FOR PRoTHONoTARY.

Now came the tug of war and
centre of attraction, because it was
learned on Monday that the dele
gates were so divided for the several
nominees, that it would take nuns
ber of ballots to reach choice, and
when the chairman announced that
nominations for Prothonotary ect.,
came next each individual drew
his pocket-pencil and paper and
tailed the vote.
Candidates were nominated as
follows:
Morgan Gavitt, Laporte; Frank
Lusch, Dushore; Edward FRANKIE,
Forks; E. E. Mecum. lIillsgrove.
The lst, 2i and Sd ballots results
ed as follows: Gavitt, II votes;
Lusch, 12; FRANKIE. G; and Mecum 2.
With the Sd ballot over Mecum
was dropped from the list. The 4th
ballot was-Gavitt, II votes; Lusch,

RICN, BUT STOLE A SAUSAGE.
Queer Case OF KleptomanIa Recently
Brought to Light In Paris.

We all have heard in our lives of
kleptomania, but do not think that
anyone ever really believed in it, says
the Philadelphia Telegraph. We know
vaguely that man who steals whole
railroads and dies millionaire is a
great financier, and we also know that
a man who steals a loaf of bread to
save his family from starvation is a
thief and goes to Jail, but it is hard to
realize that there are people who steal
trihes simply from a species of insan-
ity. Yet a shining example of this has
just come to'light in Paris. The lady,
whose name for obvious reasons it is
not wellto mention, is a well known
figure in Paris society.
She is extremely handsome and
dresses superbly, but is never seen in
public alone. Some member of her
family always accompanies her and
never leaves her side for an instant, al
though married woman over thirty
years OF age does not usually require
such minute chaperonage. She is a
very charming woman, and a very
brilliant conversationalist, and is
most deservedly popular here. The
horror of her friends may be guessed
when She was arrested recently on the
Faubourg Montmartre for stealing a
sausage valued at eight cents from the
front of grocery. The grocer had her
promptly arrested, and on searching
her they found some potatoes, some
eggs, an opera glass, Il photograph of
Garnet, q coffee cup and saucer and q
spoon, and also, unhappily, her card
case giving her full name and address,
the only thing that was legally her
property, as the other articles were
claimed by their rightful owners, from
whom she had annexed them: The
family were sent for, and by paying
for the stolen objects were able to re-
lease their poor relative, who sat weep
ing bitterly. 1t seems that this ire
sistible impulse to appropriate other
peoples goods is periodic.

The Power OF Wealth.

TO what perfdious methods man
will resort to acquire wealth! Look
at the millions left by Fair, and see
the contention! In many coast towns
young men, and young women, too
are coming unenviably forward and
boasting Of their bastardy, by assert
ing that they are the illegitimate
children of the dead millionaire. One
young man is 80 hardened as to call
himself James G.. Fair Jr. All these
wretches hope to acquire some of the
gold belonging to the estate of the
dead bonanza king. Either Fair was
mighty in progeny or else great deal
of perjury is being committed. Those
who best knew the dead millionaire
while in the flesh, say that he was al
ways self possessed, frugal and en-
tirely devoid of sentiment. It is
doubtful if man of this character
could leave SO many posthumous
children as now appear to call him

a Long Forgotten Claim.

A few days ago Attorney General
Beatty forwarded to Washington, the
necessary papers to start in motion a
court proceeding in the Supreme
Court of the United States, by which
the State will collect about S1700, duo
since 1889.
In September, 1889, our State Su-
preme Court rendered decision in
favor of the State against the @. P.
r. r. Company, sustaining the Judg-
ment of the lower court in it's judg
ment, which amounted then to $1,000

ment.
The writ not having been prosecut-
ed General Beatty says that he can
have it dismissed in the Federal
Court and collect..the money.
Why it has not been sooner attend
ed to, is a question that Attorney
Generals have overlooked, and in Wash

have let it slip along, but the present
District Attorney, f. II. Norcross, has
dug it up, and Beatty will put it

REMARKABLE RUNNING.
An Account OF the Fast Travelling Done
by an Indian.


by an Indian.
A. w. Anthony, a mining engineer
and naturalist, now living in San Diego,
tells of an instance of fast travelling so
extraordinary as to put all siX-day go
as-you-pleasc records in the deep shade,
says the Los Angeles Times.
We were in San Fernando, Mexico,
several hundred miles below San Diego,
says Mr.. Anthony. A band of renegade
Indians held up the camp, stealing all
portable property. 1t was desirable to
get message to the nearest governor,
two hundred and sixty miles away, for
assistance to chase the outlaws. One
runner, Jose, n mission Indian, six feet
two inches tall, weighing about one
hundred and eighty pounds, all muscle
and bone, was given the dispatch and
urged to make haste over the rugged
and sometimes mountainous road to
the governor. He made haste. Ac-
cording to the official records now in
the Mexican archives, our message ask
ing for help was delivered in just
twenty-four hours after Jose left us.
Such u record of two hundred and sixty
miles afoot in twenty-four hours is,
believe, unprecedented. This courier
or runner Travelled ninety-five to one
hundred and twenty-five miles daily on
foot as a regular business, carrying
mail. He could easily carry two sacks
Of ore, weighing one hundred and fifty
pounds each, to the ore dumps. When
running he was clad simply In overalls
and shirt. His feet were protected
either by sandals or thicll-soled mocca-
sins. He carried a leather water bot
tie, and depended upon ranches along
the trail for food.
