his tongue and .pitifully protested that
he didn't know any thing about it; in

Then she became further excited and at

was delivered from his torinentor's

clared that the bank clerk was her own
and only husband. But gradually, as
her eyes cleared of tears she began to
detect certain features not entirely in
consonance with those of her lost hus-
band, and she finally confessed that this
was not he. In explanation: of the
dramatic incident she stated that her
husband had been from home for three
days, and that while looking for: him
down town she saw the young man afore-
mentioned, and installing him for her
husband, she had tracked him to his lair
and cast herself upon his bosom without

JImminez'S Suspension,

The reason why Martinez Jimminez
was suspended as postal carrier in
this city was because he did not emp
ty the mail box in front of the Jail
from Decem Der Sth to the 30th, and
when opened, that box had 1876 letters
in it. Postmaster Johnson took the
pains to find out just when the letters
were mailed in that box, and found
out as above. The routes of the mount
ed carriers had been heightened to-
give an additional delivery to the
business men, and this box was add
ed to Jemminez's old route. He did
not like the additional work and so
shirked it, reporting at the Office that
he had collected it.

How the Young Ladies We're Thr own
Out.
The accident to Misses Dashiell and
George, recorded yesterday, and for
which no adequate reason could be
learned down to the time of going to
press has been accounted for. 1t was
witnessed by Mrs. Stratus, to whose
house the young ladies were carried
after being hurt, and by whom Mr..
Jaggi was notified and asked to bring
them into the city. The ladies
were quietly driving towards West
End when the horse SHE'D at aMexican
blanket on some bushes, turned sud-
denly to one side and tilted the buggy
so that the ladies were thrown out
and, their heads striking the ground,
stunned them. Miss Dashiell was
thrown against rock which accounts
for her more serious injuries. Both
ladies are convalescing; Miss George
rapidly, but neither of them have any
clear recollection of the occurrence.

to recognize tb cir existence and pro-

city places these houses, and gam

transactions open to the police, puts
it within the power of the respectable
to keep them from spreading over the
city, because the character OF the

long as evils abound it is the part of
governments to do the best possible

this is what the city council
