when Thackeray was. in America he
dined one day with Mr. X, distinguished
literary man of this city, whose nose made
a good second TO Thsckeray's The ladies

There is very little, ifany, Improvement
in demand or price on any grade, and
really no encouragement for shippers
at present. The supply Of hogs was
very liberal for Thursday. The market
opened a full nickel lower than yester-

There came chap one day to set up a
drug store in our mining town, which had
taken boom and was attracting business.
This wasn't to be 'tregular" drug store,
but the drug part was an annex to q gro
Gerry and boot andshoe store The new ar
rival had just opened out when Tom Har-
rison, one of the men m my claim. was
taken one night with bilious collie. Ben
Wheeler, another Of our men, went to the
druggists to get remedy, but that indi-
vidual at once said to him:
II know mighty little about drugs, but
took this stock on debt, and thought
I'd better show 'em up. The drugs are an
adjunct"
Eyes, but Tom has had a bad case of
collie"
well, 1 might hit something. and I
might miss it, don't want to take the
chances If you do, go ahead"
81 don't feel fit, and meb5e I'd better 90
and ask Tom. If he'll run the chances
will"
He came back and stated the case Toms
collie was worse, and in his desperation he
exclaimed:
"Git sunthin-no matter what You
can't morn kill me, and 1 shall die any
howp'
Ben returned to the store and paved
around for spell. He couldn't read ex-
cept with great effort, but he came across
two bottles, the contents Of which rather
took his eye, and he filed a smaller one
with the mixture. When he was ready TO
give Tom dose he said:
Cant guarantee this, Tom. The Teller
says the drugs are only an adjunct, and
you know I'm no hand ct doctorin'."
'Tll chance it" replied Tom, and down
went the dose, and at midnight be was a
dead man.
The coroner got the story as have given
It. put jury on the case and had the par
ticulars retold, and when thsyhad nothing
more 70 learn he said
