GONE WITH ANOTHER MAN.
A Saloonkeepsr's Wits Missing and
Young Earkeeper Too.

a SalOOnkespsr8 WIS Missing and q
Young Earkeeper Too.
Christian Hahn, whose saloon and lodg-
ing house in the frame building at Bay and
Jefferson streets was licked up by the flames
on the night of the Guckenheimer-So Solomon
| fire, Sept. 25, has suffered another loss. He
lost his bar before, but 1t is his wife he has
lost this time. 1t is the same old story,
gone with handsomer man."
Hahn employed a young man in his bar
for several months before the fire who went
by the name OF Joe" Nobody seems to
remember his other name. Joe was young
German. a rather good-looking young fell
low, and ne soon ingratiated himself into
Mrs. Hahn's good graces.
Mrs. Hahn was a hard working woman,
30 everybody says who knew her. Rather
too hard worked. perhaps, and some seem
TO think this is the cause she fled her
liege lord. They think he was too severe on
her.
Sometime after the fire Hahn collected
the $500 insurance which he had on his
stock. He kept $500 of the money and gave
$500 to his wife to keep, or as
others have it, his wife took the
$500. Anyway Mrs. Hahn and the
handsome barkeeper turned up missing the
other morning. and nobody could tell any
thing OF their whereabouts. The $500 was
also missing. Hahn said very little about
the matter except to few friends, but yes
terdaV the story leaked out and was general
talk around the barrooms. Some said that
Hahn was a great deal more worried about
the loss OF his money than the loss Of his
wife.
Mrs. Hahn also carried with her her
4-year~old boy. The whereabouts of the
parties are unknown, but Hahn will make
II hot for his handsome ex-barkeeper, Joe"
IL he finds out
Acquaintance Of Hahn said last night
that the young barkeeper had made him
believe he had inherited a sum of money in
Germany, which he would receive shortly,
and the two had arranged to go into a
partnership in the saloon business. 1t was
Mrs. Hahn, however, that "Joe" wanted to
enter into partnership with.

WIRE sTLE WITH A TARPON.
The Big Fish Was Challenger anC
Came Off Victorious.

mo Dig FISH was Cnal9nR9r BQQ
Came OFF Victorious.
From the Ardnsas Pass Beacon.
County Attorney Andrews has some rare
experiences with the gamest of game fish,
the famous tarpon. Tom never goes for the
grand scaled monsters of the brny deep
with hook and line, as Cows. Hogg and
Ireland do. He just goes along in the tar
pom hunt az if he were going to court, and
yet he manages to carry of the lions share
of the sport. 1t will be remembered how
he got his hand into the gill Of Senator
Cokes tarpon and tusseled with il until by
a skillful founoe the fish threw the b Jok
into the lawyers nose. Then, without tell
ing, he turned looss the fish, grabbed the
line and shouted the situation to Capt.
Bailey, who was pulling in the line.
Last week Tom went with another party
on a tarpon hunt. AS usual, he had no
fishing tackle. He went along merely as a
happy, contented observer Of the gamesome
sport. He was sitting on the deck comfort
ably smoking his long -stemmed pipe when
a huge tarpon, envYing the serene content
msnt Of the lawyer, made a wild leap from
the wave, aimed at thu lazy mans face,
missed but fairly knocked the pipe out Of
its opponents mouth and tauntingiy settled
itself on deck right at the feet of the dis
ciple Of Blackstone

hun without the least provocation, had ins
sultingly slapped the pipe out OF his mouth
and scattered his dignity and tobacco to the
wind, and noY lay there grinning defiance
in his face. This was all too much for our
friend. He sprsng upon his tarpon
foe Ia seven ry-fivt pounder) and rode him
all over the deck. Man and fish, they
mixed things wildly. Tom grappled
the fish in a more than loving embrace.
while the enraged fish with its tail
lashed Tom too vigorously for ordinary
play. They rolled, they tumbled, the big
scales flew from the big fish; the lawyer
painted; but held on with determination to
win verdict in the case. The fun grew
fast and furious. The unused muscles of
the officer of the court, however, were
soon taxed beyond endurance. When per-
force his grasp was relaxed the fish, with a
snort Of triumph, lsaped back into IFS

Jews in EnpInnl.

England is unnecessarily excited over
what it is pleased to regard as an in
vasion by Russian Jews. There is
already large Jewish element in Eng,
land from which the country has ex-
perienced no evil results.
1t is fact beyond controversy that
Jews arc orderly people who have q
decided talent for minding their own
business and keeping out OF the police
courts. For q people SO long and so
generally oppressed they average sur
prisingly well.
If the Jews who are driven out oil
Russia work for any wages they can get
in England, it is because the Jew always
does the best he can to maintain him
self. He will work for next to nothing
and live on the proceeds rather than
beg or steal. Many q Gentle might
profit by his example OF industry and
thrift.
The talk about violent movement
against the Jewsin a country which had
a Moses Montefore is discreditable.

General Raum is convinced that a
conspiracy has been Matched against
him in Washington, by which it is
hoped to drive him from his office as
Commissioner of Pensions,
1t is true that he has been violently
and, in some instances, very meanly as
sailed in the interest Of persons who
have been unable to use him in his
official capacity, tits equally true that
almost all the Democratic and Mug
wump press has done what it could to
abet this scheme. vrE
All the same it is q mistake for Gen
eral Raum to suppose that the country
can be made to believe that his son was
not dishonest, because his own critics
arc unfair. The father may stand by
the son, but the Commissioner OF Pen
sions should not support a clerk who
had been found guilty of dishonest and
scandalous practices.

DR.. Brooks aud the Bishoprlc.


When DIR. Brooks was elected Bishop
of Massachusetts, the country applaud
ed the selection of one of its most emil
nent diyines and easily the first OF
American pulpit orators, to fill SO honor
able place. Amid the applause, how
ever, there were heard some discordant
carping voices.
DR.. Brooks is Broad Churchman,
who does not confne his religion with
in the walls Of the denomination to
which he belongs. He is too broad for
some Of his brother clergymen, who are
getting themselves into line to shut him
out OF the bishopric.
DIR. Brooks does not need the prefer
ment with which his diocese desires to
honor him. He is big enough man
without it, and if defeated by the small
er men he will be bigger than ever. He
can afford to look on without concern,
and !, this, probably, is his frame OF
mind.
II a man Of DR.. Brooks learning, piety
and character cannot be bishop when
the people most in interest desire him
to be, some Episcopalians will be set to
thinking.
