Fell Into Greek.

Monday morning two small sons Of
Charles McMillen, Of West Reynolds
vile, narrowly escaped being drowned
in the Sandy Lick creek, just at bend Of
creek below the iron bridge. The
creek was very high and full Of logs,
which the lads were running over when
they fell into the creek. 1t happened
that local freight train on the Il. X.
X. was doing some shifting near where
the boys fell in and two Of the railroad
men saw their danger and ran to the
rescue. Had 1t not been for the timely
aid the boys would have gone down TO
death.
1t is useless to warn boys about tho
dangerous practice Of running over logs
in the creek or jumping on moving
trains, for they will keep up the prac-
tice and newspapers have to chronicle
sad accidents frequently as result OF
the practice.

ting ARRAY occurred at Rathmel and
Constable John II. Null happened to be
at Rathmel and he nabbed the would

was given hearing before Squire
Smith and afterwards brought to the
Reynoldsville lookup to wait for the
morning train to Brookville. Con-
stable Null took Simons to Brookville
on the first train yesterday morning.

STREET EXHIBITION.
A Quiet Crowd Suddenly Turned Into
Noisy Crowd.


Harry Waller, strong man who
gives street exhibitions, gave perform
ance In front Of Franks Tavern last
evening which was witnessed by large
crowd. Waller Is certainly powerful
man for one OF his size and weight.
The crowd was very orderly and quiet
until the performance was almost over
when an incident occurred which
turned the crowd into whooplng mob.
Waller was TO lift nine men and his l50
pound dumb-bells at one time, and
while getting the men arranged some
person accidentally tramped on one of
his hands. He accused Kelley Ram
sey of the act and Kelley denied the
charge with an oath. The Strong
man" requested Kelley not to swear as
there were ladies In the crowd, but he
did not stop swearing and Waller or
dered him out of tho circle, and as he
did not go, Waller made II race at him
and put him out, and that turned the
quiet crowd into disgracefully bolster
Gus one. An officer took hold OF Waller,
and as the sympathy of the crowd was
with Waller, that was the whyfore Of
the boisterousness. Waller and Kelley
were both taken to the lock-up and
given hearing before Burgess Mitch
ell. Waller was released without pay
ing fine or costs, but Kelley was fined
4.95 for disturbing the peace.
Under no circumstances should law
abiding citizens interfere In any way
with an officer who arrests a person.
If they are innocent they will get JUS
tice when taken before the burgess or Il
a squire. The hooting and howling
Tuesday evening when Waller was
taken TO the lookup was dsgraceful, to
say the least.

Chinatown was like establishing quar-
antine at San Antonio or Houston
against Ell Paso in case plague appear
ed in Ell Paso. The governor edmit-
ted the force of the illustration, but
replied that in the absence of power
on his part to put a granite wall
around Chinatown he was simply do
ing what he could by quarantining at
Ell Paso.
DIR. Jones explained that inasmuch
as plague in San Francisco had been
confined. with one or two exceptions,
to the Chinese. it had been thought by
DR.. Blunt that the risk of bringing the
plague into Texas by infection OF white
people was so small that it might De
safely ignored, and enforcement OF
quarantine measures might be confined
practically to Cinnamon. But as 1t
was impossible to discriminate openly
against the Asiatic race the effort had
been made to admit Caucasians to Tex
as by merely requiring them to secure
certificates at San Francisco or make
that the history of bubonic plague,
both in ancient and in recent times.
proved that the assumption that the
Caucasian race was practically exempt
from danger was wholly unwarranted.
1.-The governor stated that he had
made every possible effort to induce
the United States government to adopt
the necessary measures for stamping
out the plague in Chinatown and that
lust as soon as California or the federal
government would do this he would be
glad to raise the quarantine at Ell Paso.
1.-The long audience which the gov
ernor gave us and the thoroughness
and evident sincerity with which he
went into the discussion satisfied us
that he had believed that the state
was securing through the quarantine
at Ell Paso substantial protection
against real and imminent danger. At
the same time we never faltered in our
position that the quarantine as main
tanned at Ell Paso was not giving the
state any substantial protection. The
governor acknowledged that we had
given him new light on the matter and
promised to give the statements that
we had made to him careful consider
alton"
1.-The governor was exceedingly cor
dial in his expressions of interest in
Ell Paso and his inquiries about the
city, and he declared that if opportun-
ity presented for escape from his exec
ntive duties he would certainly come
put to this end of the state. He laugh
ngly added that he hoped he would
have a pleasanter time of it out here
now than he had when he was here

A 'HABOO" LAWYERS ELoQUENCE

From the London Chronicle.
People in this country frequently
express surprise at the high salaries
paid to members of the judicial bench
in India. When, however, these gen.
tlemen have perforce to hear with a
grave face such pleadings as the fol-
lowing, it is not difficult to understand
why the government offers them a
handsome rate of remuneration. The
case in question was one of assault and
battery: My learned friend with more
wind from a teapot thinks to browbeat
me from my legs. But this is mere
guerrilla warfare. l stand under the
shoes of my client, and 1 only seek to
place the bone of contention clearly in
your hOnor'S eye. Your honor will be
pleased enough to observe that my
client is a poor widow, one post-mor-
tenn son. A widow of this country,
your honor will be pleased enough to
observe, is not like widow of your
honor's country is not able to eat more
than one meal a day or to wear
dhoties or to look after man. So
my poor client had not such physique
or mind as to assault the lusty COM
Blatant. Yet she has been deprived of
some of her valuable leather-the
leather of her nose.
MY learned friend has thrown only
an argument ad hominum upon by
teeth, that my clients witnesses are
near relatives. Their relationship is
there homeopathic. So the misty argu-
ment of my learned friend will not
hold water-at least. they will not
hold good water. And l am sorry to
say that this witness is a man of my
own feathers, that there are in my
profession black sheep of every des-
cription. and some of them do not al
ways speak gospel truth. Until the
witness therefore explains how he has
come across my clients nose leather,
he cannot be believed. He cannot be
allowed to raise a castle in the air by
beating upon a BUSH" We are glad
to observe that the defendant who took
a piece of the widows valuable nose
leather was bound over to keep the
naacp "
