Charming Summer Resort.

That charming Summer resort OF the
cowboys, Dodge City, Kas., is not very
hospitable to temperance reformers,
says the Globe Democrat. Two wish
tors OF said class arrived there the
other day armed with authority from
the Attorney-G General OF the State to
prosecute the whisky-sellers Of that To-
cality under the prohibitory liquor
law, and they were allowed to remain
in town only until the arrival of the
next train. Dodge City is the place,
il will be remembered, where a purse
was raised soon after the passage Of
the law in question and deposited with
the local banker +" for the benefit Of
the widow OF the first id scoun-
drel who makes complaint against a
saloon"

The jury in the Lewis case is n
OF the most remarkable ever impan-
eled, as far as the age and habits Of
the jurors are concerned. They are all
young men, an average OF the entire
twelve being only 81 years. But the
most curious facts are that all Of them
are total abstainers from liquor, and
there isn't a cigarette fiend in the lot.
None of them chew tobacco or even
swore before in their lives until they
took the oath as Jurors. Where can be
found another such collection OF moral
Young men?-Silver State.

Taxing

The movement in Canada to tax
bachelors in order to reduce their

it is stated that the Quebec Govern

OF grave consideration. A similar
social condition exists in several OF the
newer Western States, but in these

Milo, the famous athlete of ancient
Greece, the man who was victor at
both the Olympic and Pythian games
for six different times in succession,
and whose chief claim to fame rests
upon the feat OF running four miles
with a 3-year-old OK upon his Shout
ders, would hide his head with shame
could he visit London and witness the
wonderful feats performed by Sullivan,
the modern Samson. Sullivan is only
81 years Of age and weighs but les
pounds, yet be is a physical giant
without an equal in the known world.
He regularly goes through a routine OF
feats illustrative Of his wonderful
strength, the most remarkable being
the actual lifting OF an elephant with
his teeth. The elephant is not a
Jumbo, to be sure, neither is he small,
especially when you come to consider
the size Of the man who does the lift
ing and the usual dimensions and
strength of human teeth. The ele-
plant daily and nightly swung like a
pendulum from Mr.. Sullivan's teeth is
known as " the infant" and weighs
between 1900 and 1000 pounds. This
remarkable strong man is probably
the only one in the world who lifts
more than 1000 pounds with the teeth
alone. Another favorite trick Of his is
that Of lifting a barrel of water 1866
pounds) with one finger.

WOMEN OF rRnIrABL. TEMPER.

tits like living in o den d snarling
animals to live with a person who
has this sort Of temper, writes Ella
Wheeler Wilcox in an article on
1.-THE Destroyers Of Domestic Edens,"
in the Ladies' Home Journal. Many
an Eden is destroyed by it. while the
possessor prides himself upon being q
good Christian, and doing his whole
duty by bis family. Yet, If the soup
lacks a little salt, or contains a little
too much pepper, il a meal is q mo-
ment delayed, if a child is noisy in its
myth, il q drawer sticks, or q door
slams, or q chair creaks, each trife
calls forth an exhibition of disagree
able temper, which ruins the comfort
and peace Of the household for an
hour. Many a woman is addicted to
this sort Of temper and calls it her
nerves." and considers herself the
most devoted wife and mother in the
world. Yet if she is obliged to delay
her dinner for any member of the
family, il she is called from one task
to perform another, il the children
scatter their playthings, or leave their
schooibooks in the parlor, she INDUCES
in such petulant scolding that a gloom
settles aver the whole household. She
would consider it no more difficult
thing to die for that household, if it
were demanded OF her. And so the
Eden is destroyed, and the children
grow up egar to get out of the home
where everything is uncomfortable,
and the parents wonder why all their
sacrifices are so poorly appreciated,
why their children, for whom they
have toiled and saved, seem to care SO
little about their home, and why they
seem SO anxious to seek pleasures else
where.

COMPENSATION FOR WILEY.
The Supreme Court Temporarily Re-
strains Judge Hebbard.

The Supreme Court sat in bank yester-
day to hear arguments in the case Of the
Pacific Bank VS.. The Superior Court.
This was an application made on behalf
of the bank directors for writ of prohibit
ton restraining Judge Hebbard ana Gen
eral Il. l. Wiley, the temporary receiver,
from proceeding with the winding up of
the concern. Messrs. Dunno and McPike
represented the bank directors in the
matter.
When the case was called up. however.
Attorney w. T. Baggett, representing
General Wiley, addressed the court and
stated that as Judge Hebbard had issued
an order the other day removing Wiley
from office and putting the Bank Com
missioners in as receivers under the recent
decision OF the Supreme Court, he (Attor-
ney Baggett) thought there was nothing
before the court worthy of argument.
2. T. Dunno, as attorney for the bank
directors, thought otherwise. de sad
there was some question concerning the
compensate to be paid 10 Wiley Tor his
services during the twenty days he held
Office. and that that question was soon to
be decided by JIdge Hebbard. Counsel
maintained that Wiley was not entitled
TO anY COMPENSATION whatever, and he was
prepared to argue that point forthwith on
a motion to restrain Superior Judge Heb
bard from granting such compensation.
The Supreme Court declined to hear
arguments upon this point for the present,
but ordered the motion 10 be set for argu-
ment on the pext motion day, December A..
In the meantime an order would be made
restraining the Superior Court from de-
Gliding any question Of compensation to be
