SUNDAY, JAN. 8 1889.
A Hara Case.
Robert Flynn, who says his regular
business is ‘“chambermaid in a livery
stable,’’ loaded himself to the muzzle
with whiskey on Friday evening and
going down on Main street disturbed
~the peace and shocked the modesty of
the residents of that. vicinage by profane and vulgar remarks. He had
recently been in Sacramento and he
wanted all within sound of his aunmelodious voice to note the fact that
he had ruled the police of the capital
éity with an iron hand. He wanted
it distinctly understood that he was a
terror, from Terrortown, and that the
first. officer of the Queen City of the
Sierras who was rash enough to cross
his deadly path would be annihilated.
Just then Marshal Neagle hove .in
sight and took the refractory drunk in
tow. ‘The officer dragged him part of
the way to. jail, then-'tried to.stand
him:up against the side of a building
ao as to‘get a fresh grip on him. But
Flynn. would not stand.. Four times
Neagle hoisted him-into a perpendicalar -positjon, -andfour times-his knees
closed: up like-a weak-jointed jackknife and he collapsed in a heap at
the base of the wall used as a backCitizen Charles Adolph was
then invited to lend a hand and the
two escorted or rather carried the
obstreperous chap to jail. He was
subsequently taken before Justice
Wadsworth who fined him the costs.
He cried like a
baby and made an abject plea to the
court for mercy, saying it was the
first time in his twenty-five years of
existence that he-had been arrested,
Tt was his ‘pleading and tears that
saved him;‘from a heavier sentence.
Flynn was formerly a resident. of
Alleghany, Sierra‘.county, and says
he is going back there as soon as he
gets out of jail.

cradits to be given on this account.

course of study for the schools of the
county. :
The Pine Leat Scale.
Some ofthe forest trees in’ the foothills are infested with insect pests,
and nota few fruit growers have feared
that they might eventually get into
the orchards and do much damage.
Specimens sent from this city recently
to W. G. Klee, State Inspector of
Fruit Pests, elicit from him the opinion
_that-thereis-no-danger_of the scale . .
, taking to fruit trees, He says its
{ yavages are entirely confined. to coniferous trees, Itis known as the pine
leaf scale and is found in the astern
States as well as here. It belongs: to
the same!family as the destructive
Han Jose scale, but differs widely in
appearance from the latter.

Arrested on Suspicion,
It has been ascertained that a
blacksmith employed in the quarry at
Rocklin made the iron rounds of the
~ yope ladder used by the two men who
recently robbed a Central Pacific express car néar Clipper Gap, §50 reward had been offered for information as to where or by whom the
rounds were made, butthe maker did
not come to thefront. This and other
circumstances have given rise to the
suspicion that the blacksmith had a
hand in the robbery as an accomplice,
and he is now in jail.

‘SACRED SEVEN. —
1
The tufluence That Nuimber Exerts Over Humanity:
i ete {
Ask a man or women to mention a
number between one and ten, There
are at least three chances in five that
the response will be seven, although
it would not seem at first thought that
the ‘liabilities of that number being
chosen would be more than once in
eight times.
A Nevada City man who has inves‘tigated the subject declares seven to
be-a-charmed number. It ia the favorite with buyers of raftle tickets; it
is a sacred number with the Hebrews ;
sorcerers and magicians invest it with
impoftance; there are “the Seven
Sleepers,”’ ‘the Seven Sciences,” ‘‘the
Seven Wise Men,”’ ‘‘the Seven Stars,’’
‘the Seven Wonders of the, World,”
the seven-fold shield of Ajax, seven
days make a week. Says Milton, ‘‘Of
every, beagt, and bird, and insect
small, came sevens and pairs.”’ Seven is“ frequently tsed as a mystical
and a symbolical number in the Bible,
as-well:as among the principal nations
of antiquity._-The reason of its-preference for sacred use has been found
in its consisting of three (the number
cf the sides of a triangle) and four
(the sides of a square) these being the
simplest rectilineal figures, or in other
equally vague circumstances. The
reason, however seems to be thie observation of the seven planets and the
phases of the moon which changes
every seven days: In the Old Testament it is said the world was created
in-seven days, the seventh day being
kept sacred, Every seventh year was
sabbatical, and the seven times séventh yéar ushered in the Jobel-year,
The: pilgrim~ festivals (Passah, Festival of Weeks and Tabernacles) lasted
seven days; and between the first and
second of these feagts were counted
seven weeks.
seventh month was a ‘Holy Convocation.’ The levitical purifications lasted seven days, and the same space of
time was allotted to celebration of
weddings and mourning for the dead,
In the New Testament are the
churches, candlesticks, stars, trumpets, spirits, all to the number of
seven, and the seven horns and seven
ayes ofthe Lamb. _ =

The Story of an Awfal Leap—Georgia’s
“ Greatest Equestrian Feat, ~
It was in the sixties. Mitchell's bridge
across Mulberry creek was the tallest in
Harris county. A swell in the creek had
‘misplaced an arch anda dozen men had
assembled to repair the damage. The
flooring for twelve feet had been removed.
It was twenty-five feet. to the water
beneath.
men listened intently to the approaching
clatter of a horse's hoofs,
“Tt's Jess, by ganny,”’ said one, ~
‘He's splittin’ the. wind, too,” said
another.
“That little filly knows how to pick up
her feet, and she don’t study about it,
neither,” said number three,
“Dang my buttons!”
This. was said juet as the rider appeared
in sight, presenting a picture of robust
manhood, ‘guiding with unerring hand
the fleetest little mare in Western Georgia.
He was clad in a fine broadcloth suit,
his feet in a pair of the best calf-skin
boots, ahd they armed and-ornamented—
with neat, small’ shure. . ~
On he came. *
The mén were lost in admiration and
stoda with mouth and eyes open, transfixed to the spot,
He neared the bridge. "
Aa if by magicthe crowd were evakennd
to the ‘horrible death that awaited the.

bridge. ye
_ “Stop! stop!” shouted the men:
>The floors up! Zz
“You can't cross!’
The horse's héofs struck the bridge. °
“Head him off’
“He'll be killed!” &
“Stop his horse!”’
And they all rushed to the middle of the
bridge.
“Clear the track!’ whooped the impet-.

“He reached. the brink, The gallant
mare paused—trembled. . The men stood
breathless, The rider. planted himself
firmly in the saddle, gathered the reine
tighter and sank the spurs deep into the
sides of the mare,

With unslackening pace; and without a
