JUSTICE AT MIDLAND.

Out at Midland the other day q
tramp came along and asked a wo.
mau for some to eat, and the lady
told him she had nothing cooked
and could not feed him. The man
of the road told her she was liar
and said some other ugly things.
and then he started down the rail-
road, but before he got half a mile
he was overtaken by a committee
who brought him back and before
the woman who identified him, and
in fact he admitted he had used the
language quoted. He was made to
get down on his knees and beg the
woman's pardon, and then they
brought beer key and laid II on
its side, while a dozen men etood
with shot guns and weapons of all
kinds. even down TO the big pokers
used in the smeltery. and they told
him TO lie across IL aud take a
spanking which they would give
him free of charge. BY this time
he had got into that frame Of mind
that he would do almost anything
asked of him. and he obediently
doubled himself across the barrel.
A barrel stsve in the hands of a
lusty smelterman vigorously ap-
piled to his posterior soon put the
man out of his recollection of hav-
ing been hungry, and begged for
mercy, and when they let him go
he took a look at the town, and
frankly told the people that he
would never come back to their
place again. Those who saw him
leave declare that he went at rap
id pace and that they verify believe
that he was Disguised with the
town.-Cherokee Sentinel.

the line, withdraws the shaft. If the
stroke has been successful the brass
head of the harpoon still attached to
its line, but without the shaft, has gone
entirely through the fish. and buttons
Il can find no better description upon
his under side. The fish is thus Sc
cured to the line. and feeling himself
grievously wounded, Immediately dives
to the bottom, running the line rapidly
out of the tub. AT the same moment
some one seizes the key and throws it
overheard, Stand clear of the line as it
runs out, for should you be caught in
coil of it you would certainly be
dragged overheard and drowned.
Fish, harpoon. line and key are now
all in the water, and to our surprise are
apparently abandoned, and left to take
care of themselves, while the vessel
steams away toward another fish
which has been sighted mile off. A
fresh key and harpoon are ready, the
same shaft serving again, and the
operation is repeated.
HIS STRUGGLES WITH THE KEG.
But our fish is by no means aban-
doned; he is firmly attached to the re-
sisting key, which Is floated upon the
surface, and against which he pulls.
firing himself out just as salmon
tires himself by struggling against the
elasticity of a rod. We see the key,
perhaps mile or more away, bobbing
up and down with the struggles of the
fish. Gradually its motion becomes
fainter; the fish is becoming exhausted.
The steamers boat has already started
in pursuit of the key and when the fish
has ceased to struggle it is easy for the
man in the boat to haul him to the sur
face and there give him the coup de
grace by lancing him in the gills. He
| then makes the f1sh's tail fast to the
stern of the boat, and eleyates an oar
as signal that he Is ready to be taken
| aboard.
| In the meantime the steamer may
| have gone off two or three miles in
pursuit of other fish, and sometimes, to
a landsman's eye, the man, all alone in
boat, with nothing else In sight, Of
| fers a realistic picture Of ship
wrecked mariner. Instances have. been
known, when fog has arisen, of the
steamer being unable to find the boat
before darkness comes on, and SO the
poor lance-man drifts, tied to his dying
fish, until some friendly passing vessel
rescues him and takes him into port.
Such instances, however, are happily
rare.

New York, Feb. 7.-To-day's market
for stocks suffered from the burden of
realizing sales and from bear pressure
due to the recrudesence of the Cuban
scare. There were special elements of
weakness in addition. The Union Pa
cifc securities were heavy on account
of the announced determination of the
government to operate the Kansas Pa
cific under a receivership and to seek
to postpone the sale of that property.
The Kansas Pacific consols opened at
3A per cent. on the strength of this,
but the buying at the decline was very
heavy and aggressive and reassuring
reports were given out that this secur-
ity was not likely to be deprived of its
right of exchange with the reorganized
Union Pacific securities. This appar-
emily failed to rally the stocks of the
company and they were heavy all day,

Northwest preferred showed gain Of

number of stocks showed gains at the
opening but as rule subsequent de-
clines wiped them all out. A few
stocks were conspioous for very Wig

the case with Metropolitan Street

vance and is III higher for the day
There were some sharp gains also in
the usually inactive high priced secur-
tiles. The feverish and unsettled con-
dition of the local corporations was
noticeable in the closing dealings.
Although the stock market was not
lacking in activity and interest, the
bond department. continued to absorb
a large share Of attention and to show
great strength. There were some five
separate single transactions In blocks
of par value Of 100000 or over. Three

Land of3ce Records Destroyed.

The fire at Susanville, Lassen County, which, according to the dispatches to The Call yesterday, destroyed the larger part of the town, has thrown the local office of the United States Surveyor General in- to confusion. Surveyor General Gleaves yesterday received information that the fire had destroyed the Land Office of the unfortunate town and all of the land records had been consumed in the blaze. This will make it necessary for his office force to furnish certified copies of all the records and plats and other data relating to the lands in the northeastern part of the State. Certified copies of the land en- tries will have to be obtained from Wash- ington MT Gleaves believes that he will have to increase his force, and that even then 1t will take at least six months to finish the extra work caused by the de- struction of the Susanviile records.
