esty, . otherwise these VIA peop
win make themselves most unple
ant, to say the least An Austeo
liam, who was cruising about these IS
lands in small yacht, found i'll nec-
essary to make some repairs TO his
boat, and took advantage of friend
~ harbor for that purpose. He pur-
chased a bit of land with a small
house upon it from the chief and
work was Immediately begun.
Everything went well for a time, as
the chief expressed himself to be en-
tirely satisfied and friendly. Soon,
however, the workmen began to miss
one small thing after another, and
finally an irreparable loss was sus-
tanned, by the natives entering the
house at night, and cutting the bel
lows of the forge through at the noz-
zle.
Hearing of this from the workmen,
the gentleman decided to go ashore
and demand satisfaction from the
chief. The only result of the inter-
view seemed to be a loss of temper on
one side, and display of insOlence
upon the other, the chief showing an
offensive indifference.
"After delivering my ultimatum,"
says the yachtsman, II turned round,
and found about fifty armed men
coming out of the bush behind
me. Halo! thought !, this looks like
fighting; so began to back down to
the beach, at the same time prepar-
ing small revolver I had in my
pocket.
sThe old chief, meanwhile, had
taken a tomahawk and spear from be-
hind tree, and made a rush for me,
and as he lifted his tomahawk to
strike, I fired full at his breast, but
the revolver missed fire, and I only
saved my skull by catching his arm
as it fell, and giving him trip at the
same time, which enabled me to back
away faster than he could follow me.
cit was not safe to turn and run,
as then could not see to ward off
any spears they might throw; but as
the chief was making for me the Sec
ond time, one of the others threw a
spear, which 1 avoided by knocking it
off with my hand; however, it pierced
it below the first finger.
Then the chief made another rush
for me, and as he struck I fell back
ward over the root of a tree. Again
I tried to fire the revolver, but it
would not work.
sat that moment I heard a rush.
ing noise in the leaves, and a howl
from the chief. My old dog Rover
had him by the leg. in which he made
his teeth meet; but he did not stop
long enough to let the man get blow
at him, and though the natives threw
many spears, they failed to hit him.
'The dogs timely assistance
enabled me to get down to the beach
and call H, who jumped ashore
with the muskets, when the natives
cleared off. l sent for Torrootooroo,
the chief, who came over with his
canoes, and when he saw meant
business, he came to terms and paid
the fine which I had demanded.
Then I made the chief present, he
made me one, and we were good
friends again, and there was no
further trouble"

A TALE OF A BURGLARY.

am secretary of the Anti Burglar
Security Association. The society
has been running three years now, and
it was very uphill work.
But it has, am happy to say,
turned out a tremendous success.
Ny poster did Tiny artful poster.
On my poster a gentleman and his
wife were discovered" in bed smiling
blandly; there was masked burglar,
Of ferOcious aspect, presenting re-
vOlver at them. Beneath was the
following legend:
Burglar-Good evening; have you
used Pears soap9
Mr.. Careful-No, sir; we have not;
but, being insured in the Anti-Burg-
lar Security Association, we must
request that you will effect your pur-
pose quietly and not disturb our
peaceful slumbers.
That poster did it; but I worked
like horse. Whenever a robbery
took place, I or my canvassers called
on the neighborhood in detail, max
ing what is termed a house-to-house
visitation. We invariably reaped a
large harvest of insurers. I believe
that, in time, bolts and door-chains
will become perfect drug in the mar
ket. When 1 asked my friend Tom
Sniff1es TO insure, he laughed.
'sNobOdy would think of burgling
our little place, Dolly" he said; "why,
we've only got a hundred pounds
worth at Arabella Villa. There's
Aunt James teapot, there's my wife's
christening-mug, and the whole of
our plate and jewelry might make up
the amount. It's hardly worth in
suring."
swell, it's only six shillings, Tom,"
I said. 'Insure yourself for a hun
dred; it can't do you any harm, and
every fresh name is of vital importance
to me-"
81 wouldn't lose Aunt James tea
pot, Tom, for worlds" burst in his
wife.
Women are so absurd; they think if
they insure their lives that people live
longer; they think that people who
insure their property never have a
fire. OF course we talked Tom over
between US.
81 do it," said he, sjust to oblige
you, because you're my chum, Dolly"
sTOm," replied, with a chuckle,
81 hope for your sake that you'll be
burgled within the week; we are most
liberal in our settlements"
Then we all three laughed, and lit
tie Mrs. Shiftless declared that If she
saw burglar she thought she should
die Of fright. I had q final cup of
tea out of Aunt James teapot and
took my leave.
Some six months afterward, my dear
old friend Tom Shiftless called at our
Offices to see me. / kept him waiting
outside q good while to impress him
with my new-hedged dignity. Then
he entered my sanctum, indicated
chair, and went on writing for full
two minutes, letting him see what
busy fellow I was.
ssNow, old man." I said, briskly,
putting down my pen, what can I
do for you? Tom, be brief and con-
else as you can, for my time is. as you
know, the property of the Anti-Burg-
larry Association"
ssGan you lend me fifty pounds.
Dollysr he said; 81 can't be more
brief than that.
Such are the penalties ofgreatness-
In the old days, he would never have
thought of asking for more than i've.
ssTom," said, little sOlemnly,

The Democratic Hybrid.

A call was made for a democratic
county and legislative convention at
the court house last Saturday which
met and nominated Il senator and rep
resentative-James H. Caldwell and
j. C. Williamson. WIN. Gallagher of
this place and Mr.. Williamson of Bill
llngs county were both candidates for
the house. The first ballot, which was
put as formal by Chairman Hayes,
stood twelve to eight in favor of MI.
Gallagher, but after u little c%aucusing
and some talk by Z. Causey the cor.
vention took the matter from the
chair by calling for Il new ballot
which resulted in Il tie. Mr.. Causey
gave another gauzy talk and the vote
stood twelve to eight in favor of Mr..
Williamson. With due respect for
tile nominee, whom personally we
like first rate, this was throwing Mr..
Gallagher over in manner WE are
sorry to see. The convention then
took a recess till about five o'clock p.
NJ, when it re-assembled. This time
it was a sort of u hybrid, taking on
the title of independent county
ticket" The following nominations
were made: sheriff, Jerry Hayes; au.
ditor. NJ. Linsley; treasurer, Frank
Lish; register of deeds. VIM. Story;
clerk of district court, j. p. Tingle;
district attorney, II. w. Bates; county
judge, Peter Wagner; surveyor, j. G.

Stark county met in convention ut
Taylor for the purpose of placing in
nomination IL county ticket and elect
ing five delegates to the legislative
convention held this week. Every
precinct in the county was represent
ed and of twenty-one delegates enti-
tied to representation twenty were
present. d. S. Littlehales was chosen
chairman and A. F. REILLY secretary.
Geo. Aud and John Leask were
strong candidates for the authorship.
The latter was nominated by u ma
jority of three. Mr.. Aud, who has
held his office for six successive years,
made IL good square fight for IL re.
nomination and his friends conceded
his defeat to have come fairly.
Thos Evans, Geo. McTier and j. E.
McCoul were candidates before the
convention for sheriff. but the latter
received Il majority vote on first hal-
lot and his nomination was made
unanimous.
The candidates for clerk of the
court were four: Guy J.. DeFrance,
John Riessbeck. Geo. w. Patrick and
Gus Finger. The two former devel.
oped the most strength and the latter
ones dropped out. On the third bal
lot Mr.. DeFrance had fourteen votes
against seven for Mr.. Riessbeck.
j. G. Campbell. II. F. Hatch, H. w.
Bates and Fred Cellars were re-nomi.
mated to their respective offices by &c.
clamation. a compliment to good pub
lie officers.
The nominations for assessors were
made by the delegates of the respec.
tive districts, as was the nomination
for commissioner of the second dis.
trict.
In conclusion of the business of the
convention, it was moved and carried
that the county central committee be
authorized to ill any and all vacancies
that might arise, or lie in the ticket.
Everything in the routine of bust.

man dealt fairly with all questions
and we have yet to hear of the person
who was not treated squarely.

The program was good. The artists
