kingwood was greatly excited dur
ing the past week over n reported elope-
men,. The parties were n prominent
widower, and one of our handsomest
girls. They left for Oakland last
Saturday. driving across the country
and returned Monday, and the ques-
ton nov is whether they are married
or not? The widower has fine brick
house and is a great catch among the
girls. and the rest were all green with
envy When they found how Hay he
was getting. and even II they did have
to be petrified to get him, they were
willing TO be turned into Stone TO
get the brick house.

Judge Kibbey yesterday rendered ks

Judge Kibbey yesterday rendered hs resignation as assistant district atto1- ney. District Attorney Williams ap- pointed George P. Bullard to succeed him. Judge Kibbey, however, will continue to represent the county in civil matters and will act as the legal adviser of the board of supervisors. The business of prosecuting criminal cases was always distasteful to him and had been particularly so in the present term. Besides, there was so much business of that character that it greatly interfered with his private practice. MT. Bullard is young man of great energy and is without the supersensitiveness about sending folks to the gallows and the penitentiary that handicapped his predecessor Judge Kibbey tells a good joke on himself. At the close of the Duncac trial in which the defendant was con- victed, one of the jurymen said to him as they were leaving the court house: f'Well, judge, you sent two men to Yuma; one poor devil that didn't have a defense, and another crazy son-of-a-gun"

A Wonderful Scholar.

From time to time articles have APP
peared in newspapers and magazines
of the remarkable versatility of Helen
Kellar, the blind mute, who is going
through Harvard. DIR. Edward Everett
Hale, "the grand old man of
Massachusetts," as he is known,
to many, recently had an OPP
portunity of conversing with this
girl and became more than interested
in her. lie was visiting the pretty viii
lage of Wrentham, Mass, for quiet
and rest, reports an eastern contempo-
rary, andwas the guest of an old friend
and parishioner. Miss Kellar and her
teacher, Miss Sullivan, we're also stop
ping at this resort at the summer
home of friend, and before he left
DIR. Hale called on Miss Kellar. 1t was
exceedingly interesting to witness the
meeting between her and the good
doctor. They conversed for long
time, her fingers upon his lips-and
her wonderful cultivation was brought
out and shown by this interview. DR..
Hale repeated slowly few lines of
ished the verse In clear and distinct
voice. So keen is her touch and so
wonderful is her memory it is said
she never forgets q person and will
call anyone she has ever met by name,
recognizing them merely by touch
of the hand. She can repeat line upon
line of poetry, and is familiar with all
the English and American poets. She
is already ahead of her class at Har-
ward. Her English is remarkable for
its purity. This fact was a wonder
to DR.. Hale. Miss Sullivan told him
it could be accounted for when it is
remembered that she has never heard
any bad English. Helen is interested
in all the sports and many of the games
for young people. Besides working
a typewriter with wonderful facility,
she plays a remarkable game of check
ers. She swims, rows boat, can climb
a tree and is learning to ride the beau
tiful double wheel lately given her by
n bicycle company. Every movement
she makes is graceful, and her table
manners are faultless. Added to all
these accomplishments, her disposi-
tion is most lovely and her heart pure.
Her affection for Miss Sullivan-who,
by the way, is almost as much of a
wonder as Helen herself-is tender and
charming to behold.
