Afraid OF Taking the Disc ase.

The late II. L. GUIDE, superintendent
of the city railroad, was one of the most
genial and large hearted men in San
Francisco. One day he contracted Sc
we're cold which turned into quick con-
sumption. He consulted his physician,
who told him that Lis complaint was of
little importance and would pass away
in day or two with little care and
rest, but realized that he was already
beyond medical aid and that a change
of climate might do him some good. He
was accordingly ordered to Auburn,
which is the resort Of consumptives
from all over California. The doctor
was surprised day or SO after to see
him back again, and inquired what was
the matter. "Well." he said, there was
so much coughing around me that ] al

In a trial Of political Importance, the
whole case Of which hinged upon the
question of the commences of certain
letters, the most important witness was,
while under examination, suddenly
taken by surprise by being called upon
to write down particular word which
occurred in the letters The slip of
paper was handed back with the word
misspelt in an identically similar fash
ion to that in which it appeared in the
correspondence, and the clever forger
was soon after detected in the witness
himself.-San Francisco Argonaut.

will mention an extraordinary spe-
ciic for the cure Of snakebite which
General Sir John Bisset obtained at
Natal. 1t was called "Croft's Tincture
of Life" and was prepared and sold by
an old Scotchman who kept the nature Of
its ingredients and preparation a pro-
found secret. 1t was put up in small
bottles about the length and thickness
of mans forefnger, and these were
sold for half a guinea caro- each.
Of the efficacy the general declared
that there could be no question. He had
himself preserved by it the lives of two
of his servants, who at different times
had been bitten by venomous serpents,
to say nothing of a great many oxen and
beautiful and valuable horse. Unfor-
tunately, Crofts died some years ago,
and it is understood that the secret of
his tincture persisted with him. 1t was
probably remedy the preparation of
which was impaired to him by some one
of the Zulu witch doctors, whose knowl-
edge of the curative properties of all
African mineral, vegetable or animal
substances is known to be most extern
sive.
But they guard this knowledge jeal-
ously, and are seldom won to impart it
TO any European. If the secret of the
tincture could be rediscovered its finder
might perhaps be enabled to claim the
reward of 10000 now offered by the
British government of India for specific
against snakebites. London Cor. Phil

TAE POLICE COURTS.

Dan Daley's Sentence for Having Struck
officer Farmer-Other Cases.
Dan Daley was given distinctly to un-
derstand by Justice Austin yesterday
that it was not the proper thing to
either hit an officer on the nose, or kick
him on the shins, when the said officer
was endeavoring TO arrest him. For in
dulging in little pleaeantry of this ma
ture, Daley was fined $25. Officer
Farmer was endeavoring to arrest Daley
on Alameda street. The latter was
charged with being drunk ard creating
a disturbance. Daley became obstrep-
erous when the officer started with him
to the station, and taking the guardian
of the peace unawares, he smote him on
the nose. Officer Farmer then placed
the irons on Daley's hands,
and the march to the station
was again taken, up, Daley
using very forcible language all the time.
His next move was to kick the police
man on the shins. Then it was that
Daley got remembered in the way of
several strong emashes over the head
with the policeman'e club. These caused
him to subside, and he was taken to the
Jail without further difficulty. For get
ting drunk he was fined $40.
+. P. King was arrested yesterday on
a warrant charging him with battery.
The complaining witness was Charles
Weller. King is waiter at the old
Vienna Buffet. Weller entered the
place and got into a discussion with
King about debt that Weller states
that the latter owed him. The debate
became warm and special officer put
Weller out, with the assistance of King,
For so assisting in the expulsion King
is now arrested.
Ed Kelley was found guilty of the
charge of battery in Justice Austin'e
court, yesterday, and was fined $40. He
got into difficulty with two women
named Molly Patterson and Jennie La.
donda.
Charles Gelmacher was fined SIC by
Justice Owens yesterday, for disturbing
the peace OF the Basket saloon.
