Sullivan Thinks Maher Is Trying to G ct
Some Cheap Glory.
As John l.. Sullivan sat in his dressing
room before the performance last night
squeezing his 240 pounds of flesh into his
tight fitting blacksmith suit he ventured
few remarks in regard to the challenge of
Potter Maher, telegraphed from New York.
"These fellows know I'm not able to break
away from my engagement, and keep after
me right along. Itgives them chance 10 90
about exhibiting themselves as the men
who've got possible fight on with Sulli-
van. They can make money ut that. No,
l shall pay no attention to the challenge Of
Maher. Every time they srrinR ono of
these things can figure out whore it starta.
This is Richard X. Fox's money behind
Maher. Well, when this season is over and
land in New York in June, YOU bet there
won't be one of these fellows within
sight"
Speaking of the possibility Of meeting

Injury Case Presenting Its
Testimony.

mary Way.
Suit Commenced to Forsclose u $4,000
Mortgage on tho Gilmore Ranch
in the Valley.

Judge Knowles and jury in the circuit
court are still listening to testimony in the
damage suit Of W. +, Finnie, formerly in
the employ of the Northern Pacific Rail-
road company. Finnie is suing the COM
pany for $4,000 damages for injuries re-
ceived by the fall OF trestle near Boulder
in October, 1890. Fnnis was the conductor
of freight train which fell when the
structure gave way. Finnie is trying to
prove that his spine wns permanently in
jured. The railroad company maintains
that the trestle was in good order and that
the accident did not occur through any
negligence on its part. On tho stand the
plaintiff stated tnat he was receiving $1l5
per month and pay for overtime at the
time Of the accident. He complained of a
pain in his back, which did not bother him
constantly. Judge Cullen, who is one of
the counsel for the railrond company, ask ed
Finnie if there were any perquisites con-
nected with his position as conductor.
Finnie did not understand the question.
did you mako anything on the side?''
asked the Judge. The witness replied that
there were opportunities to do SO; some
times he could make SIS per day.
The railroad company had a number of
physicians OH the stand yesterday, who
testified that the plaintiff was afflicted with
peculiar complaint and that there was
nothing wrong with his spine in their op!n-
ion. There are number of witnesses for
both sides. The case may bs finished to-
day.

Duncan II. Harrison Says sullivan Il
Capable 0f GFeater HistrIoni0 Efforts.
Dunoan B. Harrison. who wrote the play
Of Honest Hearts and Willing Hands, to
I'll whatever talent John II. Sullivan might
have al an actor; has been travelling over
the four corners Of the earth with tho big
fellow" for about two years. He 10 enthua-
tic in his praises Of Sullivan, and pro-
nouncea him one Of the most big henrted
fellows in the world. II the public would
ONLY learn to diaaagooiate Sullivan tho
fighter from Sullivan the actor, Mr. Harri-
son thinks they would soon learn to appre-
ciate his efforts on the stage more. ''John
Y. Sullivan has moro capacity and breadth
than he 10 generally given credit for" he
says. "One thing, .he is perfectly natural
on the ac:11.., and there is no attempt ut
overactin1. In what he has had to do, his
acting in Honest Hearts and Willing
Handa' ikTery good, and those who have
gone to SEQ only Sullivan huve gone away
aRreeably disappointed.
"Our season comes to an end in June.
Then l will very likely write a new play in
which Sullivan will have more scope.
Honest Hearts and Willing Hands, in
which Sullivan has only q minor part,
though of course he 10 the central figure,
was written as sort OF an experiment to
see what he could do. In 'Broderick
Agra it Ia different. There Sullivan's is

be the same. We will run the new play

Resolutions Passed at the Meeting In As
scmbly Hall Last Night.
There was fair sized audience at As
sembly hall last evening, in response to the
call of Workingmen's Assembly, X. Of L. It
was a public meeting and the subject under
discussion was tho Chinese exclusion act
The debate was participated in by nearly
all present, and the following was adopted
unanimously:
Whereas, The Chinese restriction act will
expire on the 9Th of May, and then we may
expect that millions Of those cheap servile
creatures will flock to our shore. Remem-
Der that China has surplus population of
over one hundred millions; they stand but
twelve days away from us; passages are
cheap; steamships are numerous; their
owners are alien to us in nationality, nB
we'll az in sentiment, and will not hesitate
to transport those people here by the mil
lion if we leave the gates ajar. Therefore,
be it
Resolved, That the following petition be
sent to congress-: We, citizens and resi-
dents Of the state Of Montana, do urgently
demand the passage of g law which will
prevent the emigration or importation of
Chinese to the United States. We are un-
alterably opposed to the landing of single
Chinese in this country, and ask for the
speedy passage of such legislation as will
forever deny them admission to the terri
torv embraced within the limits of the
United States.
There will be another public meeting at
tho hall in about a week, when the Chinese
question will be again discussed.

COL. RAYMOND's LICENSE.

The Usual Custom was Observed in Issu-
ing It,
When Deputy County Treasurer Dolliver
was witness before Judge Sanders on the
preliminary hearing of Col. Raymond, who
was bound over to appear before the dis
trict court, he did not have an opportunity
to explain how it was that the colonel was
given license to run his faro game.
County Attorney Nolan made it appear
that the license was dated back.'' Col.
Raymond applied for the license on Jan. Is.
AS is customary he was asked how long he
had been in business and answered that he
commenced on Jan. s. The license was
then filled out to run from Jan. 5 to Feb. s.
but the date Of issue appeared on it, Jan. Is.
Mr.. Barden and his deputy say they did
not know warrant was out for tho COL
onel's arrest at the time, or they would
probably have refused to grant the license.
The usual custom was observed in this case
rs in the case Of any merchant in the
county.

THE LABOR BUTTON.

The Invention of q Montana Man Which
May Bring Him Fortune.
Montana is not behind the country in
anything. and though her population is but
scant her citizens average up we'll in brains
and inventive genius. number of inven-
tions that have proved successful and now
on the market are the creations of Montana
men and women. Perhaps the most novel
invention credited to a citizen of this state,
is one for which Tony A. Tubbs, of White
Sulphur Springs, was recently granted q q
is about the size of those worn by Grand
Army members, but it has white border,
and it is intended to be worn by men want
ing work. In measure it will do away
with employment agencies, as the persons
wearing it will be understood to be seeking
work, and the cost of the button will not
exceed ten cents. Mr.. Tubbs was in Helena
the other day on his way to Chicago, where
he has arranged for the manufacture of the
buttons, and for placing them on the
market.
