Roller Skating.
In this breezy little village
Where the boys play bottle pool,
And the girls while bent on pillage,
Disregard the golden rule.
Where the long g-eared birds do warble
In the darkest hours of night,
Till man made out of marble,
Grinds his teeth and wants to fight.
There the denizens are happy,
For each eve till very late,
They are really rather nutty
When they sally forth to skate.
First they take feather pillow
And they tie it on their back,
Like the foam upon billow,
AS the breakers toss them back.
Then they gird their loins up tighter;
Reef their harness fore and aft,
And they stay right by their partner
Like two men upon a raft.
And to see them wheel in circles,
AS the gull into the lee,
Is to see the dance of Dantes
And the demons of Paree.
But we all have got the fever,
And Wen skate, without doubt,
Till the cows come up the river
And we're all in, down and out.

On The Rack.
Tho expression putting a witness
on the rack" has an ancient origin.
The courts had an unpleasant way OF
putting a refractory or unsatisfactory
witness on the rack. which was an
open wooden frame. upon which was
laid the victim. His wrists and ankles
were tied to two rollers at opposite
ends Of the frame The rollers were
then moved with levers until the ten
sion caused the body to rise level with
| the frame. and then questions were
addressed to the witness If he still
proved silent or IL his memory needed
refreshing. the rollers were moved
slowly until the wretch's bones started
| from the sockets.

Troubles Of r. w. Day and Alonzo

Troubles of r. w. Day and Alonzo
Shaw Aired 4 Scriber's Court.
Twenty-Five days in Jail and a fine
Of SIS was the sentence imposed up
on Alonzo Shaw by Justice Scriber,
Saturday afternoon as a result Of the
charges filed against Shaw by R. w.
Day, the Elkhorn lumberman, alleg-
ing the former had assaulted him.
The evidence tended to show Day
had not actually been struck, but
threats had been made against his
person and the sentence followed.
Pending the good behavior Of Shaw
the Jail sentence was suspended.
The incidents leading to the trou-
BILE between Day and Shaw had their
rise In the vicinity Of Silver City
where the former has a saw mill.
4le mill owner employed a man
named Hawley to cut and haul some
timber for him and he in turn hired
several men to assist in the work.
Shaw being among the number. When
the men came to Hawley for their
wages, they were unable to obtain
them, and we're given as reason that
Day had not paid Hawley. Then a
committee went to interview Mr..
Day upon the subject. and as the COM
plant alleged, Shaw lost his temper
during the discussion and committed
the assault, for which he was ar
rested and brought to this city by
Deputy Sheriff Tom Hewitt Thurs
day night. The case was originally
called in Judge joys court Friday,
but a change OF to Judge Scri-
ber's court was asked for and obtain
ed. Attorney Charles. W. Brown
represented Day and Attorney Frank
Bangs the defendant. The case has
been appealed to the Circuit court.
The men who worked with Shaw de-
cided to take legal steps in an en-
deavon to obtain the money due them,
In preference to taking possession
of the logs by force and laying them
selves open to mor trouble.
