In the Ryan enthusiastically
Grind of the Courts.
Tn the case of John DOOley against
Dennis Ryan, wherein Judgment for
$4,000 has been ordered, MIR. Lusk,
counsel for the plaintiff, yesterday moved
that Judgment be entered instanter.
C. ID. O'Brien, the defendants lawyer,
asked for a stay of proceedings for
twenty days. Judge Kelly said that the
practice of granting stays was liable to
abuse, and in some cases works great
harm. In this case the court thought
stay should not be granted, and MI.
Lusk's motion was therefore allowed.

to Sell Farmers Paper.
Old Timer writes from st. Thomas,
OAK, as follows: 81 notice an article
in your paper signed by William Pitt
Murray, the erstwhlle city attorney of

chinery sharks, and various other spe-
cies of sharks said to be holding sway
in North Dakota. 1t seems that the
Hon. Pitt, once big gun in st. Paul,

take pleasure trip to the Pa
hours at DEVILS Lake, N. d., and in
thattime found out all about the sharks
OF which he writes, the needs of the
country. and the remedy for the shark
ish practices said to exist. 1t is too bad
that we have not more men of the Muir
ray stamp to visit this sect. on, their talk
about sharks is SO interesting. If a
man wants his own, there is always some
one who is not interested in the
country to the extent of a
dollar. who is willing and ready to cry.
SHARK, do not crowd the poor man,
Such a one it seems is Mr.. Murray. If
eifthinks Dakota such fine country
for iavestHtent and such an ardent SYM
pathlzer with tile oppressed farmer. let
him come ont here. and | will sell him
100000 worth of farmers notes for 30
cents on the dollar. How about sharks
now? L will sell him $4,000 worth
of farmers notes for IS cents Oh the
dollar, and if Mr.. MURRAY has any money
to go with his sympathy, here is his
chance. 1 can get MIN all the paper he
can buy at from 25 cents to 50 cents on
the dollar. Let some of our SYM
pathetic Eastern brothers come
out here and invest. Lots
of our business men will sell out for
half price, and be glad of the chance.
All this talk of Eastern capitalists is
sheer bosh. Let them come here for a
time and they will find they must shark
it or go out of business"

Reports ON the Finances and the Condition
of the City Schools.
At the meeting of the Central Board Of
Education last night Secretary Reisfar's re-
port for the year ending January 81, 1889,
showed the receipts of the board were 1882
500 16. Fifteen hundred dollars of this was
for the tuition of nonresident pupils; $345
169 26 was paid as salaries to day-teachers. and
S6.2S9 IS was paid to officers. Superintendent
Luckey reported 571 teachers employed in Feb
ruary. The total enrolment of pupils was
25,535. The Finance Committee reported ex-
penditures of SS5, ,781 20 during February.
June q was fixed as the date for holding the
commencement.
Mr.. Stauffer wanted the Normal School
building on Miller street sold and wing to the
High School erected for the normal depart
ment. He said the latter was nothing but a
great expense, as every person admits that it
is not in the proper location. Mr.. Buckley also
wanted the Normal School attached to the
High School building as it would save the ex-
pense of one principal and one janitor The
motion was defeated.
Mr.. Diehl, of the High School Visiting Com
mittee. created somewhat of a sensation by
saying that the school is in a very dirty condi
tion. The windows look as if they h .d,not been
cleaned since last summer, and dit pervaded
every corner in the building.

the High School Committee.

Chris Liebrum, farmer living near Nc

visit some friends living at Harmony, in
Butler county. He did not see them but OBJ
tanned some experience which will be very use,
full to him in the future. He was the victim OF
q confidence man, and very clever game al
though he only lost S32
Mr.. Liebrum purchased ticket for Harmony
at the P. & w. R. R. depot in Allegheny yester-
day afternoon and sat down to wait for the
train. While he was waiting a stranger entered
into conversation with him, and after talking
about the prospects of the crops for this season
learned that he was going to Harmony to see
some friends whose names were mentioned.
The stranger claimed to know these persons,
did not intend to go until the next day as ms
baggage was not ready. He thought however.
that if he could get company he might arrange
his affairs and go on. the same train Train
he would be delighted to have
company on the trip and asked the stranger to
try and fix things so that he could go on the
next train. The man left, and returned In a
seen an accomplice and fixed things" for he
asked the McKeesport farmer to accompany
him for short walk to the Adams Express
Company where he would pay the freight on
his goods and have them shipped.
The farmer agreed, and they left the depot
Before the pair had proceeded very far, Mr..
Liebrum was stopped by his companions, who
responded to a call of Hello. Scott" When
the man who hailed him caught up to the pair.
he said, ''Mr. Scott, you need not trouble your
self any further about your goods as they will
be shipped on the next train. There are SS2
charges on them, which must be paid at once"
Scott as the fellow was called, promptly pro-
duced 500 bill with which to pay the amount.
but the pseudo express agent, as he afterward
proved to be, was unable to change it. Mr..
Scott then turned to his newly made friend and
asked for a loan of the amount needed. The
loan was given. and "Scott" said he would re-
turn it as soon as he reached the depot and got
his big bill changed. When they arrived at the
depot ''Scott" told Mr. Liebrum to go into the
train and "hold a seat for him until he got his
ticket"
Mr.. Liebrum held the seat until the train
pulled out, when he realized the fact that he
had been victimized and promptly jumped off
the train. He did not,visit his friends at Har-
mony yesterday, but told the Chief of Police
all about it and gave description of the men.
The Allegheny authorities are now looking for
them.
