Carson then told his story of the af-
fair:
Went into Wahle's saloon to find Joe
Crosier, who was going with him to Elk
horn, where he intended to do some yeter-
ilary work. He saw Phil Smith, John
Bergman and Dahlman there: they were
at the bar taking drink. Dahlman said:
Gentlemen drink, but that bastard
(pointing to CARSON doesn't"
p He put his hand on Dahlman's shoulder
and said:
''Dahlman, what was it you said to nv
women folks last night?"
He then made sudden move with his
hand towards his pocket Carson thought
he intended to draw a gun and struck
him with small bag of tools he had in
his hand. A bag of tools was then intro
duced. which the prisoner identified as
his, and the one with which he struck
tae blow. The contents of the bag were
exhibited and proved to be a pair of for
ceps and some files. Carson struck him
twice with the bag of tools and he fell
to the floor: he then kicked him to pre-
vent him from drawing gun. He got up
and wiped the blood from his face with
the bar towel. He spoke with Dahlman
and asked him what right a round-head
had to talk as he did about Carson's sis
tiers and wife. He said he did it while he
was mad.
The case was continued until Monday.

some movement was premeditated
against the Transvaal republic.
The liberal papers to-day comment
upon the situation and ask if Great
Britain is preparing TO seize the Trans
vaal. They point out that the perma-
nent establishment Of big garrisons in
South Africa is a complete reversal of
the old policy of Withdrawing troops
from the colonies
The Star declares that "hemming in
the Transvaal with British battalions
is sinister move, portending serious
danger in the future
A big strike of miners has begun in
Belgium for an increase in wages.
About 10000 men are now out, a num-

In consequence of the complaints of
French colonists that it is impossible
to find French WINS unless they re-

who are suitable for colonial mar

TIMING A MOVING TRAIN.
Count the Rail Joints and You Can Tell
the Speed to a Fraction.

SouAt VIC ltAii JOINTS ana You Can Tell
the Speed to a Fraction.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer
Not one person in hundred who
travels has any idea of the speed of
train, and even large percentage of
the regular trainmen cannot tell with
any degree of accuracy. Engineers use
their driving wheels as a gauge They
know it's circumference. and by count
ing its revolutions within a certain
time can tell very accurately the speed
at which they are running.
A favorite method of timing among
passengers is to count the telegraph
poles. AS a rule these poles are plant
ed 80 to the mile, but in prairie coun-
tries where only a single wire is used
the number diminishes to 25, so that
rule will not always work The most
accurate method, and the most in use
by experienced railroad men, is to
count the number of rail joints the
train passes over in 20 seconds. The
rails on nearly all roads are 80 feet in
length, and the number passed over in
20 seconds is the number of miles the
train will run in an hour
For instance, if passenger can
count 80 clicks the train is running
80 miles an hour. Actually, this meth
cd falls little short as in the exam
pie given above the speed would be
nearer 81 than 30 miles, but it is near
enough for all practical purposes.

The Moonshiner Explained.

From the Atlanta Constitution.
A Georgia revenue man had novel
experience recently with a moonsniner
in a suspected district
Early one morning he discovered an
old man standing near a grave in the
mountain region.
But the trouble about this grave was
that the revenue man had observed
smoke issuing from the place where
the headboard should have been.
He surprised the old man, who imme-
diately feigned great sorrow explain
ing his presence there by the statement
that his brother was buried there.
At the mention of his brother he
feigned great grief and said he ''never
would get over tit wuz SIGH hard
dispensation of Providence"
But isn't it peculiar said the reve-
nue. man, that I see a stovepipe at the
head of his grace, and smoke issuing
'therefrom?"
