delighted, and the encouragement have re-
ceived during the short time, have been
here, has been far beyond my expectation.
Some of the more daring physicians went so
far as to try to make some of my clients be-
lieve that in case I should need to consult
with another physician, that none here would
consult with me. If that is the case, which
doubt very much, for there ought to be
some, physicians in this town, OUT OF THE
LARGE SUPPLY we have, who would have
enough humanity in them to assist his suffer
ing fellow being, even if he.had to consult
with myself, but I say if should he mis-
taken, in my good opinion of some of the
physicians of this place, then let the people
who have already favored me, and those
who may patronize me. hereafter, know that
in-case Ihave to. consult with a physician I
can do so with one of the leading physicians
of CaIencFo. who can be summoned here in a
very short time by telegraph, and also with
one of the leading physicians in Breaux

ment against me also falls to the ground.
No, the people to-day are too we'll posted

Now, in conclusion I shall add that any
physician who does not like my ways should
not go behind my back to do his evil work;
but let him come to me and shall give him

into her captor's face with an exultant
smile.
Stetson brought her back to the
cabin and in half-shamed way
told his story. The woman was quiet and
did not seem TO hear what they said.
Despite their chagrin at having been
worstsd by woman, the men could not
bu; admire her pluck and skill Then
they argued as to what they should do
with her. and finally decided to take her
into town as soon rs il was light. They
locked her in the cabin and sat up and
talked the rest OF the night. They felt
that il would be useless to attempt to trail
Craig in the dark, and, to tell the truth,
they were Just q bit fearful that the woman
would escape them unless they kept q
sharp lookout
When morning came big party set off
in pursuit Of Craig. But they had scant
hopes of overtaking him with horse un-
der him and his many hours start. Tho
Fasteners wife still remained locked in
the cabin. Sage Bar for once found itself
nonpluseed. Law and order had been re-
versed by woman, and the town had the
offender IN custody. But smoke and pom
der as it might, Sage Bar was at q loss how

ment. unwritten though they were, had
sprung from an acute sense of frontier
needs, and referred to men. There was
an undefnable feeling among the Sage
Bar solons that these laws could not be
applied with propriety to women, and
so they talked much. smoked and drank
much more and did-nothinR. When
the Hines party came in tired, hungry and
empty-h0nded. no solution of the diff
Guilty presented itself, and so with admir-
able judgment the town decided to free
itself OF further responsibility by setting
the woman a. liberty. The Easterner's
wife was pale and evidently worn out
when they brought her out of the cabin /;
but she said not word when they told
her she might 90, and walked off in the
direction OF her home with a smile half of
defiance, half OF satisfaction. That night
the party which had gone in pursuit of
Craig returned, having made a iruitless
search.
Two days later, Just as Sage Bar was
preparing it's evening meal, two men were
seen riding over a swell from the north
east. Five horses were driven loosely be-
fore them. When the men cot nearer the
town one of them was recognized as the
Fastener. He was riding bsreheaded,
and beside him rode another, dark and
swarthy, HE arms bound TO his sides, his
horse led by Craig. All Sage Bar assem-
bled about the party while Craig told the
story OF how he had ridden away that
night. had struck the trail of the horses
and following it had brought the Mexican
thief TO terms with shot from his rife

TWENTY GIRLS MAKE The DRAGON.
Startling Stage Realism Ingeniously Made
of Harmless Material.
Boston Herald

There are, indeed, tricks in all trades,
and, as theatrical business has become
more or less OF trade. it follows that it
has its tricks. In Ali Bahia" the big
spectacle which will be presented by the
American extravaganza company at the
Globe thsater on Monday night. there ap-
pears at a gwen hour something which
makes man who has been drinking feel
queer, while the prohibition contingent
look at it with horror and then with de-
light. This is the snake, or, as il is billed,
the dragon. and 1t is forty feet long. 1t is
a very ingenious affair, and was made in
Paris by NJ. Ganet. the master OF proper
ties of the Chate ct theater
The BODY of the reptile ia nothing more
nor less than twenty young women who
travel on ali tours, and who, at the right
moment and a given signal, jump up and
reveal themselves as dlabOlical spirits.
They are clad in gray tights and green
bodices, and on their heads are little
horned skuil caps. The article OF attire
that gives TO each the appearances OF por-
ton of the serpenfs body. and which,
when the twenty girls creep along in fol-
low-the-leader fashion, makes a wriggling,
creeping snake of monstrous size, is a
satin-lned cloak OF thin canvas which is
roughly painted and notified in green,
yellow, and white to represent the scales
Of a reptiles hide.
The aweinspirinR, bird-like head, with
rolling, CHASTITY eyeballs and crocodile jaws
serrated with rows OF cruel, sharp teeth, is
saic to be the most ingenious part of the
affair. 1t is made of papier msche and
wicker work. light enough for q boy 70
carry, and with devices inside to move the
jaws and eyes
The eyes are swung on a pivot and
worked by means of a spiral spring. The
huge jaws are hinged, and a stout lever
inside, with the aid OF little muscle.
makes them snap and yawn ferociously.
Each nostril is shaped like the crater of a
volcano, and the aperture from which the
molten lava would come is replaced by a
little alcohol lamp, the faint, blue flame OF
which cannot be seen from beyond the
footlights over each of these lamps the
fan-shaped mouth of long tube comes
About six inches from the lamp and con-
nected with the tube is a receptacle for
lycopodium. When the boy who manip-
ulates the apparatus concludes that it il
proper for the dragon 20 make an i'm DOS
ing display OF its ferocity he blows through
the tube, the powdered club-mOss seed il
scattered over the alcohol flame and makes
& CHASTITY blush and altogether startling
flash.

How and Where the Members of the So
preme Court Spend Their Vacations.
Especial Correspondence
WASHINGTON, June 8.-With the rem
dering of the decision in the Chinese ex-
clusion case the supreme court of the
United States went into it's annual sum-
mer vacation, and those justices who
could do SO made haste to get out of
town. Justice Gray and Justice Field
were obliged to stay here, even if they
had desired to get away, for each is
purist in language, and the former had
not in final shape the opinion of the
court on the Chinese case, while the lat
ter still saw possibilities of increasing
the virility of his vigorous dissent from
the conclusions of the majority.
Most persons would think a position
in which vacation from the latter part
Of May till early October was part Of
the regular routine would be in common
parlance 'a snap" Yet no one who has
ever known justice of the United
States supreme court intimately would
ever think of alluding to him as in the
enjoyment of that luxury. There are
no harder workers in Washington. For
tunately the labors of the justices are
steady and unexciting. By system and
method each justice is enabled to get
through a great deal of work with the
least possible wear and tear. Thus
there is presented the spectacle of men,
all past middle age and others past 10,
keeping up good pace in the business
of life.
Although the supreme court is in va
cation, this does not mean that the JUS
tees are off the bench and their judicial
labors ended for the term. Under the
law each justice must travel on his cir
cult at least once every two years, sit
ting with the circuit and district court
judges. This year every one of the JUS
tices, save possibly Justice Field and
Justice Harlan, who is adding to the
high standard of the American courts by
his presence as one of the arbitrators on
the part of the United States in the
Behring sea arbitration in Paris, will go
on circuit. The newly created circuit
courts Of appeals will generally meet
this month, and the Justices will sit with
the judges of inferior courts.
This duty of travelling on circuit is a
serious burden on the poorer members
of the court. Their salaries are $4,000
a year, with an added $500 for the chief
justice, it is true, but all of them have
families, and their official positions i'm
pose social obligations on THAN that
comport better with big fat rent roll
than even a good sized salary. No al
lowance is made for travelling expenses,
and railroad fares and other costs must
come out of the salary.

From Our Regular Correspondent
Sc Bridgton village schools closed this
week. The high school graduation will
occur Friday afternoon at the Congrega-
tional church and the class reception at
Gibbs hall Friday evening.
A concert will be given Thursday even
ing at the church by the Ariel Quartette
of Boston, under the auspices of the
class Of '93. The graduating class this
year is somewhat smaller than usual,
having but five member viz:-Leon
March, Hortense Wales, Edith Bennett.
Georgia Scribner and Jessie Murphy.
Mr.. March and Miss Wales took college
entrance examinations Friday and Satur-
day.
The recent timely showers in this
vicinity keep vegetation fairly booming;
grass is looking very well indeed.
W. M. Staples, A. FL. Hartman, F. P.
Bennett and DR.. Mitchell with their
wives spent last week trouting at Cold
River arriving home Saturday afternoon.
There is considerable building and a
large amount of repairing going on in
this village the present season rand we
hope to see still more of it.
The report that the lake steamer is to
run this year is welcome one to Bridg
ton people generally, as it adds much to
the attractions of the place as summer
resort.

'~N<N<S~~~AA>1SA1
All the members of the court are now
out of the city except Justice Field. Not
withstanding his " years, he keeps stead
lily busy at one thing or another. No
more stubborn man ever lived, and
whether he goes or not depends on the
family making him think he is having
his way while they have theirs.
The Worlds fair has broken up the
plans of the justices for spending the
summer, and most of them will not set
tie down in one place, as in former sea-
sons. Chief Justice Fuller has gone to
Chicago. He will hold court in this cir
cult as substitute for Justice Harlan
and will entertain number of visitors
to the Worlds fair at his pretty home
on Lake street in Chicago, South Side.
Justices Brown and Brewer each went
to Chicago almost as soon as the court
adjourned. Justice Brown will hold
court in Cincinnati and will be in De-
troit considerable part of the summer
months, though he may occasionally
come here to inspect the building of his
big home on Sixteenth street. Justice
Brewer will sit on the court Of appeals
in Kansas City and has in view quiet
season at the seashore. He is not anx-
ious to let his whereabouts be known.
No justice is more pestered for writs
than Mr.. Brewer, and he wants respite
from the attorneys who constantly seek
his Intervention.
Justice Blatchford has closed up his K
street residence and gone to New York.
He will work there. AS he is one of the
wealthy members of the bench, through
good investments in stocks, bonds and
real property, no financial considerations
need limit his selections for an outing.
Justice jackson has been holding court
in Georgia, hearing argument in the
Georgia Central litigation. From the re-
ports he is, as usual, hitting the Rich
mond Terminal people one day, and the
next day giving the Hollins syndicate a
sharp rap. Tt used to be said in Louis
vile that no man could tell from the
hearing how Judge jackson would de-
eide case, as he always found some
cause to sharply admonish each side and
then patiently listened and came to
conclusion unaided. He will spend the
summer at Bellevue, Tenn, after hold
ing'court again in Georgia and in Nash
vile.
Justice Shiras could not get to ALLIE
ghany City quickly enough after ad-
journment and left the day after court
ceased. Justice Gray will spend most
of his time around Boston. He will
doubtless camp out week or two. On
the bench he is the grummest and most
irritable of the justices, but Mr.. Whar-
ton, who was assistant secretary of state
under Mr.. Blaine, says that no more de-
ightful companion for camping trip
can be found than the giant justice from
Massachusetts,. G. Fl. MERILLAT.
