FEARS HIGHBINDER BULLETS.

LEE HIM LOCKED IN JAIL TOR

SAFETY.

He Is a Witness Against the Fong

Dnck Tong Slayers of

Horn Ah Gow.

Prom present indications the trouble

between the Chinese tongs, or gangs of

highbinders, is liable to break into act

ive fighting without a moment's warn

ing.

The Fong Duck Tongs are naturally

Solicitous of the eventual discharge of

their brethren, Long Yin Toy and Chin

Ah Gow, now held for the murder of

Horn Ah Gow, and while the Suey On

fang has so far succeeded in safely

Guarding Lee Him, the principal wit

ness for the prosecution, the latter is

by no means sure of his life.

Indeed, so precarious has Lee Him's

existence become—in his own mind, at

least—that he last evening told Captain

of Police Fisher that he was "muchee

•cared," and requested to be given a

cell in the city prison for protection.

Lee Him's request was granted, and

last night, at least, he slept safe from

Fong Duck Tong bullets.

Lee Him, it will be remembered, is

• Fong Duck renegade, and in testify

ing against one of his clansmen he laid

himself open to the severest punish

ment known to highbinders.

Chin Ah Gow, one of the men held

to answer to the charge of murdering

Horn Ah Gow, has a rather unsavory

rt-cord. About nine months ago an old

rancher who resided in Nevada Coun

ty, was robbed here by a Chinaman

who answered the description of Chin

Ah Gow. A warrant was sworn out

for Gow's arrest, but he had disap

peared and did not show up for six

months. When he finally did return

be was arrested on the robbery charge,

but as the Nevada County rancher

could not be found, the Chinaman was

"vagged" and driven out of town.

Officer J. A. Wilson, who returned on

Thursday from his vacation, immedi

ately recognized Gow as the man ar

rested for the robbery.

THE APOLOGY WAS ACCEPTED.

Broncho Bill Squared Himself for

Calling Ugly Joe a Bluffer.

One day when Broncho Bill had im

bibed a little too freely and remarked

to a crowd that Ugly Joe was a bluffer

and a coward of the worst sort, he was

almost immediately sobered by the fear

that ttoe man was sure to hear of his

remavkt and would shoot him on sight,

and after thinking the matter over he

saw that his only chance was to hunt

him up and apologize for his thought

less words.

"Pard," he said, as he came across

Joe in front of the Prairie saloon

picking his teeth with his bowie knife.

■ what would happen to the man who

called you a coward and a bluffer?"

• Wall " replied Joe, smiling wickedly,

"it seems to me that yer queshun ar*

mighty foouish, seem' as how ye ar*

acquainted with my ways."

'O-of course," went on Bill, winc

ing a bit. "Ye'd shoot him on sight,

wouldn't ye?'

"I sartinly would, ye fule, and ye

know it."

"B—but. pard," persisted Bill, forcing

i a smile on his anxious face, "s'posin'

the critter as said it war drunk at the

time and didn't mean it —what then?"

That wouldn't make any diff "

1 And say, Joe, old pard,' interrupted

the other, "s'posin' the man should

apologize to ye arter he'd sobered up?"

Wall," answered Joe, after a mo

! meint's thought, "that would depend a

| great deal on the sort o'apology he of

j fered, ye know."

"Exactly!" said Bill, heaving a sigh

(of relief and pulling a flask of whisky

: from his pocket. "And. as I'm the crit

j ter who called ye names, .let me offer

• ye an apology in the shape o' a bottle o'

the best pizen in the hull State o'

j Texas.'

And when Ugly Joe had accep'cJ the

! "apology" and sampled the same, he

; bowed to the apologizer and remarked:

"Bill, any time ye feel inclined te.

i bluff at me ye needn't be afeered to do

so, 'cause I wouldn't hurt a ha'r o' yer

head—that is, of course, if ye don't fur

j git to apologize fur it afterwards."—

A Question of Education.

I was sitting on a keg of nails in a

i West Virginia mountain store watch

ing a native dickering with the mer

chant over a trade of a basket of eggs

for a calico dress. After some time a

bargain was closed, the native walked

j out with the dress in a bundle under his

arm, and I followed him.

"It isn't any business of mine," I said,

"but I was watching that trade, and

was surprised to see you let the eggs

go for the dress."

"What fer?" he asked in astonish

! ment. as he mounted his horse.

"How many eggs did you have?"

"Basket full."

"How many dozen?"

"Dunno. Can't eoumt."

"That's where you miss the advanta

j ges of education. With knowledge you

might have got two dresses for those

eggs."

"But I don't want two dresses, mis

! ter." he argued.

"Perhaps not, but that was no reason

why you should have paid two prices

for one. The merchant got the advant

age of you because of his education. He

j knew what he was about."

He looked at me for a minute, as if he

felt real sorry for me. Then he grinned

j and pulled his horse over close to me.

i T reckon," he half whispered, casting

furtive glances toward the store, "his

education ain't so much more'n mine ez

you think It Is. He don't know how

many uv them aigs is spoiled, an' I do,"

and he rode away before I could argue

further. —Boston Herald.

"Will you have me for better or for

i worse?" he asked. "What a foolish

question, George," she answered. "How

{ can I tell whether it will be for better

!or for worse. We've just got to take

! chances. That's all" —Chicago Even-

Jones —How is it that you never 1 <uy

taken lessons? Miss Smith —Oh, yes:

But I've only so far learned enough

for conversational purposes.—Brooklyn

SACRAMENTO DAILY RECORD-UNION. SATURDAY. AUGUST 21, 1897.

THE OLD FLIM-FLAM RACKET.

IT WAS WORKED ON A. WALKE

YESTERDAY.

The Bunco Thief Was Followed

and Caught—Tried the Trick

on Others.

There is a pair of flim-fiamers in

town, but one of them is in jail.

Flim-iiaming is the art of getting

away with the money of a person who

makes change for a customer, or does

another a favor by changing a gold

piece.

A Walke, proprietor of the Washing

ton Market at 120S J street, is the only

known victim of the light-fingered

gentry, but that there are others there

is good reason to believe.

Last evening a young man entered

Walke's place of business and had him

change a $10 piece. This transaction

was square, but shortly afterward an

other—evidently his pal—appeared and

bought "> cents' worth of grapes, tender

ing a $10 gold piece. Walke handed

him a $5 piece and $4 93 in silver.

Then the customer discovered that

he had a quarter-dollar piece and asked

Walke to take his pay out of that and

return the $10. This Walke did. and

the customer laid down the $4 9i"> in

silver on the counter and walked out.

Walke supposed that the whole $9 95

was there, but on looking it over dis

covered that the $5 gold piece had dis

appeared simultaneously with the cus

tomer.

He hastened to the street, but the

fellow had vanished into and through

a neighlMJiing wood-yard. Walke, as

sisted by a "Record-Union" employe,

j wtnt in search of the nim-flamer and

soon got on his trail. They followed

j him down town and pointed him out

ito Officer Bagley, who shadowed him.

The man went into N. Zemansky's

store at Third and J streets and tried

the same trick on him. But he struck

the wrong man. Zemansky gave him

the desired change, but kept his hand

on it till the deal was settled.

From there the bunco man went to

Sam Ginsberg's store, and tried to get

two good half-dollars for a leaden one.

Ginsberg looked at the proffered dollar

and told him that kind of money wasn't

worth a nickel a bushel.

Then it was that Bagley swooped

down on the fellow and took him to

the police station. There he gave his

name as L. E. Reid, and said he was a

barber. He had about $20 in gold in

his pockets, and so far as appearances

went he looked like a gentleman.

He is evidently a very smooth and

successful operator, and Officer Bag

ley said last night he had found sev

eral places where bogus money had

been passed or tendered during the day.

No charge has yet been entered

against Reid. but it is likely that sev

eral will be, and that the Federal offi

cials will take charge of the prisoner.

Catholic Benevolent Union.

SCRANTON (Pa.). Aug. 20.—At yes

terday's session of thelrishCatholic Be

nevolent Union a resolution was adopt

ed extending sympathy to the strikers

in Western Pennsylvania. Judge H.

P. Smith of this city, one of the Su

perior Court Judges of the State, ad

dressed the convention. One of the

constitutional amendments adopted by

the convention provides for the estab

lishment of labor bureaus in connec

tion with the societies, to serve as a

medium for obtaining work for mem

bers out of employment.

Found Dead in Bed.

HUNTINGTON (Va.), Aug. 19.—Rev.

H. J. Houghton, for two years past

rector of St. James' Episcopal Church

here, and of the Episcopal Church of

Tyrone, Pa., was found dead in bed this

morning at his residence. Rev. Hough

ton was a native of Salt Lake City,

Utah.

No, He Was Not Mad.

"Great heavens!" exclaimed Mrs. Pur

lington, "Have you suddenly gone mad,

William? Why are you sitting on that

cake of ice?"

"I've just received an offer to go to the

Klondike, as chief engin-- r for the

North Star Mining Company." her hus

band replit d, "and I'm studying whether

to accept it or not."
