BoULANGER's STORY.
LONDON, April 26.-Boulauger's
friends now father the story that
Boulanger learned that the French
government had plotted to assassin
ate him. They say Boulanger is re-
sponsible for the details. The plot
was that he was to be arrested by the
Paris police, and under pretense of
conducting him to prison he was to be
led where some ruffians, who had am
bushed, were to pretend to rescue
him. The police were to pretend to
repel the assault, but really were to
shoot him, as if by mistake. Had this
failed he was to have been sentenced
to death by one sided court martial,
and executed forty-eight hours later;
accordingly he fed from France.
UNION PACIFIC BRANCH LINES.
Boston, April 26.-The directors of
the Union Pacific in their report, say
as the government does not allow the
Union Pacific to cons truct any
branches, a number of these lines
have been constructed by separate
companies which the Union Pacific
road controls. These companies num-
Der fifty-eight. and are very cumber-
some. The directors therefore rec
ommend that the Oregon Short Line,
Utah and Northern. Utah Central,
Salt Lake and Western, Utah and
Nevada; Ogden and Syracuse be
merged into one.
SLEEPING CAR INTERESTS UNITED.
New YORK, April 26.-The Star

enormous concern as the outcome of

which has been granted until May 20

ance with the decree rendered in
favor of the Pullman Palace car COM
pany by Pullman, against the Wagner

SIR JULIAN PAUNCEFORTH.
New YORK, April, 26.-In an in
terview Sir Julian Pauncefote says:
Il shall not venture to give any
opinions on political subjects. My
position in the foreign office at home
made me familiar with the details of
the fisheries treaty and extradition
treaty. I cannot say whether another
commission will be sent to consider
either. The fisheries dispute is prob
able the most serious, but 1 am here
with the most pacific intentions, and
bear with me the cordial good will of
her Majesty's government. We have
only the kindest feeling tow ard
America, and 1 am confident 1 shall
find it reciprocated."

case for him, and Mrs. Maybrick unfor
tunately came first.
Such a disposition is not consistent with
any Office of trust, but'men are only men,
and it is a well-known fact that those
things do exist in high offices of trust as
much or more than in lower offices. Mrs
Maybrick's life has been consigned to
prison to safe the vengeance of Judge
Stephens. Let all who applaud him do so
now That she is SHINING woman no one
denies; she herself has confessed 1t. The
Queens representative has nothing to do
with that offense. a higher judge Will
mete out her punishment. Let Justice
Stephens and all who are one with him look
to themselves and leave matters above
them to Judge above them. From the be-
ginning to the end of the case one thing has
been proven as clear and as bright as the
midday sun to all iusticeloving people-the
English government has no more claim on
Mrs. Maybrick than it has on the millions
of its own people who say so. At the risk
of being called quite the reverse of what
"Jingo'' assumes TO be in point of morality,
offer this epistle to your pleasure. Believe
me, an immense majority of the English
people think her innocent of murder. Berry,
the executioner, refused to do their bid
ding if the sentence should be carried ont,
saying they might hang him first. Others,
few, were eager to lay hands upon the
fair throat and rob her of life. To the
glory of Englishmen be it said the majority
proved themselves men. Hoping at an early
day TO see Mrs. MaybricS set at liberty, l

that justice must be done The only wonder
is that 80 few were called for. We are Ger

HE MISSED. Our esteemed contemporary
down the avenue didn't like the way we
showed him up last week, and on Monday he
borrowed revolver from Sam Adams as
long as his leg and lay in ambush for us at
the corner Of Apache and Cactus avenues.
As we appeared, on our way to the postoffice,
he opened fire, and six shots were fired at us
at distance Of no more than ten feet Not
one of them came within foot of us, but the
shooter did manage to wound a $500 mule
belonging to Lew Baker, and to kill $50
dog belonging to Judge Stoker. When he
was through shooting we knocked him down
and hammered him until he hollered. We
understand that he has settled with the Others
for $50 and that he thinks of leaving town
He'd better. If he ever had any standing

The Kicker.

Dost love man who always kicks, no matter
what you dc,
Who kicks with most prodigious ease the whole
long season through,
Who kicks if anything goes wrong and kicks if all
goes right,
Who kicks because he likes to kick, and kicks
with all his nights
We know some awful kickers on this wicked mum
dane sphere,
Who came on earth by accident and kick because
they're here.
They make themselves uncomfortable and other
people sick,
they drive their friends to suicide and still they
always kick.
Ne know a man who kicks and kicks the blessed
live-long 1-y.
And if there's naught to kick about he's kicking
anyway.
Al times when things are going right and other
men would smile
He kicks on general principles, and kicketh all
the while.
