and remarked that he had been robbed of
about $40, and that he couldn't say who did
it. He was paid off Monday morning, re-
ceiving $77, and started for Belisle saloon

depot He fell in with several strangers and
took three glasses of beer.
Yesterday morning he woke up in the
bushes on Douglas Bluff. He remembers
nothing of what took place after taking the
drinks, and he thinks that the beer was
drugged. He also believes that he was de-
coyed from the saloon. held up and robbed,
and then put in the bushes. The police are
trying to identify the thieves.

State of Minnesota, county OF Ramsey, s.
J. w. McClung, being duly sworn. deposes and
states that sometime in the fall of 1876, while
Lee Davis was running as the regular Demo-
cratic candidate for auditor of Ramsey county,
aud Joseph /. Beaumont as an independent can
didate, was informed by Robert A. Smith
ESQ.,. an intimate and confidential friend of
Lee Davis, that Beaumont was willing to de-
cline and give clear track to Mr.. Davis, if
Davis would agree to vote for him for county
assessor in the spring of 1877. And on inquir-
ing of Mr.. Smith whether Davis had agreed to
do so, he replied that he had not answered
him, or he did not know, or words to that
effect. This conversation took place on the
sidewalk on Wabashaw street, fronting the
court house square, and my recollection of it
is clear and distinct, though I cannot under
take to give Mr.. Smiths exact language. Com
ing SO direct from friend Of Mr.. Davis con-
sidered it as equivalent to an admission of the
facts by MIR. Davis himself, and have SO be-
lieved it ever since. J. w. MCCLUNa.

HEAR YE, HEAR YE.

Opening Proceedings of the October Term
of the District Court-CiviI Cases Set for
Hearing-The Grand Jury and Charge Of
Judge Brill.
"Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye," sang out in
brisk tones the baliff of the district court
yesterday morning, and as he brought down
the gavel the district court of Ramsey county
was declared open for business. His honor,
Judge Brill, occupied the bench. and there
were present many of the familiar lights of
the st. Paul bar. It were pleasing task to
sketch the personnel of these eminent gen.
tlemen, many of whom have gained front
place in the ranks of those distinguished for
their polished wisdom and penetration in
the various branches of jurisprudence. But
time and space forbids. Suffice it that they
were there in numbers, intellectual gladia-
tors, grit for the combat and coming fray.
Clerk Kiefer proceeded to call the names
of the gentlemen who are to constitute the
grand jury. The first few names of the in
quisitors were responded to, I'M proprSa
Dersonae, promptly. Then there was a
hitch as all the jurors were not present. Fin
ally bare quorum was had and then came
the fun. The court declared himself ready
to hear the excuses of those who had reasons
to give, unless they should not serve. The
grand jury rose almost to man. Several
excuses were heard and no decision was Civ
en-. The court directed venire to issue for
five additional jurymen, when those present
were excused until P. M.
After the grand jury was excused the civil
calendar, which comprises 155 cases, was
called, and cases set for hearing as fol-
lows:
Oct. 4, Nos. A, 80; Oct. s. No. "a; Oct. G.,

line, which is only thirty-eight miles
from Maryville, and that 1t will be
done Just as soon as he can arrange
to get the road built through North
Carolina. The road leaves Maryville
and after crossing the Tennessee line,
strikes the Little Tennessee River and
runs up this valley through North
Carolina to Rabun Gap, distance OF
only seventy miles. From there to the
AIRLINE is only thirty-slx miller.
The State of North Carolina has, by
its Legislature, given to the line a
certain number Of convicts to build
the road, and are willing to increase
the number, and company Is now
being organized TO push this line
through. ....... '....
The people Of South Carolina, and
especially Charleston, have been ex.
ceedingly active lately on the exten.
sion Of the Blue Ridge Road. This is
an unfinished road that connects with
the Greeneville and Columbia Road at
Anderson, aud is built from here to
Walhalla, South Carolina, crossing
the Air Line at Seneca. 1t Is the pur-
pose, as we understand II, to push this
extension through to Rabun Gap. but
to do so, three tunnels will have to be
built between Wallhalla and Clay
ton, a distance Of not more
than twenty miles. 1t Ia time that
the work on two OF the tunnels is con-
siderably advanced, but we learn from
good railroad authority that 1t will
take as much to build the road from
Walhalla to Clayton as 1t will to build
It from Clayton to Msryville, Tenn.
The Charleston people, however, have
an easy way out OF this difficulty.
They can either use the Spartanburg
and Asheville and connect with
Knoxville by Wolf Creek, or they can
come down the Air Line from Seneca
City to Mt. Airy or Toccoa, and then
join with Mr.. Hood aud the North
Carolina Company to build the new
route to Maryville. This is the object
OF Mr.. Hoods visit to Georgia and
South Carolina. iH

ATLANTA Constitutional

Atlanta Constitution.
When few months since q news
paper man announced that Atlanta
was seventy.nine miles further west
than Detroit, Michigan, many people
consulted their maps before they would
believe it. Yet it Is true. If you. ask
a citizen of Atlanta what direction
Knoxville is from Atlanta, nine out of
ten would say it was northwest. 1t is
directly northeast, and as the crow
flies is only one hundred and fifty
miles. We reach Knoxville now by
going two hundred and twelve miles
over two good railroads.
The recent railroad stir has brought
to the surface another route from Att
lanla to Rockville via Rabun Gap,
that will be oRly about fifteen miles
further than the present route, and
this line Is becoming active, and has
more life in 1t than we had any idea
