THE SrRl ET CAR LlNtS.
litlg ltiOa Between The Oregon LAM
90. and the Salem street Rail
way Company.

On the mOrning of Nov. 2d the
Oregon Land Co. applied by its at
torneys, Bonham & Holmes, for a
temporary injunction to stop sale of
personal property of the Salem
Street f tilway Co. by H. w. Cottle
under chattel mortgage.
The papers were served barely in
time to prevent a sale, as the prop
erty had already been bid in by f.
N. Derby, the manager of the new
company that proposed to take hold
of the lines.
THE COMPLAINT
sets out that Jau. 6, 1891, the defen-
dant Street Railway company to
secure a debt of S9,0S6.5O gave its
chattel mortgage to Geo, Williams,
H. w. Cottle, J. A. Baker, b. s
Cook and H. j. Minthorn.
The State Insurance Co. is also
made defendant, by virtue of hav-
ing another chattel mortgage which
| it claims aute-dates the mortgage be-
fore referred to, but which the Ore
gon Land Co.asserts is an unjust and
wrongful claim, Ii bears date Dec.
20, 1890, but the Oregon Land Co.
claims it is of no validity against its
claim, as it proposes to show in court.
1t bases its claim on furnishing three
cars and ten head of horses at the
request of Mr.. Cottle, as secretary
and manager of the Street Railway
Co. aud upon the assurance that it
should be secured in the purchase
price of the articles furnished.
There are serious charges made in
the long pleadings on file not neces
sary to be published.
THE INJUNCTION
was granted and the same will be
heard at the special term of Judge
Boise's court set for Monday, Nov
16 at p. M.
CHE ANSWER
of defendants covers ten pages o
lega cap and is made by their at
torn 4ys Ford & Kaiser. 1t denies
that the State Insurance Coz
chattle mortgage is in justice ant
fair dealing of no validity as agains
the plaintiffs alleged mortgage o
Jan. 6, 1891. 1t denies that any o
the mouey claimed TO have beer
laid out by the Oregon Land Co
was of its private funds or that j
had any assurance of security. They
deny that there was any collusioI
to defraud the Oregon Land Co.
The whole controversy will nov
come before the circuit court ano
threatens to become one of the mos
complicated pieces of litigation eve
in our courts.

Insomnia IsDangerous.

DR.. Sara B. Chase is a great believ-
er in resting the brain. She said:
People die sooner from brain work
than they do from physical work.
We ought not to be obliged to work
so as to kill ourselves. We can stand
a great deal more of physical work if
we have proper conditions oflife than
we can brain work. The brain is .
very peculiar organ, and requires
more attention and care than pre-
haps any other organ Of the body.
1t must plenty ofrest and plenty
Of change and recreation. The only
way to rest the brain properly and
thoroughly is by taking sleep. 1.-THE
brain becomes overtaXed and weary
through a constant amount of work
and worry it must be rested by hav-
ing: an entire change of scene and con-
dition. When the brain has become
Wearled the whole body becomes dis
organized, and for a man to be in a
healthy condition his brain must be
strong and clear and active. The
brain is the most active and hard
worked Of all the organs of the body,
and great care must be taken that it
is not overtaxed and overburdened.
Students particularly should avoid
studying too hard. Persons who are
troubled with insomnia are in very
dangerous condition. There are many
who obtain only two or three hours
sleepin night and yetfeel comparat-
lively well and free from pain. They
will however, break. down very sudden
ly. This is caused very often by their
nerves not being in a healthy condi-
ton, and unless attended to at once
may develop into insanity.-New

The Horse in Battle.

An officer of experience, writing on
the behavior Of horses in battle,
says: "When it comes to battle, a
horse seems to know everything that
is going on; but he does his duty
nobly and seems to be in his element.
He enters into the spirit of the bat
tile like a human being. He shows
no fear of death. and it is singular
that if his mate is shot down, he will
turn to look at him and seem pleased.
A horse in my battery was once
struck by piece of shell which split
his skull SO that one side was loose.
The driver turned him loose, but he
walked up by the side of the gun and
watched the firing, and when shot
was fired would look away in the d.
rection of the enemy as if too see the
effect of the shot. When a shell
would burst near by, he would calm
ly turn and look at it. When he
saw his own team going back for
ammunition, he ran back to his own
place and galloped back to the Gals
son with the rest. When the lieuten-
ant pushed him aside to put in an
other horse, he looked at the other
one sorrowfully while he was being
harnesses up, and when he seemed to
realize that there was no further use
for him he lay down and died The
1ieutenant>stronlgy asserted. that he
died of a broken heart" Court

A Dog Coaxer.

"Dog Profit Holloway, the tramp
who was found q short time ago in
Connecticut, nearly dead from expos
ure, is we'll known there because of
the fascination he exercises over
dogs. He has been seen accompan-
led. by as many as twenty-five dogs,
and he always has from four to ten
with him. Almost any dog will fol-
low him with half an invitation, it
is said, and when he coaxes no dog
can resist him. Valuable dogs have
been known to leave their masters to
take up with Holloway, and, when
brought back would seek the first
opportunity to join the beggar.
Holloway has been SO long wan

residence, but, so far as can be
learned, he was born in Foster, r. L

The sending Of a telegram is, apparently,

him, that IL was useless to doubt his sin
certify Throughout and beyond the county
the fact spread that in Pine Hollow there
was living tombstone. Visitors fiocked
to that place.
Now 1t would mar the authenticity of
this story to say that Jasper Diggs had no
relaxation, that he stood at the head Of his
fathers grave day and night, and, like any
other tombstone, didn't eat and sleep.
When evening came he left the place with
solemn elaboration and wended his way
homeward He appeared in his conven.
tional style until he returned to the GENE

"Never ask me any questions while / am
on duty, for won't answer them, was his
advice to hectoring youth. At noon, If
no visitors fingered about the grounds.
Jasper ate his luncheon, which he had
brought with him. IL must have dawned
upon the mind Of the reader ere this that
there was one prime object which held
Jasper Diggs with such fidelity to bis post
He was quite rapidly gaining that object
for nearly every stranger dropped a coin

IL cannot be a pleasant prospect, even to

Somehow people after that hung their
heads and acted as though they were
ashamed Of themselves when Jasper was
around, and no one ventured any longer To
mock his manners or to jeer at his condi.
ton. And somehow Jasper did not appear
TO their eyes as he had before, for In reality
he reversed the apparent intention of ma
