There is stopping at the Great North ern an old countryman, who was in for mer years an intimate acquaintance of Colonel Saye, the night clerk. He went out Sunday afternoon and returned to the hotel somo time after midnight feel ing a bit frisky. Presuming upon his acquaintance with the night clerk, lie opened the gato and went behind the counter to show the clerk how to attend to his business. While Colonel Saye's attention waa called *away, the old fel low sat down on a stool behind the coun ter and innocently leaned his broad and weary back against about 80 of the push buttons on the annunciator. An electric wire connects these but tons in the rooms above with gongs which make a peculiar and astonishing amount of noise, especially when they start suddenly after midnight and keep up the racket without cessation. Well, when tiie old man leaned his back against the annunciator the noise began upstairs, but of course ho didn't hoar it, so he continued to sit there and push the but tons. Many people had left calls so as to catch their trains. They got np and be gan to dross, but they couldn't imagine why tho deafening noise continued aftei they had pushed the button in response to signify that they were up. The oth ers wero panic stricken. The halls wore soon fillefl with men and women in all kinds of deshabille. Each door as it was opened let an additional noise into the hall, until with the oaths of the men and tho screams of the women it seemed a perfect bedlam. People became mixed up and got into rooms with others whom they had never aeon. One man, after tho scare was over, never discovered that he was in the wrong room until getting in bed he almost mashed a baby. Of course there was a rash for tho of fice. Tho clerk opened his eyes and grabbed his gun as everybody fired ques tions at him at once. He said he couldn't explain it, but they must be crazy. Then he looked around and saw tho old "chump" sitting on tbe stool, with an innocent, inane, toothless smile stretching across his sun bronzed face. Colonel Saye pulled him up by the col lar and told him what he had been do ing. "Well, I'll be gol darned," was all he said then, but as the people started np stairs he said, "I'm sorry I disturbed the good people, but who'd ha' believed that that darn board conld make all that noise when it only had a man's back a-leanin against it." Then lie went ove*' aud began to push a white spot on the new postal box. He thought he was ringing for t!« elevator.— Chicago Inter Ocean.

A OODFLB or OPINIONS BKCKIVKU TUTIBDAY. An Important Oaa* In Ventura County Receive* a Pinal Deolilon—Aeeva vario'a Appeal Receive* a Deelelro Negative. The supreme court has affirmed the judgment of the euperior court of Ven tura county in the case of Jules Saulque, appellant, vs. BuenteDarralde, respond ent, in accordance with an opinion re ceived for filing yeaterday by Deputy Clerk Seanon. Tbe plaintiff appealed from a judg ment of non suit entered against him, and from an order denying hia motion for a new trial. The action waa for forcible detainer of a tract of land con taining about 400 acres in Ventura oounty. Tbe complaint alleged that at tb time ot the defendant, enUy and fo five daya prior thereto, the plaintiff wa in peaceable and actual poaaeaalon o the whole ranch and entitled to it; tha Auguat 26, 1891, while he waa tempore rily abaent, the defendant unlawfully entered and took possession and alao alleged a demand for possession from the defendant and hia refusal. The anawer denied the allegation made, and pleaded a right to enter ant depaature the atubble under a lioena from tbe owner of the ranch. The plaintiff Sanlque made an agree naent with T. W. Dixon, who oeoupied and farmed tbe ranch oneharea June 10 1891, by which Dixon rented him the atubble on the Sturgiaa place, comprie ing tbe 400 acrea, at the rate of |320 for the whole place. Saulque testified that July 15th he went on a part of the land with a flock of aheep and kept them there three daya and then took them away; tba August 3d he went back without the aheep and put some watering trough upon tbe land; tbat Anguet 20th be again returned and found some one ha< moved hia troughs and pnt them ont on tbe county road, and he alao fonnd the defendant on the land with aheep. At the last named date the grain had beet cnt bnt waa etill lying in "dumps" anc had not been threshed. Mr. Dixon testified that he was livini on the farm, farming it on aharea; tba one-half of whatever he got wae hia that he gave the defendant, who bad hu aheep on other laud, the right to wate them at the well near the honae, bn ; gave him no other right. Tbe conrt holds that the plaintiff did not show such possession as would have aupported a verdict in hia favor and tba the non enit wae properly granted. The grain not having been removed the right to enter given by the oontrac had not accrued. The occupancy of the 20 acrea not in grain for three daya in July was not anch as the statute con templates as a basis for co hareh a remedy as that of forcible detainer. 1 ie concluded tbat an examination of the whole record discloses no prejudicia error, and tae judgment and order ap pealed from are affirmed. ACEYEDO's APPEAL KNOCKED OUT. A brief opinion was also received at firming the judgment and order in tb* caae of People vs. Acevedo. The de fendant was convicted of burglary and appealed from a judgment denying/a motion for a new trial. The court says that various assignments of error iy»re renea upuu j.. ~..<_, _ .>._« .. r on careful examination of the record they find nothing that demands* re trial of the caae.

Kiutohn Herald: Ia your iaane oi yeaterday (Thuredey) appoara a half column article, mainly constating of a letter from Ellwood Cooper to Frof. D. VV. Coqnillett of tbii city, of a com plexion 10 cnriona that it impale me, at an outsider, interested in onr Southern California horticulture and orchards, to do that unwise thing, rush into print in defence of tha right 1 Doea it strike yonr readers that it ia a cnriona thing that Mr. Ellwood Cooper, a northerner, appears in this article aa the only cham pion of the intereata of Southern Califor nia orchardiate, oppoaing himaalf to two of the most disinterested and competent men we have got—Prof. D. W. Coqnil lett and Mr. John Scott? * That it ia barely possible that tbeae two laat bave at heart the intereata ot Southern Cali fornia rather more cloaely than than Mr. Ellwood CooperT That Mr. Ellwood Cooper, aome few montha ago, declared a practical boycott on Southern Califor nia because we did not fall down and worabip him, tha gage of which chal lenge the editors of the Ribald very properly promptly took np? That it ia what in good American we call "gall" for a Mr. Ellwood Cooper to atate that be baa endeavored to give) atatna to a apeoialiat appointee oi the government of the United Statea at Washington ? And tbat tha animua of a refnaal on hia part, to each a govern ment appointee, of permiaaion to vieit hia orchard ia tantamount to an ac knowledgement that Mr. Ellwood Cooper ia the owner of an orchard that will not bear in veatlgation ? What do we think of the man who refnaal an officer of tha United States admiaeidn to hia property, but tbat ha haa on, hia property that which anch an,officer would be bound to condemn ? Ia it not time that we of Southern California stand by our rights, and, what tbe Hrrald haa alwaya bean fore moat to affirm, refnae to be bulldozed by northern intereata? The atate board of horticulture haa apent a good deal of money. Some of na think it ia not wiaely apent. We petitioned the legialature to place funds, not in their banda, but in thoaaof a perhape mora disinterested body, vis., tbe atate univeraity. For thia offenae every Southern Gall fornian ia to aay "ehibboleth" to Mr. Ellwood Cooper or ba anathema maran atba. Are we going to do it? Shall wa bow down tbe knee to Baal? Or shall we insist on our righta to preaerve our own property and take oar chances of tbe wrath of Mr. Ellwood Cooper? I have no doubt of onr anawer. I take no notice of Mr. Oooper'a throwing bia hospitality in Prof. Co quillet's teeth—an action that atamps the man completely. I presume Prof. Co quillett, with whom I am not peraonally acquainted, will anawer thaaa thinge for bimaelf; but tha impertinence, tha pre sumption and tha arrogance of that let ter aeema to me to call for aome outside proteat. Yours respectfully. Idiot**. [Idiotea faila to remember that Ell wood Cooper ia a Southern Oalifornlan, and that he did not refnae to allow hit orchard to ba inapected by a competent, reaponeible person, but did object to tba presence of Prof. Coqnillett, who, aa a federal official, appeara to have bean pe culiarly unfortunate in becoming con cerned in a local imbroglio.] That Encyclopedia.
