Everybody, big or little, likes

serve last fall. Fortunately

His Honor aroke Up the Came.

"Judge Walker of Maysville was very
strict on the bench, but not always SO
in his private life" said John L, Scott
of Frankfort, Ky. cit had become the
custom of the lawyers travelling the cir
cult Il indulge in a friendly game of
poker after court adjourned at night,
and Judge Walker frequently joined in
the game. One night at Brookville, 10
Bracken county, the court and the at
torneys Joined in a game on the evening
that they arrived, and the next morning
when court opened the judge, i'll giving
the usual charge to the grand jury, adj
dressed himself to the attorneys.
4" Gentlemen, you are officers Of the
court and as such are sworn to uphold
the laws and the constitution Of the
state. You have been playing poker con-
nary to the statutes in such cases made
and provided. Each of you will be fined
SO upon the return Of indictments, the
bringing of which l have instructed.
Turning to the prosecuting attorney
he said: 'Wadsworth, you are not only a
lawyer, but the prosecuting attorney
sworn to bring offenders to justice. You
will pay $25.
" Walker, laying his hand upon his
own breast, you are not only a lawyer.
but judge. You have violated the law
and must pay $50.
''He paid the fine, as did each Of the
lawyers, and it broke up the game on
that cirv1it ".--St, Louis Globe-Demo-

The game Of the world is decreasing,
and as new lands are opened to civiliza-
ton so it will get less and less. In the
struggle for existence. there will be no
room for the sportsman. His require
ments will grow more modest as time
advances, but they will not be satisfied.
The last British wolf was killed in Suth-
erlandshire about the year 1900 by man
named Poison. Who will be handed
down to posterity as the slayer of the last
British rabbit? What pathetic picture
might be drawn of the last cock pleas
ant! Perhaps some Macaulay Of the far
distant future may astonish his readers
by his account Of what went on in the
rural districts of Great Britain in the
nineteenth century.
He would relate how, owing to the
scantiness Of the population, men used to
shoot partridges and pheasants by the
thousand on ground then and for geuer-
atoms past the sites Of immense to yrs;
telling how the great garden Of England,
then mapped out into small tenements,
each labOriouslv and infinitely cult
waited, with no waste Of wood or hedge
row, used IN those far away years to be
furiously ridden over by hundreds Of

The Methodist Church Lifts and 1ndebt-
edness of 5000.
When the new Methodist church,
which was built and furnished at cost
of nearly $4,000, was completed a year
and halt ago, it owed $4,000.
A few weeks ago DR.. Scruggs and Mr..
IS. R. Christie set about to raise the
money with which to discharge this
debt. and the result of their efforts was
shown few days ago by liquidation of
The entire amount.
Nov that the church has been paid
for, arrangements will do doubt be made
for its dedication at an early date. There
are many who would like Tor Sam Jones
to preach the sermon on thai occasion.

ANOTHER INSTITUTION.
THE DAWSON BUSINESS INSTITUTE
is ITS NAME.
A New Scool, and a Good One, to BE
Opened on January 14th by Pro-
fessOr BrittOn.

Bv reference to the advertising col
umns of THE News it will be seen that
Dawson is to have high grade business
school with literary department at
tached.
This school is to be under the charge
of Professor Edward E. Britton, prac-
teal progressive and energetic teacher
with years of successful experience IN
educating young lhen and women for
business life, for teaching and for the
higher classes of college and university.
When Professor BrittOn rendered his
resignation as member OF the faculty
of the city schools the board of commits
sioners unanimously adopted the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved, That the Board of Public
School Commissioners of Dawson, Ca,
accept with sincere regret the resigna-
ton Of Professor E. E. Britton as princi
pal of our public schools; that We recog-
nize in him a scholarly gentleman of
high character and unreservedly COM
mend him as specially fitted for an edu-
Gator in any community in which he
may hereafter cast his lot"
Dawson needs just such school as
Professor Britton intends to establish.
II offers an opportunity to young men
already in business, and to young women,
beyond the ordinary school to improve
themselves in special studies. The hours
arranged are convenient to young men
in the stores and offices, and the location
Of the school, in the Baldwin block, is as
convenient as could be desired.
Special courses for teachers, or those
preparing to teach, is a golden opportu
nifty to the young teachers of Terrell,
who can obtain board at low rates.
Get one Of the neat pamphlets giving
full information of the school, its rates
of tuition, etc., and be prepared to enter
on January 18th, when the first session
will begin.
Professor Britton already has assur-
ances of "a number of pupils, and there
is every promise of a good attendance.

Great Battle

Is continually going on in the human
system. The demon of impure blood
strives to gain victory over the constitu-
ton, to ruin health, to drag victims to
the grave. Hoods Sarsaparilla is the
weapon with which to defend ones self,
drive the desperate enemy from the field,
and restore bodily health for many
years.

1t is said that the redemptive feat
ure of our work is the most discOurag-
ing in the world-so few drunkards
are really redeemed. However that
may be, would not try to state fin
ally, but now and then there drifts
this way bright story OF a life made
new. This brothers story-for he is
"brother' now-is long, and Only
part of it can be quoted. He calls it
FOUR PICTURES OF A REDEEMED NAN.
"The first picture is that of man
who was doing we'll, surrounded by
wife and children, visited by loving
mother. Through drink and dissipa-
tlon he wandered far away One day
he was standing on street corner,
trembling in every limb, conscience
and remorse at work, longing for a
kind word and helping hand.
"The second picture is of build
ing, over the front entrance to which
are these words: Woman's Christian
Temperance Union. The outcast of
scene first is found there daily. He
listens to the testimony of his COM
panions. He is surrounded by women
who wear the white ribbon. Their
words are not in vain, and at last be
realizes that he has the blessed as
snrance'-a loving Savior.
"Scene three. A little home in
another part OF the city. 1t is the
home of this mans mother, whom he
has not seen for two years. AS he en-
ters-unexpected-the presence OF
that mother, she is quick to detect the
wonderful change. Her face lights UP
with joy, and che kneels with her
boy, and sends praises to heaven for
the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union.
"In the fourth picture is the re-
deemed man in his own home. His
wife is by his side, his children
near By, happy because father IS at
home. As he looks into his wife ;
face, he reads there the forgiveness
which lie seeks"

Next meeting Saturday. Feb l6.

A little "street arab" got aboard a
street-car, and, finding room on seat,
leaned over and fell asleep. His
clothes were ragged and scant. His
little bare feet were brown and tough
ened, and his face was dirty. His hat
fell off, and showed an uncombed tan
gle of hair. AS he lay there asleep
with his little head on the hard seat,
a sweet-faced. well-dressed young girl
who sat opposite, leaned over and
softly slipped her muff under the lit
tie fellows head 4 man near her
nodded approval. and putting his
his hand in his pocket handed her a
piece Of money, beckoning toward the
boy as he did So The next man did
the same, and almost before she knew
it, with her face ahame, she had col
lected something from every one in
the car She put it in his hat, and
laid it under his hand. Then softly
removing her muff again, she had the
car stopped and went on her way

SHELTON COUNTY, WASHINGTON FRIDAY FEBRUARY 1885,
A Wonderful Table.

A table about Il yard square, with
SOO,O00 pieces of wood in it, is tn,
work just completed by Charles +.
Adam, carpenter OF Bridgeport
Conn. 1t is without doubt the mos
remarkable piece of woodwork ever
constructed in Che state. The table
Is MIR. Adams second attempt at this
kind of work. 1t was begun in 1891.
and was intended for exhibition at
the Worlds fair, but could not be
completed in time. Three thousand
three hundred and sixty-four hours o
actual labor were put by Mr.. Adams
on the table.
In the center of the revolving top
is good representation OF the White
House, at Washington, surrounded by
the stars and stripes. The border OF
the top is handsome piece of mosaic
work, and on the four sides are shown
Washlngton's birthplace, in Virginia; !;
his familiar Mount Vernon home: the
birthplace of Grant, in Ohio; and the
place where Grant attended school as
boy. Tastefully interspersed with
these are many quaint designs that,
taken as whole, make up pattern
which much resembles the production
of the weaver's art.
The supports consist OF two pieces
of oak placed together in the form of
letter OK" placed upright, cut out
IN scroll and with a graceful column
after the Corinthian order of things.
On each face of these oak supports
are two panels, making 16 in all, on
which are shown trees, birds, leaves
of different kinds, and all varieties of
plant growth.
On the lower part are shown an
American eagle, with outspread
wings, clutching cluster OF arrows
in its talons; deer's head, stork,
sparrow, and two roosters, Washing
tons Valley Forge headquarters, the
birthplace, of Lincoln, in Kentucky,
and Ford's theater, where he was shot,
and the house near by where he died;
the birthplace of Columbus, at Genoa,
Italy, on a background of dark rose
wood; cloister in Spain, visited by
Columbus; the ship Constitution, Lib
by prison, cluster of lilies and Gais-
les, twenty-six varieties of leaves, with
ferns, fruits, etc.
There is nothing in the nature of q
paint, dye, or stain of any sort on the
whole work, the various effects, which
are very beautiful, being brought out by
the natural colors of the woods, of
which there are seventysix different
varieties. Some of the woods are an
cient, of special historic interest. There
are pieces from India and mahogany
snuff box that was made from the
timbers of the ship Constitution. There
is also wood from the Johnstown flood
worked into the table.

THE spirit of gambling is an nher-
ent one, and cannot be laid at the
door of our modern civilization. For
nearly month the untutored Siwash
and aboriginal Black river Indians
have engaged in a somewhat remark
able gambling fete upon the reserva-
ton adjacent to Tacoma, which hna-
llv resulted Saturday in the vanqnlsh-
meni of the Black river braves, and
thev returned home minus eleven
horses, dozen rifies, seven vehicles,
much cash and, it is said, one hand
some squaw, all lost at the big sing
game, or guessing contest.
