MAN AROUT TOWN.

There goes a man whom | caH a
harC-an humble one, it is tue.
bat a hero all the same. He is not
handsome man, By any means,
being rather sqnatty in figure and
somewhat incon grdous as to face.
Some years ago he was in afliuent
circumstances; he had plenty of
money, and, of course, plenty OF
friends. He was enjoying lie thor,
oughly an his sky was free OF
clouds. Suddenly the STERN came
down and in one moment, as II
were, ne was made dcsolate. His
wife died, his home was broken up,
and his riches took wings to them
selves and flew away. Poverty
stared him in the face, he was
homeless, apparently friendess and
a'one. But he had one talent that
God had given him, A talent that
had been a pastime-th~ plnvthing
OF idle hours but it stood him in
good stead now. Brayely and unr
compl~inirgly he took up the bur
den Of life. Not murmnr passes
his lips. Over little oil stove he
cooks his daily food. lie wears
the cheapest Of clothing and has but
few pleasures, but he has kindly
word for everybody and helping
hand tor those poorer than himself.
| call such a man hero, and per-
haps in the sunny days that are to
come, when time shall be 40 more,
he will be richer than many who
live III luxury now.

To-Morrow's Shooting Contest at Agri-
cultural Park.
At Agricultural Park, tomorrow after
noon, there will be fine display of shoot
ing skill, commencing promptly at
O'Clock. when the two great teams of ex-
pert rapshots that are now making tour
of the continent under the auspices of the
United States Cartridge Company, repre-
senting the East and West, respectively,
will shoot one of their scheduled matches.
These teams are composed of six men
each, besides one substitute. They started
from Cleveland, o., on the 17th of last
month, and have shot in all the larger cities
Of the Southwest and South, making thir-
teen matches in all. So far the Eastern
team has a slight advantage. TIE party
is travelling in the Pullman car, "Iolanthe,"
and its members have been living on 1.-The

All their regular matches are shot al
''inanimate targets" (dics made of clay),
and as there will be no blood spilled the
contest will be one that ladies may enjoy
None of the matches are shot on Sunday
The teams are composed of gentlemen,
many of them being business men of
means and prominence where they reside.
The shooting will be in the track, directly
in front of the grand stand, from whence
the exhibition can be seen by all who de-
sire seats. In all the larger cities elegant
and costly trophies have been shot for, and
the car in which the party travels looks
like well -stocked store of silverware, with
its tankards, cups. etc,

rive here tonight, but a private telegram
says they will arrive tomorrow forenoon.

A COUNTRY SENSATION.
Thomas j. Mealer Carved by Man
Named Donahue.

Thomas j. Mealer Carved by a Man
Named Donahue.
Constable Zimmerman of Elk Grove
came to the city last night having in
charge wild-eyed prisoner named Dona-
hue, whom he lodged in the County Jail
on a charge of assault with deadly
weapon. The officer was accompanied and
assisted by Thomas j. Mealer, of whom
Donahue had tried to make CORY corpse.
IT appears that both men were employed
by Mrs. Martin Dart to assist her in remov-
ing from her ranch on Friday evening.
Dunahue was taken suddenly i'll, and Mrs.
Dart prepared for him draught of some
kind. which he refused to drink, declaring
that it had been poisoned. He left his bed
and started to run away from the place, but
was captured by Mealer and others and
tied to a post. Donahue whipped out a
knife, cut the cords that bound him and
made for Mealer.
The latter ran for his life, but was over
taken BY Donahue, who cut him about the
head slightly. In struggle for the posses
sion of the weapon Mealer also had two OF
his fingers nearly severed.
Again Donahue got away and struck out
in the direction of Elk Grove, only a few
miles distans, but wandered about all night,
and was found yesterday morning within
half a mile of the place from which he
started. He was recaptured and taken to
Elk Grove, but it being legal holiday, he
could not be examined in the Justices
Court, hence he was brought here for safe
keeping until tomorrow, when he will be
taken back fer examination on the charge
named.
1t looks like an ordinary case of "jim-
lang"

The Storm Quieted and Trains Running
on Schedule Time Once More.
Matters have assumed their normal con-

through the snow belt, ana to-day all trains

East and west-bound trains passed
through this city yesterday and last night,
but not on schedule time.

was falling east of Summit, but the Their
mometer stood at something like 23o below
zero. and the indications were that the
storm was over.
Division Superintendent J. B. Wright re-
turned, tired and worn out, last night from
Truckee, where he has been directing oper-
ations during the recent blockade.
a new rotary plow will arrive at Truckee
this morning from the East and will re-
main there temporarily. 1t is an exact
counterpart of the worthy little machine
which did such noble work during both of
the blockades. 1t is probable that both of
the rotaries will shortly be stationed be-
tween Emigrant Gap and Alta, but it has
not been definitely decided upon yet.
With these two formidable machines, the
cyclone, and the several push-plows, the
railroad people feel confident that they can
now handle most any storm-or at least
keep the road open.
