lAEY THREW up THE SPONGE
A Disastrous Day for the Trie Of
Swindlers Known to Butte as
ssThe Tea Fakirs."
How They Sneaked Away From the
City and We're Arrested
at Dillon. ,
Charges of Perjury and Fraud-They
are Wanted by the Sheriff Of
Portland. Oregon. s.

Yesterday was a disastrous day for the
trio Of miserable swindlers known to Butte
AZ the tea fakirs." Their cases OF libel
and attempted extortion against five at
taches of this paper were continued till
Thursday by Judge Mediation, despite
their vigorous protest. and they silently
sneaked out OF the city on the evening
train for the South, leaving their store and
Ali it's cheapstock and fixtures o be attached
by their attorney, whose fees they wilfully
neglected to pay before leaving. They de-
parted to escape arrest on civil charges OF
SANDER filed against them in the District
Court. but two of them were captured 1T
Dillon and the third fellow was nailed
at Spring Hill. In the possession OF
Pickert, the leader of the gang, was
found a telegram from Portland,
Oregon, dated yesterday, informing
him that three indictments had
teen found against his two companions
and himself-evidently for s%windling. The
three ''fakirs" will be brought back to
Butte to-day. A detailed account OF
yesterdays incidents ia connection with
their case is given below. 1t is interesting
reading.

At 2:45 o'clock yesterday afternoon the
case of Tea Fakir" Pickert VS.. C. o.
Z~iegenfuss, j. c. Crawford. Phil. Julien,
". p. Schusslar and Moritz Koch, charging
the defendants with malicious libel and
with attempting to extort money from
plaintiff under threat, was called before
Justice Notation. Messrs. Pemberton
and Walsh appeared for the prosecution,
and tine defense was conducted by Mr..
Spser. All the defendants were present,
and "Fakirs" Jeffries and Lewis eagerly
watched the progress OF the case. The
prosecution had summoned eight witnesses,
and the defense not one.
THE DEFENSE.
In the extortion and conspiracy ca e the
defense asked to nave withdrawn the plea
OF not guilty which had been entered. The
request was granted, and Mr.. Speer then
filed the following demurrer, which was not
argued:
FirSt-That more han one offense is
stated or attempted to be stated in said
complaint-that Of conspiracy and threat
ening.
Second-The alleged acts constituting
said Offense are stated in an ambiguous and
uncertain manner.
Wird-That the facts stated do not con.
stitute a public offense.
IN THE l.IBEL CASE
the defense made a motion and filed an a fl
'iavit for IA continuance till s p. m. to-mor-
row. The affidavit was sworn to by James
C.. Crawford, and stated that himself and
the other defendants had no opportunity
to consult their attorney or otherwise pre- /
pare for trial, owing to the fact that they
were not arrested until late in the after |
moor OF the previous day and were com
PEELED to york all night preparing The
MINER for publication. The pr osecution
s%tubbornly contested the motion, but it
was allowed and the case was continued. |
The parties then left the courtroom.

Congressman and other officials now

in receiving the guests, and Mr.. George

seemed to be as old as he looks to-day.
Prominent among the ladies, on au ele-
waited platform at the end of the hall,
were Mrs. Madison, the widow Of
Trainer of the Constitution and an ex-
President, and the venerable widow Of
Alexander Hamilton, then upward OF

Nearly every one who figured in the

there were some in fancy costumes who

Barton Key, that gallant gentleman,

lIeeplns WIN tho Head Low.

tsitGiCtl lVthlAsl
Few persons, We suppose, sleep with.
ont pillow or rest of some sor. to
elevate he head & lttle above the level
Of the body, and very few, if any,
would think Of hAbitnally going to rest
with the feet raised higher than the
head. Yet, if We are to believe
writer Of an article in Phuger's Archio,
Nos. 7 aud s, 1886, the latter is the
only rational and proper position during
sleep. DR.. Meuli-Hilty is the advocate
Of this plan. He was engaged in
studying the physiological effects Of
such . reversal Of the normal
position Of the body, and found, among
other results, that the circumference Of
the neck was increased nearly two
inches by reason, chiefly, Of swelling
Of tho thyroid gland. He frequently
fell asleep while in this position aud
occupied in bis studies, aud found that
be always awoke earlier in the morn
ing, felt greatly refreshed, and was ca
pable ofmuch better work during the
day than after . nights rest taken
in the usual way. He has now
slept with his feet higher than
bis head for the past four years,
and his experience leads him
TO commend the method most highly.
He says in this way the brain receives
a more plentiful blood-supply, and is
consequently better nourished, while
there is no danger Of so much blood
passing to the cerebral structure as to
cause congestion. This danger is oh
Waited by the enlargement Of the
thyroid gland. which holds back cer-
tain portion Of the blood in its dilated
vessels, aud which also acts As q regu-
lator of the cerebral circulatios
by exerting pressure upon the
csrotids, and thus diminishing their
calibre. Another advantage which Or.
Meuli- Hilty claims for his method is
that it is prophylsctic against pulmo-
nary phthisis. The apices Of the lungs
being dependent, receive q more plenti-
ful blood supply, and are thus rendered
stronger and less liable to become the
point Of origin Of tuberculsr disease.
The writer's assertions may he correct.
and bis methsd may, a. he claims, be
the only rational ono. but 1t Is likely TO
be long time before he can induce
mspkind to regard pillows as useless
srd harmful part OF the bed furniture.

A foreign commercial paper is au-
thoIity for the statement that q steam
ship company has paid during the past
summer two cents per bushel for the
privilege Of carrying wheat in bags
from Baltimore to Liverpool. A Glas-
gov paper states that Scotch granite is
now sent from that city to London by
the way of New York. 1t is presumed
that both the wheat and granite are
used as ballast. A paper devoted 10
sheep husbandry states that the wool
raised in Southern Australis was
taken from Adelaide to San Fran
cisco, by steamer, carried to New
York by rail, reshipped, and laid
down in London fer less sum than
wool was carried from New Mexico to
PHILADELPHIA. The sheep-raisers Of
Utah, unable to obtain reasonable rates
for sending their wool to eastern mar.
kets, paid the local rates on it from
Ogden to San Francisco, and then sent
it to New York. BY having it in San
Francisco they were able TO take ad-
vantage Of the rates made in order to
secure the transportation Of wool pro-
duced in Australia and New Zealand.
The Vermont butter-makers complain
that they are being ruined by the
cheap rates made by railway compa-
MES to secure the carrying of Iowa
dairy products. They state that
butter is carried from Des Monies to
Boston cheaper than from Montpelier
to Boston. At recent meeting of
the Northwestern Dairymen's Associa-
ton the proprietor Of . Wisconsin
cheese-factory stated that he could send
his products to Liverpool by the way OF
Quebec cheaper than he could get them
transported to st. Paul. 1t ia reported
that salmon canned at tho mouth Of the
Columbia river is carried to England for
half the sum demanded for taking it to
the eastern portion of the State Of Ore
gon. Farmers living less than hun
bred miles east of London complain
that it costs moro to send their wheat
to that city than 1t does to send
it to America. An adsge that
has lived through the centuries,
probably on account Of its apps-
rent absurdity, informs US that
",he longest way round Is the nearest
way home" If the longest way Ia not
the nearest one, it may be, and often
is, the cheapest ont. During the past
season Chicago and Milwaukee brewers
have been using largo quantities Of bar
ley raised in California and Utah.
With two railroads having no very
large amount Of freight to transport, IL
would DO reasonable to suppose that
II would be brought by cars. But
very large proportion Of II has been
brought by water. IL VAS taken

proval plan which proposes the forma-
ton Of Boards Of Promotion in each De-
partmsnt in Washington, to be assisted
by an auxiliary number from each
bureau, to whom applications and can
didstes for promotion are to be pre-
scented. Applicants are to be subjected
TO practical examinations, and are to be
rated and marked after examination and
certified for promotion four at time,
lust as candidates who are successful in
the primary examinations before the
Commission. The heads Of bureaus or
divisions are to have the privilege Of
marking the papers Of candidates as to
efficiency. The proposition will be
made to have q board Of one member
from each Department to be constantly
employed in marking papers. some Of
which q year old and not yet marked
I'D, are in the Office Of the commission
ers. 1t is in contemplation to have
this proposed board mark all papers,
not only for tho Department, but for
the customs and postal service, SO as to
insure perfect impartiality by having
them judged by absolute strangers
and persons who will soon be-
come experts in discriminating
between papers. The chief exam
iaer under tho commission must,
as matter of course, be man Of
broad culture, capable Of framing suit
able questions for candidates for office,
and to correct op appeal possibly mis-
taken or unjust marking made by sub
ordinate examiners. Mr.. Webster's
superior qualifications in these respects
ard others Of inferior Importance 10
them, are reasons given for his appoint
meut. notwithstanding the fact that be
was a Republican when President
Cleveland gave him his present posi-
tion.
william Holcomb Webster WAS born
al Burlington, CT, January "a, 1899.
Ho was graduated 3. 4. at Trinity
College, Hartford, as member of the
class of 1862. Two years later ne re-
ceiyed the degree Of NJ. A. at the same
institution. In 1871 he was graduated
from Columbian College, Washington,
D. O., where be had studied law.
Shortly after leaving Trinity College
in June, 1862, he was commissioned
second lieutenant in a regiment Of Con.
pecticut volunteers, from which he was
discharged on account of physical disa-
bllity in April Of the next year when
his rank was that of first lieutenant.
During eight months Of the year 1868
be was employed in the Office Of the
provost marshal, First district of Con-
necticut. He was appointed second
lieutenant, Volunteer Reserve corps, in
January, 1864. When mustered out
in November, 1868, he was first lieu
tenant in the Volunteer Reserve
corps, detached. At the close Of
the war Lieutenant Webster was on
duty in Louisiana, where he had charge
Of different sub-districts of the Freed
mans Bureau. From June, 1869, to
the time of his present appointm he
held office in the Pension Office at
Washington. Beginning With clerk
ship at that date, his responsibilities
we're enlarged from time to time, and
bis "record" shows him to have been
chief Of division of the Pension Office,
for nine years as chief Of the old war
and navy division. Mr. Webster was
one of the compilers Of the Digest Of
Pension Laws, Decisions, ETC., issued
in 1885.
