The newspapers are telling a re-
markable story, which first appeared
in st. Nicholas, about COW out in
Kansas that lost her calf, and in her
great distress took liking to boy
and adopted the boy for her calf and
was never happy moment with the
boy out of her sight. st. Nicholas
doesn't give the name of the boy, but
we suppose John ]. ingalls, was the
boy that old sucky took such liking

The insurance agents of Memphis

The insurance agents Of Memphis
have greatly increased the rates On
cotton and the Commercial is alarm
ed, fearing the advance will drive
cotton, away and destroy the Men,
phis cotton market, but knows no
way to head off the agents. We
would suggest to Editor Carmack the
use of Racinate fire Proofing as a
substitute for insurance. That will
knock the agents out and defy the
frey element. Moreover, shirts
made OF racinated cotton would en-
able the Memphis people TO keep on
their underwear and keep cool all
summer, no matter how many CEN
ventions might come up.

A GOLD WATCH.
A Negro Turns 1t Over to Chief
of Police Stafford.
Says He Bought 1t From Chas. NorAeet,
Who Has Been Connected With
Clarksville Robberies.

Chief Stafford since the recent rob-
berries were committed has been Sc
cretly, but diligently at work trying
to find out who the guilty parties
are. So far he has met with poor sue
cess, but he has come to the conclu-
sion that every one of the robber-
les recorded were committed by PEG
pie who knew all about the premises
they were going to rob. In other
words, he thinks there is a band of
thieves here who steal the valuables
and carry them away and dispose of
them at whatever price they can get.
It's strange, but true, that there are
people in the world who will buy a
$500 gold watch from ragged ne.
gro for $500 and never suspect that
the watch was stolen. Or if they do
suspect it, they say nothing about it.
Silverware and jewelry are stolen
here and taken to other places where
they are disposed Of to people who
are as mean as the ones who do the
stealing.
In this connection case that oc-
Cured yesterday will he of interest.
A negro man came to town and called
for the Chief of Police. Chief STAFF
ford was out of town, but when he
returned he was told that the negro
wanted to see him, and that he could
possibly intercept him at the depot.
Mr.. Stafford went to the depot, and
sure enough there was the man who
had called for him. He took him to
one side and the negro deliberately
pulled gold watch from his pocket
and gave 1t to the officer. On being
questioned, he said that he had pur-
chased it from Chas. Norfleet on
June 8, for $500. Norfieet was then
ina Kentucky town not hundred
miles away. He claimed that he
bought the watch from some one else,
but the negro who bought it from
Norfleet is OF the opinion that he
stole it from some one In this city.
The watch is pretty one, and is
solid gold. When new it must have
cost not less than $4,000. 1t IS not
worn much, and is practically as
good as new. The negro who had
the watch claimed that he was afraid
to take the watch about with him and
consequently turned 1t over to the Of
ficer. Mr.. Stafford has the watch
and it can be secured by the owner,
providing it is described properly.
The watch has name in it, but it
Is not familiar to the officer.
Chas. Norfleet is the negro who
robbed the Misses Wilson two years
ago, and the same one who a few
weeks ago robbed the residence of T.
p. Major. There is strong belief that
he has been connected with other
robberies and that this watch was
taken in one of his raids. He should
be caught by all means ard sent to
the penitentiary, where he should
have been long ago.

The Country Opposed to the Second

The ambition of men has no
bounds. Small men are often made
great by having greatness thrust upon
them. All who imagine themselves
great feel that their cups would be

to be President of these United States

want or ask for any more at the
hands of the people. But those who
are so fortunate as to get there by ac-

them are accidents), no sooner than
they are settled In Office with the

Harrison, when elected, felt some
gratitude to Blaine for his elevation

WANTED THE CHILD.
The First Chapter After the Filing of

The First Chapter After the Filing of a
Divorce Complaint.
Quite number of interested persons
were gathered together in Judge
Smiths court room, yesterday afternoon,
during the hearing Of habeas corpus
proceeding in the Matusklewitz divorce
suit. A complaint was filed by the wife
a few days ago, asking divorce on the
grounds of cruelty and intemperance.
Since that time Mrs. Matuskiewitz has
had the care of two of their children,
and the husband took the third, a
ght-lookiug little girl about or 6
years old. The wife caused her husband
to bring the child to court yesterday,
alleging that he had kept her from see
ing it. Judge Smith thought it would
be inadvisable to take any testimony at
the present time, but, by the agreement
of both attorneys, Mr.. Munday for the
husband and Mr.. Crawford for the wife,
made an order directing Mr.. Matuskie-
witt to allow the mother to see the little
girl whenever she desired, pending the
trial of the divorce suit. He also ex-
tended the order to take in both par
ents and all the children. Considerable
feeling seemed to be underlying the
calm exterior which the witnesses and
principals assumed.

A SPLENDID OPPORTUNITY.
The Attractions OF the Hotel Coronado at
San piegu.

Sdh l'AeEus
A splendid opportunity will be offered
the people of Los Angeles and vicinity,
during the coming week, to visit the re-
nowned Hotel del Coronado. 1t is an
astonishing fact that comparatively few
Los Angeles people have ever seen what
is acknowledged to be the finest hotel in
the world. A hotel whose attractions
are not alone in its superior cuisine,
furnishings and service, but whose sur
roundings play an important part in the
entertainments of its guests. Saratoga,
Newport, Cape May, nor even Bar Har-
Dor can offer tithe of the attractions
that Coronado can. Its romantic loca-
ton, the delightful scenery, its highly
ornamented grounds, its beautiful
drives, it's warm plunge baths, its mu-
scum and botanical gardens, its superb
surf bathing all contribute TO it's glory.
This week it's spacious halls will be
filed with the creme de la creme of
Southern California society, high E fiji
GERS of the army and navy and states
men of national renown. Professor Ro-
mandy's famous orchestra will be in
attendance, the hotels and grounds will
be gorgeously decorated and by night
brilliantly illuminated.
In Ssn Diego, across tho bay, the
celebration OF Cahrillo's discovery will
be in progress. and the harbors will be
animated by the presence OF the white
squadron and warships of the British
aud Mexican navy.
Those who miss visiting Coronsdo
this week will miss the most brilliant
scenes which have ever been enacted on
the Pacific coast.
The Southern California railroad,
Santa Fe route, makes reduced rate of
only one fare fer the round trip. and
tickets are good returning October Sd.

Colby VS.. Colby.

A divorce case was tried yesterday
afternoon in Department l of the su-
perior court, and while there was no
especial contest, both parties were pres
ent. The suit was brought by Mrs.
Lotta Colby against her husband,
Alonzo L. Colby, the grounds alleged
being desertion and abandonment.
Mrs. Colby testified that her husband
deserted her over year ago, telling her
he was going to Arizona and that he
never expected to come back and live
with her again. He gave no reason for
his action.
Her son, boy about 16 years old,
corroborated his mothers evidence and
the decree was granted. Before it was
decided both attorneys announced that
the parents had agreed to allow their
two children to choose hereafter with
whom they would go, the father or the
mother. Besides the boy there is a
younger daughter.
