Price, %0, Bl titated for Coin, One of the cleverest and most myste- rious thefts ever prepetrated in California took place at Sanger. Con Harrigan, proprietor of the Begquoia hotel at Millwood, had forwarded to him from the Bank of Central Californla in Fresno & sack of coln amounting to $1,600 The money went as far as Sanger by the express company, and was there called for by John Price, manager of the stage lne' to Millwood. Price put the sack of coin in & valise and carried it to the stage office, putting it in a locker for safe keep- ing. In the morning the stage driver put the vilise aboard without looking into it and evening. When Harrigan opéned it he found it contained not his mouney, but a brick wrapped up in & twine sack. The welght was almost equal to th.t of the sack of coln.

The engineer recelved warning and stopped his train before reaching the spot The military today arrested H. H.

DENVER, Nov. 17.—Retail coal dealers who have heretofore obtained their supply ptincipally from the northern Colorado flelds, decided at a conference today to bring coal from the east for thelr cus- tomers and an order was telegraphed for a large shipment from Missourl river polnts. This coal will be sold to con- sumets in Denver at §7.25 a ton. Hereto- fore simflar coal produced in Colorado has been #old here at 34 to $4.50 a ton. Advices from over the state show that the situation in many towns in the state 18 becoming serious. The town of Greeley 18 almost otit of coal and orders have been sent to Illinols for five cars. The coal will cost consumers $10 per ton. The out- put of the Haton and Whiteash mines, a few miles from Greeley, is being taken by farmers, who camp at the mine while wait- ing for thelr turn, being now delayed fully a week. .

Gaellc—=Man Whe Went to the Poor House to Dodge Thiraiy Fri “At ‘the Diihdfum petty sesstons court in left flelds | Dublin ‘county nine redpectable yourg men |! weré chargéd recently with “unlawfully sembling together to dfsturb the peace.” A policeman swore that they aff repeatedly threw volleys of stones at him. On cross- examination he admitted that at the time of the'stone throwing the young men were only ten yards away from him and none of the stones hit hiny, The charge behind the charge was that the young men attended a Gaelic class whefe they met-“feloniously to learn”. the language of their forebears. Counsel for the defense offered to produce witnesses who would clearly establish the innocence of the young men. But the prose- cutlon objected to any evidence for the de- fense, on the ground that, under the act of Edward 111, the defendants were not en- titled to it. The court sustained the ob- Jection and the young men were convicted, But here is a case less serlous and more novel, reported in the Dublin Freeman by its correspondent all the way down in “Droll Donegal.” A gentleman named McGroary recently arrived in Donegal from the United Blllel ‘‘where he had made tons of money.” He put up in a first-class hotel, but he didn't | like the ways of tha peoplé. 8o, in order to escape homesickness, he taught the bar- keepers how to make highballs, cocktalls and smashes. He soon had a large clrcle of new acquaintunces. They were all good fel- lows, willing to glve and take, but, al- though Mr. McGroary was amply able to hold his own with any cne of them, he could not stick to the pade set for him by the crowd. 80 he tried another hotel and soon found himself laboring under the same dif- fleulty, Theén he rented 'a villa at Ballyweel ‘There he lived In great state and enjoyed the boating and fishing. In the evenings nearly all the wports in Donegal came to #ee the “fine Amerikin gintleman” in his villa in Ballyweel. He had entirely too many friends and his doctor told him that if he did not cut down the number the shades of the long-departed Irish snakes would all appear to him. But Mc- Groary was a wan of tesources and he knew how to dodgoe snakes. Bo he decided to go to the poor house, and thither he went, sure enough. in a carriage and pair, The master of the establishment was flab- bergasted, but Mr. McGroary's perSuasive powers soon softened him. 80 he ailowed “dll to him- welf.” “Now,” sald McGroary, “here at last I will have peace. If them blokes want to see me they will have to hunt me up in the poor hous The master sent for the legal adviser ot the Board of Guardlans and explained the case to him. The learned gentleman was puzzied. In vain he searched through. all the musty statutes, He could find no law to keep rich people out of the poor house. He advised the master (o bring the matter before the board at the next ular meet- ing. In a few days the board assembled in all its accustomed solemnity. “After the transaction of the usual rou- tine business’'—to borrow from the local re- porters—the master rose and appeared to be in great embarrassment. “I wish to have the Instructions of the board,” sald he, “as to what charge I should make for the main- tenance of a gentleman named Mr. Mc- Groary, who is occupying all alone by him- self & room in the poor house.” A Guardian—Does he seem to be satisfied with his new quarters? The Master—Perfectly. Another Guardian—Is he any inconveni- ence 10 the other Inmates of the establ ment? The Master—Not at all, sir. The deliberated at length, and finally resolved to permit the gentleman to remain in his room, If he would consent to pay one guinea a week for his maintenance. The master was appointed a committee of one to inform Mr. McGroary of the decision of the board.
