A RIDICULOUS ArFAlK.

The Borro Se-Drayton affair. which
has occupied SO much attention in the
public press, is assuming the aspect oil
a farce. Indeed it has been farcical
from the beginning. A husband who
claims to have been subjected by an
writes letters to the alleged villain hint
ing at the nature OF the offense, and in
timating that he wants satisfaction.
The alleged villain sends his address to
the injured husband, along with the
hours when he is in condition to receive
visitors-that is, after lunch and before
dinner. The husband then declares
that they had better resume their cor
respondence in France.
The next scene in the farce is laid in
Paris. The alleged villain and the
alleged aggrieved person still manage
not to meet each other, but for fear that
they might casually be provoked to an
encounter, jury OF honor is called in to
decide whether they should or should
not fight. The jury of honor decides
against gore. Then the husband takes
passage for America on the Majestic,
presumably to put the ocean between
him and his foe. The foe also concludes
to take an American voyage, and il the
two are ever to have an opportunity in
their lives for hostile encounter OF any
kind they have il in this act. But the
injured husband manages to restrain
himself, and the alleged villain is equal
ly prudent. They both arrive in safety
Then comes New York and more state
ments, but no disturbance of the public
peace except by the newsboys shouting
the statement that is made latest.
The whole affair is too absurd for con-
temptation by real men. II Drayton
had chastised Borrowe on sight in the
streets OF London, or even taken a
severer method OF redressing his alleged
wrong, he would undoubtedly have
been vindicated by British, as he
would be by an American. jury, pro-
vided Drayton's charges are true. The
writing OF letters, the running from one
city to another, the appeal to jury OF
honor, composed Of men who probably
do not know what honor means, are
methods calculated to disgust decent
and sensible people. The alleged Of
Tense is not one that true manhood de-
liberates upon before seeking redress.
II it is to be punished outside of the
laws the excuse would be found in act
ing on the quick dictates OF an outrag-
ed husbands indignation, under the
plea Of that madness which sensible
men frequently forgive when honestly
advanced by one who has been visited
by intolerable dishonor
The public has little sympathy with
cowardice rs was shown in the case OF
that egotistica link head who at pres
ent holds the position Of Jigidier Brin-
die OF Arizonu.

New ORLEANS, La, March 3l.-The
Times-Democrat's Corpus Christi, Texas
special SAYS: A tragic affair occurred
in Hidalgo county yesterday which is
touching in the extreme. Two state
rangers, with Z. s. Coy OF this county as
guide were in the locality mentioned on
the outlook for horse thieves. Sudden
ly they came upon two Mexicans riding
the same horse and called to them to
stop as they were officers and wanted
information.
'I'll die before you shall take me-"
said the Mexican, riding in front and
drawing his six-shooter fired at the
rangers, but without effect. Coy imme-
diately returned the shot and brought
him to the earth. The ball passed
through his body and produced almost
instant death The Mexican riding be-
hind sprang from the horse, and kneel.

ing man, and began sobbing and begg-
ing him not to die. The rangers came
up and discovered that the uninjnred
Mexican was a l6-year-old girl dressed
in mems attire. and that the dying man
was her lover. They eloped for the pur-
pose OF getting married.

We believe August Flower cures

years ago it started in small country
town. To-day it has an honored
place in every city and country store,
possesses one of the largest manu-
featuring plants in the country and
sells everywhere. Why is this? The
reason is as simple as a child's

santa CRUZ Given the DIVISION Encamp-
ment in August.
Santa Cruz was definitely and finally
settled upon yesterday by Major General
Dimond and Adjutant- General Allen as the
place for the much-discussed division en-
campment on August 6.
AS announced yeste ebay morning the
Southern Pacific Railroad had conceded a
bonus of $4,000 rather than consent to a re-
ductlOn Of the fares and as this addition to
the funds will put the guard through Gen.
eral Dim0nd th0ughtit best to close negotia-
tiOns. considering himself under some moral
obligation at least to stand by tie original
arrangements with Santa Cruz.
There is a little over $50, 600 Of the appro-
priati0n left, which, with the $4,000 of the
citizens and $1,000 Of the railroad, gives
total OF a little over $4,000 to run the camp
on, over Sl0,2 alone going for trauspOrta-
ton This will permit also Of payment, in
part at least, If not in full, Of the horse-hire
for all mounted officers, which had origin
ally been waived in order to cut the garment
according to the cloth. As the division will
yet have TO pay for the fuel, forage and
straw. there is not company bat will come
out OF the camp with some deficit. Major
General Himond is now considering the
plan of making the campone of the division
in fact By bringing also the u companies of
the Seventh and Ninth regiments of the
brigade south of Tehachapi. The general
hopes to accomplish this end with deferred
payments and allowances dependent upon
deficiency bill at the next Legislature.
