of Little Butte has lately been engaged
breaking hoiscs. Last Saturday he

filly and tied it to a tree. The animal
not relishing the enforced disciplin and
in its effort to break away got entan
gled in tho rope, fell to the ground and
broke one of its fore legs. On the

broko another horse, this time a four
year old gelding, but with no belt r
success. , The animal would not stand
the rope at all, and jumping high in
tho nir fell backward with its head on
the hard ground and broke its skull.

fortunate beast Mr. Brown had to kill
both of them. They were both of su
perior stock of horses and would have
been worth 100 .apiece if they had
outlived the breaking process.

der the sofa. Then, nfter a very
"bouillon" rendition of Straus's Chef
D'Over, "The Monkey Married the
Baboon's Sister," by Prof. Thomas Cat,
tho wedding guests retired -the young
hoping that the benutiful custom of
loading newly married people with
gifts would never fade away; and our
Mr. Jenkins, sighing to think ho had
not waited till it came in fashion.
Those presenting tho beautiful gift
were very happy as they knew our
Mr. J. would put their names in the
paper.
An instaneo of Brady's rascality or
close connection with tho thieving
mail ring can be found in his neglect
to prosecute the bondsmen of lluutley,
Cue of tho ring, who obtained the route
frohf Ashland to Lakeview at 7,500
then had service increased, receiving
13,000 therefor, then failed nnd forced-
tho Department 1to re let "it -at
19,000 just aboot a fair prico. If
lluntley s bondsmen were not "straw
men" they should have been made to
fulfil the contract There is a marked
contrast in the caso of Mr. Garrett,
who carries the mail to Crescent City
from here. Ho was not in the "ring,"
took the contract too low, with good
bonds, and as he is honest, carries it at
a loss and is fined every timo he fails
to connect even on account of impassa
ble streams.
Time was when under the head of
"personals" tho papers recorded only
tho movements of royal personages,
great aristocrats, and celebrated thieves
of the former for information, of tho
latter to warn the people. Now every
body is noticed, and "the thing is run
into the ground," if over anything was.
Every man is "that genial gentleman,"
"that highly respected Mr. so and so,'
"one of the leading citizens," etc.;
every woman is "the elegant and ac
complished," etc.; every girl the "fasci
nating belle," "the leading, the beauti
ful and intellectual." It's very dis
gusting everybody knows it means
nothins; it is perfectly Chinese in its
unmeaning excess of politeness, and
among sincere people is deemed in
horrid taste.

A correspondent at Waldo writes inl
referenco to the Crescent City wagon
road thus:
Editop. Sextixel. You will recol
lect the bargain which Mr. Gnsquet it
Co. entered into a year ago, that they
agreed to build tho iuiddlo section of
this road, and that Del Norte county
was to build tho other end. Have they
built any road? Have they ever com
plied with any part of that agreement I
Why did they not tell us six months
ago that they would not, or could not,
build the road, nnd not keep us in sus
pense so long. Why havo they until
completely tornered persisted in say
ing that the road would go, and that
they would get a chaiter in January
&c &c and then failed to let us know
just what they did do. The peopls
ot this county have their opinion
about it Waldo.
