the council adjourned to that date, Thursday night.
 Following the discussion on the ques- ton of pigeons, chickens etc, the mat ter of the new pump ordered some time ago by the city for it's pumping plant at the water works, from Byron Jack son & Go. of Oakland, Cal, was brought up. The time set for the pump to arrive here has long since passed and there has been some com munication between the city clerk and the company relative to the delay. The company informs the city that many orders must be filled before the city pump can be given attention; that it is hard matter to tell just when it can be shipped. With that situa- tion. the marshal was instructed to prepare for a thorough cleansing and repairing of the pump that is now in use and this will take pace at some date in the near future.
 Birchett Bros. were granted permis- sion to place a set of wagon scales on 9th street near their place of business.

WouId-Be Lynchers FoiIed.

One night the past week a body OF
armed men rode into Bishopville, the
county seat of Lee county, and made
a desperate effort to lynch negro
named Jim Dessaussure, who, some
weeks ago, attempted to assassinate n
man named Barnes, shooting him
through the lungs.
In some way the sheriff got wind
Of the mob's intentions and prepared
to resist it. When the mob neared
the Jail volleys were exchanged with
the sheriff and his deputies. Seeing
five officers on guard, and that they
we're outwitted, the crowd dispersed
without blcodshed.
During the day the prisoner secured
a rope and letting it down to the
ground, a confederate placed an iron
oar upon It, which was drawn IN. AS
the ialler entered his cell, the negro
made a murderous assault upon him:
but being a powerful man, the Jaller
overpowered his assailant. nearly beat
ing tile negro to death. The incident
caused much excitement in the town
ard was the immediate cause OF the
ATTEMPTED lyncbing.

and then he started to dance.

A policeman arrived on the scene and

The man braced himself with sud-

feared their masters fit Of anger; and
il was great relief to everybody
when it was announced that the little
Simon stood outside the castle gate.
II. le Due ordered the servants to
bring Simon into the dining-room at
once; he took the melon out of the
basket himself, smelt it, then smiled;
the odor pleased him. Then he cut
into it. tasted it; JOY spread over his

He took another piece. A second

cried "the enemy have surrounded the

advance"
In a minute, in a minute. Let me
finish this melcn.' But the cavalry
advanced to the attack without May
enne's order, to be routed by the horse
men of Navarro
A third officer entered the dining
hall, besought Mayenne to put him
self at the head of his troops.
Yes, yes" he replied, I'm coming
now, There are only four slices left.
The combat continued at the foot
of the castle hill; the infantry were
fighting hand to hand. Suddenly the
army of Mayenne turned and sought
safety in fight. Navarre's troops
broke down the gate of the castle;
Mayenne had dallied too long over
his melon! He had lost the day, and
only escaped falling into the victor's
hands by kurrying through an under
ground passage leading into the open
country.
Navarro entered the dining hall;
there was no one there but little ST.
mon, waiting for his money; the melon
was still unpaid for. Henry looked at
the table and saw that the platter held
only melon-rirds.
See, gentlemen" he laughed, turn
ing TO his officers, m. le Due has not
had the manners to leave us one single
slice of that fine melon"
Sire" put in little Simon. Il Will
give you just as good a one tomorrow,
if you wish it. But, if you please, not
at the same price! l have not seen

A later day saw Henry ". crowned
King of France. Little Simon was re-

BRAND OF THE TAlLLESS PIG.
The Montana Pioneer Recalls Feat
of sharoshootine in Pioneer Days.

The Montana Pioneer Recalls a Feat
of shar,shooting in Pioneer Days.
Looking over a brand register the
other day reminded me of an event
which occurred at Fort Benton m
1856" said the Montant pioneer to
group of friends. 'The story serves
to illustrate two things-frst, the un-
erring accuracy of Al. B. Hamilton's
aim, and again the expedients tnat
are resorted tao in order to procure
an original brand.
Hamilton was the first justice OF
the peace in Northern Montana. HIS
commission was issued by Gen. Thos.
Francis Meagher, the leader OF the
famous civil war Irish brigade, who
was then acting as governor OF the
Territory of Montana. Hamilton had
charge of the American Fur Com
pany's post at Fort Benton, and the
feat to which shall refer may have
had something to do with his election
as sheriff of Chouteau county in later
years.
Il have heard of cattlemen using
frying-pan. railroad fish plates and
other unusual shapes in metals as
branding irons, but, after all, think
Hamilton's was perhaps the most
original.
THE company by which Hamilton
was employed had about thlrty-fVe
head of hogs that were continually
getting mixed up with the porkers BE-
longing to others, and he determined
to put a brand upon his animals that
would prevent any chance of mistaken
identity.
With some little difficulty Hamil-
ton got Eli of the company's hogs
in an enclosure, went to the ofhce,
secured his IA revolver and a supply
of cartridges and seated himself on
the fence surrounding the pigs. With
out getting closer than ten feet to
single one of the animals, Hamilton
in the course of perhaps fifteen min
utes had shot the tail from each. He
did not waste more than half dozen
shots in doing it, nor was a single hog
injured save that its tail had been
clipped off clean That feat gave him
the title of champion shot of the Ter
ritory."-New York Sun.

Fine Perfumes Kept in Safe.

"The perfumery business multiplies
itself by five in December" a per-
fumer is quoted in. the New Orleans
Times-Democrat as saying. HE who
does a $500 weekly business does a
S250O on them.
The altar Of roses is not the most
expensive ingredient we use. There
are certain crystals that cost $45 an
ounce, and then weigh heavy at that.
Musk bags are also costly. A musk
bag is a tobacco brown affair, about
the size of a walnut. 1t costs $18
usually-a little more than its weight
in gold.
"Perfumers keep much Of their stock
in the safe, along with the books and
money. They have to when they are
continually buying packets no bigger
than a pound Of sugar that are yet
worth s400 and $500"

Do Nurses Gossip?

On receiving their diplomas at the
New York Training School forty-one
nurses, as mentioned in yesterdays
Daily Mail, took an oath not to dlvulge
the secrets of the sick room. The
British Medical Journal says that the
incident might furnish hint for
nursing schools nearer home.
Inquiries yesterday suggest that
there is a good deal Of undesirable gos-
siping among nurses. Complaints
such as are made, refer more to pri-
vate nurses. 1t was generally admit
ted that many Of them carry stories
from one sick-bed to another, and are
somewhat ready to discuss their pre-
vious cases-London Mail.

SEVEN HURLED To DEATH.
Express Train Crashes Into Wagon
Containing Three Generations OF
Family on Way to Reunion.

Seven persons representing three
generations of one family were killed
Saturday on the Philadelphia and
Reading railroad at Hass Crossing.
one miles south of Sunbury, Pa.
The dead: G. H. Neidig, aged 63
years; Clarence Neidig, aged A.; Silas
Neidig, aged Sc, son Of the first nam
ed; Mrs. Clarence Neidig, aged 80,
and their three children, Mary, aged
i years: Blanche, aged 6, and Gilbert,
aged 2. All of the victims were IN
stantly killed with the exception OF
Blancne, who died later at hos
pital.
There was to have been family
reunion at the home of G.. H. Neldlg,
at Augustayille, small village near
bv, and the latter had driven to
the home of his sons to convey the
party to Augustaville.
At Hass Crossing the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad and the Philadelphia and
Reading railroad run parallel short
distance apart. A curve renders one
road invisible from the other and to
this fact the accident was due.
The wagon containing the seven
persons had crossed the Pennsylvania
tracks and had just reached the Read
ing tracks when IN express train'
northbound from zkanlokin, ran into
the vehicle. The occupants OF the
wagon were thrown or dragged man.
feet by the locomotive and their bod
les were terribly mangled.
