How Mr.. O,Donhsll and His wife Kept
an Eviction Posse at Bay.

nm Eviction Posse at Bay.
CHICAGO, October 1O.-Ihere was quite 2
bit ii excitement to-day in the vicinity q
Eighteenth and Grove streets, when
Dannty Sheriff LeibraDt and q half dozen
assistants attempted to evict William
IO,Donnell and hisfamily from their shanty
ON the railroad tracks. The house il not
much larger than o large ice-chest, and II 10
not worth more than $25 probably. The
lot, however, is valuable because Of its'io'
cation. It has been condemned by due
process OF law and bought by the Santa
Re railroad for $4,000. The O'Donnells
have not received this money, however, ow
ing to the claim of q Mr.Cruikshank, and
The 81. 600 is held in the vault OF thecounty
treasurer.
When the Sheriff's posse got to the house
this morning they found the head OF the
family waiting for them with q 44-calIber
revolver in each hand.
"Den't YOU come in or I'll blow your
brains out shouted William, as the depu-
ties attempted to enter. 1.-THE first ma
that crosses my threshold will get a a in
his body" :.

another" cried Mrs. O'Donnell, swho stood
near the window surrounded by half a
dozen guns Of assorted sizes.
Various tricks were resorted to, but
| without success. Not even with the help
Of the police could an entrance be effected,
and after an hours parley the officers
drew off their forces to go to dinner. One
shot was fired by O'Donnell at a deputy
who tried to sneak in the back way. The
bullet whizzed past his ear and he rapidly
mede himself scarce.
"Give US our money for our home and
we'll get out, not before" shouted William,
defantly.
"Yes. we'll do that same, though God
knows I'll never forget my old home" said
Mrs. O'Donnell. Twenty years ago l was
married in that shanty, and I had lived
there ten years before then. It's money or
fight. Look to the guns, William, for the
dirty spalpeens will be here again soon."
William still holds the fort.

COURT HOUSE POETRY.

He sat upon the court house stairs
And groaned as if his heart woulc break
His mind was turned from other cares;
Tom Rutsell had the stomach-ache.
The many men who passed him by,
Looked sympathetic for his sake;
And when one asked the reason why, &
Twas said that Tom had stomach-ache
In vain Booth begged to cure Toms ills,
Aud Clark told him just what to take.
But Tom groaned, "Oh, to sheol with pills!'
And yet he had the stomach-ache.
Nichols and Themes and Sproule and Cook
Laughed Just as if it was a fake;
But Rutsell killed them with a look,
And groaned: "Good Lawd, my stom.
ach-ache!"
There came a stranger by and by,
Whose meaning smile none could mistake
He handed Tom q flask OF rye;
Well, what became of Thomas ache?

First Lessons Given on the Blotter at
Police Headquarters.

First Lessons Given on the Blotter a,
Police Headquarters.
A man who is closely enough identified
with the police department to be permitted
to make arrests has begun the herculean
task Of teaching phonetic spelling and
labor saving abbreviation to the men who
are ION the police force now" He has
chosen the police court record of arrests as
the q Id in which to exhibit his systems in
their most attractive and forcible form.
For instance, he arrested q man named
John Carroll Wednesday night and booked
him as "a rested for salt and batter on
Salley Dow" Unfortunately the record
stops there, for apart from the lesson
taught by the entry there exists a great
deal OF interest as to what kind OF eating
Salley made after she had been covered
with ''salt and batter by the gourmet
who was "a rested" fer this slight evidence
Of cannibalistic tendency. Mr.. Carroll
has not been given q chance to tell how he
proposed to cook his female friend.

r. Campana, whose license for q saloon
on East Park street was revoked by the
city council last Wednesday night, because
the place is said to be disorderly, does not
propose to submit tamely to the councils
ruling. He called on the city attorney yes

all the while under the impression that
Mr.. Corbett alone was responsible for the
councils s.ction. When he took his depar-
ture he announced that he should keep

fiance OF the authorities. Unless his cour-
age oozes out at his fingers ends he will be

Funny Business Going On.

We understand that the official registry
check list of voters at Smiths ranch, Little
Rock mountains, together with the tally
sheet to be used at that precinct, were
found on the prairie, near the track OF the
Manitoba railway, between Exeter and
Malta. The package had been apparently
broken open and the package thrown away.
It WAS well known and conceded that
Smiths ranch would cast between 35 and
81 straight Democratic votes. Four sets
iofpoll books were at different times sent
to this precinct, and not n reached there.
There is room for investigation here. There
has evidently been some funny business 60

GRANT AT DONELSON.

How He Escaped From Being Assasslnated
by a Crazy Confederate.
On the morning of the surrender of
the Confederate troops at Fort Donel-
son. Federal staff officer approached
the works occupied by Baldwin's Brig
ade, of Buckner's Division, and in
quired for the headquarters of the
brigade commander. He was shown
to the quarters OF Colonel John c.
Brown. Third Tennessee Infantry. who
was temporarily in command of the
brigade. Upon meeting Colonel Brown
the Federal officer announced that he
had been sent forward by General o.
S. Grant, commanding United States
forces, to learn the location of the
brigade headquarters, and that he
would return and inform the Federal
commander. The officer then rode
back to the line of works. and meeting
General Grant and staff conducted them
to the tent of Colonel Brown
Colonel Brown, allow me TO intro
duce General Grant, commander of our
forces"
Colonel Brown acknowledged the in
PRODUCTION by polite though formal
bow.
Colonel Brown it gives me pleasure
to take by the hand an officer who has
made such brave Defense" and re-
moving his hat, the Federal commander
leaned from his horse and extended his
hand, which Colonel Brown accepted
with that grace and dignity which, with
his gallant bearing on the field, so dis
tinguished him afterward as Major
General.
After few minutes the party passed
on toward the village of Dover, the
Confederate headquarters. leaving
Colonel Brown standing before his tent.
AS he turned to enter he saw, approach
ing from the direction of the fort, a
Confederate Lieutenant mounted on a
splendid horse and riding at break-neck
speed, his hat drawn tightly down and
full-sized navy-six particularly notice
able in his right hand. An instant
more and Colonel Brown had seized the
mad-man's bride with: Where are
you going, sir?" ITO shoot that Yam
kee officer; now loose my bride or I'll
shoot you!" And the man raised his
pistol while he foamed with rage.
I'VE have surrendered. sir, and"
''Loose my bridle!"
81 will not. sir-you shall not do"
Colonel Brown, for the third and
last time, | tell you. loose my rein"
drop that pistol, "and the man, thrown
off his guard by qiuck movement of
his horse, found himself covered by the
pistol which Colonel Brown had sud-
denly drawn.
A moment of hesitation and the lieu
tenants pistol fell upon the ground.
Now, dismount," and with one look
that satisfied him of the firm purpose
in the eyes which cleaned behind the
leveled pistol in the hand OF Brown the
man who would have killed Grant was

Two Yankee Soldiers Mistake q Peal or
Thunder for = Picket Attack.
The Twenty-seventh Massachusetts
regiment was in camp at Bachelors
Greek. North Carolina, near the edge
of wooded marsh out of which came
the fragrance of magnolia blossoms
and the music of numberless mocking-
birds Here the men foraged more or
less upon the guerilla farmers" in the
neighborhood The regimental histo-
rian enlivens his pages with the story of
one such occasion
just beyond our outposts was fam
lily named Davis, who were always will
ing to furnish refreshments for con-
sideration; and one day when Lieuten-
ant Hunt was in charge of the outposts.
he placed Sergeant Peck on picket
very near the Davis plantation
The sergeant was very considerate OF
the wants of the inner man. and when
Lieutenant Hunt returned to this part
of the line, he found that Peck had been
to Davis house. and ordered what he
called stomach distender" for two.
Sergeant Peck's appetite and liber-
ality got the better of any scruples he
might naturally have felt about making
known his neglect of duty, and he in
vited the Lietenant to the feast-an in
vitation that was promptly accepted.
The two men were eating with the
best Of appetites when they heard a
sudden roar and rattle. as of heavy
guns and musketry. The enemy was
upon them Instantly they seized their
arms and equipments, which had been
laid aside for the occasion, and rushed
unceremoniously out of the door.
Waiting for nothing. they cleared the
fence. expecting every moment another
vOlley, or a demand to surrender. On
reaching the post, in any thing but good
order, they were hailed by one OF the
pickets:
'.Hullo. there! What's your hurry?
Why didn't you stay till after the
showerY'
Sure enough. while they had been
busy at the table a sudden thunder
cloud had come up. and what they had
mistaken for an attack of the enemy was
only peal of thunder.
The two soldiers were often reminded
of their famous dinner, and ''old man
Davis never tired of referring to ''the
attack on the picket. Youths Com
