only divide the net receipts, deducting
all expenses of the game Were the
Ogden boys to 90 to Salt Lake, their ex,

In the Police Court .

Seven tramps were brought up in the
police court yesterday charged with
vagrancy. They each plead guilty to
the charge and were given twelve days
to atone for their indiscretions.
One Of the boys. Philip Briody by
name, had dozen or so breastpins on
his person which he claims to have re-
ceived by Wells. Fargo & Co. Express.
Just where he did get the goods Is
doubtful. The pins are all cheap.

The Intimidation aud Contempt

New ORLEANS, La, April 15.-The
business before the special session of
the United States Circuit Court at
Jefferson, Tex, was completed by
Judge Pardee yesterday. The con-
temp and intimidation cases were
disposed of speedily. The parties
who came to Jefferson from New Or
leans and refused to work were con-
demned and sentenced-two of them
to the Galveston jail for four months
and four to the Marshal Jail for ten
days. Three bu'ldozing striking ne
groes from Longview were sentenced
to the Galveston Jail for forty days.

nails urging earnestly that any
tendency TO vicious sensationalism,
vulgarity and slang be checked and
removed. Good, strong words are
spoken in behalf of rigid adherence
to healthy literature and good morals.
There is evidently a reaction against
that beastly style Of journalism whose
chief opponents and upholders were
to be found in Chicago, Cincinnati
and among a certain class Of papers in
New York. The Chicago example has
lost its ruling spirit, and the Cincin-
natl specimen is daily becoming less
profitable. The New York offenders,
like the poor, will always be with us
certainly until New York City is
somewhat purified of its reckless and
goddess immortality. Elsewhere, how
ever, the day, in good truth, cannot
much longer be delayed when the
sensational, scandal-loving, prurient
newspaper will be tabooed in every
household and business establishment
in the land.

Why Jews I've SO Long.

The NeU England Medical Monthly
comments very favorably on the pro-
verbal long and healthful lives of the
Jews. DIR. Picard holds that this
superiority is due to their stringent
heal h laws. The Mosaic, like the
older Egyptian code, is very stringent
regarding he eating of flesh and other
articles of food. OF the animals ex-
amined, large proportion are always
condemned as unfit for food. People
who eat meat Unfortunately are
very prone to disorders of the blood
and OF the kidneys, for meat is com
posed of nitrogen, which the kidneys
have to remove from the blood, and,
of course, they cannot do this success
fully except by the aid Of Warmers
safe cure, the best kidney strengthened,
unless It's temperately partaken ofand
only the very best meat is used. Jews
also use alcoholic liquors very spar
ingly and thus keep up good diges-
ton, and then again they are holiday
loving and misunderstanding class

A BANKERS LOVE FOR CATS.
His VIII Contested ON the Ground
Of an UnsOund Mind.

BALTIMORE, Aoril 10-The contest
over the will of Gustavus Nicholson,
the banker, hes brought to light some
of the old gentleman's queer charsc-
terisiics. The will hequeathed the
entire estate, valued at $4,000 to
Isaac L. Nicholson, and the nieces
and nephews who are not on the list
are making the contest. Nicholson
had a hobby for making wills, aud
made over a dozen in the course OF
few year,. 1t WAS stated by servants
of the old banker that he lived in a
little back room Of his fine residence
on Harrison street. His love for cats
was the most peculiar of all his Cccen-
tricities. He kept a regular asylum
for cats, he had over a dozen of hie
own Tables, and these were permitted
to invite their friends, so that hosts of
cats were entertained at the bankers
home. He took cats to bed with him,
and sometimes a matronly cat would
provide a nest in his comfortable
feather bed, and there a litter of
kittens would be born and raised.
At one time he had six Maltese cats
living with him in his room. These
were his favorites. The ordinary cats
were kept in the kitchen. All the
cats would run 10 him and purr when
ne entered the house, and he would
sit or lie with them playing all over
him. The counsel for the contestants,
in his presentation OF the case, stated
that the death of Columbus NiChol-
SOD, brother of Gustsvus, and the
fact that there had been for some time
difficulty between them, seemed to
weigh upon the mind Of Gustavus, aud
though genial gentleman he became
addicted to drink, and lived in the
room of the big house alone with his
cats. Counsel for the executors claim
that, while ne was little eccentric, in
all business matters he showed clear
and excellent Judgment.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, April ia special
dispatch from Eastland, Tex, says:
A triangular duel on horseback took
place near here yesterday, in which
one man was killed and two others
seriously wounded, one of whom will
die. The scene was the open prairie,
about a mile south of town. John
Ellison and w. G. Hardin had been
litigating over some land. They had
been in attendance at court all day,
and late in the afternoon mounted
their horses and started for home.
Some talk was engaged in, which re-
SUI ted in a pitched battle between
John and Tom Ellison on the one
hand and w. G. Hardin on the other.
No one in the affair escaped unhurt.
Tom Ellison was the first to fall, shot
through the breast by a bullet from
Hardins pistol. He expired in a few
minutes. About twenty shots were
fred. John Ellison and Hardin per-
forated each other with bullets
Hardin cannot live and John Ellison
is seriously wounded. The par leu
lars of the quarrel cannot be ascer
tanned as no eye.witnesses were pres

No Drummers' Tax at shannon,
Miss
CORRESPONDENCE OF THE APPEAL.I

SHANNON, Miss, April l5.-The
Mayor and Board of Aldermen in the
town of Shannon agreed last night not
to impose a tax on the festive drum
mer. We all regard this as a thing of
the past, and think the Legislature of
Mississippi for 1886 was a farce, and
most of them or the party who intro
duced the bill imposing the tax on the
drummer must have been like Rip
Van Winkle-asleep for twenty years,
and suddenly awoke.
