lie shonlt be Punished.

This morning Chancellor James F. Robinson received q letter from a woman living in Stuttgart, asking him if a divorce had been granted her. She affirms that some months ago she employed B. F. Adair, a negro attorney living at Sherrill, to obtain divorce for her, and that Adair had written her two letters stating that such Q divorce had been granted and she had paid him A$15 for his services. However, as she had received noformal announce ment of the fact of the divorce she deemed it best to write to the Chancellor to find out if Adairs assertions were true. It is well for her that she did, for the records of the Court show that no such divorce has ever been granted, and, luther more, the papers in the case had not even been filed.
 Deputy Clerk Langford says that it is no unusual thing for him to re- ceive such letters as that written to Chancellor Robinson, and that several "shyster' lawyers in the County are making a practice of defrauding ignorant negro women by undertaking to secure divorces for the them and taking pay from them on the strength that such diyorces have been secured, when, in fact the papers in the cases are never brought before the Court.
 Adair, the negro shyster at Sher- Till, has a most unenviable reputa- ton in this line, and has lately been mixed up in several shady" trans actions. Only a short time ago he was arrested on the charge of embezzlement. but by some means escaped punishment. A few years ago Adair was a member of the Legislature from Pulaski County, and to make it worse, was elected on the Democratic ticket. His reputation finally drove him from Pulaski County and he settle at Sherrill and, should he keep up his present doings, his next abiding place will be the State Penitentiary.

SAME srAaE HELD uP.

Ashland. Or. June 1.-THE regular
monthly ho9d-up of the Agsr and Kla-
math Falls stage occurred last night
shortly after II O'clock The robbery
occurred half a mile from the Topsy
grade and very near where the robberies
Of one and two months ago took place.
the same lone hlghwayman Is supposed
to have executed the job. The stage left
Ager yesterday afternoon. and when the
command to halt came from ambush,
Charlie -Barneburg was driving with two
passengers. Chas. zwisler was outside
with the driver. Zwlsler was made to cut
open the letter pouches and throw them
out and the driver was told to break
open the express box. The driver told
the robber there was nothing in the
box, and the latter seemed satisfied when
he heard its empty rattle. and the ex-
press box was left In the boot. After
the coats and vests of all were thrown
out the robber ordered the driver to
take the stage lantern and leave 1t inside
OF the coach and move away, and when
he had finished his examination
they could come back and get
their coats. They moved on fifty
yards and the robber could be plain
ly seen as he went through the register
ed mail and coats, but he overlooked
some letters and $50 In cash in zwisler's
coat pocket. After this performance he
called the driver and passengers back
and they got their clothes and what was
left of the mail. He then bid them good
night and they were permitted to drive
on. The highwayman was of medium
size and wore a dark overcoat and light
straw hat. He wore no mask, but kept
out Of the light so that his features
could not be outlined He got but few
dollars from the passengers, nothing
from the express company, and, 1t Is

1t is matter of rumor that at various
points in the United tSates attempts are
making to enlist men. equip and arm veg
sells, and by other illegal measures, to
aid in the insurrection now in progress
in the island Of Cuba, While this de-
partment has been furnished with no
tangible evidence, conflrmatory of such
ruInors, 1t deems 1t of great Importance
that no possibility be given for COM

United States has in any respect fallen
short of Its full duty to a friendly ma
tion."
Acting Secretary McAdoo, Of the de-
partment, SAID this afternoon that the
instructions sent to the commodore of
the cruiser Raleigh, for his guidance
when on patrol duty off the Florida
coast, were Of the most comprehensive
kind, and provided for full and strict
enforcement OF the neutrality laws.
With Spanish man-of-war lying off

mile limit, and the Reliegh and her boats
sweeping the inside waters, over-enthusl>
astic Cubans and their American sympa-
thzers who undertake to drive the Unit,

as base of hostile operations ag1inst
the government of Cuba, are likely to be
repressed with strong hand.

STORY OF A LITTLE RAIN DROP.

The little girl was playing on the sandy

foot. Janet (for that was her name) took

water, waiting for the wave to come

little drop began TO talk in the friendliest
manner, and said:
Little girl, do you live here?
NO. said Janet; II have had a long
journey on the cars"
"A journey" said the drop; why, l
have just come, and you never could Inn
agine where I've been!"
Jlnet could hardly believe the little drop,
for you know she thought that that drop
had always been there In the ocean.
