He Was Acquitted.

In a certain county in Kentucky lived,
Just outside of the county seat, farmer
who had plenty of money and was active
in politics, but he had no ambition for
office. lie was very popular and the time
came at last when his friends said it was
his duty to save his party by coming out
as candidate for the Legislature. While
the campaign lasted he showed no inter
est, but on election day he went early to
town and stayed there until the polls
closed. By 10 o'clock that night the re-
turns were in and hasty count showed
that he had been overwhelmingly de-
feated. Then he filled up and went to
his home.
''Susan, Susan," he whooped when he
got into the house. Pm acquitted.
Hooray. Amt you glad?'
"Why, George" she exclaimed, "what
do you mean?'
"Why. Susan, Pm acquitted. Don't
you understand? The jury was out all
day and they returned verdict tonight
of not guilty; and, Susan. l won't have to
go to the Legislature. Whoop! Hooray"

STRIKERS DISCHARGED.

Cases Against Them NolIe Prosecuted
by the District Attorney.
The San Francisco Cali of yesterday
says that District Attorney Foote is fol-
lowing out his avowed intention Of dis
missing the indictments against strikers
whenever any of the latter can show that
the charge hanging over their heads is
keeping them from getting work.
In this way quite number of the men
have been allowed to 60, and in the case
of Knox, the leader of the Sacramento
A. X. U. men, his bail was exonerated
and he was allowed to go on his own
recognizance.
Many of the A. r. U. men under in
dictment are ayailing themselves of the
District Attorneys clemency and are ask
ing to have the charges against them dis
missed.
Joseph Hill of Sacramento and Richard
Lane of Oakland produced proof yester-
day that they could get steady work If
Judge Foote would only nolle prosequi
the charges against them.
This the District Attorney did at once
rs soon as satisfied that the mems state
ments were correct, and District Judge
Hawley ordered the men discharged.

The Telegraph states shat operations at
the McCue- Bates mine at that place have
been suspended for several days. Here
tofore the sinking OF the shaft was done
