A MUSHROOM CITY.
How the Town Of Guthrie, Oklahoma,
is Growing.

As time passes the interest in the new
Oklahoma town of Guthrie increases. The
town has passed beyond the experimental
stage and is now an assured success. The
din created by carpenters building Is said is
be something fearful and reminds a person
Of being in huge boiler factory. There
are now at least 5000 wooden buildings ir
course Of construction, and there will be
many more as soon as lumber can be obtain.
ed. 1t is safe to estimate that the town con
tains 5000 inhabitants, and these are ali
men, some Of whom are married and will
bring their families as soon as they are com
fortably fixed. The main street Of the towT
now has business houses for half mile run

the signs to be observed on the buildings

business, and Selling beer bottle he smashed
Pele in the face and threw him out Of the
shop.
Shortly after this happened Pete Kline
got into some difficulty in the same house
and received welt on the head that came
near dis6guring him for life. Pete was very
anxious to borrow a horse pistol or gat,ling
gun with which to blow the shebang inside

for an instrument OF warfare and concluded

Pete. The wood chopper, was around the
next day telling Of his fighting qualities.
Nobody seemed to pay much attention 10 his

A BULLY CASE.


A. ]. Newman, the Carson River ranchef;;
last Thursday had Chas. Thomas, Of Silver
City, arrested on a charge Of stealing bull
from band Of cattle owned by said Neuman.
Thomas had hearing before Justice Haw.
kins and was held in $500 bonds to sppeaf
trial to day. 1t seems that last Fall, when
the Newman Bros, were driving their cattle
from the hill to the ranch on the river, soms
Of them slrayed through Silver City, and the
four.year old bull in DISPUTE was captured by
Thomas and corraled. Thomas claimed that
he had raised The bull, and that it str4yed
away sometime in the Fall Of 1887, and that
he had not seen the animal from that time
until last Fall. He kept the animal, not.
wthstandng that Newman demanded its re.
.urn and showed the Newman brand on it,
and sometime during last Winter killed it, as
he had no further use for it. Mr.. Thomas
does not deny that the Newman brand; OF
some brand. was on the bull. not placed there
by himself, but thinks this brand was put on
after it had left his place in 1857. Mr.. New
man declares that the brand was put on the
animal while it was yet calf, as it had
grown 10 quite large size. 1t IS evidently
case OF mistaken identity. Mr.. Thomas IS
very sure the animal was his, and Mr.. Neu-
man is equally confident that he can prove
the bull belonged to his band of cattle.
inst as we 60 10 press it is learned that
he above case has been setted by ThomaS
paying $40 for the bull. and costs.

plainant and the estate of the late James
Baker, a former New York broker, resid-
ing at Jersey City, defendant. The suit
was to recover two $500 bonds of the city
of Paterson. Nos. 525 and 542. Thu bonds
were issued April /. 1866, add the com
plainant alleged were lost or stolen soon
after he purchased them.
The testimony of the complainant was
to the effect that he had learned from the
City Treasurer of Paterson in 1875 that
the coupons of the missing bonds were
being paid to Broker Baker, and that the
payment had been going on since 1866,
When he called upon Mr.. Baker II told
him his story, Mr.. Baker said that he
would hold the bonds and assist him in
catching the thief. In the meantime the
Paterson authorities paid him the value
of the ponds; he giving the city a bond OF
indemnity to secure it from being COM
PEELED to redeem them q second time. He
said that the bonds with thirty-eight
others had been purchased by him from
the late John Morrisey, of New York, who
was acting as his agent at that time.
An Injunction was granted in Deem
Der, 1882, to restrain Baker from dispos-
ing of the bonds, which he claims to have
purchased in a regular way, and Petry
now asks that the bonds be returned to
him in order that they may be cancelled
by the city and relieve him from the in
demnity bond.
Mr.. Petry's counsel was ex-senator
and S. @. Mount appeared for the
Baker estate. No decision was reached.
