THE GUT COUNTI HNS,
June 1!). .1800.
Tlio boom townu have taken nji
Jlornco (Jret'loy'6 cong and revised
it: "Come west, young mnti, mid
8co how you'll lmvo to grow to
catch up."
lloston has tnado arrangements
for nn overflowing treasury. A
now ordinance imposes n lino of
S20 for each iibo of profane Ian
gtiago on the fitreot.
Wo would like to suggoat that
those people who are always think
ing that the newspaper are hit
ting at them, just take a look
through the hilile. Wo fancy they
will seo even there a gentle knock.
W. A. Craiidull, chairman of
tho democratic state central com
mittee, has written u letter to
Stato Senator Foster, leader of the
anti-lottery movement in the leg.
isluturo, suggesting that the ques
tion of u lottery amendment to the
constitution ho submitted to a pri
mary election throughout tho
htatc, at which only whites shall he
permitted to vote.
One of the most unique memo
rials ever proposed for a dead hero
is r.ow being discussed at Middle
borough, Ivy. It consists of the
erection of a monument by Grand
Army men and ex-Confederate
soldiers, acting in unison, to their
respective leaders in tho civil war
Grant and Leo on two moun
tain peaks overlooking Cumber
land Cap.
Xevcr was retribution more
Kwift than that which overtook a
would-bu-iniirdeross. Michael I'.
Ncy, aged i0 years, a veteran of
tho late war, lived with his wife,
aged lij, in lioston. They were
poor but in comfortable circum
stances, as both were hard workers.
Lately the husband had been much
dissipated, and threatened bin
wife's life, and she, in her rage
determined to take his. Mrs. Noy
got somo strychnine, ami inakirg
two glasses of lemonade she pois
oned one of them. Not liking tho
taste, ho put his down, nceideiitly
changing tho iclativo positions of
the two tumblers, and when he
picked it up, got hers instead, and
she took thu fatal drink. They
drank to each other'ii health, anil
in twenty minutes she died in in
teiuo agony.
Tho General Laud Ollico has is.
sued tho following warning to
careless htarters of timber lires:
The attention of the public is call
ed to the fact that largo quantities
of the timber is annually dettroyed
by forest tiros which, in many ca
ses, originato through the carolcsn
ness of hunting, prospecting and
other camping parties; while in
boiiio iiihtanccs they may occur
through design. I take this meth
od of warning all peinons that,
hereafter, tho cause and the origin
of all forest lires will be closely in
vestigated, and where the tiro is
ascertained to have originated
through either carelessness or do -sign,
tho parties implicated will be
prosecuted to tho full extent of tho
law." White persons may bo
prosecuted if proven guilty, hut
wo are safe in saying that the dirty
hi washes can burn .astern Oregon
timber as usual, and no action will
bo taken against them. Tho set
tlers, however, can tako.tho matter
into their own hands.
A Chineso detective is in Al
buquerque, New .Mexico. His
mission is to arrest a Chinaman
who four years ago committed
murder in China, thu details of
which wore the most blood-curdling
and horrible ever known in
tho criminal history of tho celesti
al empire. The murderer's name
is Foo Choo. lie was onaniorated
with a Chineso maiden named
Kankeon Pun Van. Her father
objected to tho attentions of Foo
(JIioo and iusilcl on AaiiKcou
marrying anothor. Nankeen de
murredjiowover, but the parent
persisted and Naiikeuu became u
liridc. Tho ceremony was per
formed with all tho pomp and dis
play of a well-to-do Chinese fami
ly. Foo Choo stole into tho com
partments during tho night, and
jiftor blinding ami gaging his vic
tims, deliberately murdered them
by inches. Ho iirst cut off the
lingers of tho bride's hantlt.; then
Iter toes; then dismembered her
body, 'llio groom was treated to
a like fato and then tho muideier
Jled. II is crime was not discover
ed until threo days afterwards. A
search was immediately made for
Foo, who was susiieeted of tho
crime, but ho had effected his es
cape, going from China to Austra
lia. Tho emperor offered a largo
reward for his capture, and during
tho past three years tho detective
has been hunting him.
Two baseball clubs composed of
women played a game at Danville,
III., before 200 people. The L'ni
ted States Attorney swore out a
warrant for their arrest for dis
turbing tho peace. Tho pitcher
must have broke some windows or
Eomething in tho town.
Justice Lamar tells Washington
correspondent he thinks Mississip
pi will eventually be a negro state
and that the whites woiihi be fore
yd to emigrate. Ho is so confi
dent of this that he is anxious to
sell his plantation in Mississippi,
consisting of about live hiiinliod
acres of the liuest lauds in that
state, and having on it forty-seven
registered cows and a number of
fine horses. Justice Lamar has a
uiagtiillceiit honio.it oad there and
his lands are under the best of cul
tivation, lie offers the whole for
much loss than it is worth, and he
says he has no desire to have any
of his friends to remain in Missis
sippi. NHW TO-DAY.
