The Greenwood Case.

One Of the most interesting cases
yet brought before Judge Pollard at
this term OF court, was the cattle
stealing case in which Louis Green
wood was found guilty by the jury,
who were absent from the jury box
about ten minutes. Greenwood, it
seems, has since last June been en-
gagged in shooting cattle on the range,
burying their hides and disposing OF
the meat to parties at Livingston At
first he carried on the nefarious busi-
ness by himself, but upon being dis
covered by a neighbor named Mont
gomery, who lived about one-half
mile away, h took Montgomery into
partnership, and for while did a
lucrative business. Cattle would be
shot down, OF else wounded and killed
afterwards, skinned where they fell,
ofttimes after night, and the meat.
covered with hay, would be hauled to
Livingston. Greenwood, according
to the testimony, had an especial dis
like for Dave Rankin, and it was from
his herd that most Of the stock was
taken 0. ?. Templeton, deputy
sheriff at Livingston, was first made
aware Of Greenwood's actions in Sep
tember. Some time thereafter, he
captured the prisoner in the act of
disposiug of meat. Greenwood was
jailed. and his confederate, Montgom-
cry, arrested. Hides were fouud
secreted in the garden, hen house and
elsewhere A quarter of the meat in
Greenwood's cabin, compared with
that which he had just sold, and the
bullet holes traced from one to the
other. The chain of evidence was SO
strong that Montgomery made a clean
breast of his connection with Green
wood. Upon this the lower court
placed Greenwood under bonds to
await the action Of the grand jury,
which promptly indicted him,-Cron
icle.

Won BuIow's Latest Eccentricity.

II the stories told of him are true,
Hans Won Bulow is getting crankler
day by day. 1t is related that during
his last concert tour, as he was about
to take his seat at the piano, he saw
some very plain women seated near
the platform. At that he walked OFF
the Stage, and to his manager slnqulr-
les and entreaties said:
until those ugly women are re-
moved, will not play note; SO you
may do as you please about it."
The managers stepped up on the
stage, announced that Herr Won Bulow
had become suddenly indisposed, and
the orchestra would play symphony
which was to have been played later
in the evening. While the audience
looked on in wonder, he had number
of palms and shrubs from the conser-
vatory near the concert room placed
between the platform and the audience.
Then calling Bulow to the wing, the
manager asked him if the view suited
him. "Oh, yes, that's all right, " quiet
ly said the great musician, ''as long as
I don't behold those monsters of ugli-
ness I am quite Indifferent to my sur
roundings." And without any more
ado, the capricious composer went on
the platform to perform his share of
the programme.

A Very Rare Delicacy.
[From the Rome fGal Conrier /

From the Rome (Ga.) Courier.]
A party who had been out hunting
Friday brought in large fine hawk as
a trophy of his expedition, and carried
it to Cox & Huffaker's butcher shop,
where he hungi tup. Shortly after the
hawk was put before the admiring
gaze of the public, gentleman passed
by, looked at the hawk, fondly turned
it around, and remarked to Joe Cox:
''My wife is very fond of hawk gizza-d,
and I would like to buy the one from
this fellow from you" Cox didn't
think he could sell it, but after the
eloquent persuasion of the would-be
purchaser heconsented to do so. The
hawk was taken from the place where
it was suspended and tenderly laid up
on the block. Takingup a keen butch
er knife he dashed it into the bird with
the most approved flourish, and went
to work at the place where the gizzard
ought to be. After the bird had been
laid open Cox was rather surprised
that the gizzard did not come under
his observation. In fact, he was
dumbfounded, and if the gentle reader
wants fight on his hand let him ask
Joe Cox if hehas any hawk gizzard for
sale

FROM the Cn1cagS deraIQ.J
"It's funny" said O. conductor,
chow nervous a. man will sometimes
get when he is out of his element.
Most people who travel are anxious
about their tickets. Only the other
day was amused at a Chicago man
who was passenger on my train. He
is board of-trade operator, and they
say a bold one, too. Yet when I came
along and asked him for his ticket.
and he looked first in one pocket and
then another and couldn't find it, you
ought to have seen how excited he got.
His hand fairly trembled, and he was
so austered that he hardly knew what
he was about. The value of the ticket
which he had lost was less than a.
dollar, but he made himself positively
miserable over it. Yet take that man
in his element-the board of trade
and you couldn't stampede him an
inch. He'd meet a. loss of thousands
of dollars at one turn of the market
and not give it a second thought"

ONLY Half Alive.

There are hosts OF men and women who, to
coin phrase, are only half alive. That is to
say, they have seldom if ever any appetite, are
nervous, weak, idgetty and troubled by num-
berless small pains and aches. In the presence
OF vigorous, exuberant vitality they seem mere
quently dosing themselves, swallowing in the
course OF the year enough drugs to stock any
apothecarys shop of average dimensions. This,
OF course, defeats instead of furthering the end
IN view, viz, the recovery of health and vigor.
