A Gentle living in one of the
outlying precincts Of this county,
came into the city yesterday to see
the Governor relative to certain
threats that had been INDUCED
Against him and his three or four
Gentle neiphbors, by M"rm"ns.
They have told him that inside OF
thirty days there would not be a
Gentle left IN the Tertiary. and
that on the 24th the funny" husl-
ness would begin. The queer
movements If the brethren, coupled
with these threats, which were ex-
tended to him personally, had
thoroughly excited his apprehension
and he desired that something
should be done to insure protection
He saw Secretary Thomas, but the
result of hrs interview was not
learned. While this gentleman
was telling his complaint to Tri-
bune reporter, another gentleman.

came up and passed the reporter a

Since the fire, the APPEAL made
the suggestion that some means
might be adopted by which the
water company could contrsll th..
pressure on the supply pipes IN
case Of fire. in such a manner that
no one would have to be sent to the
valve which is above Phillips
ranch The COMPANY placed the
matter in the hands Of George Me-
Laughlin, who has devised con-
trivance by which Mr.. Helm, 1.-THE
tap of the fire bell can turn the
water on instantly from the house.
and turn it off the same way after
the fire
The operation is performed by
means Of q compound lever
worked by hydraulic cylinder.
The cylinder is filed with water,
and as long as it is full, the lever
is up. A pipe is designed to ru"
from the bottom IF the cylinder to
Mr.. Helms house and be has bar
to open the cock of this pipe 10

an inch outlet, but is supplied bv d
pipe one-third Nv large. After the
fire the exhaust pipe is closed il

is soon filed. which raises the

San Franeiseos Bruisers Gaetting

San Francisco Bruisers Gaettiaa
Down to work.
! On Monday last there was grea
excitement in San Francisco owe
the fact that Dempsey, who Wal
here with the Duncan Ross combi
nation, had whipped Kaneen pu
gilist of another faction, with bart
knuckles. The Chronicle intimat-
ed that this fight was but the be.
ginning Of q series of real bust
ness encounters On the heels Of
this comes the news that Jack Hal.
Imam had beaten Harry Maynard's
face to jelly on Market street.
and also licked his brother.
John Sweeny, the rancher, is An
old partner of Hallinan, and re-
ceived . private letter yesterday
morning relating the particulars Of
the affair.
It appears that Hallinan and
Jack Maynard met on Market
street and had some words. Hal
Imam piled on to Maynard, while
Harry Maynard acted as rinemaster
and kept the crowd back In q few
moments = thousand people were
there as spectators and formed an
immense ring, which Harry kept
in order, shouting. ITS fair fight
let 'em alone" Jack Maynard was
finally thrashed. and Hallinan
then tnrned loose on Harry, build
ing a head on him of frightful rro-
portions. It was about z o'clock in
the morning, before the police were
awake and no one interfered.
Maynard was interviewed by a
Post reporter, and stated that he
was drunk at the time and the
whole thing was a put up Job. He
says that when he is sober he can
lick Hallinan: and the chances are
that q glove match with very thin
ploves will result at the Mechanics
Pavilion, at which about 10000
people will pay 81.
They have worked the advertise

line. After eight days of headwind We
heard the boatswain's long, keen, re-
sounding whistle. 1t meant that the
wind had changed, and the sails must
go up. There was in that pewter
whistle more music than in any harp
we have heard since. and when it fell
down again from the boatswain's lips
we re-eXamined it to see where all the
chirrup and glee of sound and shrill-
ness of blast could hide themselves.
Thus we sail on in life, and sometimes
into the teeth of a headwind, ard it is
tough navigation. Our whistle dang
ling TO our neck, seems of no use.
Everything is against us; but after a
while there is change in the moon,
and the wind that was adverse wheels
around in our favor Then we take up
our whistle, and, all hands on deck,
the sails rise, and the port looms up in
the distance. If at such time we
make more noise with our mouth than
we ought to, charge it not to us, but
charge it to the boatswain' 5 whistle.

WIT AND HUMOR.

They would Go Into the Smoking Cars.
The smoking ear OF the 4:37 train
from Norristown, on the Schuylkill
Valley line, Saturday afternoon, was
at the rear end of the train. A skinny
woman, whose abrupt ankles were
sharply defined through black alpaca
dress, got in at Conshohocken. She
glanced at the smokers around her for
two minutes, grunted, and stuck her
head ont of the window.
Excuse me, madame, said the man
in the scat next to her, ''but this is the
smoking car. >
well, | thought it was a nasty
hole" snapped the angular woman,
and bounced out of the car.
A young matron, with three children
boarded the train at Spring Mill. She
had seated the youngest, a chubby boy
in blue and red frock. comfortably,
when she saw where she was. Then
she attempted to gather her flock about
her to flee across the rocking platforms.
But the chubby boy had gained a COM
handing though vanishing view of a
sorrel COW that was trying to keep up
with the train. He kicked first and
then bawled. Then he did both. FL
nally one of the pretty little brakemen
whose black moustaches are the chief
ornament of the Schuylkill Valley line,
abducted the chubby boy, and carried
him roaring into the OIL II car.
There was an evident disposition on
the part of woman in widows weeds,
who got in at West Laurel, to sit down
and cry her way into Broad street sta
ton. An expression of surprise and
disgust fitted across her pale face as
she stood moment at the door of the
car and glanced at the long rows of
complacent weed worshipers. Then
she fled, evidently startled out of her
grief.
The pretty young brakeman showed
away two young women from Belmont
who tried to board the smoker at Park
station, and, as the train passed Fifty
second street without fresh invasion
of femininity, said firmly: eff this here
company don't keep the smoker on the
front end of the train, or them there
women don't learn some sense, I'll go
on the canal"

Objections to the rype-wrlter.

The Christian Advocate tells this
story: A Presbyterian clergyman, who
had learned to write on the typewriter,
wrote to one of his parishioners who had
lost his wife. The man was indignant,
and would not speak to his pastor.
When a friend inquired the reason, he
said II always supposed he had some
heart; but when my wife died he sent
me a wretched circular, not having
enough interest to write something
specially adapted to my case. | want
nothing to do with man who is as

story will do to keep along side of
that of the Western store-keeper, who
received some typewriter correspond
ence from a wholesale firm with whom
he dealt. He returned the letter with
the assurance that he could read
writing. and the firm need not send
him any more printed stuff.

path. Wen, that is the name as
signed to it, but never did imagine
the existence of such a riding ladder,
and it may well be necessary to have
the peculiar race of mountain horses
found here for rider to get safely to
his journey end. Now the road lies
through rapid mountain streams where
the roaring waterfall may in an instant
sweep man and beast into yawning
abyss below, and now across a preci-
pice, where the lake divides the noun
tains, and death turks yard to your
left. Again across the steepest slopes,
where nature appears to have amused
herself by tossing masses of Jagged,
lettering rocks in heaps, and where no
ordinary horses hoof would find safe
hold. But if you only watch these
brave and sagacious little animals, how
carefully they consider the slightest
movement and measure the smallest
step, they viii inspire you with the
greatest confidence, and you will con
tinue your Journey on their back with
out the slightest fear, along the widest
path, on the edge of the most aWe-in-

these excellent cobs stumble. which
happened once or twice during our
ride, it is only on comparatively safe
ground, where probably the horse does
not consider much attention is required.
We now climb still higher; gradually
the sound of cow-bells and the soft
melodies from the Lur (the Morse al
penhOrn) are waited into space, and in
return, sharp, chilly gust of wind
called Fieldsno sweeps along the valley
slopes, carrying with it the last sOuve-
mir of society and civilization. We
have long ago left the populated dis
