Makes You Laugh.


Ex-Secretary Elihu Root was
one time talking about the hui

They are humane men," he
said. Il could tell you many
moving stories of the pain that
they have suffered in the infic-
tion Of severe sentences. 1t is
not altogether pleasant to be a
Judge.
THAT is why | cannot alto
gether credit IL story that was
told me the other day about a
Judge in the West. A criminal
on trial before this man, had been
found guilty. He was told to
rise, and the Judge said to him:
Have you ever been SEN
fenced to Imprisonment before ?
No, your Honor, said the
criminal, and he burst into tears.

Far-Reachine Affec tion.

Hal and Donald, little lads OF
five and seven years, would
sometimes manifest their affec-
ton for their parents by engag
ing in dialogue of this kind;
I love papa and mamma clear
to New York"
We'll, | love them clear to
Chicago.
L love them from here to
Omaha.
Thus they would go on by gi-
gantic strides until they reached
San Francisco, when one of them
would cross the Pacific at a
bound, and say triumphantly:
We'll, | love papa and mamma
clear to Japan. y
This would stump the other
boy, because both lads seemed to
think that Japan was the end of
all space. One evening when
the older boy had defeated his
brother by saying that he loved
his parents clear to Japan, y
the younger boy put on his
thinking cap, and presently he
announced with a ring of triumph
in his voice:
We'll, l just don t care if you
do love papa and mamma clear
to Japan. | love them to hell. y

FROM ALPHA

from this point, but the past
week has been an exciting one
for our neighborhood, and as we
find nothing in our home paper
about il Except last Saturdays s
advertisement in that paper) we
hope those of our neighbOrS who
had not heard of it, will be ad
vised through your journal,
which all are anxious to get on
account of its Eureka county
news.
Saturday, June 1, 1904, a Gus
todian direct from Sheriff Bur
dick appeared at the residence
of VIM. Whalen, and put on his
door notice of execution issued
out of the Third Judicial District
Court of Eureka county, Eureka,
issued May |, 1908, on account
of Judgment issued in said
Court, April 80, 1903, in favor Of
VIM. and Jennie Leighton (his
wife) plaintiffs, against VIM.
Whalen, defendant, for 81, 994. %,
with interest and with costs of
suit amounting to $362.S0, with
order for sale to take place on
Thursday, June 9, 1904.
1t seems it was not well UNDER
stood as to the sale, and there
were not as many as were ex.
pected in attendance. 1t is re-
ported that when the first Gus
todian of the Sheriff appeareds
that the English woman and her
husband would not have it,
and as they knew the defendant,
Whalen, to be a saint, (there
are others, however, who would
not agree to that, as they know
him, Whalen, to their sorrow)
and they stood ready to defend
his property, as they supposed,
against all comers, including the
laws legal officers.
She, Mrs. James, it seems was
very indignant that she had been
called a Portuguese woman,
when she is, she says, "of the
best blood of old Mother Eng
land Any way, the law pre-
vailed and the sale took place,
and Friday, when the buyers re
moved their purchases, 'tis said
the Whalen home looked as
though cyclone had struck it,
though Whalen's friend, Mr..
James, made vigorous efforts to
have him come. Report says
Whalen s answer came back,
through his attorney, Moynahad:
''Pay no attention to it; only an
other bluff.
No one expected him. All have
great sympathy for Mr.. and Mrs.
James, who are, of course, among
his many other victims. 1t is
said that they sold their nice
home, furniture, horse and bug
gy, etc, in Sacramento, Califor-
MIA, to come, and Mr.. James, who
is an engineer, gave up his valu-
able employment as engineer to
come here and get ready mill
Chat Whalen has nothing to do
with, which, by the way, it is
said, James has put in complete
order, so that the report might
go to Sacramento that Whalen
was ready to operate the mines,
when all miners who ever
looked at the mines knows there
is not enough ore there to run
any mill week.
Still Sacramento continues to
furnish the victim stockholders
for this great big swindler, who
has once been in the Missouri
penitentiary for selling fraudu-
lent stock on the same property,
and so far we have failed to see
any warning in any Sacramento
paper that would protect in any
way the citizens there. The
