this most useful implement.
As tills is the ago of celebiatton, it

manner of doing honiago to tho um

of this great metropolis received him
with jeers and oven moio substantfal
remarks of dlsapipoval. But ho was
hiipcrlm bablo, and in consequence of
his good example tho umbrella camo
rapidly into geueral use.
Hauway had traveled much lu tho
cast, and thero ho had noted tho groat
benefits derived by tho natives from
tho umbrella both as protection against
tho sun and rain. The cast, with iU

When the editorial paragraphcr.of
a newspaper points his editorials with .
caustic, liko unto tho Kicueh, he ex
pects to bo called upon at any time to
exterminate some disagrccablo citizen
or citizens.
IFrldaKojrilug Wo were sitting in
S?rfejKRRe timM Inappropriately
ArljHlwtiwtwiii), feellug at peaco with ' w
all jktfWqrldwhen a loud continuous
knockiug, aroused us and tbrowed us
into a terrible stato of excitement. ,
Tho back door was locked and the
koy was lost, and it looked like a caso
of run or fight. Wo couldn't do the
former and wo didn't want to do tho
latter, so wo got down on our knees
to pray for the poor wretch beforo wo
swept him off this mundane sphere,
and whispered come iu.
It was a chinaman, on the hunt of a
lawyer, and wo were so rejoiced that
wo dldu't havo to spill blood but we
trembled so loud that it shook tho
house aud caused a largo imposing
stouo to upset. It is a dreadful thing
to take human life and iC always
makes us feel bad for two hours after
wards. We will now go back and bunt up
(ho story. Chinamen Charley who
runs a laundry on tho south aide of
tho railroad owed Hop fifty dollars for '
tho laundry outfit which ho Is rLW
using.
Charley had promised to pay Hop
from time to time but failed to liqui
date Hop learned Thursday that
Charley had made winning at faro
bank, aud he made a bee-line for
Charley's laundry and demanded his
pay, telling Charley that he could, pay
him as ho had made a winning.
Charley warmed up at this and fired
a sad, or flat iron at Hop, landing
hard 011 his head aud thereby causing,
tho claret to flow from tho wouud like'
an irrigating ditch. This was a decis-
Ivo battlo and as soou as the smoke"
was cleared away aud the blood
washed off, Hop had Charley arrested.
It was Hop's request that the victor
ho fined "heap much" as he had
-heap" money. Judge Milllgan acted
vti the suggestion and relieved him of
fifteen dollars of his hanl winning.
for drawing up tho treaty of peace.
Charley to rotaliato had Hop' ar
rested Friday, aud iu Hop's eagerness
to bbtaiu a lawyer he camo very near
oiigiuating a war in the offico of Tub
Kickeu, as stated above, which would
havo been a war of extermination, as
we fight uuder tho black flagon naval
engagement when they occur In river
DeFlag.
Hop secured a lawyer" and a Melt-
can" jUry'Who after hnarlno- llm !
deuco 'and probing Hop's wound and
measuring the same with a surveyor's
chalu decided that It was no violation
on the part of tho injured man to get
Uit with his own flat iron, or one that
ho hadn't been paid for, so ho was
paroled and went his, way rejoicing.
