A PLUcKY WOMAN.

When Mr.. and Mrs. w. LAM drove
to town this morning, they found there
was something wrong with their car
riage and so drove to the shops of the
Hawaiian Carriage Co. on Queen street
to inquire as to what should be done.
Both the occupants got out and were
about to begin their talk with one of
the men of the shops when the horse
became frightened at something and
bolted. Mrs. LAM was nearest the AMI
mails head. She made spring and
caught the reins. The horse had got a
good start and it was no easy matter to
bring 1t to a stop. Mrs. LAM was neryy
and hung on like grim death. The
horse dragged her for a half block Or
more and then found that 1t was impos-
sible to go any farther, The grip on
the reins was too strong and SO there
was nothing else to do but stop.

FIRST CIRCUIT JUDGES.

There was a meeting Of the Bar AS
ISOLATION on Saturday, to consider the
status of the First Circuit Court. The
law provides for two judges but for
some months now the second judgeship
has been vacant. This meeting seems
to have agreed that the circuit requires
three judges. A committee was ap-
pointed to report a recommendation
consisting of these members: A. G. NJ.
Robertson, S. X. Kane, Il. p. Dole, 4.
McCants Stewart, Geo. A. Davis and d,
II. Case.
Another matter was the salary Of
Judge. 1t was considered too low to at
tract and retain good men on the
bench. ]. X. Kaulia, w. o. Smith and
F. NJ. Hatch were appointed a commlt-
tee to report on this question. 1t is in
tended to forward the memorials to be
adopted to President Mckinley AMI

In one of the local asylums for the
insane there are certain apartments
known as 'suicide-rooms." These are
set aside as harbors of refuge for
those patients who manifest strong
desire to end their lives. Everything
in these rooms is round. There are
NO knobs or posts to the beds, for
the maniac would tie . sheet around
any such projection and hang him
self. For the same reason there are
no gas fixtures and no inside shutters.
There are not even door knobs, while
the doors themselves are made to open
outward. When the men undress their
clothes are carefully removed from
the room, so that they may not bt
used for strangling their owners. AL
the edges of bureaus, the backs Of
chairs, ETC., are carefully rounded, Sc
| that there may be no points upor
which the inmates might beat thei
heads. No canes or sticks are III
| lowed in the rooms. The doors ar
left open at night, and keeper pa
rades necessarily up and down be
tore them-Philadelphia Record.

BIG avARMINT" ROUNDUP.


For q long time mountain lions, |
bears and wolves have been raiding |
the stock on the big cattle ranch OF
Colin Campbell in Cochise county,
Arix. With 10000 cattle on the
range, the heavy losses in calves and
yearlings by the ravages OF the wild
animals have cut down the dividends
of the stock company which owns the
range. "Charley" Montgomery, ia
NOUS all over Arizona as hunter. and
who was chief of scouts under Gen.
Crook during the trouble with the
Apaches, was engaged to exterminate
the animals which have been raiding
the herds. Montgomery engaged 100
men of tie Pima tribe, and held big
roundup Of the "varmints," reports
the San Francisco Chronicle.
Early in the morning his Indians and
a score of cowboys surrounded dis
trict five miles square in the foot
hills of the Chiricahua range and

with 200 dogs in the rodeo. AS they

occasional grizzly bear tried to break
through the line, but were met by a
shower of bullets. Dozens of animals
persisted in the attempt to escape, but
200 others were finally cornered in q
box canyon, while redskins and COW
puuchers picked them of from The
rocks above.
There were scores of close conflict!

brutes, and in one melee four indians

before their shots finally finished thu
bear. One of the reds, Antonio Hermo
former chief of the tribe, received ia
tai wounds from the claws of big fel

Tins, and dozens of them were kille
before the slaughter was complete
The final count showed 10 dead mouI
