INVOLVED IN MYSTERY
An Alleged Burglary which Requires
Explanation.

The burglar who slipped into the resi-
dence of j. B. Harris about O'Clock yes
terday morning and stole that gentle
mans pants, with 80 IS in the pockets,
was doubtless surprised last night on
reading in the Bee that his victim was
newspaper man.
This is on the supposition that burg
larry was committed; but there are two
alleged facts which require to be ex-
planned before the public viii believe that
there was really one.
The published item states that the vic
tim found his trousers in an alley yester-
day morning. This would imply because
he is modest young mani that he must
have owned an extra para luxury that
men in his profession so rarely enjoy as
to warrant the belief that there must be q
mistake somewhere.
Again, who ever heard of a newspaper
man having so much wealth lying about
the folds of his garments?
Evidently the genial reporter has had a
dream, and that the temporary possession
of nine dollars and six bits was but
Heeting fancy of his brain

A Smooth Swindler From Marysyille
Comes to Grief Here.
A bogus check operator was neatly
caught in this city yesterday. He wanted
Cashier Abbott of the California State
Bank to honor a check for him on the
Rideout Bank at Marysville. He said
his name was L. D. Moore, and that he
was just from that city, whence he had
come to purchase some horses for his
brother, who he said was stage proprie-
tor.
Abbott got him to wait moment, and
then telephoned to the Rideout Bank at
Marysville to know if Moore was solid
with it.
The answer he got caused him to ring
up the police station and call couple of
police officers. 1t was to the effect that
Moore was wanted in Marysville for pass
ing bogus checks.
Before officers Simmons and Wilson
arrived at the bank, Moore walked out,
but Abbott had him followed up, and he
was easily arrested. When taken to the
station forged check on Rideout's Bank
in Marysville for 81, 700, signed ''Rideout,
Teller,' was found in his pockel.

animation he was withdrawn from the
stand in order that n. b. Lazard of San
Francisco. who was in a hurry to get
nome. might give his testimony. This
,rontlaman's testimony, however did not
amount to very much. He had known

The Agricultural College.

In the beneicence of our govern.
ment it has seen fit to donate a sum
OF money for the establishment of an
agricultural and mechanical college
IN each State that may be admitted
alter the passage Of certain bills. To
present the matter in full we will
quote the several acts as they were
conveyed to Hon. Fred T. Dubois bv
the Department Of Agriculture. His
attention was called to three acts of
Congress. The first act, approved
July 2, 1862, grants each State for an
endowment of an agricultural college
and mechanical college, an amount
of public land equal to 10000 acres
for each Senator and Representative
in Congress to which each State is
entitled The second is the Hatch
act of 1887, which grants each State
and Territory $4,000 per annum for
the maintenance under the direction
of the college or colleges established
within the provisions Of the act. The
Third is the Morrell act of 1890,
which appropriates TO each State and
Territory for the more complete en-
dowment and maintenance of col
leges for the benefit of agricultural
and mechanical arts, now established,
or which may be established hereaf-
ter, with the act of 1852, the sum of
$4,000, for the year ending July
Both, 1890, and provides for an an
nual increase Of the amount for ten
years by an additional $1,000 until
the annual grant shall be $4,000.
A bill for the establishment of the
agricultural college has been intro
duced. A commission of three per-
sons is to be appointed by the Gov
ernor to select the site, the commits
sion being given sixty days to make
the selection aud report to the Gov
ernor, who shall, by proclamation,
announce the site chosen as the legal
site for the college.

WASHINGTON, Jan l0.-The protest of
twenty-three mem bers of the Idaho Legis-
lature was laid before she Senate this
morning, and referred to the Committee
on Privileges and elections. 1t protests
against the seating of Senator-elect Du-
bois on the grounds of irregularlty IN his
election. As the credentials Of senator
Dubois are on file and will not be consld-
cred until the next session, the protest will
not be acted on before next December. A
large majority OF the Republican Senators
are satisfied that the protest is not well
founded,
Senator Dubois declines to be inter
viewed upon his probable course. 1t is
certain that he will be guided 10y the ad-
vice of the best constitutional lawyers
here and will be pertecsly sure OF his posi-
ton before he takes 1t.
Senator Shoup said this evening that IN
his Judgment Dubois election was within
the requirements of the law, but that he
would be more prepared TO give an opin
ion upon the protest after reading 1t II
print.

Gum has introduced bill in the
Senate to regulate the irrigation of
lands in the State and for the better
protection of actual settlers and prior
appropriations of water, and provid-
ing for the election of officers for
carrying the act into effect. The bill
provides for State Engineer, who
shall be elected by the people. He

ions over which shall be Superin-
tendent and his district shall be di-
vided and a Commissioner be ap-
pointed upon recommendation of the
citizens. The expenses OF the Su-
perintendent and Commissioners are

act for the better protection of water
rights. Under this bill the appropri-
ator has the first right, and he must

The protest against the seating OF
Senator Dubois has created quite a
sensation in Washington. Republl-
can Senators are disgusted with the
action of Clagstt and his Republi-
can followers, but do not blame the
Democrats who signed the protest, as
it is good party politics, they say, to
promote discord in the opposite par
.y. 1t may be good party politics.
but shows a DANCED bad principle, on
either side. The complaints are on
technical grounds, with no charge OF
fraud or dishonesty. Clagett wanted
the six wears term, and wanted it bad
ly, although he had following OF
only eight votes against seventeen toI
Dubois. His motto was long term OF
nothing, and he got the latter by a
big majority. Now he is sore, ex
ceedingly sore, not IN spots, out sore
all over. Dubois credentials vii
not be passed upon until his tern
commences-March 4th-at whicl
time the Legislature will not be II
session. If these petitioners succeed
in preventing the seating of Dubois
the Governor will appoint a Senate
to fill the vacancy until the next Leg
tisIature is elected.

COUNTY Commissioner Smith SAYS
there is no truth in the report that
the people of Long valley are in ia
vor of cutting off that section
from Boise county to be joined to d
portion of Washington county in the
formation of new county. He says
Long valley neither desires the for
nation of new county nor annexa-
ton to any other county. Mr.. Smith
says he does not know of a single res
ident of Long valley that Is Gesirous
of cutting off that valley from this
county. The people of this side of
the county were led to believe that
the settlers of that valley wanted to
form a new county, and the people
of the Basin said, with great unani-
nifty: "If they want to go, let 'em
go. They will meet with no opposi-
ton from u.s. But it seems now
that this was false report. Mr..
Smith says the Long valley settlers
are very much interested in the con-
struction of county wagon road
from Garden valley to Round valley.
The distance is only eighteen miles.
The distance from Van Wyck, the
center of the valley, to this place, by
wagon road, is I10. With road
across the mountain between Garden
valley and Round valley the distance
from Van Wyck to this place, by
wagon road, would be but forty-fve
or fifty miles. This road would prove
beneficial both to Long and Round
valley, and the entire Basin. By all
means let this road be built.

a cHARIvARI party down in Boise
valley made the denizens in the I'M
mediate vicinity of the great con-
gIomeration of noisy harshness and
acoustic aggregation Of wild, ram
pant, discordant sounds, think that
pandemonium had broken loose and
got there with all four feet aud was
dancing a war dance to the high
grade music OF the tom tom, tin can,
and other instruments of terrible
torture. The Statesman says it re-
suited in the shooting of gentle
man, but does not say who the gen
tleman was, what gentleman shot
him, whether he was dangerously
or slightly wounded, or instantly
killed. That paper then gives a real
good, sensible lecture on the evils OF
the charivari, which it denounces as
a relic of barbarism. Anything that
produces evil results is evil, SO this
Boise valley tin can serenade was
evil, as it resulted in the shooting OF
gentleman. This should teach US
at all times to dare to do right, be not
erticed by the siren voice of the tir
can but shun it, for he that gosth ii
the path of the chsrlvarier or lookett
upon the tin can when it moveth it
self Alright and babbleth vainly wher
beIabored with stick, may hearker
unto the keen crack of a shooting iror
and get his system loaded, ever
though he be a gentleman.
