The very best "French" candy

"There is a chance for old maids
in the Argentine Republic," re
marked Henri Bosquet of Buenos
Ayres, one day recently. "There
are about sixteen men to one
woman there, and the unmarried
males are more than anxious to
secure wives. This is especially
hue of niv citv. When a 'new
20 1891
woman, as we call the welcome
arrival, comes to town alxut fifty
men make a wild euort to secure
her. It is qui'e an interesting
contest, and theone who captures
her is looked ujon as something
of a hero. The local papers write
columns about it, and every body
in the city turns out to the wed
ding. It doesn't matter much
about the woman's gge or looks,
she is received with open arms
and married off in a jiffy to some
real nice man. The woman will
have about fifty good-looking
suitors to pick from so she need
not be anxious about not find
ing the kind of a mm she wants.
Ttie love-making doesn't last long,
however. Three days is the usual
limit."

KILLED BY INDIANS

The Mongolian Mad Main "Poker
Torn' In a Festive t.aiue of
Poker.
San Fkvxcisco, June 111. Dep
uty Recorder Barnard, of Bridge
port, Mono county, gives fuller
particulars 01 me Killing 01 me
Ch-naman. Ah Tai, by the Walker
Lake Indians, at Bridgeport, June
y. An lai liad confessed to killing
an Indian named "Poker Tom"
with a club, after a game of cards,
but claimed he acted in self de
fense, as Tom attacked him, in an
endeavor to get back the money
the Chinaman had won.
A preliminary examination held
June 9 resulted in the discharge of
the prisoner on the motion of the
counsel for the defense, who
argued that there was no evidence
to ehow that Poker Tom had been
-nurdered; that the evidence did
ot show whether the remains
. mnd in the river and supposed to
e those of Poker Tom were those
f a man or woman, and that
there bad been no evidence taken
before the court in the manner re
quired by law. Ah Tai was
afraid to leave the court room
after his discharge, and one of his
attorneys went to request the
sheriff to give him a body guard.
Four Indians then rushc! into the
court room, Justice Fales, Ah Tai
and one of the latter'a attorneys
being the only occupants. They
seized the Cninaman, and re
epoading to Justice Fales' entreaty
that they do no violence in the
court room, bade him be still.
They dragged the shrieking
Chinaman into the street, where
they were joined by other Indi
ans, who dragged the victim half a
mile out of town and cut off his
head and limbs, cut open the
trunk and scattered the entrails
for some distance through the
sage brush. The Indians then re
turned to their camp, while the
remains of Ah Tai were gathered
and buried.

questioned as to the applicant's
honesty.
The referee rubbedhis chin med
itatively for a moment and said :
"Honest? Well boss, dis yere
man's honesty hab ben proved
befo' de court. He's ben tried
seben times fer steal in' an' es
caped eb'ry time."
And the man expressed surprize
that this strong testimony did not
secure him employment.
