The Auction.
From the size of the crowd which
gathered on Main street at about 2
o'clock yesterday, waiting for the sale OF
the city team to be commenced, it might
have been supposed, with a reasonable
foundation for the supposition, that
there would be a spirited bidding. The
rain pelted them on the heads and wet
them thoroughly, but it did not seem to
disturb the equanimity Of the crowd, and
they all congregated about the team
when it wa brought out, and did not
nothing but make remarks. They might
do have made bids, but they preferred re-
marks. When the bidding was com
menced, some frightened mortal, in a
%quavering voice, as if in fear lest he
should be heard, announced that he
was willing to risk the %stupendous sum
of $3.50 in a team of horses, weighing
5000 pounds, and good for a number of
years of hard work. Some other person
then became wonderfully brave and
offered S155. Gerald Pierce then made
a bid of $3.50, and they we're announced
as sold. The harness was also bid in by
some person for $l7, and the wagon ex-
cited more spirit among the bidders than
anything else which had been offered,
and was knocked down to VIM. jaeger
for $31. For real, lively, spirited bidding
the sale was q dismal failure.
Gottlieb's BOY.
Gottlieb Hubur's notice in the TR1B-
N of Friday must have had an i'm
mediate effect, for Saturday morning at
about ten o'clock, a muscular, deter
mined looking German woman might
have been seen marching up East Third
street, holding by the arm a youngster,
about ten years Of age, who was making
the sidewalk moist with his tears. The
woman was not known to those who
happened to see her, but the boy was
Gottlieb's; the one who persists in run
ming away from the bed and
board of his father and living with his
neighbors. The woman wa sent out
presumably to gather the boy unto her.
self and bring him home, for she held to
her charge with a firm and determined
grip, and a "come on, you little rascal
look in her eye. The boy did not want
to come. He persisted in his declara.
ton to that effect until they reached the
corner, when he seized upon an oppor.
tunity, when his captor had somewhat
relaxed her vigilance and wrepohing his
arm loose, he tore down the street with
the speed of a greyhound. The old lady
was stunned for a moment, and then
with a "d~onnerwetter' on her lips she
took after him. But as in the recent
prize fight. youth and condition told
against age and adiposity, and the boy
made good his escape. At latest reports
he had not been recaptured.
