one could tell but little of it now
Much of this, no doubt, was exaggera-
tion, this talk of a graveyard, of a
doubled street, of murders, of the
legal killings which served as arrests,
'Of the lynchings which once passed as
Justice. There was a crude story of
the first court ever held in Ellisville,
but of course it was mere libel to say
that it was held in the livery barn.
lRumor said that the trial was over
the case of a negro, or Mexican, or
Indian, who had been charged with
murder, and who was himself killed
in an attempt at lynching, by whose
hand it was never known. These
things were remembered or talked
about by but very few, these the old
timers, the settlers of two years ago.
Somewhere to the north of the town,
and in the center of what was de-
clared by some persons to be the old
cattle trail, there was reputed to be
visible a granite boulder, or perhaps it
was granite shaft, supposed to have
been erecteC with money contributed
by cattlemen at the request of Mrs.
DAILY, who kept the boarding house on
a back street. Some one had seen this
monument, and brought back word
that it had cut upon its face a singular

A MIRACLE TO ORDER.
Incident Turned Theatrical Tragedy
Into Comedy.

Into Comedy.
In the days of his youth M. Coque-
lin was ambitious, and the parts he
loved best to play were those in
which he died in full view of an appre-
ciative audience, for his art. He had
one of these roles one evening at the
Boulogne theater, and played it splen-
didly, getting a ringing round of ap-
plause as he fell dead upon the stage.
Then his troubles started.
The audiences applause woke up
a mosquito. which applied itself to NJ.

the corpse felt it must either scream
or scratch. Another actor. who play

dead M. Coquelin was young ensign.
was standing near the body, and had
to say: "See. then, how sad thing
is war! But now this youth was liv-
ing. Now he is dead-motionless for
all time! Nothing, save a miracle,
can give him life again"
But M. Coquelin could hold out no
longer. The mosquito was still bit
ing busily. and Coquelin had to sit
up and slap his leg. THE miracle has
happened cried the general, while
the audience laughed until it cried at
this too lively corpse.

CAUGHT FISH WORTH $500.
Fifth Known Specimen Of Sailhsh
Taken Of Florida Coast.


Taken Of Florida Coast.
The luckiest Cincinnati fisherman
this year is Mr.. Edward Hart, who
last week caught large "sailfish,
a few miles at sea. OFF Miami, Fla.
This fish is one of the rarest known
to science. Previous to the one caught
by Mr. Hart there have been but four
others captured: three of them are in
European museums and one at the
Smithsonian institution.
The one caught by the Cincinnatiar
weighs seventy-f1ve pounds and is a
perfect specimen Of his kind.
These sailfsh are peculiarly con
pocket from which they can put up
fibrous oval fin, which forms sail
for the fish when moving at the sur
face of the ocean. When the wind is
nlowing strong these fish can travel
at rapid rate when their sail is set.
On the under part of the fish is a
strong fin. which they can draw entire
ly into the body as they sail.
The long sword protruding from the
fish's head makes OF this tribe a for
midable enemy to the other fishes.
They are found only along the Flor
ida coast.
A few days after Mr.. Hart caught
his specimen, he saw two or three
others sailing on top of the water and
going at rapid rate.-Cincinnati En-.

dark and low and brown, with the eX-

the country were broken rows of little

of the hard earth. The untiring
wheels of windmills could be seen
everywhere at their work.
In the town of Ellisville the great
heap of buffalo bones was gone from
the side of the railroad track. There
were many wagons now. but none
brought in bones to pile up the rail
way; for even the bones of the buffalo
were now gone forever.
The Land Office was yet at Ellis
willie, and the rush of settlers was con-
'tinuous. Ellisville had thirty business
houses and two thousand inhabitants.
