Arrested for Obtaining Money Wrong

Late night before last Deputy Marshal
Bowman arrested E. a. Lutes, who has been
engaged in the ticket scalping business with
A w. Wertz, on the charge of obtaining
money under false pretenses. He was
taken before Judge Gisler yesterday after
noon for hearing. 1t seems that Lutes got
himself tangled up in the affair by selling a
ticket to q Swede, who was passing through
to Portland. The ticket was sold by Lutes
for $50, and he promised the purchaser that
it would entitle him to baggage transporta-
ton also. He gave the Swede check for
trunks, which upon presentation at the
depot proved to be bogus. The defendant
seemed to be unable to explain his actions
and the Judge fined him SIS and costs
Lutes appealed the case to the First dis
trict court

A Sacred Log.

There is a log of yellowish colored
wood standing just outside of Chi Hua
gate, Pekin. This log has remained
in its present position since the fall
Of the old Wing dynasty. 1t is in
good preservation and has commanded
the respect of all classes and conditions
of people. Insects in China usually
make inroads in timber in very short
while, but they are said never to alight
upon this sacred tree trunk, and it is
true that they have not left a single
trace of their work upon it, while the
timbers in every direction are a perfect
honeycomb of insect work.
The Chinese people believe that the
log is the habitation of some god, and
on that account gather and worship at
its base at least once year. Among
the higher classes the day for this unique
species of worship is the first of each
succeeding month, unless that day
should happen TO be new moon day,
Oct. of every year the emperor COM
mands the board of ceremonies to ap-
point a committee to pay their respects
to the deifed log.-Chicago Times

GAM HOUSTON. .

Houston-whom they know from their
school histories to have been twice repro
sentative from Tennessee In congress, gov
ernor of Tennessee, commander In chief OF
the armies Of Texas, twice president OF the
republic of Texas, her representative for
two terms in the United States senate, and
also twice her governor-did he walk these
pathways, did he converse with their fa-
theirs! No wonder they can hardly realize
that this man, one of the most remarkable
known to history, and whose career was
'as brilliant and In some respects as err
ratio as the comet In it's widest flights"
could have passed several years in the very
town where they themselves live. Yet the
few Walker county veterans who have not
yet responded to the last reveille we'll re-
member his majestic form, his soft and
clear eye, which beamed upon all with q
smile that won many friends.
Houston's homestead stands at the foot
of one Of the hills that make the little city
of Huntsville picturesque. Indeed there
are so many Of these hills traversed by
small streams and gullies that it is hard
matter to find level spots upon which to
erect residences Hoiston's house, which
he occupied when he first settled in Hunts
vile, however, is in one of the loveliest
valleys to be seen anywhere Situated
about mile from the business portion of
the city, it furnished q quiet retreat for
the old warrior when not engaged In pub
lie duties. In front Is a clear space giving
q broad view of the surrounding country
for several miles. The rear Is shaded by q
dense forest of pine. oak and hickory.
Not stones throw from the house flows
small stream Of clear, sparkling water,
and farther away beautiful spring bub-
bles to the surface The house itself, like
all others constructed in Texas years ago,
was built more for convenience and ability
to Withstand the ravaRes of time than for
ornament. It Is neat, well preserved,
one story building, and though several
rooms have been added by the present own
ers, 1t is not otherwise changed from what
1t was when the home of Houston and his
family.
After Houston's retirement from the
Texas capital his life was uneventful. He
suffered from few physical ailments, but
the wounds he received in his Indian bat
ties were never healed and no doubt has
tened his death, which occurred ON the Goth
day of July, 1853
The house where Houston died Is about
two miles from his first residence. When
viewed at distance it looks like q ship.
The windows are small and narrow, and
What appears like deck can be plainly

quaint house. 1t is said to have been built

Mans Relation to His Country.

Not recognizing the fundamental dis
tinction between society which, having
fighting for its chief business, makes
sustentation subordinate, and a society
which, having sustentation for its chief
business, makes fighting subordinate,
there are many who assume that dis
ciplinary policy appropriate to the first
is appropriate to the last also. But the
relations Of the individual to the state
are in two cases entirely different. Un-
like the Greek, who, not owning him
self was owned by his city, the English
man is not in any appreciable degree
owned by his nation, but in very posi-
tive way owns himself. Though, IL Of
fit age, he may on great emergency be
taken possession Of and made to help in
defending his country; yet this contin-
gency qualities to but small extent the
private possession Of his body and the
self directing of his actions. ns.-Herbert

of the building was fitted up like an ordi-

But of all the places of interest connected
with the hero of San Jacinto in Huntsville
none has attracted more attention and COM
ment than his last resting place.
The summer rain beats on this lonely sod,
= Wheresleeps hero with an honored name;
One who in ancient times had been god,
And worshiped In the highest shrine Of
fame
But here moves on the silent seasons tread,
And deeper grows the dust above his un-
marked bed.
Who in the temple Of the gods should dwell,
IL genius claims place In such fame,
Sleeps here, naught his burial place to tell,
Save where green Nature hath her fingers
lain,
Or some old comrade with thoughtful hand
Hath set stone to keep his record grand.
The only thing that marks its identity is
a plain marble shaft, about five feet high,
