Accidentally Drowned.


Our city was stirred up consdera-
bly, on Monday morning by the an
nouneement that man had been
found dead in Jacobs ditch. 1t APP
pears that man named Ed. Bur
roughs, while passing up Grove street,
noticed the body Of some one in one
oil the wheels Of the ditch. He called
assistance, and after time managed
TO get the body out. 1t was taken tc
the Green Meadow barn, where an in.
quest was Immediately held by Coro-
ner Randall. The inquest ascertain
ed that the name Of the drowned man
was Thos. Mccormack. He was OF
Irish descent and about forty years
old. He was greatly addicted to
drinking, was often found drunk
about town, and it is supposed that
while in an intoxicated condition he
wandered too near the ditch, fell in
and was drowned. The body gave
evidence of having been in the water
some time. The verdict of the jury
was accidental drowning.

WITT1CIsMs OF LAWYERS.
Amusing Incidents and Sharp Retorts
in the Courts

From the Mem York Press.
In looking over the lists of legal facetia,
one is naturally impressed by the mania
bility of many of the jests. Lawyers are
intellectual gladiators, using their tongues
as soldiers use their swords Most Of their
time, when engaged in their legal battles, is
occupied in an eHdeaVor to vanqush an
adversary or get the better of a witness,
and this constant warfare is apt to give an
almost pitiless asperity to their language.
The lawyer who in a closely contested legal
controversy will undertake to 'perplex by
satire, battle by ridicule or silence by sar-
casmn any one who will oppose him will in
his own home be unusually genial and mild
of speech.
1t is noticeable that the witticisms at
tributei to the LAWYERS of the present day
are not so frequently character zed by the
spirit Of i'll will aud malignity as are those
charged 10 some Of the lawyers Of a cen
fury or so ago, many Of which, indeed, are
almost brutal. For instance, il is recorded
Of Charles York that after bis election TO
serve as q member Of the University Of
Cambridge he made round of calls on
members Of the Senate such being the GUS
TOM to return thanks for their votes, and
that on coming to a supporter-an old "fel-
low" known as the ughest man in Cam
bridge-he addressed him in this fashion:
"Sir, have reason to be thankful 10 my
friends in general, but / confess myself
under peculiar obligations TO you for the
very remarkable coun enance you have
shown me on this occasion"
An anecdote is told Of Sir John Fortescue-
Aland and counsel Sir John was dis
figured by a nose which was not only large,
but hideously misshapen by morbid growth.
Having checked counsel who was arguing
before him with the unnecessarily harsh 90
servation, Brother, brother, you are hand
ling the case in a very lame manner the
angry advocate gave vent TO his indigna-
ton by saying, with perfect appearance
of sang froid, Pardon me, nv lord, have
patience with me, and will do nay best to

man who writes war articles winters and
sells garden seeds in the spring. The por-
trait OF this watermelon would tempt most
any man to climb a nine rail fence in the
dead of night and forget all else in order to
drown his better nature and his nose in its
cool bosom. People came for miles to look
at the picture of this melon and went away
with pleasant taste in their mouth.
The plants were little sluggish, though
planted in hills far apart each way in a
rich warm loan, enriched by everything

cannot gather nice fresh figs of thistles, or
expect much of scotsman whose plants

Dawes add Squaws.
From the Missouri Rep,lblfoam.


az notice in the Republican of the 18th
that Senator Dawess bill in relation to
white men marrying Indian women has
passed the Senate. 1t appears very strange,
also suppremely ridiculous to one living
herA in the Indian country, to see a lot of
men who ought TO be posted in the affairs
of this country, trying to make a law as
Insignificant and uncalled for by both the
Indians welfare and tho con- .:on good of
the people Of the United States as the one
advocated by Mr.. Dawes's bill
"What good can he hope to accomplish
by such law! 1t is certain that no good
can result to the Indians from such law,
because the whole Indian country is directly
indebted to the white man for what progress
has been made toward civilization and
principal to the white men who have
married Indian women. As to white men
marrying 'Squaws' simply for right here
in the country, and the statement that such
rights are worth S., 900, it is all bosh.
NIf Senator Dawes will take the trouble
to post himself upon the laws in force in
this Indian country he will find that white
men do not acquire any right to Indian
moneys or land by marrying 'squaws
They are simply accorded the privilege to
live here and use the lands for the benefit of
their families, which they usually do to the
satisfaction of all concerned. If Senator
ldWeS WAuDS 10 % SOIIleUDlUR 10 DeHe0J uQe
Indians, | would suggest that he go to
work on law to restrict the rights of the
negro in the Indian country; there is
plenty room and demand for legislation
in tn { direction, and especially in this, the
Creek Nation.
"The Indians do not need or ask for any
protection from the United States in their
marriage relations with white man.
"Senator Dawes's bill reminds me of a
little occurrence which took place some
years ago in one of the border towns of
Texas. There was full blood Indian who
came in on the stage and was met at the
hotel by Col. Sutton, who was quite a
prominent man there Col. Sutton said to
the Indian, in the way of opening up CON
versation; English you speak 'emF The
Indian replied Yes, old man, a d.
sight better than you can, if that is the best
70 can do So it with Senator Dawess
bill. The Indian knows better how 70
handle this marrying business than you do,
old man, if that bill is the best you can do
for the Indians"

1t Wasn't So Yesterday,

At the republican Senatorial con-
vention for this d'ssrict, Mr.. Ball,
in pia.;ng Mr.. West before the con-
reniion for the nomination, raid
: y If Nr. W. r..~< nominated he
wotiid pat money into the cam-
l,.i+e; i.e bad mDi.ey aud would
spend II far i:e uarty" Mr. Balls
spe n is said to have been eio~
quent, bat the convention preferred
another rich man.
The Advan e Herald said in its
issue of the 9th;
"The tax of Buncombe county,
not including fees for collecting,
amounts to about Sc, 100000. Surely
Buncombe pays her part"
A conscientious journal gravely
states that the tax of Buncombe is
six million, two hundred thousand
dollars. 1t is with such statements
as these the people are expected to
be fooled into voting the republican
ticket, and it is about as near the
truth as the average republican pa
per can get.
