The Candidate.

Candidates can be picked out easily.
Just observe the man who keeps his
mug distorted by manufactured smiles
and is ready to shake hands with
ANYBODY he meets and anxiously asks,
"How are all with your" That man
is a candidate. After the election he
will not know the acquaintance of
to-day. If he is defeated he will
have no words with which to curse
those acquaintance.

A HAPPY CANDIDATE

Fixes His Fences and Runs Up His
Flag-An Uneasy Rival Talks "Busi.
ness" and the "Happy Candidate -
Takes Down the Flag.
A little bird few into the TIMES
sanctum yesterday and at once told
of an Alturas county man who began
to lay his wires for a fat office. Be
ginning with a flourish he caused
much uneasiness among others who
aspired to the same place. This uneasi
ness grew to such extent that one
of the aspirants sought the man who
was "fourishing" his chances and at
once talked business. His PROPOSE
ton was, so much cash and a promise
to give him good deputyship for his
silence. The proposition was accept
ed and the "Aourishing" man walked
off singing:
"You may sing of your dog your bottom dog,
Or of any dog that you please;
believe in the dog, the nice old dog,
That knowingly takes his ease.
And wagging his tail outside the ring,
Keeping always his bone in sight,
Cares not pin in his sound old head
Fer either dog in the fight"

Republicans Harmonious.

One of the promising signs of sue
cess is the perfect harmony existing
among the Republican voters of AL
turas. There are several candidates
for each Office, but there is no bad
blood or feeling on the part of any
one against the other. After friend
ly contest for the nominations, it now
seems likely that each disappointed
candidate will "pull off his coat and
roll up his sleeves to work for the
nominee. This is right and sensible
All are free to try to secure nomin-
alton, but it is bad party tactics tc
sulk because one is defeated.

| HAMMEEBURG, n. j., Oct. 28.-EdWard
Vough and James Pitney are brothers-in-
| law and live in the same house, just on
the outskirts Of the town. A little over
year ago Pitucy'S wife, who WAS
Vough's sister, died, and for q time lit
ncy mourEcd her loss. 1t was almost
month after his Wife's death that Mrs.
! Lily Henderson. of Albany. N. Y, arrv-
ed here. Her visit was Il lengthy one
and when she returned to Ter home she
took with her the love Of both Pit
uey and NOu@h. MIS-. Henderson IS Il
widow, very pretty ana we'll educated
While on her visit she received a pro.
poSal from Fiinry. whom she refused.
Her refusal ;tngcrcd i'itncy, aud he called
her tickle and said she was u coGuette.
Eough objected to her being called names,
and his Oh lection resulted in II quarrel
between the two men. This quarrel was
frequently renewed, and, in fa@,, every
time they mentioned her I&.Ule an angr
dispute resulted.
Yesterday they were both cutting corr
in field in the rear Of their home, when,
as usual, they began TO quarrel about the
woman. Fough became SO angry that
he challenged Pitncy TO fight and 10
settle the atterforcvcr Pitney agreed,
and suggested that they fight it out just
as they were with their corn-cutterS
as weapons. Nough consented and
in moment they were siashing each
other with the cutters. For fully five
minutes they cut and lodged until Vougl:
fell to the ground exhausted, while the
blood flowed from a dozen wounds about
his face and body. Pitney made no effort
to assist him, but walked into the house
to attend TO his own wounds.
Half an hour later John Giraffe. 3
neighbor, called, and when he saw
Vough's condition he asked Pitnev what
the trouble was, and the latter only re.
Piled: "Only little trouble over that
woman Henderson"
The neghbor Immediately summoned
physician and constable. The latter
arrested Pitney and lodged him in the
county Jail, where he is held to await
the result OF his victims injuries. The
physician who examined Vough SAID
there was no possible hope for his re-
covery. Pitney treats the matter lightly.
and justities himself by saying that
Vough provoked him to the fight.

trifle over a year ago Parsons, who is u
young man about twenty years
old, good.looking and blessed with
plenty of money, came to this town from
the West. He opened q shoe store and
made more money than all the other
stores combined. Naturally he was much
sought after by mothers having mar
riageable daughters. 1t is said many
of the daughters soon fell deeply
in love with the handsome
and prosperous merchant. Only
two, however, seemed 10 have any place
in his affections. These were Miss Ellen
Pritchard and Miss Carrie Thompson.
Both are pretty and both well off Ellen
was twenty last January, and Carrie the
same age in February. Both, it is said,
were deeply in love with Parsons. Two
months ago Parsons married Ellen and
went 10 housekeeping.
1t was not long before she learned that
while she was looking after her domestic
duties Carrie was being entertained in
the store by Edward. She is proud
little woman, and refrained from telin.
her husband of her discovery.
Tuesday evening a ball was given in
the Delaware Hotel, and Parsons aud
his wife were among those present. So
was Miss Carrie. During the evening.
while Parsons and Miss Carrie were
waltzing, Parsons wife gave way to hel
feelings to such an extent that she tricG

quickly that no one had chance to IN.
