the entire wagon
load Of goods and said he had an officer at
hand to serve the writ.
But said I ss / wrapped welcome"

together he is not winging his way down
the valley of the PardeeP'
''Never mind that, Jedge," says William.
'sYou just fix the dockyments and FL tend
to the defendant
In an hour Bill returned with $35 in cash
for himself and the entire costs of the court,
and SIS we settled up and fixed the docket
asked Bill Dunning how he detained the de-
PENDANT while we made out the affida Wit
bond and writ of attachment.
You rsckollect, jedge," says William,
ssthat the Vaughn wheel is held onto the
exile with big nut. No Vaughn kin go any
length Of time without that there nut onto

We ser we'd the writ and he paid my bill and

preston, and then 1 says to him, Pardner,'

ANECDOTES OF JUSTICE.
Justice of the Peace Dispensing Law
at New York Prices.
[BnI Nye.I


[Bin Nye.I
The Justice of the peace is sometimes a
popularity, and if some one does not watch
him he will exceed his jurisdiction. 1t took
a constable, asheriff, a prosecuting attorney
and club to convince q Wyoming justice Of
the peace that he had no right to send man
to the penitent.ary for life Another JUS
tice in Utah sentenced a criminal 10 be hung
on the following Friday, between II and
o'clock of said day. but he couldn't enforce
the sentence A Wisconsin justice of the
peace granted divorce and in two weeks
married the couple over aga1n-ten dollars
for the divorce and two dollars for the re
lapse.
Another one, when his first case came
UT. isrked candle box around behind the
dining room table, put his hat on the back
OF his head, borrowed a chew of tobacco
from the prisoner, and said: Now, boys,
the courts OPEN The first Teller that says
a word unless l speak to him will get par
allied. Now, tell your story" Then each
witness and the defendant reeled off his
yarn without being sworn. The justice
fined the defendant $40 and made the com
planning witness pay half the costs The
justice then took the fine and put it in his
pocket adjourned court, and in an hour was
so full that it took six men to hold his house
still long enough for him to get into the
doors.
A North Park justice of the peace and
under sheriff formed a partnership years
ago for the purpose of supplying people with
Justice at New York prices, AMI by doing
strictly cash business they dispensed with
good deal of Justice, such as it was.
1t was a misdemeanor to kill game and
ship it out of the state, and as there was a
good deal killed there, consisting of elk,
antelope and black tail deer especially, and
as it could not be hauled out of the park at
that season without going across the Wy
onling line and back again into the state of
Colorado, the undersher fl would load him
self down with warrant IS, signed in blank,
and station himself on horseback at the foot
of the pass to the north. He would then
arrest everybody unfortunately who had
any fraction Of a deer, antelope or elk on
his wagon, try the case then and there, put
on fine of $25 to S75, which, if paid, never
reached the treasury, and then he would
wait for another victim. The average man
would rather pay the fine than go back a
hundred miles through the mountains to
stand trial, so the undersherif and justice
thrived for some time But one day the
undersherif served his patent automatic
warrant on a young man who refused to
come down. The officer then drew one of
those large baritone instruments that gen
orally has a coward at one end and corpse
at the other. He pointed this at the young
man and assessed a fine of $50 and costs.
Instead of paying this fine, the youth, who
was quite nimble, but unarmed, knocked
tae bogus officer down with the butt end of
his six-mule whip took his self-cocking Gre
dentials away and lit out. In less than a
week the justice and his copper were in the
refrigerator.

nothing, for the journalist politely stated
his errand, and the raihOad president re-
piled sdsvely that be did not wish to give
the desired information. Nevertheless, the
reporter took out note book, and pcnciled
in it so long and deliberately that, IN the
Judgment of Mr.. Depew, not less than col
umn of interview was going to be the result
Of the very hrief dialogue. He covertly
watched the work, and finally, just as the
book was shut, went ashore with as much
dignity as his plight OF costume would per-
mt, and firmly grasped the volume.

WASHINGTON CITY, Dec lO.-The follow.
ing are some of the views of congressman on
the presidents Message:
Mr.. Rowell, OF lllinois--There is dynamite
in it, The west will not agree to the recon-
mcndations as to silver. No one there, ex-
cept few bankers wants the unconditional
repeal of the silver-tlolar law.
Mr.. Hewitt of New Iork--The silver part
of the message is very strong, but the tariff
is less satisfactory.
Senator Hoar-Eyery thing that the prcsi-
dent has recommended the Republicans have
tried to do for the last ten years, but the
Democrats Of the house have prevented
them doing it.
Senator Cullom-The message contains an
immense amount of valuable inforIna ton,
and will be of service to congress that far,
at least.
Mr., Randall-The message is an excellent
document
Mr. Spfinger-lt is "A very able, business
like message. 1t shows wonderful knowledge
of tie details of government
Congressman Morrison-The message is
right as far as goes, and it is not calculated
to have any effect one way or the other upon
tariff legislation.
