Emin Comes Back at Stanley.

BERLIN, April 15.-The National Zeitune
published communication indirectly from
Emin Pasha in which he seeks to rectify
the statements recently made concerning
him by Stanley. It says that when Emin
left the equatorial province with Stanley he
was accompanied by few soldiers only,
but this was because the period of 20 days
fixed by Stanley as the time for leaving the
province was too brief to allow men to be
re-enlisted, and that the defile remained in
the hands of the Egyptians when Emin
left. Stanley brought Emin only twenty
boxes of ammunition when Emin at that
time had in his possession 100 boxes.

There's only one way of handling 'em
rightly. Let me take the trap
The boy surrendered it with a very bad
grace, and the fat man handed his cane to
some one and held the trap high over the
street. There were six or seven dogs when
the spring door was opened, and the rat
didn't like the looks of things. He ran
down to the door, made spring and a twist,
and for about two seconds was seen on top
of the trap. Then he jumped to the fat
mans right shoulder. As he did SO there
the dogs rushed forward, and the next in
slant dogs, fat man, and rat were all in a
heap in the gutter. One dog got the rat,
and the others began free fight, and as
they circled away from the spot the fat man
got up, holding ruined silk hat in his
hand. He was in hurry to go, but before
he could leave boy counted four dog bites

looked about, but cane and holder had gone.

Sabin. whose death occurred recently IN
San Francisco was once resident OF

Of our citizens. He was man OF great
ability in the legal profession; but his
extreme modesty, prevented the
existence Of that ability from becoming
known, in the earlier years of his practice,
except to those lwho learned it through
business contact with him. After his
appointment to the bench, his judicial
work being of very important and
public nature, its great excellence was
Immediately recognized, and during the
wears of his continuance in office his
opinions were of such character as to
learning and ability that they commanded
the respect of the members OF the bench
and bar Throughout the United States
He served With distinction in the Union
Army during the war of the Rebellion.
In manner Judge Sabin had modesty
which to strangers seemed almost hauteur
but he was in reality one of the most
frank, genial, and cordial of men, -one
whose acquaintance was to be sought
because of his simple high-mindedness,
loved for his gentleness and long remem
bered for his honorable dealings.
