VIII Get Himself Into Serious
Trouble.

Henry Kohne, Fourth-street saloon
keeper, came tearing into Justice of the
Peace Henry's courtroom yesterday, and
in an excited manner demanded to know
why he was being assessed twice for the
costs in the suit which James G.. Davis
brought against him.
Judge Henry said the costs had not
even been paid once much less twice.
'Yes,' said Kohne, "the constable was
down to my place and collected 81 50.''
Judge Henry sent for Constable Bris-
sci and the latter promptly denied that
he had collected any costs. Kohne in
sisted that Brissel had called at the saloon
while his (Kohne's) son was presiding at
the bar and collected s. so.
is your son at the saloon now?"
asked the Constable
Eyes"
''Well, come along and we win &C
down there. If be says got any money
from him he lies, and I'll punch his nose
tor him."
Kohnc began to feel a little anxious fol
the safety of his offspring, but neYerthe-
less willingly accompanied the officer.
Arriving at the saloon young kohne
was confronted. lie promptly stated
that the officer was not the man who had
collected the money. He described the
collector and the description closely fits
one Of the many sharpers who are now il
town.
Judging from young kohne's story
this fellow had evidently heard that there
was suit between Kohne and Davis, and
boldly walking into the saloon said he
was court officer, and had come to collect
the costs. He told the Young man that
the regular fees amounted to So, but he
would be easy and cut it down TO s. so.
The amount is small, but the crime OF
impersonating an officer is q serious one,
and efforts Will be made 10 run the fellow

Make q Confession.

Two MISREPRESENTATION Garroters
Make Confession.
The second edition OF the recent tragic
story of s. W. Buffers experience with
two desperate garroters has just been
made public.
On Tuesday morning when Butler
came down town he told his friends how,
on the previous evening, he was pounced
upon by two foot-pads while walking
down Fourth street toward his home.
lie told also with some mild braggadocio
how he faced the enemy, squared of"
at them, and, with few deXterous pu-
gilistic maneuvers, caused the would-be
robbers to change their minds and fee
for their lives.
But now come two young men-inti-
mate acquaintance of Butler's-who,
without regard for their friends reputa-
ton, explain that the whole thing was a
well carried out practical joke. Their
names are George Stack and James
O'Meara. They had been drinking in a
saloon with Butler Just before the latter
started home, and warned him 10 be on
The lookout Tor garroters. But no sooner
had Butler gone out of the front door
than these rogues left hastily by a rear
door which led into an alley, and then
they waited for their friend at the corner
OF Fourth street and the alley.
Butler soon hove in view, and was or
dered to throw up his hands.
Then comes the worst part of it all.
According TO the story told by the jokers,
Butler did not exhibit any inclination to
srgue the matter with them. On the con-

There was something of commotion
in the Tycoon Saloon on K street

The commotion was caused by one

also rudely disturbed under disagreeable
circumstances, and sought the sidewalk
for safety.
Some of those who claimed to have
been present stated that man named

UNION reporter could get it appeared that
Patterson was brandishing his pistol

Stafford went to the place as soon as they
heard Of the shooting, and inquired of the
barkeeper how it happened. That indi-

WANTS Her RANCHES.
Mrs. BeIcher Not Satisfied With the
Actions of the Lessees.
She Says They Violated Their Agree
ments and RofUsed to Pay Her
Damages Asked.

Mrs. S. w. Belcher, VINO owns several
large ranches on the Jackson road, near
the Slough House, recently leased two of
her places to George. Arthur and Ed
ward Booth One of the places leased was
the tract known as the Scott ranch, near
the Consumes postof1ice, and for this the
Booths are alleged to have agreed to pay
Mrs. Belcher monthly rental Of 81 ,247 90
per year. The other place leased was all
of that part of the Old Belcher ranch be-
low Daylor's ranch, and il is claimed that
the lessees agreed to pay 81 ,66S rs per year
for this place.
Mrs. Belcher commenced suit in the
Superior Court yesterday, for damages,
and the restitution of the premises, claim
ing that the terms Of the lease had not
been complied with.
According TO Mrs. Belcher's complaint
the terms Of the lease were that the
Booths should keep the ranches in good
repair, take good care OF the trees and
vines by spraying and pruning them
when necessary, and by taking such
other care as was deemed advisable. The
fruit that was raised on the places was 10
be shipped East for sale, and in Mrs.
Belcher's name. She was also to receive
all the money realized on these sales, and
after paying over to the lessees 35 per
cent. of such money for running ex-
penses, was to withhold 65 per cent. for
herself-to be applied to TIE rent due for
the year, this plan continuing until the
rent was fully paid. In addition to this
she was to be paid 2l50 cash, TO cover an
outlay to that amount made by her for
repairs on the places this year
Mrs. Belcher sets forth in her complaint
1 that the lessees have not lived up TO their
! agreements; that they refused to make
any shipments in her name: and that
they have not paid any money over to
her except the 500 due for repairs. She
further sets forth that they have not lived
up to their agreement to keep the ranches
in good repair. She considers that she
has been damaged $1,000, and asks the
court for treble that amount, together
with S2,9l6 % for rent due, and for the
restitution of the premises. She also
sues for the costs of the suit.
