Honesdale was the county seat < f Wayne county in 1843, at which time a frame Court-houso was erected. This building was fully adequate to the needs of the county at the time, but as popa.. lation and buiness increased the lawyers and judges claimed that there was need of a larger and better one. Every movement on the part of the authorities to have a new Court-house erected was opposed by the peopleatlarge, the popu lation of the county being chiefly edn posed of farmers. Finally a Grand Jury was drawn which recommended the building of a new Court-house, aid in 1876 the work was commenced by order of the court. The building was to cost g160,000. The movement met with bit. ter opposition throughout the county, and ambitious politicians took aulvani tage of the feeling to foster and increase the opposition. Party lines were lost might of. There were no parties except the " Court-house" and "anti-Court. house" parties. The leading member of the Board of County Commissioners was Thomas Brown. He was a prosperous and ex perienced builder and contractor, living near Honesdale. The charge of super intending the work on the new Court house fell to him. He set his heart on the completion of the building, as he was ambitious to leave it as a monlimenlt of his skill and judgnment. Among the leaders in the anti-Court-houso part. was William Bartwell, a wealthy fanier of anl interior township. lie was as de tornined that the building should not be ereeted under the supervision of tihe CommissioIers thwn in ofliceo as Commnis sioner Brown was that it should be. Injunctions and legal proceedings of every kind were obtained and brought against the Commissioner at the insti gation of the anti-Court-houso leaders, and the work was greatly hampered mai delayed. On the local election of 1877 o"erything depolded. Oli(es wrre I ic filled which, if the nnti-Court-houwr pa ty was successful, would compel th, wocrk on the Court-house to cease, ut if the positions were filled by the calni. dates of the other party, the coml>letion of the building would be assured, under the regine by which the work had 1been commenced. The campaign was a hit. tar one, and both brown and lartwell imed freely of their timo and means to strengthen their respective followings. Tell anti-Court-house ticket was elected by an overwhelming majority. The result was followed quickly by the death of Commissioner Brown, who w.as broken-hearted over the defeat of is fond hopes. William lartweil was elected to fill his place at the mext elee tion. It was sutpo'cd that Thona; Brown left his family well iprov;ded for, but it was fotud that he was heavily iln volved. His hItomestead was Imort gaged. and there were other clails against the estate. Brown's son had been clerk to the Board of Comlissioners under the old management, but lie was turned out when the Hartwell board came into power. The creditors of the estate he came pressing, and the Brown homestead was ad1vertised for sale by the sheriff. In tlhis strait, young brown went. to Comnussioner Hart well, laid t ho matt em before him, and appealed to him to sat isfy thme claims against his late fath.r 's properly, take a mortgage on the hions. stead anil piv'e them an opportumity to cinve it.

[From the Cheyenne (Wyoming) Leader.] Tliey come in crowds at this season. Sometimes they are members of the peaceftl order of the Young Men's flu manity Union and their families; some times members of the semi-miihtary or ganization, the B3ayonet and Sword S0 eiet.y, and their families; sometimes they are 3taymond excu.sioniste but by the time they reach Oh eyoune they have the travel-worn appearance common to tour ists. Local Western travelers get off the train and tramp it up town; commer cial travelers toke the 'bus with the cattle men from Texas, and are driven to the 'hotela, but the tourists pour out of the sleeping cars and make direct for the railroad dining-room. The men wear black caps, pulled down on their heads till the bands touch their shirt collars, and dusters so long as to almost sweep the ground, and which are oreased and limp as if they had been used te sweep the car floor. One man tourist always looks like every other man tour ist.. His costume is a disguise, just as his manners, talk, and way of living on a tour give him an identity different from that which belongs to him at home. But if the nen are commonplaco and uninteresting, it must be said of women tourists that they look dowdyish. They wear on their heads shapeless "walking' hats of a style fashionable soen years ago, adorned with dull-hed artifleial flowers, which have been mnshed flat while the wearers have been lolling against the backs of ear-seats or on con vetient shoulders. ''he woman tourist vh' picks her way in slippers from the ear to the (inting hal, or who clumps along in her hlusband's rubbers, also wears a (luster. It is ''mussed'' into a thonusand lmps and folds, and has streaks of dust and cinders on it running in every direction. Thero arc two char a"teristics, aside from s'lovenliness, which mark the woman tourist. The first is tlint her face is utterly devoid of com plexion, and the seeodil that instead of 1-inking she always sluekl(:. When a mob of tourists have assault el (he dining-room they tako possessio'' of its There is no one in the dining ro(m to be considered, excepting those of their party. And how well they all know each other. Such familiarity as prevails among them, one would tlink could only be the r suilt of living for years as members of the same house hold. But they have been acquainted, in most cases, no longer than it takes ni express train to rin to Chevenne from -tle wilds of Jersey or Egyptian Illinois. in the dining-ron, they clatter the dishes, "hisst" at, the waitress, rattle knives and forks, serape chairs noisily on the floor, talk from one tablo to an other a dozen att a time, and make a hed kin of it beau tifl i ly. Tho meal over, they ialk up and down the station pliat form in couples or fours; or, selecting a "native," ia knot of them will set to work punping him. Then their wit and knowledge crop out. Thry know they are west. of the Missonri liver and that 1tey hnve lpassed m:tlty -:ianllty towns along the Union 'acilie. Therefore they are on the frontier-in the western wilds - anl they proceed to show that they have lvft their civilization behind then. It was too thin to ivear this journey through. When they talk with one of the benighted here, whose experience away from home has not perchance been limnited to a single trip, they snigger and giggle, and ask whether this town's nihmai really Sianm, or Shianghaui, or Shv Ann? and w~1hthr t hero is really an'y town 1baek of the Phonuix lilock, th'e Iter- Ocean H otel, and the Opera-hn ni?

DANGERS OF BURGLING. A WESTERN MDNIOUlT tAID. A Friabtened Ilonusebreaker and the Story lie Told when lie Cooled Down a Little. [From the tilwaukee Stu..) It is the general impression atiotlg peoplo who havo ever thought of the matter at all, that burglars, those enter. prising citizoes who enter houses at night to rob, in the dark, not knowing but a dozen revolvers may be pointed at them, are the bravest men in the world. On the contrary, they are the most cow. ardly. There is not one burglar out of a hundred but would desert before he would go into a battle, if he were a sol dier, and the business of a burglar l5 not half as dangerous as braking on a freight train, working around a printing press, or holding a position on a police force. The mat' who goes to a Sunday picnic, with an excursio:l from a city, takes his life in his hand, and is in more danger than any burglar is in entering a house at night. The boy who at tends an elevator in a factory, or the girl who works a sewing machinc in an establislh mont where shafting and helts run over head, is in more danger of being killed than a burglar is in the practice of his calling. Not long since, a citizen, who was I roubled with heart disease, was lying awake after midnight, when he heard a burglar effecting an entrance at a win dow of the sleeping room. Being lone some he kept still and allowed the visitor to come in, thinking he might be good company. As the burglar entered the room, the citizen raised up In bed, placedi a pillow in front of him, pointed a long bony finger at the intruder, and told him to hol up his hands. Tho burglar did so, and in one hand was a revolver. The citizen told the burglar to throw that revolver out of a window into the street, which was dono at once, and it could be heard to drop into the road. The burglar trembled like a leaf, and begged the citizen with heart disease to sparo his life, as he was the sole sup port of an old mother. The citizen told him ho need have no fear, and ordered him to turn up the gas, which he did, and the two men looked at each other. The burglar was a sharp-faced boy of twenty, a coward if there ever was one. The citizen told him to bring a pack of cards off a stand, and sit down on the foot of the bed. The citizen shuflted the cards and dealt out a couple of hands, and told the burglar lie would play him a game of seven up to see winch was the biggest fool, and to allow I ho visitor to collect his nei yes, which w ero badly shattered. At first he trem bled so he could hardly play. but finally got interested in the game and forgot, apparently, where he was. The citizen apologized for not having clothes on that would be more appropriate, and otherwise made the burglar feel at home, and after they had played a couple of gaines of seven up, and the third had been sawed off on the burglar, the citi zen began to talk to him about his pro fession. Said he: "Now, 1 have heard a great deal about burglars, but. I never saw onn until you dropped in this evening, and I must thanl you for helping me to pass ar. evening that otherwise might have been lonely. I have always regarded burglars as men who were brave even to rashness, butt you seem to be about the worst cow ard I ever saw. When you came in with your revolver, and I pointed my finger at you, which I assure you was ntoi loaded, you held up your hands as high as you could, coinsidering that the life was seared out of you, I had no weapilons5, and you were armed. Why didni't you shoot ? What (did you sm' render for, aind act the coward ? By this net you have brtouight reproach upon01 a class of men tihat are simpoosed to ha. br-ave. What haive you g~ot to say for yourself, anyway ? Take a cigar there, and ligiit it, and tell me all you know, abiout the burglar business, or'I may be tempted, invalid as I am, to hit you with a pillow.' The I mrghsir looked at the " inval i, w ho was hi'' enoug~h to eat him i-aw, n'o tred that lie had no weapmon, seemied ashamed of himself, then lie took a eigar and lit it, and said: "'Well, boss, this is the rawest deal I ever, got, and I have b)een in a good imny tight places. You seem1 to hai un alrmned, and1( y'ou dlon't know buht I ami ltoaded down to thle gua rds withI firearms, and yet you have more gall than any man I ever met. You seem candlid andi lhotniest., and1( yet I feel as though if [ made a move you would pull a1 pair of ;myvy revolvers from unmdeir the bedl eIl ifhes, antd that, by touchiing a spring oni the foot-hoard of the bed with your foot, a battery of artillery would i oli out and take p)osition. I dlon't kno>w now but you have touched an electiet button that connects wvith the police sta tion, and I feel as though a platoon of lpolico might march iu the room at any nmomnent. So you see, you have me cm - p)h tely in your power. "I donm't mind( telling you, in (coni_ deuce, though I wouldn't liiave you give it away, a it would injure me in my business, that I mam the worst cowar'd that ever lived, I was always that wa so much so that my folks 'oldt nmev'er indultcO me to learni a trade in which thero was any (danger of getting hur-t. Everv tratde seemed full of danger- to me, so '[ took to sneak-fthieving, and from flhat fell to doing burglar work, 1f. is the safest busiess in the woi-ld, except being a hi-milliiner. It is not once in a thousand times that anybmody ever hurts a burglar. Ninety-nin1o out of a hiun-. dred houses have no revolveru, anmd if ther-e is 0on0 it is not loaded, aiid if it is headed, the man (does not shoot it. A man had rrther shout to burglars to go away than to shoot thiem,. One ini a while a reckless, blood-thirsty imn shoots one of us, but such men are scarce, and ought to bte arrested1. T1hme most dainger we have is in falling (tver chairs, or cuttiing 'ouir fingers on these wire screens, If the people would care.. fully remove the chairs fromti a r oim mind have the screens arraniged to swing open, we would1 have ani easy time. A II hey have to do is to tell us to go away, md we go. If you had said, when, vmm mcardl me at the winthow, 'Bjoss, that is >iyed out. Ytou light ciut,' I wt ii1, anve goncaright away. We don't wants 0.make any trouble. All we want is a aiir show. We never shoot unless somnet >ersonl tries to arrest us, But there is b of a b)urglar anywhere but is afraid of g is shadow." The citizenf told the ba~rglar lie was lad to hear it, and wa pleased withI thle iterview, and after >rosentinig the burg ur with his card ani a co)uple of cigars, sked him to withdraw, as he was t-I inning to get sleepy, and the night I' rowler lit another cigar, and took an xtra handful of matches to use in 1 au his revolver in the street, and w it ti u4e pa..n dlooked out the i.) on the ground for the lost revolver, and swearing because the citizen wouldn't j come out in his night-shirt and hlelp him' find it. a A CIII ,8l' PRA YER. a Ilow it iclted the Iletnrt of Aitlssonrl's Act. ibg Governor, Governor Campbell has Issued a par don to Eli Burnett, of Bates county, Mo., who was at the July term, 1882, rt sentonced to three years inl the Peniton tiary for grand lareeny.
