Fluid At the Oceanic Dock , San Francisco Call , On Friday last , the brig Consuolo was taking on board , at the Ucoanto dock , a largo drove of hoge , for transportation t } the Hawaiian 111 tnds , The natural ob stinacy of the pig nature made the job quite a difficult ooo to the sillora and stevedores. They would bo hustled along the Rang plank almost into their proper quarters on board , when the loader , a fjray old pa'rlatob , wonfd give n grunt and a squeal , and charge back again , throwing the whole drove into confusion. A very prominent employe of the com pany loudly criticised the Incompoteucy of the drovers , and offered to bat any amount th.st ho could put the whole drove aboard slnglo-handoJ , TUS brought out counter challenges , and after a lone dis cussion , the captain of the brig offered a wager that the would-be hog qnellcr could not handle the b'g ' loader singly , lot alone the whole lot. Finally , the matter resolved itielf Into an agreement that the Oceanic gentleman WAS to enter the pen , of which the porcine veteran was to bo the solo occupant , throw him down and put him on board , and the entire dock gate receipts from an ex pected audience was to reward the human wrestler if ho uncceodod. George Love , the dock collector , 7raa appointed referee , nnd Custom House Otlicer Ruddlck time keeper and general manager. Whop tlmo wan called , the pig skillfully avoided the wild rushes made by the athlete at has tall and legs , quietly measuring his opponent from the corner of his twinkling eye. At last ho lowered hi ) head , feinted twice for an opening , then rushed nt his antagonist , and securing n double leg lock with his snout between the wroit- lor's logs throw him a cqaaro back fall , a la Whistler. The pig then lay down on his opponent , forcing both shoulders and hlpi to the ground , and then Inserting his nose under the gentleman's waistband , rapidly turned him over and over In the mud and dirt. Amid the wild yolh of the excited audience , the referee gave the fall to the pig , and when tlmo was called for the second round the wrestler throw np the sponge and gave up the match. Strange to Bay , as soon as the referee de cided In his favor the winner jumped out of the pen ring , and grunting harmoni ously , dashed on board the brig into the quarters prepared for him , followed by the rest of the drove. The magnanimity of the victor In not biting the loser when ho had him at hla mercy received the loudest commendations from the highly Interested audience. CAGING A NOTED CROOK. Tuo "Prince of Oracksaieii" Once Moro Lodged Behind the Bars. New York Special. The detective force , under the nupar- vislon of Inspector Byrne , made an im portant arrest. On April 29 ult , the safe of Smith & Co. , at 45 Park place , was robbed of all It contained worth having On Thursday night last S. B. Hoton & Co. , of 50 Frankfort street , suffered a similar loss. The negotiable amounts taken In either case wore not large , but the methods of manipulation in each instance were similar. Inspector Byrne knew Gustavls Kent , alias Freneh Gus , alias Isadoro Marshall , who has escaped from Imprisonment several times , was re leased from Sing Sing about a year ago. The inspector know that French Gus was in New York , and suspected that from the lisas employed Kent might bo the man he wanted. He detailed Detectives Lyon , King , O'Connor and Slawson to watch for Kent. Theao officers learned that Mrs. Rose Kent , a daughter of Kent , who lives at 415 East Twelfth had In her house many of the articles taken in the rob beries. They had also learned that Kent ccupied the room at 33 Market street , nd here they arrested him. When Kent was told of the finding of 10 bonds , postage stamps and other lings at his daughter's residence , he anfeesed to the burglary , but main- ained that ho had secured only about " 282 in money , instead of the $400 ere o ho was charged with having taken. Kent ia a Belgian , about 40 years old. Ho boasts that safe locks are no barrier , o him. In 1809 he was sent to Sing ing for robbing Wheeler & Parsons , of Brooklyn , of eevtral hundred dollars' worth of watch cases. On February 5 , 871 , he cut the burs of his cell with omp fine saws that had been smuggled , o him , and escaped. On October 17 , 872 , ho was raarrestod for burglary In Hackonsack , N. J. , but wa turned over o the authorities hero to sorro his term f ten years. While in prison this time , Cent contrived lover lock , which would ock all the cell dours on a lloor at ones , 'ho ' prison ofliclals wore pleased with the nvention and recommended Kent's par- 'on , but Governor Tilden would not lethe ho man go free. At this Kent refused o surrender his "patent. " In 1875 vent again escaped by the help ot the man In charge of the cooper-shop. Ho made hla way to Montreal , where ho quite promptly tried to rob a pawnshop. Ho was caught and got three years While in Canada ho sold the lover locke ; o the authorities , and it ia now In goa- ral use in the prisons of the Dominion. Windsor Hotel , N. Y , Ulty. Messrs. Hawk & Wetherbeo , to eon < brra to the times , have reduced their ates to 84,00 and upwards , per day. Thh high character and standard will be maintained. A. HOK That Anmvers Flro Alarum , ililwnukeo Sentinel. Pedestrians on Broadway last evening when Chief Foley was driving by at hla usual speed la response to an alarm , might bavo noticed a largo black dog bounding along directly in front of th chief 'a horjo , balking furiously and snap . " ig at that animal's legs. The dog maintained his position in front of th horse until Buffalo street was reached when some boja drove It back. "That dog has given mo more annoy nee than yon can imagine , " said th chief last evening , in speaking of the in cldent. "Ever since the early part of la t winter he has ran in front of my hone at every fire. Ho belongs , I be lieve , to a saloon keeper on Eist Water street , and every tlmo the bell sounds ho is in front of the station before we get out , end ho never tackles any other horse but the one I am driving. Why , that dog has run all the way In front of my horse up to Garfleld avenue and Twelfth street , barking and snapping all the time. Every time I came baok from a fire I made up my mind to shoot that dog , because I am afraid he will cause the horse to stumble some time , but then I think , 'well , ho won't come again. ' However , at the very next alarm , when I drive through the door , there ho tits on the platform waiting for me. When the bell atriko 12 o'clock up cornea that dog on the gallop from where ho belongs , and takes his place on the platform , and after waiting a few minutes without seeing the horses came out , ho' turns tall nnd trots slowly away. I can't understand it , nt all. " _ The ISrio In CMKornU. Mr. J. G. McCnll , Gen. Agt. , Erie llallrcad , San Franolscn , states that ho Is acquainted with the oflh-tcy of St. Jacob's Oil for rheumatism , and gives it his hcatty endorsement. The Horrors of n Snulco Don , Ponr JBRVIS , N. Y. , May 24. W. P. Halo and six companions of Iloto'a Switch had a thrilling encounter with rattlesnakes on Sunday at a ledge known at the Snake's Don. It was very warm and the snakes had crawled Into the brush to sun themselves and wore raising their heads all along the path they had came and wore darting their poisonous fangs in and out in a very threatening manner. The patty struck with their heavy clubs right and left , the reptiles sounded their rattles and leaped angrily at the logs of their assailants , nnd formed in battle array In the path as if to out off their escape. It was a trying struggle , and when at last the worn-out men had forced their way ontsldo the dangerous circle they were able to count moro than fifty lingo snakes dead in the path , many measuring six foot in length. They brought them into town to-day and sold them to a dealer In snnko-oll and rallies. The Favorite Washing Compound of the day la unquestionably JAMKS PYLK'S I'KARLINE.

The farmers and market enrdonors of Union and Essex counties , Now Jorsoy. ara greatly alarmed on account of the probability that the eonntiy will bo over run with locusts daring the coming sum mor. The members of tbo Union Coun ty Farmers' club , of which Mr. Dennis 0. Crane , of Rpaello , Is corresponding secretary , will discuss the locust question at their next monthly meeting , which will bo held in the city of Elizabeth. In ploughing the ground this springs the plows have turned np millions of young locusts which hare seemed to bo making their way toward the surface. Another source'of olarm for the Now Jersey farmers is the fact that a peculiar dis ease lias attacked many of the apple , cherry , peach and other fruit trees. The strange feature of this dlaeasa Is that It shows itself upon ono side of the tree only. Thousands of trees are to bo seen , ono sldo of which are covered with buds and blossoms , while the ether sldo shows the effect ot the withering blight. It is thought that there will bo a very short fruit crop this year. C Curtains , Oil Cloths , Window Shades , Linoleums. Mattings , Rugs , Etc. , Etc.
