Hammondspoft, An?. 19. Recent oc
curences in theCattla creek country had
mused some coJnoas between Squire Abel
Filler and others of the district. The John
Hues lawsuit to recover damages for a bear
htalleged the defendant had stolen, bad
mde hard feeling, the squire having de
cied against tbeplaintiff, and then Squire
Ael had refused to issue a writ of habeas
ccpus asked for by Reub Fois, the shingle
waver, acting as counsel for Gazely Owen,
cupelling the production in court of a dis
pied ooonskin as a witness in an impor
tat suit, aud it was reported that Reub
hi commented somewhat harshly on the
eaon of the squire in bis official capacity,
ail spoken slightingly of him as a man and
feow citizen. Consequently, when Reub
Fu came along by the squire’s office the
oter evening, where the squire sat smoking
bfcpipe on the door step, and sat down on
th bench near the door, the squire didn’t
sem to see him.
' ’Devenin’, squire,” said Reub, blandly.
' ’Devenin 1 !" grunted Squire Abel.
This weather makes things grow, I tell
ye’ said Reub, clasping his hands around
on knee and looking over the squiro’s field
of orn across the road.
That’s w’at it’s for 1” snapped the sqnire,
reching over to knock the ashes out of his
pip against the door jam.
.eub was silent for awhile, and then
sal:
\V hat d’ye ca’e’late your corn’ll turn out
tbi year, squire?”
'Common, ord’nary yaller corn, same ez
ovrybcdy else's!” replied the squire, short
am huffy, as he refilled his pipe.
‘No; but ez to size?' explained Reub, ap
paently not noticing the absence of cor
diaity in the squire’s manner. "How’ll it
rut?”
'Not less’n four pecks to the bushel I” re
plid the squire, striking a match with an
emjhatio sweep on the door sill, that made
it s:ap as if in sympathy with his mood.
“Fill it, though?" said Reub, in simulat
ed sirprise. ‘W’y that’ll be a bigger crop
tb’n usual fer you, won't it, squire? l’vo
heed th’t your corn never run more’n three
peels to the bushel, f’m them th’t has
bou;ht it.”
Smire Abel’s manner changed from snap
pist indifference to iustaut wrath.
‘Who tol’ ye that?,’ he cried. “Tell me
wh> be was, an’l’ll hev the law on him 1
But ye needn’t tell me, for I know him, ’n’
t’wi’n’t nobody less th’n that consarned
Join Hinesl Jis’ let him come in my court
agit fer jestlce, V I’ll three peeks to the
buslel him I He’ll git jestice tiil the scales’ll
ratte! I’ll fine him far feichin’ suit, ’n’ I’ll
, fine him fer not wincin’ it arter fetohin’ it,
’Vl.keez not bind him over to court fer
•contemptin’of me! I’ll three pecks to the
buslel him, consarn him.”
"But say, squire," explained Reub as soon
ash could get in a. word, ,'Jtwan’t John
Hints ez tol' me! He hain’c —
“Don’t set there ’a’ conterdlct me!" ox
claimed Squire Abel. “I say it was John
Hints, V that’s all th’ be to the case! You
Bet there ’n’ conterdict ’n’ try to bullyrag
me. n’ I know why! It’s jist because I
wouldn’t isshy that babbis corpse for the
coonskinj t’other day! But look a-’ ere,
Reuben: Don’t yar go too fur! Don’t yar
tamper with the law. an’ don’t yar raise the
dander of its exyeutors too high! Yar talk
too much fer a shingle-weaviu’ lawyer, Reub
, Foss!
r. And Squire Abol breathed very hard and
pulled so fast and vigorously at his pipe
that the fitful glow of the burning tobacco
in the bowl rivalled the fireflies whose
twinkling lights spangled the gathering
darkness. Reub had grown a little hot him
self at the squire’s pointed remarks and da
flant manner, and there might have been a
scene ia front of the squire’s office soon if it
had not chanced that Ben Greer came along
at that moment. Ho was on his way home,
two miles up the creek. Ban is an old
huntor and trapper, and ho takos but little
interest in anything outside of his fa
vorite calling.
“Hullo, squire!” he exclaimed, stopping in
front of the office. “Is that you, Reub Foss?
Hullo, Reub!”
The response to the old woodsman’s greet
ing was not much more than a grunt from
squire and Reub. although Ben Greer is
popular with everybody.
“IVull, by gravy!” exclaimed the old
hunter. “Must be you fellers has been
jackin’ fer deer ’n’ come back skunked.
That alius makes me glummer th’n a fuuer’l,
too. W ’at’s the rumpus, auyho w?”
“Only a leetle argvment ’bout the
squire’s corn crop," said Reub, coding
down.
“An’ a leotur’ on the law an’ its exycu
tors, ’cording to the statutes made ’n' per
vided,” added the squire, yielding to the
cheery influence of the old hunter.
“Durn the law ’n’ the statutes!” exclaimed
Ben. “An’ durn corn—'cept ez to its juice!
Thase more land bein’ wasted by cuttin’ olf
the trees ’n’ drivin’ out the deer ’n' the b’ar
'u’ usin’ of it for crops th’uorter be allowed,

An’ ez fer law, jes’ see w’at they go ’n’ do
ag’in huntin' ’a’ fishin’ ’n’ trappiii’ till a fel
ler feols like goin’ out ’n’ stickiu’ his head in
one o’ bis own b’ar traps ’n’ tetchin’ her off.
I’ll tell ye w’at I’ll do if they don’t quit
spilein’ the woods in rnakin’ so much law.
I’ll jist buy a tioket for Aishy or Affarky,
V go to livin’ ’mougst the lions ’n’ the tag

nuckle outen a big uu last week, squire. An’
ol’ socker!”
"No!” said the squire. “Buck or doe?”
"Now, hain’t you a honey cooler!” sold
Ben, and he talked as if ho were disgusted.
“D’y think I’m gittin’ soft in the conk,
squire? Here's you a settin’ here, an exy
eutor o’ the law; an’ here’s the law a sayin’
th’t if I’m ketched knockin’ over a deer

then you up ’n’ ast me if it were a buck or

In the jug. Oh, yes, Benjamin Greer’s jist
a doin’ o’ that.”
‘By gum, Ben,” said the squire. “I
*a n’t thiukin’ o’ that! It wa’n’t a deer,
then?”
“Deer be dumed!” growled Ben. “B’ar!”
, oxciaimod the squire.

’“Shoot him! Shoot him!’ Lige hollered,

• ■ I couldn't ha’ shot the side of a barn

sarned comical that I had all I k'd do to

iayin’ back au’ larfln’, ’zif I’d bust, w’ilo he
thort he were jist on the p’int o’ beiu’ eat
by a b’ar, seemed to knock all the voice
outen Lige, fer he never said another word,
but kep’ prancin’ an’ jiggiu’ it around on
top o that stump ’zif he’d made up his mind
to dance ez long ez he could, an’ then tum
ble off ’n' be chawed.
“Ihe b’ar didn’t pay no more ’ton‘ion to

big un, Bartin, ’n’ at last the circus got
kinder old to me,’n’ Lige looked like he
were ’bout on the p'int o’ droppin’ off, 'n'
so I put a couple o’ slugs in bruin ’n’ he laid
down. Lige slid down from his stump, ’n’
tha were only one reas on w’y ha didn’t pitch

right thar ’n’ then, he were 30 powerful
mad. But Lige know’d ho couldn’t do it,
u so ho jaw’d a spell ’n’ then cooled down
n’ told mo how it happened.
“ ‘i hain’t no hunter,’ says Lige, V that’s
the truth, ‘but I got it :n my head.’ says he,
‘th’t most anybody k’d kill a coon. So I bor
ried a gun ’u’ Si Lighter's dog—that's him

Me’n’the dog hunted more’n four hours,’
says he, * ’n’ never see the sign of a coon.

‘n’ thar stood that sockin’ ol’ bar. I dropped
back to give the dog a show,’ says Lige,
‘but the dog didn’t seem to want to take it,
* ’n’ the ba’r kim a tearin’ outen them brush
like a hurrycane. He went fer tha dog,’
says Ligo, ‘ V I bauged away both bar’ls at
the b’ar, but it only seemed to cheer him on in
his little fracas with the dog. Seem’ that he
wore inakin’ short work o’ my borriod dog,’
says Lige,‘l thort the best tiling 1 k’d do wore
to climb fer higher land,’ says he, 4 ’n’ I
skinned up that stump. If I’d ben a second
later I’d never got there, fer the b’ar’s ciaw
grazed my heel ez I drawed it up. That’s
all they bo to it,’ says Lige, * ’copt th’t tha
b’ar had me up that stump four hours ’fore
you showed up, ’n’ I hev my doubts,’ says
ho, ‘wutber I k’d ha’ stood it more’n four
hours longer,’ says ho.
“Wull,” continued Ben, !‘me ’n’ Lige got
the b’ar hum, Vho were a 3iXJ-poupder.
Ez to that law p’int, now; who did that
b’ar b’long to by rights, me or Lige
Mooler?”
“You, o’ course!” said Reub Foss.
“A healthy court o’ jestice you’d be!” ex
claimed the squire. “Cordin' to the law and
eckitv o’ the case, ’n’ to all perceedents, the
b’ar belong’d to both you ’n’ Lige, in ekal
ondivided halfs!”
"That’s your law, is it?” said Ben. “Wull,
then, I say durn your law ag’in. That
b’ar didn’t belong to nuther me nor Lige,
by gravy! By rights it b’longed to Si
Righter, the man that owned the berried
dog, ’n’ we give it to him, too, by gravy!”
Then Ben bade the ’squire aud Reub good
night and went on his way.
“Ben may be all right on that p’int,
Reub,” said the ’squire, “but ’taint ’cordiu’
to law ’n’ eokity—’n’ peroesdent, ’n’ it won’t
hold!’'
‘ ‘Course it won’t, ’squire!’’ said Reub, and
they walked toward the crossroads tavern.
A PENNILESS DOCTOR.
Arrested for Chloroforming the Mem
phis Banker.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Memphis, Aug. 15.—C01. R. Dudley
Fraser, the richest banker in the city and
president of the Memphis City Bank, was
induced Thursday to visit room 304, Gayoso
hotel, ostensibly to transact business with
one calling himself J. A. Morris of New
Orleans, who represented himself as a
brother of tho Morris of the Louisiana Lot
tery Company. On the second interview
the stranger drew two pistols and demanded
that Mr. Fraser sign a check for $5,000.
Col. Fraser refused, whereupon,
saying that his family was starv
ing and he was desperate, he re
duced tha sum to 8500. Col. Fraser in
dorsed the stranger’s check then, but in a
style that he knew tho teller would not
honor. The check was not cashed, and the
stranger then chloroformed the colonel and
robbed 'him of SOS. The colonel's cri?s
brought help, but the robber told the pro
prietor that his friend had the jimjams. and
the colonel was so scared he was afraid to
contradict bim.
The funniest part was tbat after the rob
ber departed, the hotel attaches kept the
colonel a prisoner under the impression
that be was insane. The story was such a
wild and woolly one that many refused to
believe it, but the check was there to show
for Itself.
The denouement came to-night in the ar
rest of Dr. J. E. Clemens, a practicing phy
sician of this city, at his home on Vance
street. On Aug. 3 Clemens closed his front
shutters, tent his wife to Holly Springs and
putaaign out: “Will be away from the
city several weeks.” Then he wont to house
keeping on tho back-door plan. This cor
roborates the story that he wa- hard pressed
financially, his avowed reason for pretend
ing to be out of the city being to keep cred
itors from the door. Early Thursday morn
ing Clemens left bis house leaving a note
with a neighbor that he would not return
till night. It was early Thursday morning
that Morris registered at the hotel. That
evening at dark his neighbors noticed that
bis beard was dyed. Friday morning they
observed that he had his beard amputated
entirely.
These and other suspicious circumstances
led to his arrest. His wife told the detec
tive that he was out of the city at first, but
afterward produced him. Neither ho nor
his wife expressed any surprise nor asked
any questions as to the cause of the arrest.
At police headquarters, in spite of his
change of whiskers, he was identified by
tho hotel exployes, and in addition the
■mall valise he carried was identified by the
housekeeper.
JAPANESE FLIRTATIONS.
The Almond-Eyed Maidena Ara Coy,
But the Youths Don’t Mind That.
From the San Francisco Call.
“The Japanese are nothing if not progres
sive,” said L. J. Bruco, who has just re
turned from the Orient. "American customs
are coming into vogue over there, and even
our methods of flirtation, with some slight
modifications, becoming popular. The Jap
anese umideu is exceedingly coy, and it is
difficult for a foreigner to gain an entrance
to society; but flirtations are by no means
uncommon.”
“How* Well, if a young man sees a
protty Japanese girl on tho street be may
follow her at a respectful distance. Pres
ently he will meet an oidory woman, to
whom he must imuart the information that
be has lost his heart and is miserable. The
old woman will ask what has become cf
his heart, and ho must point out
the girl, at the same time slipping
a quarter in the former’s hand. She will
disappear, and in a few moments re
turn with the information that if he will be
at a certain fashionable tea house on the
following day he may recover his heart.
The pretty maiden will appear with a
ebaneron, and the young man is at libortv
to address her. Siie will probably meet
him often in this way, but always with a
protectress, whose vigilance is never re
laxed. If the aspiring youth is circumspect,
he may eventually call, and so gradually
work his way into society.”
“How do toc like that young Ya!e man you
employed as a messenger. Mr. Barkinsr”
"He’s a very good follow,” returned the
banker. “He lots ms do pretty much as I
pleas a."—Harper's Eatar.

WATTERSON A PIRATE KING.
How He Eummed the Tune Over a
Game of Poker.
Nat Goodwin’s most celobrated game of
poker, says a New York writer in the
Washington Post, was tho historical one in
which Col. Henrv' Watterson, of the
Louisville Courier-Jour rial, figured. It
took place one night in a room in the Mor
ton House, then a great resort for profes
sional people, on Union square, in Now
York city. Edward Harrigan, Tony Hart.
Watterson and Goodwin were the partici
pants. Col. Watterson had been to the
theater and hsd witnessed the first American
production of Gilbert and Sullivan’s op.-ra,
“The Pirates of Penzance.” He had en
joyed the performance hugely, as he said,
aud he was particularly taken with the bass
solo, “I Am a Pirate King,” which he per
sisted in singing or humming during the
progress of the game.
Biiiy Barry, now of Barry and Fay,
came into the room where they were play
ing in search of Harrigan, aud when the
two had finished their business Barry stood
watching the play.
He had never before seen Col. Watterson,
and did not know who he was. So when the
great editor began to talk about a game ho
had onco been in with Gen. Grant, Barry
regarded him curiously, as though he be
lieved him tolbe a brilliant liar, and, behind
his hand, he hoarsely whispered to Good
win :
“I 3ay, Nut, who is ‘his slobs?’ ”
Mr. Goodwin conoeaied a smile and in
formed Barry that tho gentleman was a
great editor from Kentucky, while “his
slobs,” who had overheard the query,
looked daggers at the little Irish comedian
out of his better eye. Barry felt ashamed
of himself and sought to square himself with
“the guy that writes notices,” as he called
him, by asking permission to sit in to the
game. It was granted.
Tbe inevitable jackpot came along. Col.
Watterson took up his cards, passsd them
slowly in review before his good eye. softly
hummed a bar of “The Pirate King,” and
opened the jackpot for the limit.
Mr. Barry, who held kings and tens, re
mained. Mr. Goodwm began on two aces
and Messrs. Harrigan and Hart passed ou
and quietly surveyed the scene.
Col. Watterson requested the favor of one
card, declaring, at tt.e same time, in a piano
voice, that “ho was a pirate king.” Mr.
Barry asked to be helped to the same num
ber, while Mr. Goodwin drew three paste
boards. To his delight, Mr. Barry discov
ered that be had secured a third tea, and,
consequently, was the proud possessor of a
ten full on kings. Cautiously he bet a mod
est sl, which Mr. Goodwin called, in a hope
less sort of way. Col. Watterson, still
softly murmuring his favorite air, raised it
the limit, after shutting his hand before his
perfect eye.
Secure in tho possession of a ten full Mr.
Barry retorted in kind, and Mr. Goodwin
passed out.
Col. R'aterson raised back the limit. So
did Mr. Barry. This exchange of oourtesios
was kept up until Mr. Barry began to grow
a little uncertain.
Finally Mr. Barry threw in a wad of bills
and said:
“Well, I’ll havo to call you. I have a
ten full ou kings,” laying them down.
There was a burst of melody tbat shook
the room. Laying down four large jacks,
the oolonel reached for the plethoric pot, as
he roared out, at the top of his great voioe:
“I am a pirate king,”
And Barry regarded him with an expres
sion of mingled disgust and resentment as
be growled:
•'l’ll be— If I don’t think you are!” while
Goodwm, Horrigan aud Hart rolled upon
tbe floor in convulsions.

Offieersof the Great Northern estimate
that the volume of grain to be bandied this
year is over 30,000,000 bushels more than
last year. Its officers are instructed to bo
prepared to handle 1”,(100,000 bushels mare
than last year, that is au aggregate of
28,000,000. Other nurtliwestern roods figure

The Locomotive Engineer says: On one
of tho fastest runs tho eub try has heard, of
iu some time there was a little side incident
that, had it been known back in the coaches,
would hnve caused a stampode for the hhll
cord. Shortly after starting the enfsiueer
discovered that the bolt that holds tho inside
pair of guides to the cylinder head was loose;
he watched anxiously, knowing that a stop
and a disconnect ineaut a bad reputation for
him as a flyer; he cabas to the coudnsidn
that the outside pair of guide? would JutW
thu crosshe id, aud that tbe bolt was simply
jarring ioosa. It grew steadily worse, anil
finally drooped out; the top guide swung in
toward the frame, but the engiueer kept up
ills speed and kept his eye on the guide. Tho
giDbs flew off the crosshead and the guides
soon left tbe yoke to help ballast tho truck,
aud the engine ran on in this condition in
the neighborhood of 100 miles, reaching a
speed far in excess of sixty miles per hour.
Ihe engineer was not censured by tbe offl
c®fs—because he was successful. Suppose
the other guide had let go? There might
have been a ?
The Southern Pacific Company has long
had a serious problem to consider iu obtain
ing a proper and cheap fuel for its locomo
ti veg. No bed of coal has ever been discovered
in California that could furnish a supply of
proper fuel sufficient for this company, and
thousands upon thousands of dollars have
bean spent in trying to open up coal mines
on the side of Mount Diable, but always
without success. Tho coal now used comes
mostly from Victoria, and is brought
to West Oakland in steamers built
especially for that trade, and from
Most Oakland the coal is sent over
the road. Coal is by far the largest item
of expense that the Southern Pacific Com
pany is called upon to stand; aud the com
pany has now turned its attention to tho
manufacture of artificial fuel. A plant lias
been purchased in England and the various
parts are beginning to arrive at the Long
wharf, where it will be set up. It is for tbe
manufacture of an artificial fuel from coal
dast and asphaltum, and if this process is
as successful on this coast as it has been on
the continent it will be an euormous saving
fer the Southern Pacifio Company. The
machinery was manufactured in England,
and is being shipped to be set up.
