Relief Committee at Memphis Obtain Aid
from Secretary of War.
Memphis, March 23.-The river con-
tinues to fall slowly at Memphis, the
gauge registering a fraction under 81
feet, a fall CT about an inch in 48 hours,
but the decline of the great volume of
Of water at this point is due to the
breaks in the levee at Caruthersville,
Mo-, and Sans Souci, Ark.
The railroad situation shows a de-
cided improvement. Assistant General
Passenger Agent Scott of the Illinois
Central railroad announces that traffic
on his line has been resumed and all
trains on the entire Illinois Central
system are again running on time.
The Yazoo and Mississippi Valley
railroad has also been opened and is
running its trains promptly on sched
uled time. The Iron Mountain still
remains above water on the west side
Of the river.
1t has been found necessary to tele-
graph to the secretary Of war asking
enough tents to accommodate 1000
people. II Secretary Alger accedes to
the request, and there is every reason
to blieve that he will, the situation
will be greatly relieved. The number
Of refugees has increased so greatly
that the relief committee find them
selves entirely unable to afford suitable
quarters, The fact thatEther is. SO
much crowding in thoseaplaces where
lodging is provided is thought to be
somewhat menacing to, the public
health. hae

81. Qua&'s Story of Tenderfoot Charley and
Joe Strong, Legislator.
There was q crowd of Is CT 20 men in
the barroom of the hotel at the western
terminus of ths stage line, and the hour
was O'Clock in the evening, when three
men entered with pistols in their hands
and walked over to where'a middle aged
man sat in chair tilted back against the
wall. A hush fell upon the room at once.
'Throw up your handsl" commanded
the leader Of the trio as he halted before
the man referred to.
Upwent the mans hands. He was in no
great hurry about it, and yet he lost no
time.
"S'arch him fur weepinsr'
A second man stopped forward and
passed his hands over the man in the chair,
but found nothing.
"What does this mean, Bill?'' asked the
landlord, finding his voice at last.
"Waal, this is Tenderfoot Charlie" was
the reply; "the feller that killed Abe
ShotweQ over at St. Claire last week"
"Sure of it?'
"Sartin sure
"And what are you goin to do with
him?"
"Hang him to limb! The boys will be
yere purity quick.
The man in the chair lowered his hands
and searched for a match to light his pipe.
All looked at him, but he hadn't a word
to say. He smoked and looked around in
careless way, and finally Bill remarked:
"Hev you nuthin to say, Charlie?"
"Nuthin, cept thar won't be any hang
in, !" was the answer.
"But you bet thar will be! Thar's the
boys with the rope! Stranger, thar's goin
to be leetle exhibishun out on the squar' !,
and it's free to all. Cum along, prisoner,
and if you try any tricks on me it'll be
death by shootin." F."
The prisoner was marched out, and ev-
erybody followed There was tree in the
middle of the square and under the tree u
barrel When the moose had been flung
over his head and drawn tight the man
called Bill sung out, "Now, then, hev you
any remarks to make before the barl is
kicked awayg"
"I'd jest like to say that thar won't be
any hangin," replied the man.
Don't joke in the presence of death!"
Say, now, who you got yere!' called
voice in the crowd.
"Tenderfoot Charlie" chorused dozen
men.
"Jest wait minit!''
A man advanced, took the lantern and
held it up to the prisoners face, and then
cried out:
'SWaal, you are a nice crowd! That's no
more Tenderfoot Charlie than be! Don't
noobdy kick that bar'l!"
Stranger, who be you?" asked Bill as
he came forward.
"Joe Strong" was the reply.
"Why, the feller who has Jest been 'lect-
ed to the legislachur2''
"Thc same"
"Then why in Texas didn't you say SOP"
"Then why in Texas didn't you ask meG
Besides I'd leetle rather be hanged than
go to the legislachur, and SO you kin go

They didn't, however 1t was Bills
