D FELLOWS.
Mr.. Sutherland's bill amending the
statute in regard to Odd Fellows, by max,
ing it applicable to all degrees of the or.
der, was read a third time and passed.
RECONSIDERATION.
On a reconsideration of Mr.. Van De.
vanter's bill repeating the law in regard
to the apportionment of railroad bond in,
dehtedness upon the formation of a new
county, the measure passed with but one
opposing vote. There was really no OPP
position to the bill in the first place. 1t
was voted down because the majority be-
lleyed that more time should have been
given 10 us consideration.
NO MOa PINKERTONs.
In its regular order Mr.. Suthcrland's
bill regulating the appointment of deputy
sherlffs and marshals in the territory was
passed. The measure provides that no
persons except qualified electors shall be
competent to act as peace officers upon
any occasion.
FALSE HOPES.
Notwithstanding the fact that the stock
committee recommended the passage of
Mr.. Rummel's bill repeating the law
authorizing the placing of a uniform val
uation on live stock, the measure was de-
feated in the house. Preceding the vote
which consigned the bill to the
waste basket remarks were made by
Messrs. Van Devanter, Adams and
Rummel. The former explained at some
length the circumstances which led to the
enactment of the measure. Prior to the
adoption cattlemen owning or ranging
stock near county boundaries allowed or
caused their property to be assessed in the
county which would place the lesser val
uation on their possessions. This action
on the part Of INSCRIPTIONS men had
given rise to many differences and much
high-priced litigation.
Mr.. Rummel, in supporting his meas
ure, pointed cut the injustice inflicted in
many cases by a uniform assessment.
Saddle horres were not so similar as peas,
and this assertion would apply to the 9TH
er classes of stock on which uniform val
uations were placed. So far as equity
was concerned it would be as well to place
the same price on all frame houses, with
another valuation for cdifces' constructed
Of brick.
Mr.. Adams thought that in view OF the
fact that the stockmenwere most interested
in the matter and did o object to the
workings Of the law, it 'should remain up
on the statute books. He did not know
of a single cattle owner who desired its
repeal.
After recommending the passage of
Mr.. Hooper's bill fixing ~peddlers licenses
and Mr.. Grants bill regulating interest,
the committee rose and reported and the
house adjourned.

A Bold Robbery,

When Mrs. Routhier came around
to open up her fruit stand yesterday
morning she discovered that the stand
had been broken into during the night,
few dollars ia small change taken
out of the money drawer, produce
scattered promiscouslv about tue floor,
and tobacco, fruits and other articles
taken away. Suspicion was at once
directed against fellow called" Tex, y
discharged soldier, who has been
cooking for CosgritiTs mess. This fel.
low WAS in Cusgrifi's saloon with a
soldier belonging 10 company A at
about . O'Clock q. IN. and bought
drinks which he paid for in small
cOin-fiys and ten-cent pieres-and
the last round OF drinks he bought he
fell short bit or two and offered u
plug Of tobacco for the Lalance, AT
the same time he and the soldier were
fessting on oranges and bananas and
having good time generally off the
stock stolen from Mrs. Routhier. Tex
was arrested by y sherltf's officer aud
putin Jail and If the soldier can be
Unidentified he aisu will he put in a
position TO explain his connection
with the affair. There seems to he DO
doubt Of Tex's guilt as there are wit
ne,ses to prove his possession Of the
money, tobacco and fruit. He will
probably lie bound over on the charge
of burglary.

prior to this there are altogether toe

At the Front.

The entertainment to be given at the
Rink tonight is one that should be
well patrnnized both on account OF its
intrinsic merit and the circumstances
under which it is given. Mr.. j. s.
Shepherd who gives the entertainment
is veteran OF the late war who is
most singularly afflicted. At the bat
tie of Cold Harbor In June 1864, after
his brigade had charged the confeder.
ates and been repulsed they were met
In their retreat by battery Of brass
guns and ordered to lie down while the
battery opened on the confederates TO
check their advance; for twenty min
utes this battery thundered and thun-
dered almost In their very ears, and
when the cannonade was over, Mr..
shepherd was deaf and has never since
recovered his hearing. He has been
married twelve years and never heard
the sound OF his wifss voice or that of
any Of his children, although he con.
verses readily with them by nuts
signs. He still retains the power of
speech though on account of not hav-
ing heard sound for quarter OF
century his language is quaint aud at
times unusual,
