"A lew defenders OF the capital plan
have gone so:far as to assert that the
commissioners and the members who
procured for them their places would
not make money out of it-that it was
entirely in the Interests of the people,
and the people alone. Upon that point
Hon. johnson Nickeus. who distinguish.
ed himself BY his ardent advocacy Of the
scheme said to reporter of the James.
town Alert:
"Of course no capital site was ever Sc.
!ected or q capital removed without af.
tordlng some lone an opportunity to
make something out lof it. 1t ls but
natural for man to act upon information,
and presume that the person or per.
sons who are so fortunate as to learn the
exact location of the capital, will make
some money, and so far as I am concern
ed | do not care if they do.''
1t is rather frank statement, from a
gentleman in position to know the in.
tentions- of the removers. Mr.. Nickeus
also states ia substance that the scheme
was not originated to make money fol
the promoters, but was spontaneous
and natural movement. While this may
be the fact concerning The part Mi
} Nickeus took III the affair, yet there il
great probability that before the matte
is settled Mr.. Nickeus will be proven t.
have been mistaken concerning the mo

favor that he took stand for capital re.

was authorized to draw some $4,000 or
$4,000 from the territorial treasury; his
subsequent organization of Douglas,
Hand and counties, in all of which the
rights and wishes of the people were
studiouslY dieregarded; and all his acts,
down to the appointment of his son to
the position of territorial auditor and
his espousal and advocacy of the infa-
mously corrupt capital removal scheme,
all stamp him as a bold and heartless
schemer and an enemy of the welfare of

London Newspaper Carts. \

A newspaper cart is q light affair on
two wheels naturally u cart cannot be
on four-with one reckless driver and \
man to deal out papers. They rush
along with All the headIong speed Of
the American butcher cart, and the
rivalry among them IS something Won
derful. OF COURSE the first paper on the
ground is the one that gets the cream Of
the trade. Probably the handsomest
carts are those of the Globe and the
Pal NAL Gazctte. The former has u
raised hemisphere on each side, typical
of the name; the latter's carts arc oak
colored, with the title of the paper on
each side and on the ends. The Echo
carts are ugly and very seryiceable.
Just before an edition comes out these
carts can be seen in row before their
respective printing offices, each paper
having about dozen. When the edi-
ton Is published the carts are filed in
u twinkling with the paper in quires-
twenty-six TO the quire-and small bum
dies wrapped up in contents bills. The
latest contents bills are pasted on the
backs of the carts and away they 20 as
speedily IS if one of Arabi's bombs fell
among them. They dash through Lon
don streets with the rollicky reckless
ness Of iire-engine, and soon scatter
10 all points OF the compass. The bum
dies are flung in ut the doors Of the
news agents rs the carts hurry by with
out stopping. At the street corners
they pause and the news-boys gather
around, handing in all the former edi-
tons that are unsold, together with
cash for as many more rs they wish to
buy. The papers are dealt with great
celebrity by the man in the cart, who has
trick of holding the sheets IN q pecu-
liar way in his left hand, while he runs
his right across the edges thus exposed.
counting them accurately with hespeed
of lightning The amount of cash, gen
orally rendered in pennies, seems 10 be
almost instinctively got at by netting
them in his hand. The round has to be
made within u certain time, and the
carts have to be back before the next
edition is due. and the cash and returns
handed m before another lot is brought
out. On the last round they collect the
cash and the returned papers from the
news agents.
The evening papers here are hardly
rs honest in the matter of numbering
their editions rs the American contem-
poraries No London evening paper
numbers an edition rs first for IN
stance, the Echo's first edition is called
the second, and is issued at l o'clock.
The next edition they call the fourth,
and is issued ut 2:2O. The fifth edition,
81 IL
at 40; the special edition at g. and the
extra special at 5. Some OF the evening
papers begin business with u third edi-
ton which the unsuspecting Brtisher
buys under the impression that he IS
getting something very late indeed. =

A Vininns Bird.

The Denver Nei0S says that Colonel
Wilson +. Sisty, Fish Commissioner of
Colorado, while visiting the state fish
hatchery, nine miles down the Platte.
observed a huge blue heron prcying up
on young fish in the boxes, Colonel
Sisty had frequently seen the bird en-
gagged in this before, but it had iuvari-
ably flown upon his approach. Yester-
day the heron, instead Of taking alarm,
appeared to become greatly enraged at
the Interruption, and, with outstretched
wings, rushed at Colonel Sisty. The
bird stood fully rs high rs Colonel Sisty,
who is slightly over five feet two inches
and was of great swftness of move
ment as well as considerable strength.
1t used its head and neck with light
ning-likc rapidity, striking steadily for
the Colouels face. He was unable to
moro than protect his eyes for some lit
tie time. so fierce was its attack and the
blows raincd upon his hands in protect
inc his face left them bleeding badly
His face was also cut in places. After
the first surprise Colonel Sisty prepared
TO assume the offensive. Protecting his
face with his hat he rushed in upon the
huge heron, and, Selling it by the body,
threw it to the ground Then kneeling
upon it, he claspcd it by the throat I'M
til life was extinct Colonel Sisty,
though suffering considerably from loss
of blood, managed to carry the bird to
his buggy, in which he brought it to
town. The body of the bird was last
evening turned over to taXidermist,
who win prepare it for exhibition at the
hatchery. Colonel Sisty's wounds were
dressed by DR. Lemen, who pronounced
them painful but not dangerous. Col
oncl Sisty is OF the opinion that the bird
must have It's nest in the vicinity of the
hatchery, and that the attack was made
in defense Of its young, as he never
knew bird of this kind before TO show

lasted but four minutes and twenty secondr
Science and the Qleensbury rules we're alike

times in the first reund, and stood up again,
when both clinched. The referee tried TO
separate them. Shouts of "foul" were
ra'sed, and the referee, pugilists and crowd
were all wrangling. Murray paid no attention
to anyone, out continued to pound Turnbull
until he fell bleeding, helpless and
battered in Murray's corner. He again got
on his iegs, and was fought down, when the
time-keeper called time, which he should
have done ninety seconds sooner. TurnbulL's
nose was either split or broken, his eyes
blsckened and lips bruised and protruded.
The second round was another brutal ex-
hibition' Turnbull ca ne to the scratch in a
