SUPREME COURT DECISIONS.

Three of Them Filed in the Clerks
Ohice Yesterday.
There were yesterday filed in the
Supreme Court Clerks Office in this city
three decisions. One was in the case of
Palmer 81 Rey against the Marysville
Democrat Publishing Company. The
issue involved was the recovery of a
printing press sold to McWhorter, a
former publisher, who sold it to Messrs
Holland IL Crane.
A non-suit was granted the defendants
in the lower court, and the plaintiffs ap-
peaIed. The decision of the court con-
cludes:
1.-The only question for consideration is
whether the court erred in its ruling
McWhorter sold the property to Holland
IL Crane and they had full notice of the
terms and conditions under which the
former had secured possession OF it. The
agreement of June q, 1887, was binding
not only upon McWhorter, but upon
subsequent purchasers. with notice of
the conditions under which McWhorter
took and held the property. Assuming
that the plaintiffs were required to prove
that the defendants took the property
with notice of the facts, the grounds of
the motion for nOn-sult do not specify
a failure to prove such notice; and, under
suit cannot be granted unless the ground
upon which it is supported was called to
the attention of the court and the plain
tiff at the time the motion was made
None of the grounds stated in the state
ment on motion for a new trial are well
taken.
Judgment and order reversed, and
cause remanded for new trial"

Thrilling Story of an Evangelist's Ex-
perience in Nevada.
Night Clerk Bell of the Golden Eagle
was reciting some poetry to an indulgent
bell-boy and a sleepy hackman when the
reporter entered and inquired for news.
Nothing startling" replied the hand
some clerk. mo murders or suicides
that 1 have been able to learn of. But, 1
say, have you met Bennett yet?"
James Gordon Bennett?"
''Naw-W. T. Bennett, the well-known
travelling evangelist. He has just arrived
from Nevada, where he had an expert
ence that beats anything you ever read in
dime novel"
Cant you tell us about it?"
''Well, / suppose I could, but then I
couldn't tell ii in the dramatic way that
he could do it. But I'll try. You see.
Mr.. Bennett was making one of his regu-
lar trips through the Sagebrush State and
started out one morning Tor Il hunt near
Tuscarora. He was walking along leis-
ureiy near a ravine, when he was start
led by an angry snort, and looking up he
was Mortified to find a mammoth buck
deer with immense antlers only a few feet
distant, making directly for him. He en-
deavored TO turn aside, but the antlers
caught him by the pants, and he was
thrown IN the air. But his presence of
mind was with him, so he reached out
and grabbed the antlers with a grip of
iron. In wild desperation he hung on
and wrapped his legs about the deer's
body. The buck flew like the wind.
With wonderful nerve Mr.. Bennett then
took out his knife opened it and plunged
it several times into the neck of the foam
ing buck, who, maddened with pain,
dashed on to a small stream and forded
it with Bennett submerged in water.
Once more on terra tirma the buck es-
sayed to continue his mad flight, but Ben
nett, who had picked up stout club as
the animal scrambled up the bank, soon
dispatched him. Bennett went to town
and returned with team, secured the
antlers, and here he is having them
mounted in u store on J in this city

| thrilling one, and it is vouched for by

They carried the bell-bOy out on shut

the hackman's remains. The reporters

Steam Launch for Boca.

A new steam launch is on the road from
San Francisco for Prosser Creek, where
it will be put on the ice pond at that
place. She is 22l feet long, with three
horsepower engine, and was built by the
Regan Vapor Engine Company for Ed
ward Hopkins OF Menlo Park. Her trial
proving satisfactory to Mr.. Hopkins, she
has been shipped to Boca, Nevada Coun-
ty, where'he proposes to use her ON the

prettiest of Regan's specimens, and ought

Congressman Johnson and Senator
Hansbrough seem to be keeping up
their old feud, Notwithstanding that
they have both got what they wanted.
At Devils Lake Hansbrough had a
candidate for register of the land Of
flee at that place and johnson, who
should have had enough courtesy
about him not to Interfere in this
particular instance, also had can
didate, and naturally to be expected,
the president sustained the senator.
It would have been bad policy for
the administration to have appointed
one OF Hansbrough's enemies in his
own town. The same state ofaffairs
exist in regard to the Fargo postof-
flee, Johnson fighting against the ap-
pointment of Jordan. 1t is usual for
the senators to recommend for the
presidential Offices and the congress-
man for fourth class Offices. Would
it not be better for both to quit fool
ing with each other and each attend
to his own legitimate business?
