were granted continuance till tomorrow.
Hugh O'Brien pleaded guilty of being drunk
and was discharged, it being his first offense.
All ing and All You, for being engaged in a
small Chinese war; were discharged, by rea-
son OF the testimony being SO badly mixed
that it mixed the Court, City Attorney and
all concerned, and though hatchets, knives
and red pepper had been freely used, no one
could tell who used them, either by the evil
dence or appearance of the parties, as no one
seemed to have been injured. Gus. Parker,
for being a vagrant of the same class as that
tried by jury the day previous, did not seem
disposed to chance jury trial after former
verdict, and pleaded guilty, waived time and
took judgment, which was thirty days in the
County Jail. Thomas DAILY, drunk, guilty
and fined 81 so.
REARRANGEMENT. Secretary of State Burns
is having the public business-room of his
office in the State Capitol rearranged. The
entrance door heretofore i'll use is to be closed
and the public entrance will be by the door
next north In front of this door q space
some twelve by fifteen feet has been inclosed
by black walnut railing with counter top.
Here those having business with the office
will transact it unless invited into the space
beyond the railing, where the clerks desks
are. the object being to prevent interference
with the clerks and their work and to afford
as little opportunity as possible for Longing
and waste OF time in gossip. The safe has
been moved to the northeast corner OF the
room, next to the vault, and the clerks desks
all consolidated on the north side OF the
room. Where the safe stood formerly, in
the southwest corner, the bookkeepers desk
has been placed and next to it the desk OF
the Deputy Secretary Of State. This ar
raneement scarcely lessons the working
space in the room, and will enable the at
taches OF the Office to transact the public
business in more orderly manner and will
prevent any one, not authorized, from going
to the desks or handling documents thereon.
CHINESE THEATER CAsEs-In the Police
Court yesterday the Chinese theater cases
for maintaining a nuisance by disturbing the
quiet of the neighborhool came up for argu-
ment upon q question of law raised By de-
murrer of defendants, to the effect that the
company having obtained the necessary
licenses for State, county and city, such
licenses amount to a contract giving them
the privilege aud protection OF the autnorl-
ties Of. the city for carrying on the theater In
their own manner, and that the way CHI
nese theater IS conducted was known at the
-t7rb laauEaa crrNDtpfS The de-
murrer was argued by Henry Edgerton on
the part Of the defendants, and w. a. An
derson for the people, and was overruied.
The defendants demanded jury and the case
Is set for trial tomorrow. Grove J.. John
son has been employed as special counsel by
the complaining witnesses to assist in the
prose cution, who say they are determined to
rid Third street Of this all-night din, if It's in
the power of the law to do SO.
DEPARTURES. Several wards of the ma
ton, native sons and their mahalas, occl
pied reserved seats on the platforms OF the
Eastern overland baggage cars yesterday, and
seemed as happy as rabbits in clover as they
sat waiting for the train to start, and casting
Digger. Flathead and Ghoctaw smiles at each
other through their uncombed bangs and
the brake.irons. 1t was not propjtous
time, however, to sustain the poetic gush so
generously layished over the crushing sweet
ness and charms of the dusky maidens, and
probably such q time for observation will
never come to We, palefaces. except through
the dreams OF long haired poets,

eight months since for erection by the Cen

next rainy season sets in. The plans have
all been drawn, aud most OF the patterns FOR
