This week the banks. through rthelr attor- ney-nu retaliated by entering suit against the county for 855,000, the amount representing county warrants which they now hold. The county is badly in debt. and it has been the cus- tom tor the banks to cash the orders and hold them until the incoming of the mnnty tax.

I was silly enough to de- w mend a drink and laid down. alas! an. a.“ other quarter. I had asked my ques- tion, the hurkeeper had handed me the decanter, and I had poured out the atoll with as much ease and grown-up confidence as I could assume. when a singular incident occurred. As it had some bearing upon my fortune. I may relate it here. The ceiling or the sa- loon was supported by a half-dozen wooden columns about 18 inches square, standing in a line parallel with the counter or the bar and about two feet from it. The trout at the bar was . crowded with customers, when sudden- ly. to my astonishment. they. one and i all. put down their glasses and hurried- ly backed into the spaces between the columns. At the same moment a shot was tired from the street through the large open doors that stood at right angles with the ilront oi the counter and the columns. The bullet raked and splintered the moldings oi the counter front. but with no other damage. The shot was returned from the upper end of the bar. and then. for the first time. i became aware that two men with leveled revolvers were shooting at each other through the saloon. The by- standers in range were fully protected by the wooden columns; the barkeeper had ducked below the counter at the first shot. Six shots were exchanged by the duelists, but as far as i could see nobody was hurt. A mirror was smashed, and my glass had part of its rim carried cleanw away by the third shot. and its contents spilled. I had remained standing near the counter, and i presume i may have been pro- tected by the columns: but the whole thing passed so quickly and i was so utterly absorbed in its dramatic novel- ty that i cannot recall having the slightest sensation of physical fear. indeed. i had been much more fright- ened in positions 0! less peril. My only ronrern. and this was paramount. was that I might betray by any word or movement my youthfulness, aston- iahinent. or unfamiliarity with such an experience. I think that any shy, vain srhooiboy will understand this, and would probably feel an i did. 30 strong was this feeling that while the sting of gunpowder was still in my aes- min i mow-«I toward the bar. sad tah~ tux up my broken glass, said to the bariuwpor. perhaps somewhat slowly and diflldratly: 'Will you please Ml me nnothrr glass? it‘s not my fault if this any broken.‘ The harkmper. rising flushed and excited from behind the bar. iooimi at me with a queer smile. and thou [mused the «manic-r and a fresh glass. i heard a laugh and an oath behind mo. and my rhu-ks flunhed as i took a ringle gulp of the fiery spirit nnd hurried away."~â€" si Ymiih's Companion. l EEK?“ F; a Irwnunlflm (GAâ€"-___...___A. has FACTS ABOUT 8A RDINES.
