A CUrE Trick

By which "a millionaire Secured Posses
sion OF "A Valuable Salt Mine.
CANANDAIGUA, n. Y, December %
W. H. Smith, amillionaire mine operator,
has a claim against the Retsof Salt COmpa-
nv, Of York, Livingstone county, for two
days work as q common lsbOrer in the
company's salt mine at Sl.3O per day.
Smith applied for work at the Superin-
tendent's office the other day and was sent
down the shaft with the miners. He
worked two days, and on the morning OF
the third requested day of on account Of
sickness. Il was granted, and the miner
hired a RIG and took ride for his health to
the home Of farmer, s. H. Gray, who
owned land supposed to be rich in salt de-
posits.
He introduced himself to Mr.. Gray as an
emplove Of the RetsOf Mining Company,
and asked him what he would take for his
fOO-acre farm. Gray had been negotiating
with the RetsOf Company for some time,
and there had been o difference OF only
few dollars per acre between them. lie
had about made up his mind to complete
he deal before Smith arrived, so ne an
swered promptly, $4,000" Smith sc-
cepted the terms at once, and drew SlO,OO
from an inside pocket which he handed
over to bind the bargain. The deal com.
pleted Mr.. Smith returned to the mine and
resumed work. Daring the afternoon oi
the same day, when Mr.. Gray met the
Superintendent Of the Retsof mine, ne
said. "Well, I gave in at last and closed
with your man to-day for 5000 per acre. "
The superintendent soon found that no
officer OF the Retsof Company had done
any such thing, and lively Investigation
followed. All the men were called to-
gether, and Gray pointed out Smith as the
man who had bought the farm. When
asked who be bought the farm for, ne re-
pled that il was for himself he was
promptly discharged, and when be pre-
sented a bill for his two days work pay
ment was refused. Smith Is from Penn
sylvania, and is largely interested IN coal,
gas and oil lands Here it IS believed
that his scheme hes secured for him the
cream Of Western New York salt lands.

A GOVERNORS BANQUET
To he Given by the Business Mems Demo

To he Given by the Business Mems Demo-
cratic Association of New York.
New YORK, December 25.-The tickets
for the dinner which the Business Mems
Democratic Association will give to the
Democratic Governors elected at the last
elections, in celebration of Jackson Day,
January 8, have all been taken
before they were even printed. 1t Will
be held in the Hoffman House, and 1t
will cost S12 a ticket The special guests
will be Governors Boies, of Iowa; Camp
bell, of Ohio; Mckinney, Of Virginia; ABB
bet. of New Jersey, and Toole, of Mon-
tans. Ex-President Cleveland, Governor
Hill. congressman Mills, Carlisle and
Breckenridge have also been invited. There
is some little curiosity to see how far
Csmpbell. of Ohio, will pan out
under the electric light OF metropolitan
pOst-prandial investigation. The dinner
will be q sort Of parade Of the Presidential
racers in front OF the grand stand before
they are sent to the post to do the cutting
up'i that generally precedes a successful
start. In the now open wrangle between
the friends of the New York Demo
cratic rivals the conclusion IS often ex-
pressed that the nomination will 90 to the
West after all, and the party will refuse to
be again put in peril by New York's con-
tinual determination to fight over personal
issues. In this casa Gov. Campbell looms
up as a possibility. In this view he will
make his bow to a Jacksonian audi
ence on January s. Probably the Gov
ernor is mindful Of the situation and is
preparing himself accordingly. Perhaps,
too. he will be unavOidably prevented from
making his debut under such auspices.
Whether he will come or not, he will be
pleased to know how much expectation
sits in air" for his behalf.

The R.voIu,ionIsts of Brazil Met Decided

LONDON, December % -Dspatchei
from Rio De Janeirio have been received
in cipher from the newspaper Nocidddes
containing important and deeply interest
ing facts about the political upheval re-
ported there as having occurred on the
18Th inst. From tie information CON
tanned in the ciphers, it is undoubtedly
correct that the provisional government
found itself cOrnered by a very formidable
and active opposition, among the
members of which we're numbered
many soldiers, a good contingent of the
navy, backed up by several officers from
both branches of the service, while numer'
ous citizens also joined the revolt in favor
of the monarchy. These banded together
and parsded the principal streets, giving
full, aggressive show OF their sentiments,
and very serious fighting resulted. The
revolt was not suppressed until the morn
ing of the Doth inst when the regularly
organized troops oveIcame and dispersed
the monarchists The provisional author
tiles arrested quite number of leading
participants in the revolt.

IoHN NJ. wARD ENJOINED.

The League win Try to Keep Him Out OF
the Diamond Next Year.
NEW YORK, December 25.-The irjunc-
ton proceedings against John NJ. Ward by
the New York League club to restrain him
from playing with the Brotherhood were
begun last night when the papers in the
suit we're served upon Ward at his resi-
dence. The action is brought in the Su-
preme Court and the argument on it is set
for January next. The complaint,
which is made by the Metropolitan Exhi-
bition Company, sets forth the
value Of Wards services TO the New
York club and the contract with him,
which was approved by President Young,
of the League, and iu which his salary is
placed at $1,000, and then recites ths exc
cution by Ward of a supplemental con-
tract. The complaint specifically charges
that Ward himself wrote out the contract
with the reserve clause in it on which
the club now seeks to hold him. The com
plant next racites Wards announcement
that he will Join the Brotherhood and asks
that he be restrained from playing base bal!
or sbetting any exhibition or game OF base
ball during the season of 1890.

ARRESTED FOR TRESPASS.
Ospt. Conn, of the Steamer Fay g. in
Custody at Wellsburg.

Ospt. Conn, of the steamer Fay g., In
Custody at wellsburg.
Cap. O. II. Conn, of New Cumberland,
Of the steamer Fay s., of Wheeling, WAS
arrested by Sheriff Curtis, of Brooke coun-
ty, and placed in Jail at Wellsburg, yester-
day. The warrant was sworn out by Alex.
Coleman, of Steubenville, and the charge
WAS unlawful trespass in taking sand from
the Ohio river for Wheeling parties.
Capt. Conn says he is not guilty OF any
ofisnse; was working as an officer Of the
United States, and refused TO either give
bail or return on his own TecOgnizince, and
will not have "a hearing before this after
noon. 1t is likely heavy damage suit will
be the result, the Captain claiming he WAS
working far enough from the shore to be
beyond any private jurisdiction.
RCaptain Conn was in charge OF Captain
Shriveris sand boat, and it is supposed
here the arrest is the result Of the com
pleipts from river men, heard ever since
the sand-boats have been operating These
complaints have been by no means confined
to the river near this city, but have also
been heard at Pittsburg. where a number
of boats get up sand for the glass houses,
etc.
The river men do no complain OF the ac'
tual taking Of the sand, but OF the piles OF
gravel left by the boats. The natural
mixture of sand and gravel in the river
bed is hoisted on board the boat, and run
through the m ehinery, the sand being
separated and run through a chute, while
the gravel falls overheard. In the course
of day or two Of work a large pile OF
gravel, often projecting considerable
area above water, is left, aud it is Of these
artificial shoals that the river men COM
plain. Threats have been often made that
arrests would be made, and the matter
tested in the Courts, and 1t is supposed
the arrest of Captain Conn is move by
the river man 10 teat the matter.

MONTANA SITUATION.
THR COURTS HAYB HOLD OF THB INTER
BSTING SUBJECT.
Test Case Under Considsrahon-Ihs Vita Point
Involving the Validity Of the Sais Board
Certificates Will b Argued Saturday.
Silver Bow Judges Resign.

HELENA, MoST., December 25.-The
legislative case of Representative Roberts
was called in the district court yesterday.
W. F. Sanders appeared for Roberts and
Attorney General Haskell for the auditor.
The Attorney General claimed that Roberts
petition was insufficient in that it did not
set forth the fact OF his election or that
he was member of the House. Another
point made by the Attorney General
was that there was a question as to wheth-
er Roberts was a member Of the Legisla-
ture. Judge Hunt overruled the demur-
rer and decided the writ must be issued.
Haskell entered an exception, argument
on which will be heard Saturday. Then
the vital point OF the case, the validity of
Roberts State board certificates, will be
argued. Hamilton and Mediation, the
contestiug Judges in Silver Bow, placed
their designations in the Governors hands
to-day.

Faith In Santa Claus.


Faith in the Santa Claus myth hasn't
entirely faded ont of the Juvenile mind
though even the very youngest represent
atiyes of the present generation are apt to
be sceptical. The proof:
Little Bettina, three years old, has
rag doll with whom her relations are par
ticularly sympathetic. A morning oI
two ago this doll was discovered near the
fireplace in shocking condition; sbe wsl
black in the face, and in fact black al
over, and the smell Of SCOT about her wa'
