Served Them Right.

A few weeks ago a grand ball was
given in a certain town in Eastern Ne
vada. At this ball there was in attend
anee-as there is at nearly every ball
given in this section of the State-a
couple of Young men, or rather boys
who thought they were young men,
who 'looked upon the wine when it
was redu and imbibed too freely. One
of them, in particular, was SO drunk
that he didn't know whether the or
chestra was playing dance music or
funeral dirge. He asked several very
sensible young ladies to dance with
him and, of course, they declined; but
he eventually found one young lady
who was willing to dance with him
drunk as he was-and they formed
part of set in quadrille.
Every set was complete except the
one in which the ssdrunk' was to figure
and the familiar sentence, zone more
couple this way" was repeated time
and again. "He' we are" a young
man replied as he and his partner took
their places. The music struck up,
and the drunk struck the floor. He
was assisted to bis feet in time to
'soross over' and was "crossing back
when his legs got crossed and he made
a cross on the floor.
Being convinced that either they or
the drunk was ont of place in that set
the young couple who completed the
set walked back to their chairs, and
the other participants emulated their
commendable example, leaving the
"drunk" and the young lady who was
willing to dance with ''drunlzr to
dance it out together Wells Herald.

of practical turn of mind. Recently
he turned up in the guise of tramp
seeking for work at the farm of Peter
Greenwalt, near Huron, S. d. After
working a few weeks he and the farm
ers pretty daughter, Mary, disappeared
and nothing was heard from them until
Mr.. Greenwalt received letter from
from his daughter at Topaz saying
that she was Mrs Burch, the two hav-
ing been married in Kansas City.
Later it was learned that Burch had
been looking up wife for some time
disguised as a tramp. He said he
wished to see girls just as they really
were and not on their parlor behavior.
He studied Miss Greenwalt closely,
found that she was a smart girl and
fine housekeeper, and made her plain
business proposition, which she prompt
ly accepted.

Bravery of a Mother.

In runaway accident at Redding,
Cal, last Tuesday, in which Mrs. Al.
Coots and her infant daughter were in
a wagon behind madly racing horses,
the mother took the heroic measure of
throwing the infant into large bush
they passed, in order to save the child
from the death that seemed their in
evitable fate. The child was unhurt.
The mother then leaped from the wag-
on, but was caught by three strands of
barbed wire that had caught on the
doubletree when the team had pre-
yionsly plunged through fence. She
was dragged a hundred yards through
mud and water. Her clothing was
torn to shreds and her body severely,
though not seriously cut by the barbed
wire.

The dum-dum bullet derives its name
from Dum-Dum, India, where it was
first made. Its top is of brass, and
hollow. When it strikes its victim it
becomes umbrella shaped, and tears
its way through the flesh, making a
dangerous wound. Blood-poisoning
sets in within thirty minutes after the
bullet strikes. It is Objectionable be-
cause it does not give the man who is
shot any chance for his life.

anter to compromise, and divide the
water between themselves in point of
time in its use instead of in quantity,
and suggestion has been advanced by
the Douglas county side to the effect
that the Alpine people take all the
water for given number of days, and
not leave any to flow down, when
scarce, even for domestic and house
hold purposes, and then for certain
number of days to turn all the water
into the river, and not to divert any
for any purpose for themselves. The

and insist that they must all stand to-
gether and litigate. Comment is un.
