There was a lively scrimmage
near the ferry this morning, when
a skunk was seen to emerge from
under the custom house and make
for the immigration building. A
reporter for THE HERALD scented
the battle from afar, and when
he drew nigh, Customs Officer
Maltby and Immigration Inspector
Notzen were in the midst of a
heroic charge (by proxy to dis
lodge the enemy. They followed
the animal to his lair and then the
fun waxed fast and odorous. A
well directed blow from a club in
the hands of the proxy of Officer
Maltby finished the fight, and the
remains were cast into the Rio
Grande' As one of the gallant
officers said to the reporter after
the odor of battle had subsidized,
that was one time the army of
bootblacks came in handy, for it
was two of their number who were
honored by holding the proxies of
the two officers named.

performed DR.. V. V. Pereneas, an
eminent physician Of New York, and
a cousin Of Dr.. Diaymeeter, was pay
ing the latter visit and volunteered
to aid in the surgical work, not, how
ever, tkaing the prominent part in it.
Radius was insane at the time, and
had very poor surroundings for so
delicate piece Of work, but the oper-
alton was carried through SUCCESSFULLY
in spite of difficulties, the appendix
was removed, and the patient immed-
lately improved and soon recovered.
But to the very great embarrass-
ment of both doctors the operation
was no sooner completed than DR..
Pcreneas missed large and beautiful
diamond setting out Of a ring which
he wore, and, after making a long
and careful search for it they came
to the conclusion that, possibly, it
had dropped when the appendix was
being taken out and had later been
sewcd up in him.
Nothing could be done about it,
however, until his health was rcstor-
ed so that he might be examined by
means Of N-rays, and then, indeed,
it was shown that the solution of the
mystery in regard to the disappear
ance of the diamond had been found,
for the jewel was clearly shown to be
located and cncysted in his body close
tn thn ,,nSrt u,harn f1,o
dangerouse appendix had been cut
off.
Dr. Pereneas was most delighted
when this discovery was made, for,
to say nothing of the instrinsic value
Of the stone, which was $4,000 it was
an heirloom in his family, and very
highly priced by him for this reason.
He at once suggested that another be
performed, offering to stand all the
expense thereof and to pay 500 in
addition for the pain and discomfort,
but he soon found that he was up
against new and serious proposition
for the thought that he had dia-
mond in his insides was a very inter-
esting one to Radius and he promptly
refused to be operated upon at all
unless he were paid the sum Of g.
600 for the privilege he thus accord
ed TO the eastern doctor.
This seemed regular outrage to
most people, but Radius cared moth
ing at all for public opinion and held
out stubbornly for his price. Law
yers were consulted, and they decid-
ed that an operation could not be
performed, even under writ of re-
plevin, and the diamond levied upon
under the writ by the sheriff, with
the aid Of surgeon; that the con-
stitutional guarantees upheld him in
retaining the jewel in his abdominal
cavity if he saw fit to DO SO.
There was, therefore, nothing for
it but to pay him the money, the
