ANOTHEP; INJUNGTION. Judge Lootbourow Holds Court in a Rallway OCar Between Glen- wood and Ited Oak, The securing of an injunction by the Avoea attorneys has caused somo talk, but appears to have little or no practical effect. The injunction restrains the county board and auditor from issuing bonds for the erection of a new court house and jail, hut no one had any idea that the board or auditor would attempt any such move under the circumstances. The petition filed is a lengthy one, and when robbed of legal technicalities it amounts to simply a statement of the vote cast, the injunction served restraining the canvass of the votes of certain townships, that this in- junction was based on false claims, and that the board had declared that with these townships thrown out there wasa majority in favor of the new court house and jail; that the county board was standing in with those who got out the injunction, snd unless restrained the bonds would be issued. It appears from tho petition that Judge Loofbourow was to have heard the case at Glenwood Thursday afternoon the entry being as follows: ““The foregoing petition being present- ed to me it is ordered that the same be sot down for a hearing at Glenwood on the 13th inst., at 1 o’clock p. m., and on two days notice in writing to defendants accompanied by a copy of said petition.” C. F. Loorsourow, Judge. March 11, 1884, The county attorney had just returned from a trip to Des Moines, and being unable to get down to Glenwood was to send his partner, Mr. Adams, but it ap- pears that even if he had been at Glen- wood at 1 o’clock, it would have done no good. It is claimed that Judge Loof- bourow adjourned court in the morning and started on the train for home, and while on the train between Glenwood and Red Oak, the Avoca attorneys pre- sented their case, and the judge with a lead pencil wrote down as best a man could while whirling over the rails, an order for a temporary injunction. The county attorney is quite hot about the injunction being thus granted, not be- cause it makes any practical difference, but because of its being issued, as he un- derstands it, without any chance being given for a hearing, and before the time set for the hearing and at a different place than that announced e ——— ‘Wer DeMeyer.

It was an odd name for a gitl—Sacra. mento, So the girl herself thought as shestooped down beside spring at the foot of a cot- ton-wood tree and lazily dropped her pail into the water. *It ought to have been given to & boy, if it was a fit name to give shybody,” she said_quite aloud, *‘But I'm more boy than girl, anyway."” This fact was added rather bitterly, as she looked at her brown, rough hands and here her bare ankles, and thought of the “‘boy's work” she had to do. And it was hard to believe that this was the best kind of a life for a young girl like Sacramento. * Here she lived alone, for her father was down at the mouth of the canon all day. The garden work she was obliged to do, and the care of the cattle fell upon her. It was not often that she saw any person but her father, although now and then, in spite of herself, she came in contact with the rude men of the mining camp up above. Yot Sacramento had her dream, one that she ‘‘scarcely dared to own,” but it came to her often as she went about her work. She knew that down at Santa Barbara and in the towns along the coast, and far, far away across wide stretches of continent to the great east there were girls who lived very different from her life, and she dreamed of such a life for herself, *‘Oh, if I couldonlygo away from here!” she cried out, almost as one cries out for help. ““If I could only go down to San Francisco and go to school there for a sin- glo year! dollars!” Suddenly there was a step—not of a man, but & horse—on the bank behind her, and then some one spoke. She knew the voice without looking up. It was Pete Larrabee, a fellow who lived down on Hahnemann's plantation, two miles along the trail. He sometimes rode by. He had not heard her last words at all; yet strangely enough his own were a re- petition of them. “Five hundred dollars, Sac,” said he. “Five hundred dollarsin gold! D'ye want ter earn it? Ther's yer chance,” and he threw down to her a bit of paper crumpled into a ball. She picked it up, and, slowly unfolding it, ran her eye over its contents: $600 REWARD, The above amount will be paid for in- formatien leading to the arrest dead or alive, of Walter Somers, who has worked for some time past on Maxwell's ranch. Said Somers is about 18 years old and 6} feet high, rather good-looking, with light, curly hair, blue eyes and a light must- ache. When last seen he had on a black slouch hat, gray business suit, with blue flannel shirt, and boots with red tops marked with the maker’s name. The name of the county sheriff was signed at the bottom of the bill. Sacra- mento, having glanced it through, looked ““He's been a stealin’ horses,” exclaim- ed Pete. ‘‘Got off last night with four of Maxwell’s best somewheres. Thet reward won’t do much good, though. The Regu lators'll lasso him and string him up long ’fore the law'll git started. They're hevin’ a meetin’ now up at the Gulch. tell ye they are mad. They'll make quick work ef they ketch him. Yer father’s there. Ye needn’t look fur him hcme afore night, much.” Then, after a word or two more, the man rode on, and on, and presently Sacramento took up her pail, and with the sheriff’s bill still in her hand, went slowly up the bank and across the trail toward the house, thinking very seriously about the $500 all the while. It was some hours afcer this, and the afternoon sun was going down behind the tops of the ifiountains, that Sacramento, having finished her housework, was pre- paring to sit down on the porch to do her sewing, when she was met in the doorway by a young man she had never seen be- fore. And yet he was no stranger. The girl knew him instantly, although the slouch hat was pulled down over the flaxen hair und blue eyes, and the gray pants, torn and muddy, had been drawn out of the boot-legs so as to no longer allow the red tops of the boots with the maker's name to be seen. It was the horse thief, She did not, however, express any sur- prise as she saw him, She was accus- tomed to the sight of rough, evil men; and at the first glance she had felt that this one could not be either very wicked or very dangerous, He was not much more than a lad, and had an air of gen- tleness and good breeding about him that six months of western life, and the miserable plight he was in at the moment, had by no means aestroyed. He seemed to be shcrt for breath too, and was trembling as if he had been run- ning. o Instinctively he raised his hand toward his hat and then, bethinking himself, dropped it again, “Could you give me something to eat and drink?’ he asked, in a hesitating “Anything will do, I am very hungry. I—1I have had nothing to eat since last night.” “‘Come 1n,"” said Sacramento, gravely. In her voice there was neither kindness or unkindness, she trying to realize the situation she was in, ~ “‘Come in and sit down!” Then she went into the closet near by and began taking down from the shelves milk and bread and meat, as she slowly did so turning over the matter in her mind. Here was this man who had been stealing horses and for whose capture $600 was offered in her own kitchen. Five hundred dollars! Exactly the sum she had been wishing for—thesum that would take her down to San Francisco to school and help her make a lady of herself. And this sum may be hers if she could in some way secure this stranger, or some- how keep him in the house until help arrived Help! Why, she hardly needed help. He was weak and exhausted, and in the drawer of the kitchen table there was a loaded revolver which she well knew how to use. She came out presently and set the things before him, bringing also a teapot from the stove and pouring for him a cup of tea. Then she went and sat down by ::o window and watched him furtively as ate, In spite of his caution, he had taken off |. his hat while he was eating. She could batter see what ho was like. It was an almost ish face, worn, but not wicked, with the curling hair lying in damp clus- ters upon his pale brow. In the 8 small and well shapen, and in all his motions and manner, she felt that she oould read something of his story.

As she looked at him, fancying all this, and realizing the terrible strait ho was in, and the probable dark, fate that was be- fore him, her heart yearned with true womanly sympathy; and her feeling found expression before shoe was able to restrain herself. “Oh, how could you do it? How conld you do it!” she suddenly ex- claimed, her voice quite full of what she feolt, He looked up at her in wonder; but as his eyes met hers he understood hor, I did not do it. Upon my honor 1 did not!” “It was that man Dennit Sacramento breathed a groat sigh of re- lief. Horse stealing was held in that sootion to be a crime worse than murder; and she was by no_means free from the popular estimate of its gravo nature. “Oh, Tam glad of that!” cried she. “‘But”—she hesitated, and then went on doubtfully, “But, then, how was it? Why did they say it was you! And why did you ran away{” “Jt was Dennis’ doings, their laying it tome. He did that to clear himself. And after that, you know as well as 1 do there would have been no use in trying to prove myself innocent. They always hang a horse thief first and then consider his guilt afterwards. I had to run to save wy life.” *‘Do you know that there is a reward offored for your capture}” “I know that the Regulators are after mo,” answered the young fellow, sulleh- ly. “They came pretty near catching me, too, this noon, I just escaped them and came down the canyon by the moun- tain trail. I have had a hard run for it, and what with no sleep or food for twenn- ty-four hours, I am about used up. I feel as though I could not go another step whon I saw your house. You—you have been very good to me. I shall never for- reb—" “But what are you going to do now!"” interrupted Sacramento, ‘‘You are not safe here.” “I know it.© But ! threw them off the track this noon, and I do not think they are within five mile of me. Now I have had something to eat. 1 will take to the woods again. I hope Imay get clear away. If I don't,”"—his voice trembled and tears came to hiseyes. *‘If I don't I shall get a hanging, I suppose. Oh,what a fool I was not to prefer home to this sort of a thing! And yet, I wouldn't care 8o much either, if it wasn’t for my father and mother.” And the poor fel- low fairly broke down. *‘Hark!” Sacramento exclaimed. She had been crying, too; she could not help ho said. it. They both listened. In a moment they heard plainly the sound of horses coming down the trail. The girl turned with instant self-possession. “Go in there! Quick! Quick! is not a moment to loose! Here, your hat!” And handing his hat to him, she half pushed him across the room and into her own little room that led off from it. Then she hurridly cleared the table again, bare- ly finishing the task as the horsemen halted at the door. There were three of them. One was her father. Sacramento knew the other two men by sight. They were rough, but of the better sort of those who made up the dwellers in Kelly Gulch. The faces of all three were storn and forbidding, and they evidently had been riding hard. They dismounted together. *‘Sac,” began her father, as he entered the door, “‘hev ye seen anything of a There take I young chap, afoot or a horseback, com- ing the way?” Sacramento hadjexpected the question and was ready for it. And she meant, if it were possible, to answer it without a lie. ¢ A young chap, about eighteen years of age and five feet and a half'high,rather gox-lnoking, and with red-top boots on?” replied she. “‘Yos! yes! That's him!” cried one of the men eagerly. ‘‘Have you seen him? Has he been here?’j *‘I was only quoting from this hand- bill,” said Sacramento, taking the paper from the shelf where she had laid it. “Then you hain't seen him at all?” asked her father. “I have been right here all day, and nobody has gone by except Pete Larabee. It was he who gave me the bill. Are you sure that he came this way, the—the— horse-thief?” “No; but we didn’t know but he mighter, The chances is thet he is sloped off to the mountains, meanin’ to go through Stovepipe pass. They'll git him, though, afore sundown.” *“Its sundown now,” observed Sacra- mento. ““Then they’ve got him now,” was the sententious response. ‘‘And we should be too late for the hangin’, ef we sh’'d go back. Leastways'—this was added to his companions—‘you’d better come in and have a bite afore you go,” So presently the three men sat down to the supper that the young girl quickly prepared for them And while they were eating, she herself, at her father's bid- ding, went out to take the saddle off Bue- no, his horse, and give him feed. As she approached the door once more, a fow minutes later, she heard words which caused her to stop and listen, “Idon't like ter say anything against thet kid o’ yourn, neighbor,” one of the men was saying, ‘‘but it hez kinder seemed ter me all ther whiles' though she sorter hed some'at on her mind like, Ye don’t 'spose she knows anything ’bout thet young feller arter alll” Sacremento's father laughed at this as '.h(:;gh it was too absurd to be cons) ered. The other, however, was not too be laughed out of his suspicions. “‘Fur all we know,” persisted he, ‘‘she may hev hid him somewhere on the prem- mysis,” “‘Its easy enough to see,” returned the proprietor of the said ‘‘premmysis,” test- ily, *‘Where d'ye think she' hid him{ In her bedroom?" As he said this, Sacramento, who was now near enough to see into the kitchen, saw her father rise from his chair and step to the door of the room where she lwxoouuulad the fugitvie. Her heart almost stopped beuung a8 she saw him push open the door aud gnter the room, followed by his companion, “‘We'll make a clus search of it while we're about it,” she heard bim say within, ' And then she -&nd fluuh Tin terrible suspense upon the poarch, expe ov instant to hear the lhoulrm would follow the discovery of the fugi. tive. But no such shout was heard; and in. stead of it, s moment after, the two men came out again, her father still laughing at his friend., What could it mean? Had the young wan been aple to conceal himself in the : room and 80 evade their searchl That had heard before thas how young Mads in was not possible. Then she thought of the window. Could he have escaped indow was scarcely believe that 50 small she co he could have crept through it. he must have done so. She went hurridly to the back of the house and then down beyond the horse sheds, No sme could be seen. She halted a moment undera live-oak tree just at tho edge of the garden. The evening was vory oalm and still, and the twilight shadows wero deepening fast. Waa it the rustling of the wind in the boughs overhead that caught her ear! She listened, “Hist! I am hero—in tho tree.” The words came in a distinct whisper from directly above her, Sho stood and thought a singlo moment before replying. Then she said must get away from here at once, eager whispor. *Ono of the men sus- | pects something, and they may at any moment make a search of the place. I am going into the houso a minute. ot down at once and go through the garden and across the trail to a spring that you will find there. Its at the foot of a big sottonwood troe. Stay right there until I come.” Then she went hurriedly to the house. The three mon wore still sitting at the table, and Sacremento felt rather than saw that one of them still regarded her suspiciomsly as she came in, She did not u}mnk to them at all, but went direotly through the kitchen to her own room,and in a moment more came out, went about her work in the kitchen, and took up » pail apparently to go to tho apring for water, Ten minutes later, standing in tho shadow of the cottonwond, young Somers hoard a step, and then Sacramento, lead- And yet DEWEY & STONE'S. Bueno all saddled aud bridled, appeared. He started foward. ‘‘Hush!” she said; ‘‘they may come out at any moment. Listen to what I say. Your life depends on it, You must ride straightedown the trail for a quarter of & milo. Then, close by a big cottonwood, just like this, you will #trike a path to left. Bueno will know 1t, once you got him in it. It will bring you out, half a mile on, at a corauroy rond that crosses the swawp. This end of the corduroy has got out of order and there are some logs laid. Lead Bueno across and then ull the logs away. If you can do that, it will make trouble for those who follow you. Boyond the swamp is a big plain. Strike atraight across it, keeping the moon square on your right--the moon will be up by that time—and three hours’ riding will bring you to the new railroad. After that—God help youte get safe away!” Sacramento paused and put out her hand, “Can you remember?”’ shej de- manded. “I can; but I ean never forget—"" ever mind that. Here, take this. It is & little money. You will need it. Now mount and ride—slowly a little way, and then for your life,” The young man still had hold of her hand. The tears came into his eyes. The next moment he was gone. The next morning Sacramento told her father the story and coaxed him into for- givinE her. And the next afternoon a man brought Bueno over from the rail- road town; and then she knew that the fugitive was safe. Six weeks later a lawyer from Santa Barbara appeared with a letter from Wal- tor Somers, He was with his friends in New York. He bogged Sacramento to accept, as a gift of gratitude, at least the amount of the roward that had been of- fered. And so it was that she went down to San Francisco to school that winter, af- ter all, e — IOWA NEWS, The Washington, Iowa & Dakota isthe name of a new railroad projected from Burlington. The new city directory shows there are 11,866 families in Des Moines—or nearly two-thirds as many as the Omaha direc- tory shows. Albion Johnson, who has been an em- rloye of theChicago, Burlington & Quincy railway for the past twenty-two or three years as clerk in the freight house died a few days since at Burlington, Alexander Harrison, first cousin to President Harrison, died in Dubuque a fow days ago. He had been a residunt of that city for fifty years. His illness was occasioned by a fall some weeks ago, which culminated in blood poisoning. His age was about sixty years, The passage of a bill in the_senate to impose a tax on all achoels &ther than public schools in the state, has excited the Catholics to the greatest degree. They feel that it is a blow at their schools, and they are preparing to protest in the most earnest manner against the adoption of the bill by the house. A meeting was held at the residence of Bishop Hennesy, at Dubuque a few evenings since, which was largely attended by Cutholics. The meeting was addressed by Bishop Hen- nesy, who stated that the Ostholics of that city alone p.fi' $2,8(0 yearly in sup- port of public schools, -n«i as much to carry on their own schools besides, A maes meeting was called for to take steps to defeat the bill in the bouse, and peti- tions protesting against its passage will be circulated, The bill affects other de- nominations as well as the Catholics, A special to the Chicago Tribune, from Scranten, Pa., ‘A sensation was produced here to-day by the suicide of Andrew J.
