HUMoRS AND RUMoRs OF WAR
Marines "Argue" With Man Of Wars
Man Over Their Value in Services

Dressed in the fatigue uniforms OF the
United States marines, Nell Canivey and
John Duval were arraigned in the Center
street police court this forenoon on charge
of intoXication. With them was John w.
Fenton, a man-of-war's man, attired III the
-bottomed trousers and blouse of the
navy. Patrolman Wyold of the Elizabeth
street station explained that he had found
the three drunk and fighting on the Bowery
at o'clock in the morning.
"Your honor" said Canivey, who acted as
spokesman, at all happened this wise: My
mates and 1 came yesterday by rail from
Pensacola Fla, having left the fleet at Key
West, to join our new battleship, the New
Orleans, now in the navy yard. Yesterday
we were all given a night off and came
ashore. We drank too much and got into
an argument. We could not agree as to
whether the marines or the seamen were
the most important to man-of-war In
time of trouble. You see, in times of peace
the marines, of course, are not needed, but
in war"
II don't care to hear your argument"
said the court.
II hope your honor will let us go. We
meant no harm, and II we remain away
much longer we will all get into trouble"
pleaded the marine.
II am going to discharge you because
think you are needed, but you men should
be off fighting Spaniards. instead of rum"
said the magistrate.-New York CONNER

Now, Mr.. Editor, where are we at? From

ceaseless endeavor on the part of those

of hard work has only succeeded in bring
ing the dawn of scientific economics, is it
asking too much of the old Democrats to
allow the rejuvenated Democracy a little
time to present this question to our
people more fully than can be done in a
short campaign? If to prevent the dis
cussion of the issues before the people

against Benjamin Evans was begun in
Justice Owens court yesterday. The de-
PENDANT is charged with having stolen a
piece of pongee silk from the Chinese store
of Lee Quai Sing on Spring street. AS
usual, jury trial was demanded, and the

securing the men to try the old defendant.
Twelve of the men summoned in the venire
failed to put in an appearance, and attach
ments were issued for them. Justice
Owens fined defaulting Juror small sum

heavier sentences will be imposed. The

ooooeoo oooce ooeooo % oooo oooooo eoeeoe THIRTY YEARS DISPUTE
 OVER, 4 SWINGING DOOR
Neither Husband Nor Wife Would Give Up the Stubborn Contest Till the Man Was on Hs
 Deatbbed

T HIRTY years of family quar-
 rels, thirty years of unhappi-
 ness, thirty years of life wasted.
 And all on account of a kitchen
 door.
 Such is the story that comes from MokeIumne Hill, in Calaveras County, and the strangest part of it all is that the two people concerned were of sound mind during the period. That human beings could be so foolish hard ly seems possible. But they were. and there is plenty of evidence to prove it.
 One of the parties to this strange story died a few weeks ago and the other is now in the poorhouse, a broken down old woman. But time was when they were the healthiest, wealthiest and happiest couple in this section of the county.
 That was nearly half a century ago, but there are neighbors still living who well remember the day that Henry Williams and his wife, Martha, came into their midst. At the time the man was about 30 years of age and the woman few years younger.
 They took up a tract of land in fer tile Happy Valley in Calaveras Coun- ty, and from the start prosperity was with them. Henry built with his own hands a comfortable log cabin, and Martha did the work about the place with a light heart. Their crops did well and there. was no sickness among the cattle, which multiplied so that each year a goodly number could be sold and neat sum deposited in bank.
 After twenty years of success and happiness a change came. At this time Henrys could have signed his check for tens of thousands of dol lars, and between them the couple agreed that they had better build themselves a new house and vacate the log cabin that had been their home for so many years.
 'WeH need nice place to spend our old age" said Henry.
 And l think we both deserve it. Let's send for the carpenters to-mor- row." said Martha.
 The carpenter came, and there was no trouble at all about deciding how
The San Francisco call., 1898-05-22
Martha's heart softened.

Martha's heart softened. Going in to her husband she called him gently and said: Dear, I am will ing to have the kitchen door swing in and we'll move into the new house to- morrow"
 Henry promptly felt ashamed of him. self for the course he had pursued in the dispute. No" he answered. We'll move if you want to and the kitchen door can swing out"
 But, really" urged Martha, '1t does not make any difference which way the door swings"
 Then fix it to suit yourself" said Henry.
 Martha had the door hung to swing in. She then had few pretty things brought from town, moved in some fur niture, and then the neighbors carried Henry over and put him into his new bed. Martha became something like her old self and hustled about as we'll as her years would permit to make Henry comfortable and nurse him back to health.
 In this she partly succeeded, for in a few days the old man was up and moving about the new house He was as happy as child and enjoyed every new thing and the bright surroundings to the utmost. Its really much bet ter than the old place, isn't it?" he said. And the door's-well, the doors all right. What did we ever row over it for, anyway"
 Martha shook her head sadly 'Let it pass with the thirty years" she said We haven't many more of them to enjoy"
 Sure enough, the happiness of the old couple in their new home was destined to be brief. Age was already telling on the husband and the question over the door being gone he seemed to settle quickly.
 After few days he had relapse which the. doctor could not overcome.
 One day Martha came into the room after half an hours absence and found that her husband had passed away.
 And now some of the neighbors are wondering if the old gentleman wouldn't have remained alive had he remained imbued with his willful and stubborn spirit to have the door swing as he wanted it to.
