One of the Parties Thinks He Ought to be
Arrested.
Yesterday party by the name of Ernst
FREEMAN cheerfully walked into police head
quarters. and asked if there was a warrant for
his arrest there. If SO, he was ready to meet
all the requirements of the law A look
among the records and files discovered no docu-
ment bearing his name. He was asked why
he expected such attention of the authorities,
and then told his story. He stated
that few days ago he'd made
horse trade, which was brought about in this
way: In his calling peddler he had need
OF horse, and about two weeks ago bought an
animal. sound in wind and limb, of Bill Webb
Inc points of the brute attracted the eye of
George Baker, second hand dealer, No. 60 Wa
bashaw street, who pestered him to trade. At
ter much persuasion he snapped his horse for
Bakers with boot to the amount of
$lO: The trade and transfer was made
Wednesday. That same night Baker came to
his, Freiman's house, No. lob West Sixth
street, and called him out. He commanded
FREEMAN to accompany him at once and pull
ed out revolver as a persuader. Freiman's
wife and some friends interfered, and Baker
departed. In a short time he returned, and
summoned FREEMAN to the kitchen
door. This time he had Freiman's
old horse with him, and wanted to re-swap as
it were. FREEMAN declined, and then Baker
broke open the stable door, took away the
horse formerly belonging to him, leaving the
one formerly belonging to FREEMAN. .,-As
If the story was true, it was explained to
FREEMAN that he was hardly subject for ar
rest. .s a. ~ 81 IS
But then," exclaimed he, 81 have repleyined
the horse, and Baker has sent him away"
1t was again intimated that this action on
his part didn't put him within the grab of the
law. He seemed hardly convinced, but as no
warrant could be found designating him as
disreputable John Doe, or any other man amen
able to the law, he got up and left. But after
all not in SO pleasant frame of mind as when
he entered.

Interesting Cases Before Judge Wilkin.
The Farrell-Iteardon Lumber Controver-
sy, ANA Gellatly VS.. The Odd Fellows'
Relief A ssociation.
The district court Judge Wilkin presiding.
had two important cases before it yesterday.
The first, hanging fire for two days, is entitled
NJ. B. Farrell VS.. Timothy Reardon. The suit
is brought to recover $4,000 damages for
alleged malicious prosecution. The history
OF the case is pretty we'll known. Last July
keardon had Farrell arrested on the charge
or larceny, complaining that he
had stolen quantity of lumber. Srbse-
quent!y Farrell was acquitted of the alleged Of
fence in the municipal court. The case on
trial IS resultant of the above.
CHARITY, GOOD PEOPLE, CHARITY!
The second case was entitled Ann Gellatly
VS.. the Minnesota Odd Fellows benevolent So
ciety. The suit was brought to recover
$l,ooO insurance money, claimed by
of her husband. The defendant set up the de-
Tense: that John T. Gellatly was not in good
standing at the time Of his death, having been
suspended for non-payment of dues. The
whole matter hinged on $l.50, which it was
contended that deceased had not paid into the
treasury OF this benepolent association at the
death of one Ross. At the time of the death
OF this member Gellatly had just returned
from Europe, whittier he had been for his
health. His widow claimed that when he left
he deposited S. to meet all dues, and it was
commended this covered all liabilities arising
during his absence, and even all such dues after
his return, only two weeks previous to his own
demise. The evidence for the plaintiff was
taken, when counsel for defendant moved to
dismiss the case. After a little discussion the
motion was granted, and the widow of de-
ceased member of the benevolent society was
deprived OF her claim by the oversight of
$3.50, not paid during the absence and fitness
of her husband

CITIL SERYIOE.
Gen. Andrews Contrasts This Country with
the Leading Nations.

UoAs AuuroW6 COutra6H6 IhlS Country with
the Leading Nations.
An interesting lecture was delivered by Gen.
O. O. Andrews, in Representative hall, at the
capital building, last night, on the subject of
Civil Service in the United States and other
countries" The speakers residence abroad as
minister t. Norway and Sweden, together with
his comprehensive knowledge IF the subject
drew together large audience, the lecture be-
ing received with marked attention.
Upon being introduced by the Hon. II. R,
Denny, the speaker said that in referring to
the civil service systems of different countries
it would not be in fault-fnding spirit. Flat
terry was the worst form in which to administer
a corrective. France at one time over
whelmed with this species of praise, and had
not been cured until the memorable event of
Sedan, since when her national prosperitv had
been unparalleled.
In order to show that civil service reform
was subject not recently taken up by him,
Gen. Andrews quoted from his report Of 1875
on the civil service of Sweden, as published by
our government, in which he expressed the be-
lief that the United States had much to gain
in prosperity at home and reputation abroad
by reform in its civil service. The statement
of EX-Secretary McCulloch was cited, that only
half the customs duties lawfully due were ac-
tually collected, and he argued that if the
service was taken out of politics and put on a
UuSluess lOoIluB, III WOulu auInlC OF great re-
duction in taxation.
The testimony of the superintendent of the
United States assay and United States treas
urer at New York, was quoted, showing that by
placing the civil service on a business basis,
the number and expense Of officials and en-
ployes might be reduced at least one-half If
acomplete system of reform could not be had,
the speaker was in favor of accepting such
measures could be obtained, providing the
system was more thoroughly legalized, and not
subjected to the will of the President The
principles advanced were that subordinate
officers and employees should be appointed with
out regard to party or politics, aud that after
appointment the officers should be excluded
from taking an active part in politics. The
speaker thought that rigid inquiry should be
instituted into the moral character of the ap-
pllcant, and an impartial test as to qualifca-
ton. He also thought that the system should
be such as to make it possible that the self
taught child of the hunblest laborer should
have as lair chance asS that of the mill
ionaire.
In referring to the civil servfse of Sweden.
attention was directed to an officeholder in the
city of Stockholm, who annually collected over
800, 1000, and received salary Amounting to
$500 per annum. 1t was the piggishness of the
system of rotation that led Senator Donolas tn

He Watched an Opportunity.

An instance of misplaced confidence came
to light last evening, which involves the flight
of a supposed friend, and the loss of valuable
watch and chain. The parties to the trans
action are named, respectively, Phillip La
Falle and Henry Madden, fellow, cigarmakers,
prominently known in connection with this
industry, by all the principal manufacturers in
the city. A few evenings since, La Falle was
approached by his pseudolfriend and oonfidante
and after considerable persuasion was induced
to intrust to Madden's keeping hunting-c
silver watch and gold chain, the former being
at the time under the influence of liquor. The
manner in which the transfer was made at
tracted the attention of several bystanders
who, knowing the intimacy between the two,
and observing La Falle's inebriated condition,
supposed that possession of the articles was
sought from the most laudable and disinter-
ested motives Subsequent developments, how
ever show that the self-imposed trust was most
shamefully betrayed, as the ungrateful mis.re-
ant had no sooner obtained possession of the
watch than he left the city, taking tie first
train for Chicago. The watch is valued at $40,
and no hopes are entertained of its recovery
