\ Plucky Pandy.

After the nan had laid apparently
dead for about an hour some one poticed
that he had gradually dragged himself
out of the water, till all at once he
sprung to his feet and ran like a deer
In he direction of the gate OF the
Badshahibagh. He was still quite with
in easy range and several rifles were
leveied at him, but Sergt. Findlay, who
was OF the rampant and was himself one
OF the best shots in the company, called
out: Don't fire, men; give the poor
devil n chancei"
Instead of a vOlley Of bullets the mems
better feelings gained the day and Jack
Pandy was r%eprieyed. with IA cheer TO
speed him on his way. As soon as he
heard it he realized his position. and,
like the Samaritan ieper of old, he
halted, turned around and. putting up
both his hands, with the palms togeth-
er, in front of his face, be salaamed pro-
foundly. p%rostrating himself three times
IN the ground by way OF thanks, and
then walked slowly toward the Bad
shahibagh, while we on the ramparts
waved our feather bonnets and clapped
our hands to him in token of good will.

KILLED BY a PITCHER.
An Ola Hall Player shoots = Notorious
Tough.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July co.
Charlie Sweeney, once a great base ball
pitcher, yesterday shot and killed Con
McManus, a notorious local tough, in
4 saloon row. McManus, who is a
powerful man, beat Sweeney, who
threatened to shoot him. He attacked
he ex-base bail player a second time,
when Sweeney fired three shots at Nc
Manus, two of them taking effect.
sweeney surrendered TO the police.
At II time Sweeney was reckoned
as the best base ball pitcher in the
country. He pitched for Providence
when the team from that city won the
National league championship, and
.ater filed the box for Henry Lucas
st. Louis Silkstocking Maroons. His
irm gave out and his usefulness as n
pitcher being gone, Sweeney returned
20 California. For a time he played
N the local league here. then
became "a special policeman, and
had his star taken from him by the
chief of police. Lately he has been
acting as a sort of b~odyguard To Frank
McNianus. q saloon keeper, and brother

Of the murder charge he will probably
be killed by Frank MeManus, as the
after. WHO is a notorious fighter. has
sworn to avenge his brothers death.

INCREASE OF THE ARMY.
Not Much Likely to Result From Recent

NOT Much Likely to Result From Recent
Agitation OF the Subject.
WASHINGTON, July 20.-"Now that
the trouble in Chicago is about over, |
presume that this talk abont an in
crease of the army will die out" said
an army officer. People are likely to
forget that the danger may arise again
Mt any time when the regular army
will be called on as IL has been within
the past few weeks. There Is one
thing that - not often taken into
account when we think of how our
forces are scattered throughout the
country and hat is, the cost of mobili-
cation at any particular point at a
given time. Compared with European
nations, the distances from which
troops must be taken when they are
needed are something startling and the
cost is larger than one would think.
In the case of the infantry it Is not so
bad, but when il comes to carrying
horses and guns Of n battery, il Is alto
gether IA different matter. Railroads
generally look upon the government
as something from which they must
get all the assistance they need, yet
get ali they possibly can whenever
they have n chance. You cannot get
many horses into a freight a and
when you take the guns of the battery
they have To go on trucks. OF course
they have To go through on express
time and express rates are charged in
full"

CHAPTER VIII.
IN THE JAWS OF DEATH.


The scene presented an hour or two
later on the really capital ice placed at
the general disposal was animated and
striking in the extreme. The snow
cleared of the lake had been piled up
round the margin in Enthusiastically
shaped mounds, wherein great braziers
with admirable effect. The moon
shone clear and bright In a cloudless
sky. and on either side the lake the
background of leafess trees and shad-
owy bosket framed Il picture calculated
to recall sketches of winter in the Can
aaiau woods or Christmas on the Ne
va.
But those were undeniably English
forms-stalwart men and lissomS maids
who SKINNED the frozen surface with
q grace and celebrity purely jnsular: for
ceTfes, our British fair ones have q
stately carriage and Syelte movement
peculiar TO then . Ives. rs they bend
hitler, thither. upon the cleaning
blades. swaying like reeds in the wintry
blast, whilst each sturdy unit Of the
sterner sex pursues the even tenor Of
his way-even upon his Acmes-with a
stolid dignity and strength Of purpose
which foreign caperers seldom emu
late.
The gathering proved but small
twenty souls. perhaps. all told; and
Dick. fresh from the limitless acres Of
Hendon, the Long water, and the Ser
pentine, soon began TO weary Of the
somewhat monotonous sport of ''fol-
lowing his nose' in a straight line. half
a mile up, half a mile down; for though
at u point the lake diyerged, and cut
up in a narrow strait some distance
among the trees, yet the ice was held
too sheltered In such reconcile regions
to be altogether safe, despite the rigor
of the frost.
So any advance IN this direction was
strictly tabooed. Keep to the right
skating up; keep to the left skating
Notwithstanding only i'm the centre
of the pond" Such was the tenor Of
Tie injnnctions laid upon each guest.

Mr.. DANA story.

The late Richard p. Dana was fond of
good stories. There Is one he told a
short time before his death, In reply to
q question as TO what vas the strongest
negative he had ever heard.
Il was in Kobe, Japan, many years
ago." he said, and ran short Of ready
money. had a draft for az, 000. how
ever, and 1 went to an English banking
house to get it cashed.
"'How much win you charge me to
cash this draftr l asked.
The cashier figured and named the
cost.
~'That il rather high I suggested,
and tried to persuade him TO reduce his
price.
"'What are you willing to paye' he
finally asked.
Nothing, If can avoid it, / replied.
The cashier looked me over from
head to foot. then pushed the draft
slowly toward me, remarking:
"'Sir, we do nothing for nothing for
nobody here"

A TRIBUTE TO COOKERY.
The Washington Post Commends the
Congrcssnan's Reforms.

1873 f4fb
WAsHfSGroS. July 20. - Notwith-
standing the violent self preservation
oppsition OF all departmental Washing
ton and the sympathetic corporation
OF the remainder OF the city dependent
upon the first half for trade patronage,
the Washington Post Is compelled In
the following editorial 70 pay we'll de-
deserved tribute to a distinguished Mis-
sourian. IL may be added that the
other papers Of the district, pandering
to the indubitable district sentiment on
tine subject, have attacked the reform
with an extravaganza that was ridic-
ulous mud with viciousness that fully
betrayed it's venal motives:
lion Alexander NJ. Dockery OF Mis-
souri, Is TO De congratulated upon the
successful termination Of the movement
to reorganize the executive departments
OF the government. lie has had able
and enthusiastic conductors, TO be sure,
whose part In the work has been well
performed and is deserving Of
datioD. but IL Is no secret hat Nj.
Dockery has been the moving spirit of
the enterprise, and ina 10 his intelli-
gent application much of the result is
due. lie bad made a study Of the SUBJ
Jcct, had acquainted himself with the
causes OF obstruction and delay in the
transaction of business, and it was his
thorough acquaintance with the faults
Of the existing system aud his fixed de-
termination to- remove them that fur
nished most of the stimulus and inspi-
ration of the reform.
The new scheme was adopted by tho
senate on Saturday last. Mr.. sherman
opposed 1t, but with very scant success.
and so the government is to have the
beneht OF n better, more expeditions
and more bnsinesslike system of ac-
counts-a system in harmony with the
enlightened and progressive spirit OF
The age and II that makes "a welcome
departure from the cuInbrous, obsolete
and complicated methods OF the past.
The result will be a very considerable
saving in expense and an infinite irn-
provement insofar as concerns accuracy,
precision and promrtitude liz dispatch
ing business
AS we say. Mr.. Docisery has been
especially conspicuous in originating
and promoting this most admirable
movement and it were less than Justice
to withhold full mention and ON
inendation Of his prominence"
