sHREWD BARNEY BleLIN.
1t Was Politics For Him Not to Know Ex-
Judge Dittenhoefer.

Judge Dittenhoefer.
Most of the stories worth printing
about the famous Chicago convention of
1880 have been published, but here is one
that seems to be new: Ex-Judge Often
hoefer was in Chicago working against
Grant and third term Bernard Big
lin was there in the interest of Grant.
Both were old personal friends. The
night before the balloting began Biglin
and two others were appointed a com
mittee to look after several southern
delegations, among them being the Ken
lucky delegation.
When Biglin and his associates ar
rived at the Kentucky headquarters, they
found that Dittenhoefer had got ahead
of them He had the floor and was de-
livering a strong speech against Grant,
saying, among other things, that Grant
could not carry New York Biglin saw
that Dittenhoefers remarks were having
great weight, and he realized that he
was no match for him as talker. What
to do to break the force of Dittenhoefers
speech was the problem that confronted
Biglin. This was the method he Sc
lected. In the midst of Dittenhoefer's
peroration Biglin called out in loud
voice, "Who is that manY'
"Why, he is ex-Judge Dittenhoefer of
New York" said member of the Ken
lucky delegation.
"Oh, no; that's not Judge Dittenhoe-
fer" sail Biglin. Il know Judge Often
hoefer well. This man may pretend to
be Dittenhoefer to strangers, but he
knows better than to try to work any
such racket with New Workers. / tell
you he's fraud"
Biglin's remarks made a sensation.
Suspicious glances were cast at Often
hoefer by members of the Kentucky del
egation. The former got red in the face
and walked up to Biglin. Barney" he
said, holding out his hand, "that's a
pretty good joke of yours, not to know
me-"
"Joke," shouted Biglin in contempt.
cts no joke, can tell you. l will just
bet you $50 that you are not Judge Dit
tenhoefer of New York" Biglin -four
ished $50 bill in Dittenhoefer's face.
! Of course he had to accept the chal-
lenge. The money was put up in the
hands of a member of the delegation.
Dittenhoefer hurried away to get some
one to identify him. When he returned,
Biglin had disappeared, likewise the
stakeholder. After the convention Dit
tenhoefer met Biglin in the hotel corri-
dor. What did you mean" he said,
"by saying yoa did not know me that
night at the Kentucky headquarters"
what did you mean," said Biglin,
"by saying that Grant could not carry
New York;"
"That was politics" answered Often
hoefer.
"Well," said Biglin, lit was politics
my not knowing YOU"
Dittenhoefer and Biglin are still
friends. York Press.

During the middle ages the botanists, or
old "herbalists," gave currency to many
curious stories concerning the growth,
form, etc, of mandrake or May apple,
which finally resulted in its being given
the name of "gallows plant" The pseudo
scientists Of that time declared that man
drake would grow in no other place ex-
cept upon which some terrible crime had
been committed. The roots were for
merly supposed to bear strong resem-
blance to the human form and are fig

IT'S USELESS TO REGRET.

We've done the best we could, my dear.
There's nothing to regret.
Views taught the children many truths
On which our hearts were set.
And If against our old time ways
They foolishly protest
We never need regret, my dear,
That we have done our best.
There's many plan that's come to naught,
There's many light gone out,
And disappointments, griefs and cares
Have hedged us roundabout,
And many sad mistake we've made
Throughout our lives, and yet
We've done the very best we could
IT'S useless to regret.
For out Of evil good has come,
And out of darkness light,
And all wrongdoing in this world
Some day win be set right,
And thoughwe have not reached the height
Attained by others, yet
We've done the best we could, my dear
TITS useless to regret.
We've tried to live like honest folks,
To do our duty well,
'Gainst evil things to take our stand,
In goodness to excel.
So Judge yourself not harshly, dear,
Nor at misfortunes fret.
We've done the best we could, and so
IT'S useless to regret.

The vanity of SPARROW.

A correspondent informs the London
Spectator that his daughter writes to
him from Bangalore that she is "obliged
to cover up her looking glass with a
towel, for the sparrows come in, sit on
the frame and tap at themselves, making
on both glass and dressing table horrid
mess. At first the towel kept them
away, but they were always ON the
watch, and if any one threw back the
towel they would be there in a minute
But now they hold back the towel with
one claw, hold themselves on with the
other and peck away at their images"

reported. This time the scene Of diff
Guilty is laid four miles west of the
ranch of Robert Logan, in the Muddy
and about 100 miles from here. Re-
ports of almost fabulously rich finds
reached town last Friday and quite a
number of our towsmen have left for
the new diggings. It is called the
Riley district, from the fact that a
prospector by that name has been
working there for some time. The
surface there is a hard gravel cement,
gold quartz being found below the
cement, which differs in places in
thickness. High assays are reported,
and a rush from Southern Utah and
Northern Arizona has already set in.
Later advices from the same paper
say the excitement was fraud.
