JAYRAWKER'S SUIT.
AGAINST THE WATER COMPANY
HEARD YESTERDAY. .
He Was to Receive One-third Inter
est and $15,OOo-Judge Van Dyke
Takes the Matter Under
AdvIsement.

The case of Woodland vs.. the City
Water company came up before Judge
Van DYKE for hearing yesterday.
Woodland, known in this city and else
where as "Jayhawker," seeks to enjoin
the water company from disposing Of
their plant, alleging that by reason OF
contract between Messrs. PIERCE and
Shaffer and himself, he was to become
the owner of one third intere ct in the
plant, in the event of their purchasing
the said plant, and was aleo to receive
SIS 900 for selling his option on the
same.
The water company claimed yesterday
that they had nothing to do with any
contracts between Woodland, Peirce and
Shaffer, and that on that account they
should not be enjoiped from disposing
OF their plant, because of any d sagree-
ments between the above named gentle
men. 1t WAS true that Messrs. Peirce
and Shaffer are insolvent, and unable to
pay the balance of the purchase money
agreed on for the stock OF the company,
Woodland must also be ineolvent, and
they should not be prevented from max
ing any advantageous disposal of tine
property should such an opportunity
occur.
Judge Van Dyke took the matter I'M
der advisement.

How a Porcupine Fights a Snake.

Several years ago | was an interest

hedgehog and a huge blacl;snake, - said
W. d. Ingraham Of Memphis. Icame
upon the scene just as the hedgehog be-
gan the attack upon the snake, which
was lying stretched out on the road
asleep. The hog advanced cautiously
upon the reptile and seized lis tail IN
its mouth, giving tia sharp bite. Then
he quickly withdrew a few feet, and
rolling himself into a compact, spny
ball awaited developments. The snake,
upon being thus rudcly awakened,
turned in great fury upon its antaSo-
MIST, striking the hog again and again
with its tangs The willy hedgehog So
curclv intrenchcd within It's spiuy az
NOR remained perfectly motionless all
the while, allowing the snake to keep
up his attack. At every stroke the
Jaws Of the snake would become filled
with the spines until, at last, exhausted
and bleeding from dozens Of wounds
caused by the needlelke spmes Of the
hog, the snake gave up the battle. This
was evidently what the hedgehog was
waidng for, as he immediately proceed
ed to roll over the snake again and
again until he had completely disem-
boweled his victim.

The Cunning Ermine.

The emmiuc is a queer animal; 1t Is
one thing in winter and another thing
in summer That is a strange state
ment, but it is true, for in winter the
animals fur is as white as snow and
it is called the crmine. In summer
its fur turns reddish brown of the
upper part Of the body and light
yellow on the lower part the animal
is then known as the stoat.
This change is quite familiar to nat
uralists, but not to unscientifc people
and the ermine and the stoat are there
fore generally regarded as distinct
animals
The fur ofthe eymineis much valued
and is in great request. At one time
it was mark Of royalty, and the
state robes of Judges and magistrates
were lined with it as an emblem of
purity,
The ermme is 50 cunning in its ways
that it is almost as difficult TO catch as
it is to "catch weasel asleep In
fact, the only way to capture it IS to
mark its course from home and then
strew mud in itspathway. When the
dainty, tastidious little animal reaches
the point in its path where the mud Is
strewn it will lie down and subject
itself to capture and death rather than
smirch one Of its snow-white hairs
