AN HONEST THIEF.
Tu 1865, when the telegraph vas
comparatively a now thing in
Southern California: the operators
of the Los Angeles circuit • found
their eoiumuuioation suddenly out
off. Linemen wore seat out to dis-
cover the break and •eli'eot repairs,
but they returned with the surpris
ing intelligence that the break was
a serious one, and called for a lot of
Hupplies,
About a toile of wires and poles
had disappeared as completely as if
the earth had opened and swailow,ed
them up. Further search showed
no trace of the missing materials,
and at considerable expense now
ones were furnished, and the line
was reconstructed.
Then a detective was elnployed
to investigate the mystery. The
country was nothing but a desert,
and the detective worked for three
weeks without success. At the end
of that time, however, he stumbled
upon a small ranch, at which he put'
up for the nigbt.
He found the ground enclosed
with a neat wire fence, and in' the
morning taxed the ranchmau with
having stolen the telegraph •wird.
The man admitted the fact at once.
`Oh, yes,' he said, `I've been liv
in' hero nigh onto three year, and
have watched that old telegraph
wire alt that time, I never see
nothing go over.it, and reckoped it
wasn't used.'
There seemed no reason to ques-
tion the loan's sincerity, and the'
detective contented himself with
giving him a lecture on the in-
visibility of the electric current.
The case was reported to headquar-
ters, of eJur;e, but nu prosecution
folowed.
DISSATISFIED DAKOTANS.
The plight into which coupe of
the Dakota settlers have fallen is
pitiful. • If" their experience was
related and spread abroad it would
bo a severe warning to others to go
not and do likewise. The Edmonton
Bulletin (Liberal) says that a letter
has been.reeeived there from Foster
Bounty, Dakota. Part of it reads
•as follows : .,'This country was
praised alp to us Canucks, and we
thought it really better than it pans
out to be. We have drouth. here
this year, and had a frost last year.
Don't know what is in store for 'us
another season. So,youk.will under-.
stand how hard it is for -us to be-
lieve anything we hear of a new
country." The writer then asked
a nurirber of questions regarding
the crops, the weather, and the pro-
spects of the Edmonton • district,
and proceeds: "If the country suits
us we would conte back next spring
hnd move all our stock and iull'le-
nlents out there, a wqolo settlement
of us. 'Vou say we shoull send a
dolcgate to report. All of us to-
gether could not raise money enough
to pay one man's fare out there.
We have had two or three seasons of
no crops here, and you can very
well sen the fix we are in. All we
can do is to try and save our stock,"
independent and unsolicited testi-
mony is very important. It shows
that the stream of emigration from
the States towards 'Canada is just
beginning, and will completely vin-
dicate the superiority of our own.
North-west. Probably no Cana-
dian would ever have set foot in
Dakota if the allurements of Yon.
kce agents had not been unfortun-
ately strengthened by some mean.

ASSISTING "THE GREATEST
• M AN TIIAT EVER LIVED."
The Duke of Wellington detested
being helped, not from ingratitude
but from two feelings—one, that he
did not like to be thought, what he
certainly was not, decrepit; the
other, that he knew very well the
majority of' persons who helped
him simply did so in order to be
able to say that they had done so.
This was to him, revolting. Stand
tug opposite to Apsley HIouse iu
the evening in Piccadilly, when the
street was even more crowded than
it is now, the Duke was hesitating
on the curbstone. A gentleman
nearly as• old as himself made some
demonstration of assisting him to
cross the road, endeavoring to check
the tide of cabs and other vehicles
that was setting strongly. When the
Duke reached the gate of Apsley
House ho touched his hat, and said,
'1 thank you,sir'.' The elderly atran•
ger imtnodiately uncovered. Hold-
ing his hat at his knee, he addl•ess•
od• tho Duke as follows:—"My
lord, I have passed a long and
not uneventful life; but never did
I hope to reach the day when I
might be of the slightest assistance
to the greatest loan that ever lived.
Tho Juke looked at him calmly;
and in a voice not in tiro least
allotted with emotion, replied,
`Don't be a d—d fool l' and
walked into Apsley IIouse,
•
GOLTRING A GLASS EYE,
"Thar' gods the mewled man in
Chinuok.l" growled one of the rotd
inosabaeks of the Gunnison valley+
es he pointed to a man on the op•
posito side of the street.
"How so 1"
"When he first came hero we had
a light. It was to be a fair fight
..and no knifing: I got .him down
and got the gouge. on Ilia right eye
and what d'ye?pose happened 1"'
"1 a oried quits."
"No, ho didn't, Durn his shedder,
but he- mad e glass eye thur, and 1
kept foolin' with it until he had mo
licked !"
