Tho plaintiff's attor- neys claimed that cnough had been brought forth in the way of evidence toshow that the verdict of the jnry was not strictly regular, while the city atorney contended that enough evidence had been put forth to show that the maker of the famous Gorman aftidavit had lied in some purticulars, and that, thevefore, his afidaviv was subject to city and the plain- dishelief in every other particular. Judge Deemer took the subject under advisement. Oficer Kemp ran across four suspicious looking churacters last evening at the corner of Main street and Broadway and arrested them.

Maxfield, a Chicago travel n, at the Murray last evening, as he shifted his chair just another hiteh, so that any stray zephyr that happened along would be sure to strike his whiskers. “Istopped over on my way to Arizona in response to a telegram, and Jeft the next night for Kansas City. “Say,” he continued, as he mopped sev- cral piats of perspiration from his brow, “‘that was one of the hottest, driest trips | evermade. This weather strongly reminds me of “If Colonel Dante, formerly of Italy, but at present residing in parts a5 yet unknown, Will address, with or without stamp; yours truly, he will hear of something to his a vantage. Or, if Veritas or Taxpayer or some other equally well informed | will furnish me with the colonel’s addrc it will oblige me very much. 1 have bee told that the colonel wrote several cantos of mattor about a trip he and u friend of his, Mr. Virgil, took through some arid regious of which, 1 believe, Mr. Virgil was a part owner, or which, at least, he had_desizns uponn the way of an irrigation scheme or something of that kind. It is understood that the colonel's work sold quite well, nearly all the second edition having been disposed of without assistance from the author's relatives. I am always real glad to see struggling genius get anead even at a royalty of only 10 per cent after the second edition is sold. and for this reason I wish to ascertain the colonel’s whereabouts, that 1 may be able to put him onto a good thing in the way of material for another book. “I have heard a number of persons re- mark that this same Kansas was the countr. Daute wrote about, but I think they sveak unadvisedly and _more from an arid point of view than’ otherwise, for 1 have observed thata great many people in Kansus are troubled with aridity, which seems quite u prevalent ailment down there. It might bo as well for the colonel to bring a few canteens with him, if my letter brings him out here, as they are hard to et in Kansus, Itis thought by some folks thut they can be obtained by stealth and telegraphy, but it will be found that the man who brings o bottle to a traiu in response to a telegram will h to run the gauntlet of enough thirsty persons to popu- late a wharf tenement, each and every one of whom will perjurc himself and swear that he, and he only, sent that telegram, So it is far better to conciliate, subsidize, and other- wise square yourself with the porter of the Pullman, who can generally tell you where to find the desired hquor, But all the same, [ should advise Dante, if he goes that wiy, to bring along quite a plethora of canteens and things.” “Say,” interrupted o perspiring list- cner, | “I thought you started to tell ' us about the hot trip you took and here you are talking ubout poor old, dried up Dante and the liquor problem in Kunsas.” “That's so,” assented Mr. Maxfield, *‘but just let me talk awhile, won't you? You all scem to be lazy enough to be good listeners. “In speuking of Kansas as an arid region 1 did not wish to imply thut the whole state is arid. Only the western part of it is that way. = Its citizens, however, are, almost without exception, troubled with aridity, and there is hardly a manin the state who does not carry three or four alinses and u couple of alibis to aid him in obtaining medicine 1 case he should have a sudden attack of this aridity, which some- times happens. “Speaking of arid regions, however, it is not until the train gets into western Kansus and southeastern Colorado that the country itself is found to be noticeably arid. Then the wayfarer is upt to notice it quite in- tently, esbecially by daylight. The sand, which' seems to be a feature of the country, has & sunburnt and chapped appesrance, and the prairie dogs and cucti look hageard and dissipated. The cattle skeletons, which secm to be a ver- ennial crop down shere, look bright and coutented, however, which is, 1 suppose, a good thing. IU's good deal like that region described in Tue Bee the other day. +'At one pluce on the road, out in western Kansas, 1 went iuto a aay cosch and struck up an acquuintance with & man who was in the farm lana and ranch selling business out there. He looked prosperous, and seemed inclined to conversation and embon- point, and I, with one dreamy, languorous eye on tho sad, saa landscape, wondered how could be thus. Finally, with blushing curiosity aud a sweeping, piercing glance at the sunburnt plains, T asked: **But what do you raise here? you live on?' “The real estate man looked grieved to think that such ignorance should exist in the hat of one who had told him he was indigenous to the west. He shifted in his seat impressively and fixing his cold gray eye upon me he answered compassionately ‘Strauger, we raise h—1, and live on the credulity of fool investors from the stutes.’ SAfter all, now 1 come to think of it, 1 had a pretty good time on taat trip.

Well, as 1 said, wo sang. T is, most of us did. I saw, at the end of the second stanza of the first hymn, that there was mno one present who could appreciate musical talent, and I do not care to waste m sweetness on the desert air.

The Curlous Adventures of Four Callfornia Guns, LAt the corner of Main and Commer- clal streets, Los Angles, planted muzzle downward, are two curious cannon, also two old smooth-bores on - guard at the court house doors, These old picces have figured in every Mexican revolution in California and in conquest, says the Los Angeles Herald. In 1818 Bouchard, the pirate, visited the coast. The conntry was practically unprotected and the piratical craft vis- ited Monterey, burned the custom house, sacked the village, and then came back to the Retugio ranch, above Sunta Barbara. doing considerable damage there. The vessel next landed at Sun Juan Capistrano, and after plundering the mission sailed away and was never heard of again in California. The Spanish government then sent out some cannon to protect the coast, and these four cannon are some of those sent. IProm the time of Mexico’s independence, 1821, to that of the American occupa- tion in 1846, there were perhaps a dozen revolutions and counter-revolutions be- tween the nortenos and surenos, and the capital of the territory was removed either north or south, owing to the resi- dence of the victorious *“‘pronouncing governor. But the most noted battle in which these cannon figured was on the bloodless plains of Cahuenga, a beautiful little spot a few miles north of Los An- geles, There was a revolution on foot. The south had pronounced against Governor Micheltorena and his battalion of soldiers. Tt was on the memorable 10th day of February, 1845, that the sans culottes of Castro and Pico confronte each other in battle array, each army about 400 strong. Pico had the formid- able four cannon and the valiant Castro had three equally as dangerous. The guns were mounted on carretas and drawn upon the govy field by oxen. About 100 shots were exchanged, Castro's gunners frequently using rocks and peboles, evidently being short of ammunition, It seems that each con- tending side understood the art of war, and as the guns were drawn up in posi- tion would retreat to a safe distance. The merry war occupied two days, ana when the smoke of battle cleared away and the roll was called it was found that —a mule had been killed. Castro duly envolled this in his report of the *casu- i When the forces under Commodore Stockton captured Los Angeles these historic cannon passed into the hands of the gringos, Two of the guns were planted on Fort Hill, overlooking the eity, and tho other two were planted in front o the commodore’s headquartors, which fwas about a half block ditint from the corner where these same two cannon are now planted, but wrong end up. Believing that the eonquest was com- plete, Commodore Stockton took a trip down to San Diego, leaving Licutenant Gillespie in charge with fifty men, His instructions were to preseeve order, but to be lenient, He soon filled tho guard house with suspected persons. Finally a “revolutionist” named Varela had been fined for disorderly conduet: he refused to pay and defied Gillespie's authority. He organized aband of about twenty men, and one night they attacked the adobe headquarters of Gillespie by dis- charging their muskets in the air’ and beating drums, evidently expecting to frighten the Americans. ~ They received a volley; one man was wounded in the foot, and they gave up the sicge. Some of the political loaders, led by Flores, agreed on the “‘revolt,” and they “pronounced” against the American oc- cupation. Los Angeles was captured and with it only two of the cannon, or, rathor, the Mexicun forces only got two, and these were uséless. Under the terms of surrender Gillespie and forco were marched out of the ecity in military order, flag flying, frum beating and with their arms, inclnding cannon. Gillespie had alveady spiked the cannon in the fort on Fort Hill, there he left them, each half filled with ball. The other two he carried to San Pedro, where, before embarking on the steamship, he was to deliver them into the possession of the military forces at that point. But hespiked the guns and rolled them into the !my.

Ry CHICAGO’S GENTLER SIDE, flung The Arcadian Freedom o« Intercourse Between the Sexes After Dinner. T have seen a thing in Chicago that T never heard of anywhere eise, and that looked a little awkward at first for a few moments, I refer toa peculiar freedom of intercourse between the sexes after a dinner or on a rout, says Julian Ralph in Harper's. 1n one case the men had withdrawn to the library and a noted cntertainer was in the full glory of his career reciting a poem or giving a dialect imitation of a conversation he had overheard on a street ear, The wife of the host trespassed, with a little show of timidity, to say that the little girls, her daughters, were about to go to bed and wanted the noted enter- tainer to “'make a face” for them, ap- parently for them to dream upon. ““Why, come in,” said the host. 40, may we,” said the wife, very art- sly, and in came all the ladies of the party, who,it seems, had gatnered in the hallway. The room was blue with smoke, but all the ladies *“'loved smoke,” and 50 the cvening wope on gaily. The next oceasion was 1n a mansion on the lakeside. An artist and a poet, well well known in both hemispheres, were the special guests. When the coffee was les ! brought on there was 1o movement on the part of the women toward leaving the table. No suggestion was made that they should do so; there was no apology offered for their not doing 8o the sub- ject was not mentioned. There were glasses of “green mint” for all, and ci- gars for the men. Then the stories flowed and the laughter bubbled. The queer thing was that there was no ap- Special Notlcas.

Many years ago the czy resided within its wooden walls, elogely surrounded by his relatives and noblés. The wooden fortificutions proved inadequate to re- #ist the furious onslaughts of the savago Tartars, and 500 years ago they were ro- placed by stone ones, and now, too, the imperial family has abandoned Moscow and spends most of it time in St Petersburg. But this is still tho holy city, and to the Kremlin churches must all the czars come to be crowned, w a corvespondent. The grand coronation procession must first enter the Church of the Redeemor to offer prayers, then £0 10 St. Michael's, and finally in the Cathedral of the Assumption, ‘the most sacred edifice in all Russia, the czar places the erown upon his own head, for no one elso is held worthy to perform: sueh a duty. This palatial citadel, the Kremlin, when seen from a distance, is a most brilliant and dazzling sights walls,roofs, spires and cupolas shine with masses of red, green, white, gold and silver, un- tarnished by time, for all the colors are renewed as fastus they fade. Just out- sido the walls is a fine group of bron: statuary representing a peasant appeal- Rus- ing toa Ruestun gencral to save the Kremlin from the French: it is strik- ingly suggestive, as the man points eagerly upward to the Kremlin's towers, only a’short distance away The most holy of the five entrances to the fort is that known as the *“Redecmer Gate.” Over this is a picture of Christ, s0 sacred that no one can pass beneath it with covered head: even the czar him- self conforms to this custorn.

His concert com- pany was about to begin an evening ens tertainment at w Baptist church, and Mr. Musin, arrayed in faultiess evoning dress, thought he would view the audi- ence without heing scen. To accomplish his purpose ho stopped behind a curtain which hung at the back of the platform. There was a splash, and tho violinist found himself in three feet of water, He emerged a very wet and angry man, Mr. Musin had {nadvertently stepped into the baptismal font. It was after 8 o'clock and the concert had begun, A young man came to the violinist's res- cue, however, and said he would provide Mr. Musin with a dey outfit. But it was half an hour before ho did, and Mg Mvein was several minutes late in mal ingr his appearanco. The new trousers fitted him rathor awkwardiy, and he was not in a pleasant frame of mind, but he got through with his part of the pro- gram, and the audience is probably still gnorant of the fact that he had fallen into the font, il g Noble Soul.
