A strange pa tron is surprised to have his beer hand ed out in a tin cup. t "If you read the newspapers," Hook explains, 4,you must have observed that a large per cent, of the fights in bar-rooms originate over some imagi nary insult, which is resented with a blow with a beer glass, or a thrown beer glass, which inflicts a bad wound. You can't hurt anybody with a tin cup, McGaha Cases Concluded. At Brevard Thursday midnight the hearing in the cases involving the al leged defalcation of ex-Sheriff McGaha, which has been in progress before Re feree Robert L.Ryburn for nearly three weeks, was concluded by the argument of counsel" and the court adjourned. Judge Shuford, a M. Wells and J. D. Murphy returned here yesterday and Mr.. Ryburn went to his home in Shel by yesterday. There is one more case to be heard and that will be taken up in Asheville at a later date. It is the case of J. M. Thrash. against the other " sureties, a A. Keith, the Fidelity and Deposit comyany, and the U. S. Gua ranty company. It Involves very much the same state of affairs as the consoli dated case which were heard in Bre vard. It is alleged that there was a shortage in the accounts of Mr.McGaha while he wassheriff and tax collector, from 1893 to 1900, of about $7,000. Mr. Thrash paid part of this sum and is looking to the other sureties to reim burse him for their pro rata part of . this. " They defend in this and the oth er cases on the grounds that no short age is proven, that it was waived if there was one, and that Thrash was not obliged to pay this amount, and there tore they are not responsible to him. There Is not a movable piece of fur niture in the place chair, table, stove leg, or anything else that might be used as a weapon. 'If anyone is ever hurt in the Gun Club," says Hook, (,it will .be with weapons brought in, or with nature's own tools.

Kansas City Jou-naL Is Popel Leo In Purgatory ? said in his sermon last night that Pope Leo might be in purgatory and he asked his congregation to pray that tne Pontiff might be removed from there and take into; Paradise. This idea illus trates what may be termed the democracy of the Catholic faith, dosen't it? For twenty five years the Pope was nyested with divine prerogatives and in a spiritual and moral way wcj considered infallible. Yet he, may have to go through the process of purging before he wins his reward, aud the prayers ot ithosq living are expected to make matters e&g&r for the sanctified head of the Church Tb!e Protestant religion is not so .complex.
