A Brave Woman.

Mrs. J. K. Lowry did brave act yesterday morning in aFresting Mexican horse thief. She was seated in the front room of her residence in West Prescott when she heard some enc in the vicinity of the Masonic cemetery yell out, Stop that man." Looking out she saw a Mexican making for the hills as fast as his feet could carry him.
 Forgetting that the county jail was empty, her first thought was that another prisoner was making his escape, and her husband already having an unsatisfactory record in that direction she made up her mind to stop the fleeing form of the Mex ican. Grabbing up pistol belong ing to her husband she rushed out and just as the Mexican was round ing the corner of Ed. Wagoner's s corral, she drew the pistol down on him and commanded him to halt. The command was immediately obeyed and at the same time the Mexican threw up his hands, in which position she compelled him to remain until the deputy sheriff in pursuit arrived and took him in charge. The man is suspected of being implicated in the robbery of fellow eountryman the day pre- yious. and also charged with having stolen a horse belonging to Len Hale.
 The JOURNAL MINER dolfs its son. brero to the brave and courageous little wife of Sheriff Lowry, and when woman suffrage shall succeed in this territory and women are al- lowed to hold office, it names Mrs. Lowry as candidate for sheriff.

were always source of amusement and
pleasure to me. Not SO much on ac-

cause OF the picturesque and lively
scene presented to the eye.
Each OF the two hundred guests was
waited upon by his own servant, and
these swarms of swarthy fellows, clad
IN their snowy robes and turbans Of
every hue and shape, nimbly rushing
through the dense crowd, shouting and
warning each other with cries Of
s'Warda?' balancing trays with exquis-
ite skill, and swinging bottles and de-
canters as reclzlessly about their heads
as II they meant to brain each other,
always made in their aggregate effect
a picture that excelled the charms of a
well-mounted fairy play. Peculiar it is,
too, how each servant cares only for
his master, and does it in the most bru-
tai and egostical fashion. Thus, for
instance, that he will grasp bottle of
Worcestershire saIlce, or the pepper and
salt anywhere 1t hsppena 10 stand--de.

all this there is very little confusion and

According to the Railroad Gazette,
there are many cases in which 1000
horse power and more has been cxerted
by locomotives. Indicator ears of Strong

the y,ung attaches of the Legations
here have made use of their immunity
in this regard to run heavily in debt
The United States government never
interferes in such matters, considering
them beneath the dignity of its notice.
Its notion is that tradesmen, knowing
the privileges of these people from
abroad, should look out for their own
protection.
Fortunately, the gentlemen who
represent foreign governments are gen.
orally educated, scholarly diplomatists
OF high rank and standing. who are too
proud of themselves and their positions
to commit breaches of peace or viola
tions of law. Very rarely is an offense
committed by them, unless it be fast
driving, OF occasional over-indulgence
in wine.
The foreigner is not only safe from
arrest under his own roof, but the law
says that he is entitled to entire ex-
emption from local jurisdiction, either
civil or criminal. Wherever he goes the
minister represents the rights and dig
nifty of the sovereign or state by which
he is delegated; his person is sacred
and inviolable." So absolute is this i'm.
munity from arrest that, if foreign
minister should murder one of his at.
taches or servants, he would not be ar.
rested nor punished by our courts. His
government would be notified by oul
secretary of state, but if his govern
ment did not punish him ours could pay
no further attention to the matter. II
he should kill an American citizen
however, his government would be re
quired to take him home and punish
him, and pay indemnity, or there
would be lot of powder burned by
American soldiers and sailors. These

fleges; but they cannot go so far as to
assail or injure American citizens with
out trouble.
Not many years ago an lriental prince
fell desperately in love with one of our
American girls and wanted to marry
her; but the young lady merely
laughed at his infatuation. The royal
oriental was determined to show that
he was dead in earnest about the mat
ter, SO the next morning he was verify
dead in earnest, having hanged himself
out of window of his house. The sui
eide was never noticed by our police de-
partment, no action was taken in mat
ter; but our state department reported
the circumstance to his government,
and there the matter ended. Our coun-
try cannot afford to make great official
notes of such small matters as the sui
cides of oriental princes who become
dead in earnest over our girls who are
too sensible to reciprocate their affeo-
tions.
Once upon time there was a score
tary of a foreign legation who indulged
the cheerful habit of riding on horse
back across the pavements, up to the
doors OF stores and shops. Several po-
licemen demonstrated with him, but he
coo]ly defied the officers, telling them
that they did not dare to arrest him, or
even lay hold of the bride of his horse.
This fellow was in no sense a gentle
man, and was soon recalled by his gov
ernment. 1t happened that he was on
the pavement on Il street one afternoon
when two young ladies came along and
were obliged to stop on account of this
rude foreigner. A police officer re.
quested him to get off of the pavement,
but he smiled superciliously and de-
clined to move. The policeman then
said:
II cannot arrest you, but can kill
your horse, and our government can
pay for him."
Saying which the officer drew a big
! pistol from his pocket, adding: 81 hope
your legs will not get in the way of
these bullets
| The coward and churl put spurs tc
his horse and went careering home and
told his chief, the minister, that he had
been grossly insnlted by a policeman
The minister investigated the matter
ascertained the truth, complimented
the policeman, and had his fresh young
man recalled from Washington.
| The secretary of foreign legation
during Lincoln's administration was
arrested on the street for improper pe
havior. He made complaint, received
an official apology from this govern
/ ment, and secured the dismissal of tho
| policeman who had arrested him. Thi.
was such palpable injustice to goo6
officer that the secretary of state, Mr.
Seward, appointed the officer as hi.
special doorkeeper; SO that whenevel
that foreigner called at the department
OF state to see Secretary Seward, he wa.
obligedto meet the ex-police man, who
carried his card to the secretary O.
state, and afterwards admitted him.
| As | said before, however, thes,
favored foreigners seldom violate o.
defy the laws Of our land. They ar,
gentle men, and her sfore gentlemen.
