"Is U against the rules of the Jail to let mo
sco and talk to the prisoners ! "
It was u pleasant faced young woman who
piopounded the ijuestloii to Marshal Temple-
ton In the ofilco of the city Jail yostci'dtiy
afternoon.
"Xot at till,1' replied the pollto aud kind
hearted ofllcer , "but there arc no prisoners
MCI out this hour. They .no all out on the
.streets at wuik. "
"Would you objcut to me coming In hero on
Sunday morning and Holding o bilof relig
ious st.-ivico for the henelit of the prisoners 1"
"Not at nil. "
"I desire only to read Iho blhlo to them and
talk to them for a few moments.1
"You shall have the m'ivllego , and if I am
notheiolllllcavo orders for the deputy
maishal to show you o\ory courtesy possible ,
And I will also tell the piisoners of your com
ing mid havcthum pioparctl for tbo services. "
The l.idy was about to thank tbo inu-shul
and rctlro when the patrol wagon drove up
with a very drunlton man fora passenger.
"If jou wait a moment I will show you
what Jond of peoplu \\o leceho
hero and how wo receho them , "
remarked Jlarshal 'lemiilcton to
tlioludr. Tlio invitation \\.is accepted and
siio toolc a seat behind the wire screen In tbo
niiiisliiil's pilvateofllco. The ilrunlcen man
\\as brought in bolstered up between two
stalWiiitoHliers. His at'tlculation w.is so
thick that he could Hcarcely gl\o his inline ,
lie was limp as a raff , and hail to bo held up
to tlio desk whllo ho was being bontuhcu.
lie was jocularly asked by thoseigeant if ho
was chunk. A ribald or profane answer
sprang to his lips , but befoie he could utter
it he was tuitiecl around until his bleary eyes
fell upon the lady. Instantly thu in
stinct of the gentleman predominated. His
limp vertebra stittened up. The look of Ue-
lianco ( jsivo place to uu expression of sbaino.
Tins liuly was looking at him with au expres
sion of Intense pity in which there was no
Itaco of dlsKtist. The Intoxicated mua road
tlio i > ltvliifglniiiiu mid was more tliuu half
sobered in an Instant. A moment later ho
turned toward her with an effort and asked
with a voice ( .hat had half : i sob in It.
"Lady. 1 do not know your nnino , bull sco
that you do not look upon mo with disgust.
Do you think I tun drunlH"
"Yes , I do , " sadly.
"Well , It will bo the last timojou or any
body else will ever see mo in % ueh a con
dition.11
The little incident showed the effect the
picscnco of the lady who came there through
sympathy and with n itesiro to do good hud
upon oiio man , and the marshal was very
inrch encouraged In the belief that If the
lady \\ill keep her appointment and hold
services for the benollt of tbo hotdo tlut will
bo withered on the Saturday night
rouiid up a incut amount of genuine
good will bo accomplished. The
piisoners will bo put upon their best behav
ior , and the sorvUes on Sunday morning by
the .s\\oot-fnccd and guntle-volcecl little
uoiiHin will bu an event In the history of the
old Jail that will bo at le.ist attended with
pleasant consequences. If good rciults follow
thu Horvlcos will doubtless bo continued regu
larly every Sunday , and tlio wbUky-soukcd
wieckswith aching beads who usually 1111
tlio Jail on Sunday morning will receive a
lesson that Is new to them. The lady Is the

Her Man 1)1(1 the Stilihin * ; .
"Julia Smith. "
A husky and very black womn waddled
Into the witness box.
'I object to any evidence from thh woman
against the defendant , " promptly declared
Judge Aylcswoit'i ' , tbo attorney for Sam
Davis , the colored rnun who is being tried
for having savagely cstabbod a white man
named Albert Smith at a Sunday dance
nt Ilig lake last May. "I object
on the ground that this woman who calls her-
belt Julia Smith Is the wife of Davis , and
cannot testify agalnsthlm. "
Then Julia was nittxitloned , She admitted
that .she had lived with Davis for two years ,
and they had been occupying the iclatlonship
of luisbuut and \'ifo , but denied that she hail
ever been married to him. She had been
married once to another man , and a divorce
u.is not granted until after she had gone to
live with Davis. The nttoinoys each Insisted
on n different view of her legal status ,
Judge AyleMvorth claiming that sbo was
Davis' wife under the common law. c\cn If
no ceicmony hud been luirformod. The prose
cuting attorney claimed Unit it could not bo a
common law nmi rlagc , tor she was not di
vorced from her husband when she -\\cut to
Uvo with Davis.
Judge Mucy went into his little room and
got some more law When liu returned ho
decided that .Julia could proceed with her
evidence against Sam ,
Then Judge Ajleswoith made a proffer to
show by Snm and by other witnesses that
they bad held themselves out to the puhho as
husband and wife and she was ipcogaUed us
.Mrs. Davis bv all who know them. The
com t decided to let t ho defendant te.stlf v on
this point , but bu rod out othorj , Sam'took
tbo stand , mid wlien asked If ho and Julia
had held themselves out as husband ami wife
ho stupidly aiuwcied "No. " Then as a for
lorn hope ho was asked if ho considered Julia
his wife , anil ho ansucrcd la like manner ,
This knocked the tangles all out of the ques
tion and Ju la went on with her testimony.
She \v us at the diinco , Shu was executing
ft Jig or clog dance by herself , with a knlfo hi
one hand and a partly devoured cojoanut in
the other , when the tlxht built o out and in
terrupted her tcrn-ilchorom gracefulness ,
She uw lUvis chasing Smith , and after
wards Davis told her that ho was the ono
who did the cutting. On cross examination
she admitted that she was n llttlo ml It oil ut
her faaiu because ho wouldn't Rlvo her money
for a dress , nnd even refused her
a quarter to rush the growler. She wasn't
mad at htm though , and didn't ' swear against
him on Hint nccount.
Smith's ' wound wasntorrlbto onr > , extend
ing from the spine around the body to the
front of the abdomen , a distance of seventeen
inches. Itvas a wonder that ho ever lived
to tell thu story of his slashing.

The attempt of tbo Twin city street rail
vvnj company to .secure a charter In Council
BluITs is uiousing considerable ! discussion.
Theio Is a general disposition to favor any
and alt enterprises whicti contain even a
piomisoto finthurtho liitctcsts of the city.
Council Bluffs has been gonetous to a fault.
In Its eagerncsstoget u wagon bridge it sad
dled a heavy tax upon itself , nnd when it
became nwuio that a 5-ccnt stiect car iaio be
tween the two cities was a needful help to
populate the bottoms , it then ascertained that
tbo only hope of securing it was by coaxing.
The charter to the present motor company
was iron clad. Tlio hope of securing compe
tition to accomplish what coaxing nnd thic.it-
cning does not bring about leads many to bo
ciper to make a move in that direction , even
if it bo ouly a charter on paper. There
are sonic who arc waking up , however , to
tbo danger of giving charters' lor the asking.
Itlui" been piovedin several instances thnt
tbo city has been too ready to give charters
and rights of way They are easily got but
not so easily got i-id ot . The city legislators
aio being taught alittlo caution , and they
are listening i.ithcr more patiently than for
merly to protests and warnings.
The charter now under discussion before
the council is meeting with some opposition.
Some of it uiises from corpoiatlons who have
the sellish but natural desire to protect their
own Interests , which would bo appiuently
jcopardircd by the granting of such n sweep
ing charter as Is now asked for. Other op
position is inaclo on general principles. It is
urged that tbo charter asks for too much. It
covcrj , every street hi the city , nnd some
far beyond where there Is any hettlenicnt in
fact , mid little prospect of any for years.
Still , if convinced that the company really
means business , and that it will in fact build
nnd operate the road to tbo advantage of the
oily , tlio city will Lu Touiul tube willing and
liberal. In view ot the history of some past
charters and the suspicions which are
diiectcdto this one , tlio city council should
bo very cautious and should Investigate fully ,
It has been suggested that , in considering
this nnd futuio charters those seeking to pro-
cute them should bu culled upon to give to
the city a reasonable bond guaranteeing that
tbey will uoo the dinner for tbepuiposes
avowed , nnd will proceed practically under
it , thus giving the city some assurance of
peed taith. To companies really meaning
business it seems that such a requirement
would provo no hnidship. and it would often
prevent the Issuance of charters which sim
ply tie up the city and bring none of the ad
vantages promised ,

created in Iron and steel circles by the an
nouncement that the Philadelphia gas com
pany had decided to discontinue suppljIiiB
natural gas to the puddling fuinaces for

of the order. ' 1 his will necessitate enormous
expense In cbnngiiig their construction back
for the use of coal. In addition there will bo
a heavy lutded cost owing to the higher prlco
of coal , as most of the companies b.ut con
tracts with the gas people at a very low rate.
The gus people claim that the move
was not made on account of any
scarcity of gas , but because it can
bo used to much gieater advantage in tirivalo
houses and at much higher rates. It is esti
mated that the dullv consumption of gas in
the city now is 5 ( 0iKXo)0 , ) ! ) cubic Icct a day ,
equal to 'jn,0M ( tons of roal. The shutting oil

It is nfitmngb fuut in regard to Now
Zealand that llio country is almost en
tirely lacking , ' in indigenous unlmnls.
The only mammals it possessed before
the arrival of Captain Cook in 17i ( ( ) ,
ways the author of "Now Zealand After
Fifty Years , " wcro the kioro a little ,
dark-brown rat and two voiy small bats.
TRo kioio in now a rnro and very bhy
animal , but thuro are times when It
innkcB it nppeiini'ico in vast numbers ,
coming nobody knovvb vshunvo and going
nobody knows whither.
Thveo or four years ago nueh n visita
tion of rntb oceuried on tlio west coast
of ono of the islands ; n countless swarm
of these little creatures travollcil nlou"1
the Bhpio for a distance of 150 miles , nil
going ono way and nil moving us fast us
they could. .Many of them died of hun
ger by the vvuy , and they were nil ex-
nosed to the terrible attaoks from a lat
lurgor and stronger than themselves.
After passing in n ceaseless procession
along tlio shore for many months the
nits vanished as sueldoiily us they luul
appeared , and to this day no ono lins
been able to olTorovon npliiuslblo theory
in regard to their migration.
Another Now Zealand animal \vhloh IB
bomovvlint peculiar in its habits is the
tnatara , n lizard which grows from six
inches to a foot in length.
This creature is the very embodiment
of a negative oxlbtonco. It is usuallj
found clliiginir inotUmlcDS to a rock , per-
fojtlv legardless of driving spray 01
blinding sun. It wants neltlior food nor
drinlc , but Is perfectly content to bo kept
in a glafis ease for months or oven years ,
and is very slightly ailcetod by the wunl
of air.
It makes no noise and moves so Foldom
and bo slowly that many porsous have
watched these confined in a glass ctibo
for n long period , and then left thorn
under tlio impression that the urea-lures
were only stulTod specimens aftur nil.
Yet Iho solemn blinking of tlio golden
eyes and the slow palpitation of thoh
loatliory sides bear slight witness to
their sluggish vitality.

"No ? Well , I'll ' tell it toou. . . "
Mr.Villy Hottlocl liin elf moro com
fortably in the big uphoNtcred arm
chair , pulled aKlenilur cloud of delicate
blucHmoKc from Ills fragrant Ilimina ,
nnd lelati'd the following storj :
"L-'ivo juars ago 1'om < 'ric-o vuisn't

Mick of flour on 'li < : k. ' Today Tom

forty miles. lie managed to get omo
local capital ! ls interested In tlio dis
covery. They went back with him to
the Drum Lummond , amitiro enough
Tom had nvidon wonderful discovery.
Now , Tom is nn erratic * Bort.of cenius.
He wants a big tiling when ho thinks ho
can get it , or nothing. Ho .iw there
v\iii > great ore In the Drum Lummond ,
but how deep the vein eMendrci , of
course , ho couldn't toll. Anyway lie
asked a fabulous price for a half interest
so big , in fact , that it was impossible
for the local Helena capitalists to grap
ple with it. And tlmy wanted that half
interest bad enough , too. IJow could it
bo secured ? was the qui tion. i\t lat > t
they f-ottlcd on -icheine. . Tlie mountain
was drilled in t\o plac-Os , at right
angles to one another. A su-
norior quality of diver quartz was
jammed and pounded tight into both
holes aud then a prospective buyer was
sought. The news of tlio icnfnrkablc
paying qualities of the Drum Lummond
was heralded far and near nl o the fact
that it was a poor devil , unable to work
the millions of silver in ! > ight. It was
announced that hero vv as tlio snap of a
lifetime to a far-sighted , capitalist , and
nil that sort of stuff. The seed sown
took root. Pretty soon an English byn-
dicato was on the ground to investigate
the marvellous Drum Lummond. The
gentlemen of the svndicate vere taken
to tbo mine , the drills vvero put into
operation with the foregone conclusion
that tlio richest paying mineral was
pulled out. The Englishmen bought
the half interest on the spot , paying
therefor , I'm a-sured , a cool 2-50,000. "
"At which there must have been great
rejoicing1 , " remarked the reporter1.
"Of course , " ' answered Willy.'Rut
the strangest part of the htoi-y is yet to
follow. The Englishmen at once began
to develop the mine. They hadn't gone
ton feet down when they struck a vein
that knocked everything plumb out of
sight. They kept it up. The deeper they
wont the richer the ore insight. "Works
were built , Muellers erected , and to this
day $8,000,000 or $10,000,000 worth of
sttitT lias como out of thnt niino , anil it
shows apparently no signs of exhaus
tion. Tom Oru'-o ' snj-j hci didn't know it ,
but lie's contented. That's the story the
