Champion Shot of North Bend.

Some of the people of North Bend got
up an od-fashioned turkey shooting
match, which came off Thursday after
noon. Nimrods from all the surrounding
towns attended, making quite a large
crowd. A. L. kinsey, manager of the
Mount ST hotel, had the honor of being the
only one ruled out. He plugged the GEN.
ter every time. After afew rounds no one
would shoot when he was booked for a
turkey. At q shooting match last Christ
mas Mr.. kinsey got three-quarters of the
turkeys shot away. He has quite local
reputation as a good shot with rifle.
Small glass bottles thrown in the air are
easily smashed with target rifle. He also
does them with his 1870 Winchester. and
dollars thrown up in front of the latter
gun are decidedly unsafe.

His Wife Gets Divorce. Custody OF the
Child and $40 Per Month-Court
Notes - Blotter.

The Considine divorce case, which came
up before Judge Lichtenberg yesterday,
ended practically in compromise. al
though the wife was granted divorce.
John Considine. who has been known to
the public as the owner of the Peoples
tifeater. was sued for divorce by his wife
on the grounds of adultery and desertion:
Considine, in his answer, admitted both
charges, and the fight in court was as to
the alimony sued for The wife alleged In
her pleadings that he had large income
from the earnings of the Peoples theater.
Considine showed, however, in the trial
that he was practically bankrupt and had
little or nothing except mortgaged furni-
ture In the house where he lives with his
mistress. He was forced last August to
sell his interest in the theater to Thomas
Fleming and is now acting as manager for
him at a salary of $25 week.
Judge Lichtenberg granted Mrs. Con-
sidine divorce and gave her the custody
OF her 5-year-old child. He further granted
her $3.50 for expenses incurred in coming
here from her home in Chicago and for
her support since, and also $40 month
allmony

A Story of Turner's English Girls.

Miss Nellie Russell. the young lady who
plays on fifteen different musical instru-
ments. with Turner's English Girls. proved
herself to be quite a heroine in Halifax
while the company was playing there
Miss Russell discovered fire in one of the
dressing rooms. She raised no alarm. but
hastily wrapping a coarse garment about
her, sprang into the room and began tear
ing up the carpet that was already burn
ing Single handed for time, she fought
the fire, fearing to leave the room lest the
building be destroyed, and still more fear
ing to raise an alarm lest panic ensue.
However, she was soon joined by other
members of the company, and together
they extinguished the flames. In the
meantime another scene was being en-
acted. The fire occurred while four young
ladies were doing the "Serpentine
Dance" The audience, smell
ing smoke, were becoming excited, but the
panic was further prevented by the young
ladies going through the dance as though
nothing unusual was occurring. They
seemed TO realize that they were dancing
for one of the highest stakes on earth, hu
man life They danced with a passion
that held the audience against their will.
1t was a parallel case to the snake charm
ing the unwilling bird. The above is told
by an eye witness, and he concludes by
saving: The whole thing was the most
dramatic affair / ever saw, and reflects
credit upon Turner's English girls" This
charming company will appear at the Sc
attic opera house on Monday evening.

TO FIND WHERE IT is.
Preliminary Hearing in Sioux
Half-Breed Scrip Case.
VALUABLE PROPERTY INVOLVED.
Land Office Hearing Evidence as to
Location of Tide Flats Claimed
by Louis Langie.

The local land Office is giving hearing
in the case of II. Ii. Dearborn ct al. pro-
testants, w. the application of Louis
Langie, Sioux half-breed, TO file Sioux
half-breed scrip on certain tide fats in
Elliott bay which are of great value.
The case is not up on its merits, but has
been ordered by the department for the
purpose of determining whether the lands
in question are of the class and character
subject to entry under the land laws of
the United States.
Louis Langie on October l6 lSS9. made
application at the local land Office to file
scrip on 40 acres of tide lands, and on
October IS on another tract of eighty
acres, the 200 acres including Dearborn's
third and fourth additions. property
claimed by the Seattle Improvement Com
pany and by DR.. j. Eugene Jordan and
part of the right-ot-way of the Seattle &
Montana railway.
His application was made nnder pro-
vision of the law for the issue OF Sioux
half-breed scrip, allowing i. to to be filed
on ''unoccupIed lands subject to pre-emp-
ton or private sale and upon other uusur-
yeyed lands not reserved by the govern
1nent, upon which they (the half-breeds)
Aitt'S ptS-ANS!S lGidAc
Mr. Dearborn and the others interested
on the same side entered q protest against
the acceptance OF the application and, the
matter being referred to the officials at
Washington City, they ordered the present
hearing. 1t is not on the application OF
either party. but presumably on the gov
ernment's own motion, for the purpose o.
introducing evidence to show the location
of the filing and how it is situated with
reference to the meander line, so that the
government may have facts to guide 1T IN
determining whether or not the filing
should be accepted.
The protestants or shore owners are rep
resented by Fay, Gest & Henderson, OF
this city. and the scripee by ]. ii. Par
sons, of Birmingham, Ala, and ID. X.
Sickeles. of this city. The attorneys for
both sides have excepted to the jurisdic-
ton of the land office to take testimony in
the case at the present time. The evil
dence introduced so far is to show that TIE
land is entirely covered by navigaDle
water. The hearing is likely to occupy
several days more.
