Robert Hunton, distant relative
of our popular deputy James Brent,
real pleasant little fellow, is max
ing ''Jeems" visit.
James Brent returned from Las
Vegas Tuesday night. We heard,
in a round about way, but not from
Mr.. Brent, that jim gave a dude
New York lawyer that was defend
ing Aragon good Slapping in the
face for heaping one Insult upon
another ON the Lincoln county Off
cials. IF the lawyer said what be is
aecased Of saying, he ought TO have
had lis head smashed between two
limberger cheese. Lawyers should
not stoop to such low, beastly,
damablc work to try and gain a
point for their client. There should
be honor in law as well as in any
other business.
Deputy Sheriff Chas. Bull fetched
in the soldier Friday night, that knitted
0. y. Kelsey al the Fort a few days
ago. The soldier WAS making for
the railroad and was near Vera
Cruz when Will Lane, who had
only heard Of Kelsey being hurt a
few hours before, saw him up il. a
canon seldom frcquentcd by man,
and especially enc afoot. He rode
up TO where he saw the man, but the
man was no where to be seen. VIII
thought the fellows actions strange,
and made a hunt for him. 1t was
some few moments before he sue
ceeded III finding him, where he was
hiding III ditch covered with tall
grass. Will asked him what he was
hiding for, aad the soldier became
confused. VIII made him 90 to the
house with him, where he confessed
10 have been in the fight but not
to using the knife. Will drove him to
White Oaks and turned him
over TO Deputy Bull. The soldier
was rough looking customer his
face being black and blue, and as
he had tried to shave himself with a
pair Of scissors, it didn't hel p the or
namental shading around his eyes.
If he is acquitted for using the knife,
he will probably get two or three
years for descrting.
We have heard great many
STOKES about Judges and jurics on
the frontier, bat the following, from
Las Vegas, is ahead of the best.
Last week a man was being tried
for killing a COW. He acknowledged
tic killing, but PM in The plea t'at
the Cow was mad and was after him.
Tha evidence for the prosecution
showed plainly that after he killed
the COW he got away with the meat.
When the jury came in Judge AK
tell asked them if they had found a
verdict. They said they had.
''What is it?h asked the Judge.
"Not guilty" The Judge stepped
down in front of tie jury and OK
claimed: "1'his is id shame"
He sent f,r the grand jury and told
them that lie did not compel them to
find a bill against the prisoner, but
now, as the jury had brought in a
verdict Of innocent to the killing of
the COW, he thought the prisoner had
no right to steal the hide, The
grand jury found bill against the
prisoner for stealing the hide and he
was tiled and sentenced to one year
in the penitcntiary. 1t is good
deal like the fellow that was tried
in Arkansas. lie would be hung
for killing the negro in that state
and turned loose for stealing the
horse, or hung for stealing the horse
in Texas and turned loose for kill
ing the negro. Pay your money, &c.

ABDCRRAHNAN KHAN, AMER OF CABUL.
AbdulIahman or Abdurrahman Khan,
who, in the summer of 1880, was scknowl-
Ameer Of CahuI, had long been an exile in
Turkestan. He is the hneal representative
of Dost Mohammed, the founder of the
Barukzai dynasty, and ia the Oldest son of
Afzul Khan, who was in bis turn the eldest
son OF the Dost, and he is thus nephew to
the late Amer Sheie Ali. IL is believed
that Abdurrahman was born about 1880.
When Dost Mohsmmed died. in 1865
only twelve days after he had crowned his
victorious career by taking the city of He
rat, his iavOlite son and nominated heir,
Shere Ali, succeeded, at first quietly, to the
throne. Afzul Khan, the father OF Abdnr-
rahman. was at that time Governor Of Balkh
or Afghan TuIkestan, with his capital
st Takhtl-pul. Abduuahma1 had taken
to vile daughter of the
Amer of Bokhsra, and one of mis- sisters
y as married 10 son Of the same Prince.
The next brother OF Aful, named Aim
Khan, joined with Afzul and Abdurrah-
N an in a conspiracy against Shere All,
immediately upon his accession to the
principality OF Cabul. This caused the
outbreak OF civil war in Afghsnistsn in
1864. During that war Abdurrahman
played o leading part on the side OF his
father, Afzul and mis- uncle, Axiom, against
Shere Ali. In 1865, 1866 aud 1866 he won
several battles, and the great victories Of
Shaikhsbad and Khelat.l Ghilzsi were
mainly due to his ability. He was intrusted
with the Governorship of Balkh, where
he made himself popular by his
moderation and by marrying the
1865 he was unable, however, to offer sue
Cessiul resistance to his cousin Yakoub
Khan, son OF Shere Ali, who defeated him
at Baigsb, near BamiaD, and also finally at
Tinah Khan. AbduIrshman then fed from
the country, ultimately reaching Russian
territory. He was well received by General
Kaufman, who permitted him TO reside at
Ssmarcand, and allowed him pension of
25, 900 roubles year.
Abdurrahman Khan renamed in Turks
tan, an exile and pensioner oil tho Russian
Government. till 1873. when he suddenly
departed without taking leave, and slowly
made his way through Balkh TO the Cabul
frontier. No attempt was msde to detsn
him, and there was some mystery about bis
intentions. With regard to mis- personal
character and disposition, the reports
tnat were current seemed rather favor
able. The American traveller, Mr.. Schuyler,
who saw him at Tasbkend in company with
General Kaufman, remarked the dignity OF
his appearance and the intelligence of his
mind Another account. apparently from
official sources, describes him as transacting
ell business himself and working with secre-
taTies from an early hour in the morning.
What degree OF political education be may
have received it is difficult to conjecture.

A MYSTERY EXPLAINED.

MExIco, Mo, April 20.-The mystery of
the strange animal tha. for several nights
PAST has been frightening people in East
Mexico was closed up last night, much to
the relief of great many persons, especial
ly the dsrkies. Some days ago large and
fieTce-looking bloodhound escaped from an
"Unele Toms Cabin" Company at a small
station just east of this city. and not caring
to leave msn to look after the whereabouts
OF the ferocious brute the manager of
the company concluded to let him
go. Last night, upon the appear
ance { T The Uncle Toms Cabin Company in
this city, it wss announced that one of their
largest and most unmanBgesble blood
hounds had gotten loose near here. II was
was made clear and the search for the run
away commenced. Knowing the brute's
ferocious nature the searching party was or
gained mainly among the troupe, the col
oIed men belonging to the party in company
with few citizens going IN pursuit. Great
caution was recommended by the manager,
ss it was kn )wn the hound had run down 3
man and killed him in the wilds OF Arkan-
SIS. After search OF 1--WE or more hours the
dog was brought to bay in an old outhouse
III the eastern suburb Of the town. Even bis
former keepers were afraid to advance
condition 1t was feared he would be more
feIocious than ever and Kill some of them.
Strategy waE resoIted to, however, and before
the hound was fairly awsre of the presence
Of his pCrsueIs long pump chain was
thrown over his head snd made fast. The
brute becs me furious aud his captors began
20 realize that they had elephant on
their hands, A chunk OF meat was brought
into reouisitton, which for q moment
diverted the dogs attention, when four OF
an almost supefhuman effort, placed a mug
zle oyer his mouth 1t took nerve to do it.
When the captured animal was brought into
town great excitement prevailed anu at the
entertainment given by the company the
opera house was crowded from pit TO gallery.
The dog Was not permitted to appear upon
the stsge, however as it was feared he would
make another leap for liberty. The negroes
are highly jubilsnt over the capture, and all

Ammonia In Baking Powders.
Scientific American.


Amorg the recent discoveries in scienc
and chemistry, none is more important THAI
the uses TO which common ammonia can be
properly put as ieayeDing agent aud which
indicate that this familiar salt is, hereafter to
perform an active part IN the preparation of
our daily food.
The Cal Donate OF ammonia Is an exceed
iDgly volatile substance. Place smsI, por.
ton of it upon knife and hold ID over q
flame, and il will almost Immediately be en-
Tire lY developed into gss and pass off into
the air. The gas thus formed is a simple
composition OF nitrogen and HYDROGEN. No
residue is left from the ammonia. This gives
IL its superiority as a leaveniDg power
over soca and cream of tartar used alone,
and has induced It's use as 3 supplement to
these articles. A small amount Of ammo
MIA in the dough is effective in producing
bread that will be lighter, sweeter, aud more
wholesome than that risen by any other
leavening agent. When it is acted upon by
the heat OF baking the leavening gas that
raises the dough is liberated. In this act it
uses itself up, as it were; the ammonia IL en-
tirely diifused, leaving no trace or resiauum
whatever. The light, fluffy, hsky appear.
q &C, so desirable in buiscuits. etc., aud so
sought after by professional cooks, is said to
be impaired to them only by the use of this
agent.
The bakers and baking powder msnufac-
tureIs producing the finest goods have bssn
quick to avail themselves of this useful dis
coyery, and the bandsomest and best bread
and cake are now largely risen by the aid of
ammonia, combined, of course, with other
lesveDiDg material.
Ammonia is one OF the best known pro-
ducts Of the laboratory. II, as seems to be Just
ly claimed for II, the application of its prop
critics 10 the purposes OF cooking results in
giving Us lighter and more wholesome bread,
biscuit, and cake. it will prove 3: boon to
dyspeptic humanity, and will speedily force
iiself into general use in the new field to
which science has assigned it.
