A New Game.

Cobwebs was the title of a novel
entertainment given by the ladies of
| the Central w. c.. T. q. recently in
Handkerchief Hall A cobweb party
| is new fad to the people of st. Louis,
and curiosity was the incentive which
moved a large crowd of young ladies
and gentlemen to visit Vandeventer
Hail.
Contrary to the majority of new
fads, cobwebs did not originate in the
classic city of Boston. But was con-
ceived in the cactus precincts of Tex
as, where the game is known by the
dignified title of 'Going to Jerusalem"
At first the young ladies were slow to
join in the game last night, but they
finally became deeply interested, and
before the entertainment had conclud-
ed a score of them had been induced
to enter the web by the cunning spid-
ers. The game is played in this way:
All join in ring with a blindfolded
gentleman in the center. He selects
young lady, who enters the ring, and
he tries to catch her, saving: ely, fly,
where art thou?" The lady replies:
'Here am |, and at the same time
she endeavors to keep out of his way.
The lady, in her efforts to elude the
spider, as the gentleman is called,
must not leave the ring An artificial
spider is suspended from the ceiling
by means of Il string and pulley, and
it is the duty of the gentleman, still
blindfolded, to drop the spider on the
lady's head. When the lady is caught
by the spider being dropped on ner
head, both parties are out of the game
They can look on, but are forbidden
from entering the game again during
the evening. Next lady enters the
ring and calls in gentleman, both
blindfolded as before, and the same
rules applies to the lady when she
plays spider as to the gentleman. The
gentleman who catches the lady in the
shortest time is the winner of the
evening, and is called the chief spider.
He is presented with crown of small
spiders. The lady longest being
caught is called the queen fly, and is
presented with wreath of butterflies.

The case Of A. w. Church vs.. the
city Of Miles City which has beeu de-
cided adversely to the city by the jury
involves a more important question
than the amount OF money in dispute
bet Seen the parties to the action. The
facts of the case are, that In a certain
cause, appealed from the city police
court TO the district court, three or
four witnesses were put under recog-
nizence TO appear at the March lSsS
term of the district court, there to test-
ify in the cause. On the fret or Sec
up1 day Of the term March 9Th or 6th)
the ,susa was gel for trial on the 9th,
and on the latter day il was tried and
disposed OF. The witnesses thereupon
presented sworn accounts 10 the city
council for eighteen or twenty days
attendance at court, covering all the
tIme from the first day OF court until
the Case was tried. a. three dollars a
day. On the advice OF the city attor-
ney the council dissllowed their claim
for witness fees on the dsvs interven-
ing between the day the docket wss
called aud the day the ease was tried,
and allowed the claimants for these
two days. The several claimants
t%hersupon assigned their claims TO A.
w. Church, who ia their interest and
mis- own, entered suit against the city
for the aggregate amount, which suit
has, as above stated, been decided In
his favor for the full amount claimed.
The grounds on which the city coun-
Gil disHllowed the claim was, that the
parties had full knowledge that their
attendance nj court would not be re-
quired on any day intervening be-
tween the opening Of court and the
day the case was set for trial and being
residents OF the city their ordinary
business affairs was not interfered
with by reason OF having t. remain
here until, or be here on the day of
trial. Ii the trial on Friday last the
ex-city attorney, the present city at
torney, and the clerk oftbe court, all
testified that on The irst or second day
OF court, the docket was called and
this ease set for trial on the 9th. OF
March, and this testimony was not
attacked or In any way controyerted.
The claimant going TO the jury on the
sworn statement Of himself and asso-
%ciates, Of daily attendance OF court
during the time claimed. The Court
In instructing the Jury, told them that

nIent had been made In open court

the days intervening between these
two dates. The only testimony as to
the announcement having been made
was the evidence of the three officials
above named; the matter was not re-
ferred TO on the journal OF the court,
as II has mt been the custom to enter
proceedings of this nature. The jury
must certainly have taken this oniis-
sion into account and given It undue
weight, TO have arrived ut the verdict

structions given by the Court. 1t APP
pears to have been a question Of law,
based on a question of fact, and the
fact having been established by the
uucontroverted testimony OF three
competent witnesses the law In the
case should have prevailed. As far Ms
the City is concerned, a new tIial will
be asked anu If not granted An appeal
will be taken TO the supreme court for,
aside from the trivial amount Involved
In this case, IL is desired to have the
question involved tested and a decision
reached. The county of Custer has
paid thousands of dollars 10 witness
fees on no more reasonable grounds
than those on which the claims of
Church ct al. IL based, and other coun-
ties have doubtless been as generous.
There has been, however, a very gen
ersl desire to have the question tested

the City of Miles City will in all prob.
ability he the test case.

Second. THE DAILY NEWS
Is an Independent, truth-telling newspaper.
The reader can count on one hand the known newspapers
whose statements in matters Of politics can always be accepted
as at least intentionally truthful, and commonly so in fact.
On the other hand, it is the al.but.universal rule to praise
ones party and candidate to the skies, and to cry down the
opposition party and its candidate to the verge of the d~isreputable.
So common have such silly and reprehensible methods in jour.
nalism become that they pass unnotced. and are accepted as a
matter of course-as an evil ~inseparable from practical politics.
But this is only another mistake Of the ~thoughtess. The Amen-
can people are intelligent enough, thoughtful enough, fair enough
to appreciate and endorse honest, tuth.teNing journalism-in
truth to preferit to the misleading, the truth dishonesty
Of the ~"organ."
The demand IS more and more for the fair, impartial, indie.
pendent newspaper which give the reader all tie nrps, and gives
1t absolutely free from the faint of partisan bias. This done, an
expression Of opinion, based upon facts, viii commend itself to
the thoughtful reader even when he may not find himself in
agreement with the conclusions deduced from the premises.
Disagreements are Of small moment if only confidence in honesty
Of purpose remains. With no mere political ambition to crafty,
no "ax to grind" the impartial and Independent newspaper may
truly be =" guide, philosopher and friend" to honest men holding
every shade Of political faith. And this is why The DAILY
NEWS has to-day a circulation Of over I" aLmillion-a.week."
