ResIrnrd His once.

At the meeting Of the city council
Tuesday night Hoyt Andrews tender
ed his resignation as city treasurer.
The resignation Was not accepted, and
the matter was carried over to the next
meeting. The Office Of city treasurer
is thankless task, there being no pay
for the work and a great deal of re-
sOnsibility and heavy clerical work,
especially in the collection Of water
rent. The city has paid of about ST.
900 Of its indebtedness in the last year,
and its warrants are now worth 90 cents
as against IS cents when the present
city officers took charge. A good deal
OF this success is due to Mr.. Andrews
energetic and thorough bushes meth
DDS. 1t is evident that there would be
no objections made by the citizens Of
GOOdlaud il q reasonable salary was
allowed the city treasurer.

LIVERY BARN BURNS.

Ennis Walkers Livery Barn Totally
Destroyed BY Firs-EO Insurance..
Saturday forenoon about lbs the
livery barn Of Ennis & Walker was dis
covered on fire and all attempts to save
the building we're Of no avail.
The fire was discovered by some boys
playing ball near the building and they
gave the alarm. The fire started in 8
dog kennel box that was left against
the side OF the building, and soon ig-
nited the barn, but II. n. ScheII and
William Ennis succeeded in extinguish-
ing the fire on the outside, but it was
found that it had crept through and
gotten into the racks where bay Was
fed to the horses and it was all over
with then.
All Of the horses we're gotten out and
turned loose and ali the vehicles, hsr-
ness, etc, were saved. Attempts we're
made to pull down the large sheds, but
the fire was so hot and burning so rap
idly nothing could be done. 1t wasn't
more than 20 minutes until the whole
barn was entirely consumed.
Several tons Of hay and some corn
and oats went up in smoke. There was
no insurance on the building, the poll
CT having expired six months ago.
The barn had just been rented to H.
n. Schell who had not been in posses
sion but few days.
The origin OF the fire is unknown

markable ring. which he had also
worn,, and of which he had told me
the history, when we had met four
years previously in America. I had
thought it perhaps the very finest dia-
mond had even seen in the possess
sion OF a private person, and he had
mentioned that it had been taken from
the first mine of which he had ever
been the owner. He had had it for
some years. and having grown stouter
meanwhile. the gold setting had cut
rather deeply into the flesh of his
finger.
He had laughingly alluded to this in
Denver, saying that he had promised
a pretty girl that she should have the
stone when he should be Obliged to
have the ring cut of, and he meant
to stick to it as long as he could. Ex-
cept for the fact of having remarked
that he still wore the ring, and that
his finger looked as pinched as wom-
ans waist beneath its clasp. l could
not in any way have described Harvey
Farnhams hand. | had doubtless a
general impression of its shape and
contour in my mind, but l did not
now recall that there had been any re-
cognizable likeness between it and the
dead hand my dream had shown me.
Still, though I was able to give myself
a perfectly rational explanation of the
dream, and even of the impression of
Farnham's voice earlier in the night,

pleasant sensation of there being some
duty connected with the vision which

HE KILLED THE BULL.
Cadet Astonished the Portuguese at a
Bull Fight at Cintra.


Second Lieut.. ]. H. Scott, u. S. r. NJ,
the executive officer of the Hudson that
pulled the disabled Winslow out Of the
hole at Cardenas, proved his pluck in
Portuguese bull ring long ago while on
practice cruise on the Chase, in Au-
gust, 1888.
The vessel was at Lisbon and the
starboard watch Of cadets were ashore.
Some, with "Hutohy," as Scott was
called, went to see bull fight at
Cintra. In the royal box sat the
present ruler of Portugal, then a youth.
Suddenly a cadet cap was seen to fly
through the air and drop in the center
of the arena,
The owner. ncSG other than
"Hutchy," jumped into the ring. grab
bed spear from a matador, and after
giving his trousers sailor like hitch
proceeded to assail lively bull Tho
multitude that crowded the tiers rec
ognized the uniform and yelled-men,
women and ehildren-''Viva ell Ameri-
cano"
The bull fell, the first bull killed In
a Portuguese arena in twenty years.
With spear in one hand and cap in the
other, looking much scared. 'Eutchy"
was conducted by some attendants to
the royal box and received congratula-
tions.
Prince Carlos, removing the signet
ring from his finger, presented 1t to
Scott. The affair was the talk OF LIS
bon. and as result of fhe-ceiveTari oh
that followed, for the ring had to be
wetted. "Hutchy" and his chums were
kept on board for a month or more lie
repentance.-New York World.

has been changed to "Mansered." If
man was wounded otherwise he was
probably ''macheted" If he was
killed, cause or injury unknown, the
soldiers will tell you he was "dagoed."
and let it go at that. The reason for
calling the Cubans "cubebs" is not
hard to find, nor why the Spanish vic
TINS of the butcherys were "dagoed"
The Spanish sharpshooters were not
lynched by the American soldiers, they
were strapped which is distinction
with only slight difference. Ropes
were not handy and rifle straps al
ways were.
The soldiers in Santiago didn't take
walk or make "a march, he did a
'hyke." Any soldier knows what a
"hyke" is, but very few seem to'know
why it is. A volunteer in the Army
building the other day said that he had
been .'hyking all over looking for
transportation
What does hyking mean?" he was
asked.
"oh, you know! 7+ahzto hyke,"
was his reply
Food is, Of course, grub, but bread
and butter sand hafdtack is often
known as spunk, =" while the word
rations hassbeen abbreviated to rats"
Hardtack by itself is commonly known
as 'angel .foodY A soldier who was
asked thesreason for this term simply
laughed and replied: Cause it amt
A soldier doesn't lie nowadays, at
least those who have been in Cuba
don't. They only pitch you a fierce
one" er|possibly give you pipe"
If the soldier has doubts as to your
veracity he may insinuate that you are
dreaming" or that your pipe is out.
If he wanted you to infer that he had
been locked UP in the guard house by
a ..member of the provost guard he
would probably say that he had been
'ecooped in BOBBY hatch by a bull"
Should soldier inform a civilian that
his bunkie was baked by a bull for
jumping a gump" he would probably
be misunderstood. His meaning would
be that his tent mate had been arrested
by the provost guard for stealing a
chicken, which is not quite as bad as
1t sounds.
