The Newberry Herald and Neaos'
bomb has exploded. 1t said sometime
ago that the explosion would soon be
heard, and Messrs. Caldwell and Pope
have set it of. Judge Goff, of the
United States Court, has enjoined
Governor Evans from taking any steps
towards convening the Constitutional
Convention. The novel feature Of this
csse is that the bill alleges that Gov"
ernor Evans, Senator Tillmau, Mcssrs"
Hemphill, Efrd, McGowar and Barn"
well have fo,ned conspiracy, and the
casa has been very strongly put in the
bill. Along with "a. order OF iWunc'
ton are some inter:ogatories pro-
pounded to Governor Evans, and 1t
will be interesting TO know how he i
going to answer them. The conspl-
racy feature, we believe, will fail, be-
cause it is not ali agreement to divide
delegates to the Constitutional C'nVen-
ton, but an agreement to divide can'
didates to the convention. That the
registration laws are uuconsti.u;lonal
we have not got the slightest conb-'
snd We believe the Cont will so de-
clare at the hearing on the 2nd Of Ma!
in Columbia.

this matter, too.

A Night in a Sand storm.

One night in their journey across the
desert in Egypt Mr. and Mrs. White
law Reid were awakened by the blow
ing down of their tents. The fine,
piercing sand was coming from all di-
rections, and breathing was both pain
full and difficult. Mr.. Reid called to
the Bedouin attendants who acted as
their guides as well as guards. The
Bedouins knew what to do. They saw
in an instant that severe sand storm
was upon them. Mr.. and Mrs. Reid
were told to lie fiat upon their faces.
The Bedouins put saddles over their
heads and then wrapped head and
saddle in three thicknesses of wooden
blankets. The storm ragged for seven
hours, and during it no one moved. So
penetrating was the sand that in spite
of the thick covering over their heads
Mr.. and Mrs. Reds faces both were
incrustcd with it. That was not all.
Within the leaves of closed books that
were packed in securely fastened
trunks this fine sand was found. IN.

WELL MET.
Composer and Critic Were at One Socially
Any Way.


Amy Way.
An amusing story is told of Robert
Franz, the famous German songwriter.
and another equally celebrated COM
poser. The incident occurred soon
after the publication of Franz famous
open Letter to Edward Hanslick," in
which he made severe criticism upon
some musical work of the composer
Johannes Brahms. Franz had occa-
sion at that time to take a FIVE or six
hours trip by rail. In tie compart-
ment with him was a little man with
whom he had fell in conversation. The
fellow-travelers found each other de-
lightful, and whiled the hours away in
agreeable talk, which did not turn
upon music.
When the train reached Franz's des-
tination he took out his card-case, say
ing to his companions:
You have made me pass most de-
iightful afternoon; allow me to give
You my card"
The stranger seemed highly gratified,
and offered Franz his card in return.
Each looked at the bit of pasteboard
he had received in amazement The
strangers eyes opened wide in reading
the name of his merciless critic, ''Dr.
Roberl Franz" while Franz himself
was equally astounded at reading on
the card in his hand, Johannes
Brahms"
There was no time for mutual ex.
plan atoms, but each of the musicians
had discovered that however their
ideas might differ from a musical
standpoint, they were at least adj
mira BILE travelling companions, and had
found much to enjoy in each other

Evading the PressganC.

1t was not easy matter to get mar
ried in pressgang times. Robert
Miller, Kirkwall man, found this to
be the case. He returned from the
whalefishing one autumn, fully re-
solved that he should take unto him
self wife. But the pressgang got on
his track, and he soon saw that if he
was to get his hearts desire, he would
require to exert both pluck and per-
severance. At length tho fateful
night arrived. The company had
gathered, and the minister was in The
house of the bride, prepared to pro-
coed with the ceremony, when the
dreaded pressgang made its appear
ance. Ladies are not usually of a
belligerent disposition, but when they
saw, as in this instance, the likeli-
hood of a marriage being spoiled by
interlopers, they rose up in wrath
against them. They assaulted the mem
bers of the pressgang both with
tongue and missiles, so that these
gentlemen were glad to beat hasty
retreat After this little episode, a
back window of the house was lifted
and the bridegroom, dressed in wom-
ans clothes, bounded into the room.
The doors having been barricaded to
prevent a surprise, the clergyman
proceeded to perform the ceremony,
and surely no bridegroom was ever
married in such a strange garb! Miller
was never captured, He lived to IA
ripe old age, and was the first beadle
of the Kirkwall Free church.

DEMAND FREE BEER.
Cursvus Strike of the Employees in a West

Curious Strike of the Employees in a West
ern Brewery.
While in the west the other day we
learned of a curious strike among the
brewery workmen of Omaha. 1t seems
that in the terms of agreement drawn
up by the breweries there was one
article which limited the hours during
the day when free beer should be fur
nished the men. These hours were
nine. twelve, two, three, four and six
o'clock. But because of this article
the men would not sign the agreement,
though in every other part it was per-
fectly satisfactory. They demanded
the free-beer provision to cover every
hour in the working day.
The habit of drinking beer develops
condition of the system that requires
it in unnatural quantities. There are
breweries, we were informed, in this
country where beer is free to work.
men and the men drink forty or fifty
glasses in day. 1t is said that these
creatures look upon their fat as sign
of health and receive the congratula-
tions of their friends as hogs might on
their increase of weight, not knowing

increase is the precursor of DEATH

A Sculptor Who Charmed Sitters by His
Dluntness.
1t is said that some of the sitters to
Nollekens, the celebrated sculptor,
were charmed by the downright blunt
ness Of his compliments, which were
SO evidently free from all Intentional
flattery.
One day no was modelling the head
of a lady of rank, when she forgot her.

sumed look of great haughtiness.
which displeased the sculptor.
Don't look so scornful, madam" ne
said, bluntly, you will spoil my bust
and you're = very fine woman-I
think it will mako one Of my very
best"
At another time he said to sitter
who had cast in one eye: Pray look
the other way, madam, that may get
rid of that shyness in your eye, which
though not disagreeable in life, is un-
usual in art"
At one time he had had for sitter
woman of great beauty, but of ex-
tremely nervous and impatient temper
ament. During her sittings she con-
stantly changed her position, and with
each change OF position her expression
varied.
At last Nollekens' patience gave
way.
Z MADAM" he cried, unceremonions-
ly, what does it matter how hand
some you are, if you will not sit still
till have modelled you"
The sitter smiled with gratifed van
ity, and much to the sculptor's amaze
ment was almost as quiet as a lay
figure during the remainder OF her
sittings. Youths Companion.

A SHARP PIECE OF STRATEGY.
Corporation Counsel Devlin Secures a
New Contract.
VIII 1t Shut Mayor Hubbard Out From
Appointing a New Corpora
ton Counsel3

After the Trustees meeting was over
last night and most of those present
had left the hall, little episode hap
pened that for time looked as if it
might lead to blows.
AS Trustee Devine was about to leave
the hall Hiram Johnson handed him
paper and asked him if he Endorsed that
kind of a scheme.
What kind of a scheme is it?" said
Devine.
Look at it and see,'' was the reply.
1t proved to be a contract signed by
B. U. Steinman, as Mayor, and R. T.
Devlin, bearing the date of December
26, 1895, and filed with Clerk Flint.
1t recited the action of the board in
May, 1894, empowering the Mayor to
appoint Corporation Counsel to attend
to the city's business, and went on to
contract between the city and Mr.. Dew
lir. that the latter should "be employed
by the city of Sacramento, pursuant to
the conditions and terms thereof, until
discharged by the Board of Trustees, as
in the said ordinance provided"
1t further provided that when so dis
charged, he shall surrender all books,
papers and documents in which the city
is concerned, but that he shall be al
lowed one month, if the Trustees so de-
termine, in which to arrange any mat
tiers pending in court.
Mr.. Devlin's original contract ex-
pires on January 6th," said Mr. John
son, "and this is a scheme to perpetuate
him in the Office and prevent Mayor
Hubbard from appointing a new Cor
office. 1 think it is an Infamous outrage
and should not be countenanced."
While he was speaking, Mr.. Devln
came in, and Mr.. Johnson turned the
Walls of his wrath upon him.
Il would not grasp at all the business
in sight if I were you he said, land try
to hold on to it. l should think you
ought to be satisfied with the share of
public pap you have had already and
not try to hog it all. There is decency
in all things"
What is there out of the way in the
contract?" asked Devlin. 1.-THE Trus-
tees have power to discharge me when
ever they see fit, and if they do so I
shall not attempt to hold on to the office.
L am ready to quit at any time they say
So
Yes, but this contract is not like the
old one. Under that one you could be
discharged by the Trustees or your sue
cessor could be appointed by the
Mayors successor. Your contract ran
only till January 9Th, and this perpetu-
ates it unless the Trustees discharge
you" said Johnson. IT think it is an
Infamous outrage, and you ought not
to hold on"
We'll, 1 am at the orders Of my bosses
and do not need any advice" said Dew
lin. IF they want TO discharge me I
will surrender the office. I don't want
it any longer than they want me to have
it."
Mr.. Johnson called him some very I'M
complimentary names and said he had
the pleasure of telling him what he
thought Of him at least.
Mr.. Devlin's only reply was that he
was at the orders of the Trustees, and
the matter was entirely in their hands
and the parties separated and went
their respective ways
