On last Friday evening a good!' riumber
of our citizens en masse entered the spacious
pari bra of the Vincent House and took
possession. The occasion was that of the
15th anniversary of the wedding of Mr. and
Mrs. Vincent and this party had been pre
viously arranged for the purpose of giving
this highly esteemed couple a grand sur
prise and spending a few hours in enjoy
ment and sociability. The party was a
grand success, even the surprise was com
plete. The host and hostess, however, soon
comprehended the situation and in their
usual pleasing and social manner enter
tained their guests creditably. The for
part of the evening was spent in singing,
card playing and general conversation,
after which a good snpply of palateable
pastry was produced which proved to be
one of the leading features of the evening.
The violin was then tuned and all joined in
a social hop until after midnight. The
guests then departed feeling highly pleased
with the evenings enjoyment and hoping
that Mr. and Mrs. V. may live to enjoy
their diamond wedding and that it may be
as enjoyable as the one just celebrated.

Traveling Tricksters.
A week seldom passes without some trav
eling man canvasses our city for orders eith
er for clothing, foot gear, or .shirts made
from measurement by some eastern firm,
requiring a certain amount to be paid in
advance, and in many instances he does a
good business. We would advise those
who arc in need of such articles to look over
the advertisements in the Gazette and pat
ronize our home merchants, as they can not
only sell as cheap as eastern firms, but the
purchaser always gets.whatjhe pays for. We
have no assurance that we will ever hear
from orders given most of these canvassing
creatures as the following from an exchange
will show:

An Act to 4 'revet t Trespass.
The follwing bill was passsed by the last
legislature. It is said that the intention
was mainly to prevent persons from hunting
on land not his own but it seems to apply
to all trespass alike:
Section 1. If any person shall go or tres
pass upon any land not his own, and shall
fail, neglect or refuse to depart therefrom
immediately, and remain away, upon the
verba, or printed, or written notice of the
person in the occupation of said lands, such
trespassers shall be deemed guilty of a mis
demeanor, and upon conviction thereof,
shall be punished by fine not less than five
nor more than fifty dollars, and shall be
committed, in default of payment of the
fine impossed, to jail of the co jnty in which
the offense is committed, one day for each
two dollars of the said fine.
Section 2. Printed or written notices,
having attached thereto, by authority, the
name of the person in the lawful occupation
of said lands, and requiring all persons to
forbear trespassing on said lands and to de
part therefrom, posted in three conspicuous
places on said lands, shall he held and deem
ed to be sufficient notice, as mentioned in
Section 1 of this Act.
Section 3. Justice 's Courts shall be jur
isdiction over all offenses defined m this Act.
Section 4. All fines collected under the
provisions of this Act, shall be paid into
and shall constitute a part of the Common
School Fund of the county in which the of
fense is committed.
Section 5. Inasmuch as the present law
is inadequate to the punishment of trespass
ers, this law shall take effect and be in force
from and after its approval by the governor.
Approved Oct. 24th.

A Sold Robbery.
(Dalles Tunis-Mountaineer.
Last Thursday afternoon, between 3 and
4 o'clock, while Mrs. Dehm was absent from
the house, some bold thief, 'whose cheek is
more fully developed than his prudence,
unlocked the front door of the residence
and walked boldly in, passing through
every room. He turned over every trunk
in the house, and scattered around a bundle
of deeds and other papers. Coming to a
drawer which contained jewelry he helped
himself to valuables worth about $300,
pocketed two Smith and Weston's revolvers,
and walked up-stairs-. Here; in a lodger's
room, he found an overcoat which he put on
aud appropriated a watch. He had already
taken one watch down stairs, and sundry
other things. Mrs-. Dehm arrived home in
time to see him make his exit, and she im
mediately gave chase. He rau out on the
sidewalk towards the new court house, and
took a direction up the hill. If Mrs. Dehm
had been armed, or had any help, she could
have overtaken and captured him. As it
was every firearm was taken from the house
and she was left entirely defenceless. This
is the boldest and most successful attempt
we have learned of for some time, and it
would appear that our police force should
be sufficiently vigilant to protect property
from being-stolen in open daylight.

four months ago, had its right front leg cut
off below the knee by a railroad train. A
veterinary surgeon dressed the wound and
tied the arteries so skillfully that the cow
recovered. She was kept in the stable until
a few days ago, when a neighbor, a cabinet
maker, made for her a wooden leg, which
was strapped on the stump. The cow hop
ped along holding the injured leg up for a
day or two, but now she has concluded to
use the wooden attachment, and limps a

Two Tons of Three-Cent Coins.
The United States mint in this city has
just received over two tons of three-cent sil
ver pieces, which by act of Cougress have
been abolished from the national coinage.
This is, however, only about one-fifth of the
quantity of these small coins which are to be
brought here from the Various sub-Treasuries
of the country there having already
been redeemed more than ten toils. Those
ceiit pieces now in the mint would fill three
large wageus. Thoy are to be reeoined into
ten-cent pieces,, as the three-cent nicke
pieces arc to tako the place of the old silver
three-cent coins. The Treasury Depart
ment is redeeming the small coins as fast as
possible, and in a few years they will entire
ly disappear, and only the nickel will be in
circulation. The coins have lost a very
considerable per cent, of their intrinsic val
ue by usage, in some amounting to as much
as 25 per cent. In fact they are rapidly
wearing out. This is the reason why they
were abolished and the harder and more
convenient nickel substituted. Philadelphia
