THE COURTS.

Supreme Court, October Term, 1881.
John W. Pence. W. W. McNair, James
Bean and R. J. Baldwin, respondent, vs.. The
st. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Railroad
company, appellant.
Syllabus-By virtue Of section 4, chapter 81,
statute laws 1879, and section 1, chapter II
statute laws 1871, the Minneapolis & St. Louis
railway company has authority to make
valid leave to another railway company of this
state, of rights which it has acquired since
the passage of chapter II, by combination of
land, a lease of parcels of land drilling in pub
lie streets contaised no restriction as to the
use of the leased premises by the leasee or as 10
their authoity with reference thereto, exeep,
covenant not to sublet the premises or any
part thereof, without the written consent of
the lesee-a right to re-enter being reserved is
case of breach.
Held, That the fact that without OBJ
lection from the lesees and by their
tacit commission. railroad COM
pany is permitted to lay track aud run trains
over the adjacent half of the streets upon
which the leased premises abut, and that it is
expressly permitted by the lesees to lay track
and run trains across the leased premises (out-
side of the street), partly for the accommoda-
evidence of license only, and not of q sub
letting. It does not entItle the lessons to re-
enter under this lease. 1t does not show that
the railroad company is in possession, nor
that the lessons are entitled to possession, and,
therefore, the lessons cannot maintain eject
ment against the railroad company to recover
possession of the premises thus used by It,
The order denying new trial is reversed.

The sealssss Cap Larceny

The case of the State VS.. James DAILY,
charged with stealing sealskin cap from Full
Ter & Henderson's furnishing store about three
weeks ago, came up for hearing before
Judge Cooley, in the municipal court yester-
day afternoon. For the prosecution Mr..
Henderson and James Flynn and VIM. Walt
ers were sworn. Mr.. Henderson testified that
three young men called at his store and asked
to be shown some sealskin caps upon the day
the two laps were stolen, but he was unable
to identify the prisoner, as being one of the
parties.
Flynn and Walters, who are the two young
convicted and sentenced to term of ninety
days in the county jail, testified that DAILY
stole the capsand that they sold one while he
sold the other. The evidence of each conceded
exactly with that of the latter.
In defense, the defendant was sworn. He
testified of course that he knew nothing OF the
larceny, but being offered one of the caps if he
would sell the o her, he made the sale to Thos.
Murphy for S.. As soon as he ascertained
that the cap was really stolen property he had
promptly notified Murphy of the fact
That the other boys sold the other
remaining cap, thereby cheating him out of
his commission. He then went on and gave
the Young men, Flynn and Waters most IN
satory airing. But the latter, however, was
accepted with little credence, as he was evil
DENLY giving vent to his pent up spite.
In his finding Judge Cooley stated that of
the three he believed Daily the most guilty,
and imposed fine of SIS or ninety days. i'm
'prisonment. In default of the payment he
went to Jail.

THE HITCHCOCK LAMP.

Save Your Eyes-save Your Health-Save
Your Property-Save Your Lives.
By using the Hitchcock Lamp. 1t gives a
whittier, steadier light than gas or any other
known appliance for use of kerosine oil. Tits
a mechanical application of scientific princi-
pies.
1t emits none of the disagreeable and deter
ions odor unavoidable in any known facility
for illumination, and is. of power equivalent
to six-foot gas burner at one eighth the cost.
1t is non-explosive under any and all condl-
tons of use; AND, aside from its general utility,
is not only the safest and best, but most
economical lamp in use.
The Pullman and Wagner Car companies
have more than 900 of these lamps in use, and
in every instance of its adoption it has verified
all that is claimed for it.

DIRTY WGlRK.

The recent effort of the Stalwarts to
injure the late presidents premier by
sending out to the country colored and
false statements in regard to the South
American imbroglo, having failed to &C
complish the desired object, feeler, to
test the public pulse, was wired to a
morning paper of this city day or two
ago, breaking to the public the start
ling ~ information that ex-Secretary
Blame was intriguing to secure the
presidential nomination ON the Demo-
cratic ticket in 1854. 1t is exceedingly
humilitating to know that the execution
of this dirty, disreputable piece of parti-
san drudgery was assigned to St. Paul
journalist That newspaper protesting
to be in full sympathy with the reform
measures and policy of the dead presi-
dent, should be open to such a
disreputable engagement is as surpris-
ing as its acceptance Of the filthy
trust Is convincing, that "all these tears
over the reform of the civil service of
the government, had their source in the
absence~of an opportunity to benefit the

Gently developed in the person of the
now President, that were not so apparent
to the average reform Republican jour
nalist prior to the death of President
Garfield.
Mr.. Blaine, however, will survive this
unexpected assault from supposed re-
form friend. We do not feel called on to
fight his political battles, but natural
feeling for fair play urges us to place on
record the past hypocrisy of the Pioneer
Press, and to express the opinion, that
the friends of President Garfield, and
especially those of Mr.. Blaine, have every
reason to congratulate themselves that an
opportunity presented itself at this early
stage in the contest for this political Ju-
das Iscariot to reach for his thirty pieces
of silver. The good people of this vicin-
ity, however, never had greater cause to
return thanks to God since the fragments
of His inspired word were gathered to-
gether in the first century, than they now
have that brother-i in law stands be-
tween the base traitor and the coveted
thirty ducats labelled-the St. Paul Post

THE congressional subcommittee to
investigate John Sherman's corrupt ad
mlnistration of the treasury department
are conducting the investigation in star
chamber style. With Black Jack Logan
manipulating the movements of the
committee, the public need expect but
little from the work If the doors of the
committee room could only be thrown
open, and the evidence, as detailed before
the committee, given to the public, John
Sherman would be made to perpetrate a
lop-sided smile on short notice. Logan
should not be allowed to get corner on
Sherman's influence in the next national
Republican convention, in return for his
"good offices" in Sherman's interest dur
ing this investigation.

white washed Arthur's administration of
the New York custom house, and now
Arthur returns the kindness with interest
by making Mr. Howe cabinet officer.
President Arthur should remember, how
ever, that Notwithstanding the efforts of
his friend Howe, John Sherman bounced
him from Office just the same, and for
cause stated Arthur and Howe have
Sherman in close quarters just at present,
and were it not that Logan has corner

GUS Young Men.
An immense story was given limited
circulation yesterday, having to do with
the CONSERVATION created by the antics OF
bold burglar who invaded the sacred
precincts of young lady's apartment stu
ated in fashionable boarding establish
ment on Ninth street not far distant from
the corner of Wacouta street. Among
the select few who enjoy the hospitality
of the house, at the rate of dollar day
or so per capita, are three well known
young men whose surnames commence
with the letters A. Il. and j., and two
highly esteemed young ladies, one of
whom, and the heroine of the story, is an
accomplished singer in one OF the high
toned down town church choirs.
About 1890, yesterday morning the oc
cupants of the house were aroused from
their sweet slnmber by a piercing
shrek. which indicated that one of the
fair sex was in trouble of some kind, and
had given this peculiarly feminine alarm.
In less than a twinkling q half-dozen
doors creaked on their hinges, and as
many nightcapped heads peeped through
the opening, and the air was filled with
strange visions of alabaster limbs, and
long, flaming garments, the mystery OF
which not even reporter is allowed to
find out Our three heroes rushed down
stairs and wanted to know what on earth
was the matter. All the ladies, being up
in arms, so to speak. Then charming
little dove of woman explained that she
had been awakened by the entrance of
burglar, who got In by way of the window.
He was in the act of pulling out a bu-
reau drawer when it slipped and fell to
the floor with crash that awoke the
sleeper. Then she screamed when the
horrid man came up to her and ordered
her to keep quiet. Then she screamed
louder, and the midnight prowler de-
camped She was sure that he had not
escaped through the window and that he
was still IN the house. Then consulta.
ton of war was held. Our three heroes
armed themselves with pokers, boot
Jacks, bamboo walking canes and started
on the skirmish for him. Finally one of
young men came pell- mel down stairs.
he was sure that the prowler had been
locked in.
Another of the trio rushed out and
banged the lamppost for policeman.
The noise aroused neighbor, Mr.. U. Z,
who looked from his window and asked
what the fuss was about. Our hero eX-
planned and Mr. u asked them to hold
on minute, when he joined them with
his gun. He came and the procession
started for the closet. Then followed a
holy hush. The key was turned and to
their astonishment there, hanging mo-
tionless before them, was an endless var
iety of last summers clothes The burg
lar had of course skipped out the win
dow. Just the same though, the boys
had to set 'em up to avoid big laugh.
