outbreak of the war between Texas and
 Mexico. was in Santa Fe, N. M. A party of dozen or more were shooting at target with rifles, when stranger rode up, threw his leg across the pom mel of his saddle and watched the sport. He had long rifle strapped across the back of his saddle, one of those old fashioned affairs heavily ornamented with silver. He was inclined to criticise the shooting. and was invited to set the pace. He replied that he never throwed away any ammunition, but that if they " ,uld put up their crack shot he would shoot with him for ten Mexican dollars
 "The crowd agreed and the stranger unslung his gingerbread gum as his opponent dubbed it. Perhaps y'd like t raise the bet?' said the stranger, as he ambled up to the crowd. It was doubled, then trebled. He then offered to bet his gun against that of his oppo- nent. The wager was accepted, and the stranger brought his rife to his shoul- der
 'The muzzle 'wobbled' badly, and some one cried out that he was going to shoot circle around the target. The stranger lowered his gun and offered to wager his horse against forty Mexican dollars on the result. His proposition was promptly accepted and he once more brought his gingerbread gun to his shoulder. But it did not 'wobble' this time. He put bullet in the exact center of the target, then shot two more through the same hole, winning easily. As he rode off with the spells some one cried out, asking his name. 'Davy Crockett, came the reply, and the party adjourned to the nearest saloon with out another word"

TOO NARROW. Says the Late Tax Col lector of Tombstone. Was the Action of the
 Last Legislature,
Bv Which the Complainant was
 Deprived of a Job.
Two Interesting Legal Features Of a Case Argued In Supreme
 Court Yesterday.

An interesting case from Q legal point
 of view was argued in supreme court
 yesterday and submitted. It was the
 matter of Geo. Bravin appellant, vs the
 City of Tombstone, the Mayor, Council
 and Chief of Police of that town. The appellant was represented by Judge Barnes of Tucson and the appellee by Attorney General Herring. Bravin was tax collector of Tombstone at the time of the passage Of an act Of the legislature consolidating, in towns hay ing a certain voting population, say of 600, of the offices of tax collector and Chief of Police. At the time the act went into effect Bravin had served only half his term and he accordingly brought suit against city the gov ernment and the Chief of Police to re- cover certain emoluments of his office which would have accrued to him in the event of his having been permitted to serve out his term. The case was tried in the Graham county court and judgment was renered against him. An appeal was taken.
 The ground taken by Judge Barnes in his argument is that the terms of the legislative act merging the two offices were improper and that the act itself was species of class legislation pro- yided against by the Harrison act of 1886. and a part of the organic laws of the territory. Inasmuch as the act of the legislature designated the number of the voting population of towns to which it should apply, and as Tomb stone was the only one to which it did apply. the act was therefore legislation applicable only to the town of Tomb stone.
 Another objection urged against the legislative act is pecuiarity of 1 phraseology which strengthens the al- legation that it is class legislation. In | fixing its applicability Co towns it de- | scribes those which cast a certain num- ! Der of votes at the "last election" | The appellant contends that whatever may be the number of votes cast by | any town at any election subsequent to the passage of that measure, such town | could not come under the law unless it | cast the prescribed number of votes at that particular election. Tom hstone was the only town which had at that time such a voting population and | hence Tombstone is the only town to which the law can ever be applied. Thus Tombstone was not only the only town in the territory affected by the act, but the only one which by any pos sibIily can be affected by it.

primer, projectile and powder combined so that the loading is performed in one operation, just as rife or shotgun is loaded. The breech mechanism is op- erated by levers in very expeditions manner.
 The gun Is usually mounted as shown in Fig. 1, and has stock projecting back from the breech, as illustrated, which is held by the gunner against his shoulder while aimed, just as rifle is held. The special purpose of such ord nance is to protect vessel from the att tack of swift torpedo boats. which move so rapidly that they are difficult to hit with guns requiring more time to train on an object. Moreover, they are very useful in destroying the unpro- tected ends of an ironclad, and all parts of a vessel which is not armored.
 The first guns of this type used in the United States were made under the Hotchlsiss patents for the Boston. At lanta and Dolphin. In all ninety-four have been made of this type by the Pratt & Whitney Company at Hartford, Conn. Two heutenants in the navy, W. II. Driggs and Seaton Schroeder, thought they could improve on the Hotehkiss gun, and about four years ago they manufactured an arm, which, in its improved form, is now admitted to be one of the marvels of ordnance.
 The popularity of the Driggs- Schroeder gun has been remarkable from the first; 75 of finch caliber are building at the Washington navy yard, and 50 more are ordered; I of 3.2-inch caliber is building at the Watervliet arsenal for the army; le0 of 2.24-inch caliber, 10 of 1.s5-inch calibcr and 15 of 1.46-inch caliber are building at Colts armory in Hartford for the army ard navy. The largest of these throws q projectile weighing 36 pounds. and the smallest one of pounds They are made of the finest quality of steel which can be produced, having at iile strength of 90,0O0 to 135, ,000 pounds.
 The length of these guns is always just forty-five times their caliber. They consist of a long steel tube over which s red-hot jacket is fitted, and then al-

EVANSTON, H.. June IA. 1892.
 This certities that heard Miss Addie Murphy read last evening, and thorgh have had wide experience in listening to elocutionary artists, l think she stands in the very first ranK by reason of her noble simplicity, sincerity. grace and good feeling. She has a melodious voice, admirably trained, and great variety of repertoire, sustaining herself equally well in all her roles, ranging from "grave to gay, from lively to severe" Best of all, one feels that in Miss Murphy we have loyal, earnest hearted woman as well as artist.
 l congratulate my honored friend, Prof. Robert Cumnock, on an assistant so capable, and the young people under her care on teacher so rare.

nnn,n RsxieM OF Trade.

New YORK, March 3.-R. G. Dun &
Co 8 weekly review of trade:
The great feature of the past fort
night has been the unusual demand for
money from the West and South, which
has drawn large sums from New York,
and photographed reports show that
while money is light st only one or two
small points, it is fairly steady at
others.
Philadelphia reports excellent pros
poets for lumber. Trade In paints, oils,
glass and naval stores, quiet
PittSburg reports better trade in iron
with good demand for finished products
and very fair prospects for hardware.
At Cleveland trade is fairly good, the
rolling mills full of orders.
Speculative markets have waited for
developments. The defeat Of the anti
option bill was followed by an improve
ment in grain.
In the iron business consumption is
enormous, but production relatively
greater and concessions are frequent
for pig, not OF the best grades while bar
is at the lowest point ever known, plates
are demOralized though the mills are
busy and structural works are quite
well employed. In general the indus
trial production has never been sur
passed at this season.
The business failures number PSI as
compared with total OF $50 last week.

hope that the men of 'the family may

q very strong spirit OF rebeliious curios-
ity in all women. They you'd like TO
know what the men would do about II

the women in that State have written

suppression of the hoop, but | believe
II was squelched. The New York
woman is a law TO herself, and If she
wants hoops not even q bull from the
Pope would stop her wearing them.
gave up one entire day this week to
hunting for q store where they sell
hoops, bat found none, not single
one. Some, even good many, OF the
dressmakers sew Steels in dresses OF
certain forms, but the English, German
and American dreSsmakers are greatly
opposed to hoops, and il remains to be
seen whether these three nations will
be stronger than France, or she strong
er than they.
If the newspapers would only eXer-
else a little self-denial and refrain from
talking about them. and the "men
folks" from forbidding their women

spice in hoops for women, and really
all that we want is 10 be permitted TO

are willing TO be led providing IL is done

The present styles in the form Of

CLEAN of hope that hoops will at least
not become universal. How pretty and

Whooping cough has been uncomfort-

In one family up town three children
were afflicted with that ailment at one
time. They coughed and coughed and
coughed, ard the family pet, an intelli-
gent parrot, took it into his head to i'm
itate them. Whenever any one of the
children coughed he would accompany
IL with coughing paroxysm so natural
that it was impossible to tell whether it
was one OF the children or the parrot
coughing. The bird seemed to enjoy
having the whOoping cough, and after
awhile ne clamored for medicine whom
ever he saw that II was being admins
