dinner the loss was discovered at once
and the police sent out. Chris was
apprehended at pawn shop where he
was trying to sell one of the opals
and the jewels recovered.
After this slam on c. C.'s character
the learned monk goes on to a disquisi-
ton upon the mythical person Chris
Colon, as he is pleased to call him,
and reason thusly.
The real name OfChristopher Column
bus was Christopher Colon.
In 400 there We're few books and
less learning.
The monks had it all and they
taught the children.
They taught well and made them
mind their stops. Thus pupil read
ing would say:
Who 30 blOwth not his own BAzOo
comma the same shall not he blown
period.
Thus proving to his teacher that he
knew the stops when he saw them
and at the same time improving the
sense of what he was reading.
"NOw no doubt" the learned monk
adds, ''some passers by heard the
scholars drawing out their lessons
about some Christopher, after whose
name had been placed colon and
hence the error"
From all which Father Manheimer
deduces the theory that there never
was such person as Christopher Col
umbus.

One Lone Drunk.

W. ii. Garrett went on high lone
some Friday night, endeavoring TO
keep dry by filling up with fire water:
He was gathered in by the police and
co-ralled in the calaboose. Yesterday
he appeared in the police court with
Il countenance on him that looked as
if he had been through thre>hing
machine. Evidently he had not been
as drunk as he could have been, for
when the Judge assessed eontribu.
ton of 81 for the city treasury. he
paid it without murmur and went
out smiling.

This paragraph might he callet In,

There is nothing original in this ar

first place. he stated, he found that
all sea coast nations had legends OF
some great seaman who mad made some
great voyage of discovery. Hence,
the Christopher legend was not Il soll-
tary instance. :,
/ In the second place, he read up all
the accounts to he found in the mon

and to be frank. he did not form Il
favorable opinion Of him. 1t was
true that he had appeared i'll three
courts to plead his cause. but, the

''they were police courts" He ais

near Sansome. early yesterday morning.
The injured men were John F. Runge, a
young carpenter living at 240 Greenwich
street, and friedrich Strand. a bartender re-
siding at 243 Greenwich street.
The cause of the trouble Is supposed to
be an old grudge existing between the two
men.
Runge is the owner of a horse and wagon
which he uses in his business.
Yesterday afternoon the rig disappeared
and he started out to hunt it up.

East street with his property.
lie stopped him and ordered him to get
out OF the wagon. and a dispute ensued.

during the fracas pistol shot was fred
which quickly brought the police to the
scene. They found Strand lying on the
ground apparently seriously injured. The
injured man pointed out young Ruuge as
the man who had fired the shot, and who.
when arrested. was bleeding from knife
wound in the hand.
The patrol wagon was summoned and the
belligerents taken to the Receiving Hospital,
where Dir. Deane found that Strand was
suffering from a bullet wound In the right
leg and that Runge had one Of his fingers
nearly severed from the hand where the
the former had cut him with the knife.
The physicians do not consider the
wounds Of either OF the men serious, and
after their Injuries were dressed, Runge
was booked at the City Hall station as
witness. while his alleged assaiant was ar

Strand asserts that the team which he is

Runge's brother, and denies that he as

Poverty Drives a Grocery
Clerk to Crime.
Arrested in the Park by the Man He Had
Robbed-He Confesses His
Guilt.

When Frederick E. Anderson, now en-
pioyed as clerk in Sutter street jeweIry
store. wearies Of his station in life. he will
doubtless seek and obtain position on the
police force of this city.
Anderson has qualities that are not
always found behind the counter, qualities
which he displayed yesterday afternoon ss
the great advantage of himself and his en-
ployer by arresting thief who had stolen
valuable diamond ring from the store ON
Friday afternoon.
The thief calls himself Frederick Yerkes.
ond says he was recently mployed as clerk
in Stockton grocery store. He sauntered
gaily into The jewelers. and gazed with
critical eyes at the glittering generalities
displayed in the cases.
Anything to-day. sir?" asked Mr..
Anderson.
You might let me look at some diamond
rings" answered Yerkes, with the air of
man who had wagered heavily ia favor OF
the election of Grover Cleveland.
Anderson lifted tray of flashing gems
from its velvet bed and placed it before the
grocer's clerk. who seemed to be in no hurry
TO make selection. He unloosed sons
conservative ideas about the weather from
the place where they had been penned la
his brain, aud then began toying with the
rings. He was hard, very hard, TO please.
Anderson was growing impatient when
another customer called to him, and YerkeS,
saying that none of the rings just exactly
suited him. turned and walked out of the
store. When Anderson replaced the tray In
the case he saw with CONSERVATION that the
fastidous groceryman had walked away
with one OF the finest rings il had contained

Anderson went home that night with
heavy heart. Yesterday afternoon he was
walking in Golden Cato when his glad eyes
fell UPON the thief and upon the stolen ring ON

until an officer came to his relief.
Yerkes was charged at the City Prison

KANSAS GOES "wEr."
One Peculiar Result OF the Populist Vic
tory In That State.

One Peculiar Result OF the Populist Vic
tory In That State.
TOPEKA. Kans., Nov. 13. Two surpris-
ing results OF the election in Kansas, which
have hitherto escaped notice, are at last
beginning TO attract general attention.
One of these is the carrying of the propo-
stion to hold a constitutional convention
and the other is the cessation of the en-
forcement of the prohibitory laws.
In their eagerness to elect their State and
electoral tickets the Republicans paid no
attention to the matter of tile constitutional
convention, and il was carried by default
on their part. The object of the convention
is a revision of the State constitution so as
to eliminate all Objectionable and obsolete
features and to add new and needed pro-
visions.
The convention will be taken advantage
Of by the anti-prohibition factions OF all
parties to attempt the elimination of the
prohibition amendment, and the hottest
kind Of fight on the question is antic-
ipated.
Lorenzo Lewellihg, the new third-party
Governor-elect, has always been opposed to
prohibition and has announced that the
enforcement OF the laws must hereafter be
left with the local officers, and that the
State will rot use The power In its hands to
enforce the law in localities where the citi-
zens do not desire its enforcement This
in effect means local option, and already the
liquor industry throughout the State is
booming. Saloons have been opened iu
many cities and towns, and Kansas to-day
Is as practically ''wet State" as before the
original amendment was carried,
