so hard that it turned the edge Of the

and started to run, but was met just
as he was stepping on the sidewalk
by friend ofths young lady and he
was caught and held and suffered still
more severe punishment from the
whip in tho hands of the young lady.
Miss Garvin says her action was
caused by insulting words spoken by
Snydef, and that he has be,n circu

which tended to injure her reputation
and that just before he started to take
his leave last evening bespoke in an
ungentlemanly manner to her, which

the following concise statement of the
affair; "He insulted me SOL walked

The Rabbit Pest.

Rabbits appear to be as numerous and
destructive in the California valleys as
they are in Nevada, and an exchange
tells of novel and effective method cf
dealing with them in the San Joaquin
Valley. One of the settlers there had
occasion to be out in his alfalfa one night,
carrying lantern with him, and he found
that the rabbits seemed to be fascinated
by the illumination, and made no effort to
run away, but sat and stared until the
man almost stepped on them. Acting on
this and fastening light to the crown of
his hat, 50 as to give both hands free
action, he was enabled to shoot large
numbers of the pests at small expense.
