There were number Of us in one of

Of the row tho big man was saying:
"You Yankees is great Oh the brag,

The big fellow had pushed up his

big enough to eat up two such men as

Mr.. d. L. Slattery left this city in De
cember last with the intention of visiting
the Central American states, and after
spending few weeks in the city of San
Francisco, took his departure on an ocean
steamer for Nicaragua. He left San
Francisco on the 18th of February, and
ten days were occupied in the journey
down the coast. When he arrived at San
Salvador the passengers were transferred
to the transfer steamer Clyde. The first
landing place was on the island known as
Tiger island, the port beng Amapalpa.
From here they took passage to San Sal
vador This city is thirty-three miles
from Guatemala. Mr.. Slattery spent
about thirty days travelling in the in
terror of the count try, investigating the
resources and studying the habits of the
natives. His account of the country as
a place for investment is not of the most
flattering character, and leads to the con-
clusion that the United States is about
as good place to make money as can be
discovered beneath foreign sun.
He related many amusing incidents OF
the voyage, together with the singular
character of the natives. A number OF
the passengers upon landing were par
]
ticularly anxious to indulge in at least
one square meal before returning to the
land of their birth, and sought res
taurant for that particular purpose and
gave the order for the best that the mar

of the peal, asked the price OF the edibles

Last week Judge Sturdevant, presid-
ing over the superior court of Whitman
county, rendered a decision Of import
ance, affecting the science of law i'll this
state. It was touching the case of james
Shaw, tried here in the June term last
year for cattle stealing. The jury be-
ing unable to agree, after an all-night
deliberation, was discharged by Judge
Langford. Judge Sturdevant held that
simply inability on the part of the jury
to agree on verdict was not sufficient
cause for the discharge Of such jury;
and further that under the constitution
of the state the defendant could not be
again placed in jeopardy, or that he
could not again be brought to trial upon
the same charge. Prosecuting Attorney
Plattor, immediately appealed from this
decision to the supreme court, holding
that being placed in jeopardy twice and
being brought to trial twice are different
things. The question called out pro-
tracted discussion by the council for the
defense and the prosecution respectively.
The case is one which has attracted
much attention in the courts here, and
the decision of the supreme court as to
whether the defendant can be tried again
on this charge or not, will be awaited
with interest.
