THE BAD BUY.
'Why don't you take an ice pick
and clean the dirt out from under your
finger nails, said the groceryman to the
bad boy, as lie came into the store and
stroked the cat the wrong way, as she
lay in the sun on the counter, on a
quire of manilla paper.
''Can't remove the dirt for thirty
days. It is an emblem ol mourning.
Had a funeral at our house yesterday,"
and the boy took a pickle out of a tub
and put it in tho cat's mouth and shut
her teeth together on it, and then went
to"-the showcase, while tfie grocery
man, whose back had Keen turned dur
ing the pickle exprcise, thought by the
way the cat jumped into the dried ap
ple barrel and began to paw and
scratch with all fore feet, and yowl
that she was going to have a tit.
"I hadn't heard about it," said the
grocery man as ho took the cat and
tossed her out into the back yard into
an old oyster box full of shavings,
witli a parting injunction that if she
was going to havo a fit, sho had be'.ter
go where there is plenty of fresh air.
"Death is always a,".l thing to con
emplate. One dayV 'a are full of
health, and joy, and cold victuals, and
the next ,re arc screwed djwn in a
box, a few words are taid over our ro
mains, a few sad tears are shed, mid
there is a race to seo who shall get
hack from the cemetery first, and al
though we may think we arc an impor
tant factor in the world' progress, and
.-ometitups feel a-i though it would bo
unnblo to put up margins and havo to
stop tho deal, tho world gops right
along, and i: must annoy people w hi;
die, to realize that they don't count
for game. The greatest man in tho
world is only a nine-spot when he is
dead, because somebody elso takes the
tricks that the dead man ought to have
taken. But say, who died at your
hju,1'
"Our rooster. Tako care don't you
hit me with that canvassed ham," said
tho.boy as the grocVry man looked mad
to ltarn that there was nobody dead
but a rooster, when he had preached
such a sermon on the subject. ''Ye?,
howsoon we are forgotten when we are
gone. Now you would have thought
that rooster's hen would havo re
mained faithful to him for a week at
least. I hae watched them all the
spring, and I never saw a more perfect
(dcturo of devotion than that between
the bantam rooster and his hen. They
witc constantly together, and there
was nothing too good for her. He
would dig up angle worms and call her,
nnd when she came up on a gallop and
saw the big anglo worm on the grbund,
sIib would look so proud of her rooster,
and he would straighten up and look
as thougli ho was saying to her 'ain't I
a daisy,' and sho would look at him as
if sho would like to bite him, and just
as she was going to pick up the worm,
ho would snatch it and swallow it
himself, and chucklo and walk around
and bo full ot business, as though won
dering why i.he didn't takp the worm
after he had dug it for her, nnd tlipn
the hen would look disappointed at
first, and then sho would look resigned,
as much as to say, 'Worms are too rich
for my blood anyway, nnd the poor
dear rooster needs them more than I
do, because he has to do nil the crow
ing,' and bho would go off and find a
grasshopper and eat it on the sly for
fear he would see her and complain be
cause she didn't divide Q, I have
never seen anything that seemed to
be as human as the relations between
that rooster and hen. lie seemed to
iry to do everything for her. He
would make her slop cackling when
she laid an egg, and he would try to
cackle, and crow over it as if lift had
laid it, and she would go off in a cor
ner mid cluck in a modest sort of a
way, ns though she wished to convey
thu idea to the servant gir's in the
kitckrn that tho rooster had to do all
the hard work, and she was only a uso
less appendage, (it only for society and
company for him. But I was di.s
gusted with him when the poor Iipii
was setting. The first week that she
sit on the eggs he seemed to get-along
firt rate becouse he had a couple of
(iowrr beds to dig up, which a press of
business had caused him to neglect to
attend to before, and a couple of neigh
bor's gardens to destroy, so he seemed
to he glad to have his hen retire to her
boudoir and and set, but after he had
been shoed out of the gardens and
flower beds ha seemed to ba nervous,
and evidently wanted to be petted, and
ho would go near the hen and she
would seem to tell him to take a walk
around the block, because she hadn't
time to leave her business, and if she
didn't attend to it they would have a
lot of spoiled chickens to attend to,
and a poor family to bring up. He
would scold, and seem to tell her that
it was foolishness, and for his part he
didn't want to hear a lot of chickens
squawking around, lie would seem
to argue with her that a brood of
chickens would be a dead give away on
them both, and hey would at once be
classed as old folks, while if they were
alone iu tho world they would be
spring chickens, and could go into so
ciety, hut the hen would scold hack at
him, and tell him ho ought to be
ashamed of himself to talk that way,
and he would go off mud, nnd sulk
arcund, and then go to a neighbor's
hen house and not come back till the
next day. Tho hen would be sorry she
had spoken to cross, and would seem
pained at his going away and would
look anxiously for his return, and
when he came back after being out in
the rain all night, she would be solic
itious after his health, and tell him ho
ought to wrap something around him,
but he acted as though hu didn't care
for his health, and he would go out
again and get chilled through. Finally
tho hen came off tho nest with ten
chickens, nnd the rooster seemed very
proud, and when anybody came ou,t to
look at them ho would crow, and
sepmed to Fay they weic all his chickens
though thu hen was a long time hatch
ing them, nnd if they had been him
that was setting on thcin ho could
have hatched them out in a week, or
dide a trying. But the exposure told
on him, and ho went into a decline,
and cue morning we found him dead.
Do ou know, I never seen a hen that
seemed to realize a ca'aniity as sho did.
She looked pale, and her eyes looked
red, and she seemed to be utterly
crushed. If tho chickens which were
so young they could not tealizo that
they were little orphans, became noisy,
and got to pulling and hauling over a
worm, and conducted themselves in an
unseemly manner, she would talk to
them in hen language, with tears in
in hereye.s,and-it wa3 apieture of woe.
But the next day a neighboring rooster
got tolooking through the fence from the
alley, and trying to flirt with her. At
first she was indignant and seemed to
tell him to go about his business, and
leave her alone, but the dude kept
clucking and pretty soon the widowed
hen edged up towards tho fence and
asked him to conic in, but the hole in
the fence was too small for him, and
then the chickens went out into the al
ley, and the hen followed them out. I
.ilmll always think she told them to go
out, so she would have an excuse to go
out after them, and flirt with the
rooster, and I think it is a perfect
shame. She is out in the alley half tho
time, and I could cuff her. It seems
to mo wrong to so soon forget a rooster
but I suppose a hen can't be any more
than human. Say dont you want to
buy a good dead rooster, do you? You
could pick it ami sell it to somebody
that owes jou for a spring chicken."
"No, I dun't want any deceased
poultry that died of giiff, and you
better go home and watch your hen,
or you w ill be bereaved some more,"
and the groceryman went out in the
shed to Bee if the cat was over iti fit,
and when hu came back tho boy was
gnno and nfter a while the grocery
man saw a ;rowd iu front of the store
and he went out and ho found the
dead rooster lying on tho vegetable
stand, with a paper pinned on its
breast on which was a si;n, "This
ruster died of colic. For sale cheep
to board'ng Iioush only." He took the
dead mr.ster nnd threw it out in the
street, and looked up und down the
street for the bail boy, and went in and
hid n raw hide wliero he could reach it
handv.
Alfred Anderson had an anchor
tattooed on the back of his lefc hand
and a star on tho back of his right,
both imprinted in bluo Indian ink.
Four fifths of the convicts in the pen
itentiary are tattooed on some portion
of the body, as is shown by their de
scription kppt on record at the prison.
Such defacing of the hun.an form is
either productive of crime, or crime is
an incentive inducing the tottooing
process. It is safe to look upon all
men, whose persons aro thus disfigured,
with suspicion.

Papers were served yesterday on tho
defendants in the damage suit of C. A.
F. Morris, acainst W. R. Struble, C'
B. Carlisle, J. F. Mcintosh and Sol
Abraham, in which he claims 825,000
damages for an alleged libel published
in tha "Polaris" April 22, 1883.
Morris in the chief engineer ot tho
construction of the Oregon and Cali
extension construction, and the articlo
complained of intimated that there
had been swindling going on, to which
Morris was a party. Thearticle. crea
ted a great stir in "railroad circles,
because of Morris' connections, it being
asserted that he was placed in the po-'
siiion by the influence of bond holders,
of the road and kept there. That
when the publication was made, Mor
ris was directed by Manager Koebler
of the road to have tho matter cleared
up. Morris then went himself or sent
to 'tho "Polaris" office, to have 'the
article retraced but no retraction wa3
made. On the contrary tho charges
were substantially reasserted. Tho
matter was referred to the graud jury,
hut that body refused to find an indict
ment foe criminal libel. The next
step was taken last Thursday, when
Morris filed a suit for damages and'tha
papers were served on some of ther
parties yesterday. Mr. Morris evi
dently made a mistake making C. B.
Car'.isle u defendant, as that gentelmaa
was only a writer on the paper at that
timo on a salary, and had no interest
in it, nor any authority whatever over
the columns as to what should be pub
lished or what should not Sol.
Abraham is also a co defendant in the
title of the cause, but the point taken
in the matter is not set out in the
complaint. It is understood that Mor
ris wants to get the name of the person
who furnished the information to tha
"Polaris," nnd although Abraham is
believed to be that party, there is no
way of getting at the truth excpt
through the proprietors of the pap.ir.
As they declino to divulge, "the action
is brought against them. Tho prin
cipal party defendant is WolUco H.
Stiuble, who has, sinco the publication
of the artielf, severed his connection
with the paper. He has formed a
business arrangement in Walla Walla,
ami the attorneys for the plaintiff will
endeavor lo obtain an order for his
arrest if ho attempts to leave this city.
The case will in all probability go to a
test on its merits.
Give the Babv a Drink of Va
teii. A New Yoik physician at
tributes a large part of the excessive
mortality oFchililrcn in hot weather to
the failure of nurses and mothers to
give them water. Indeed, more chil
dren are said to dio (directly and in
direct) from privation of water than
from any other cause. Infants, ha
says, are always too much wrapped up,
and in many cases would perspire very
freely. The water lost by perspiration
must bo supplied. As Dr. Murdoch
stated in his paper on cholera infantum.
"The child is thirsty, not hungry; ljut
not getting the water, which it does
want, it drinks the milk, which it does
not want." The consequence is that
the stomach is overloaded with food
that it cannot digest, and which soon
ferments and becomes a sourco of
sevcro irritation. Then follow vomit
ing, purging and cholera infantum. To
prevent thisthe principal soon, ge o In
fancy, the doctor says: "Uav" water,
without ice, always accessible lo tho
child, who will then refuse 3ov.r milL'
and will eat "only when hnngrv. Vht
ter is the greatest indispensable articli
for the preventive treatmpnt of chil
dren in hot weather. It is important
enough to nursing children, but it is
life itself to those reared on the bottle."
In a party in St. Joseph, Missouri,
where a young man "noted for his
brilliant conversational powers," and a
beautiful girl "from ono of the upper
counties;'' and in the course of, a
struggle for the possession of a trinket
"the girl sank her ivory teeth into the
fleshy part of the young man's arm."
He r olitcly concealed his pain until he
returned home, when, on removing his
garments, blood was found trickling
fiom the wound. Next morning the
lacerated arm was swollen to twice its
natural size, and hu was laid up for
several days. The St. Joseph paper,
in relating the incident, refers to
another and worse one of a similar
r.atuio that occurred at Cape Girardeau
a few years ago, in which a young
gentleman actually died from a playful
bite on his thumb by a young lady.
The paper remark: "It frequently
happens that the bite of a woman- is
poisonous."
