TACOMA, Jan. 2S.-[Special. After two
years of untirlng search Mrs. Henry
Brick, of San Francisco, found her lost
boy Henry in this city, and with him in
charge she left today to join her husband,
who is employed in a San Francisco sugar
refinery. Two years ago, while the Bricks
resided in this city, Henry, then aged II
years, ran away from home. He worked
for farmers in Oregon and then herded
hogs in California. In the mean
time his parents moved to San
Francisco. His mother had instituted
a search for him in nearly all of the Coast
cities and towns, and when Henry reached
San Francisco two months ago she was
still mourning and searching for him. The
boy was sick and tired of roughing it
about the country, and took passage for
Tacoma aboard the Walla Walla, expect
ing to meet his parents here. Mrs. Brick,
learning that her boy was at Tacoma,
came here at once, and to make sure he
would not get away, she telegraphed the
chief OF police twice while en- route to de-
tain him, which was done. When the
mother had folded the lad to her breast
and wept with Joy, she had Henry washed
and scrubbed and attired in brand new
suit from head to foot. The boy says he
will never leave home again.

Verdict in the Idaho Million

Heavy Loss Of Cattle by the Cold
Weather in Southern Idaho.

BOISE CRY, Idaho, Jan. 2s.-In the
United States circuit court in the case of
Tyler VS.. the Last Chance Mining Com
pany, the jury tonight returned verdict
in favor OF defendants. The case will be
appealed. The property is valued at
81 100000.
This suit was by far the most important suit
ever tried in Idaho The claims were located in
1856, that of the Last Chance being September
H. aud the Tyler September 20. 1t was claimed
by the Tyler men that the record of the date of
location of the Last Chance was not correct, aad
that they had, in fact. priority of location. In
former suit in which priority was the
main question, tried in 1899, the Last
Chance was victorious and the ground
in contest given to that property Work
on the Tyler, as shown by the diagram
in evidence, is tunnel and incline striking the
vein st depth of 800 feet, which finally broke
into the Last Chance works One point involved
is that of the outcrop. The Tyler men claim
that il is their vein that runs into the Last
Chance, and that they have right to il within
their end of the lines extended, and that the
Last Chance should be restricted to that portion
of the vein covered by its location, followed
between lines running at right angles TO strike
the lode, which is held to be about north
As degrees west, having dip to the southwest
into the mountain of about forty degrees. In
case the Tyler men established their claims
they would have secured vast body of valua-
bic ore. The Last Chance men hold that the
outerop set up by the Tyler men is nothing but
the line of the foot wall ledge, which is of great
width, the hanging wall of which is still be-
yond the lines of the Last Chance and has never
been found; that the Last Chance is located
on an outcrop of this lode, and that
being the older location it has the
right to all mineral within its line.

ceeded the expectations, with pros
poets of more satisfactory in

industries were in thriving condition,

The amendments made at the last
session to the land law with a

ought to be further amended TO preserve
such lands for actual settlers. Several
new measures would be submitted,
including proposals for the establish
ment of settlements of crofters
along the seaboard with view
to the development of the deep sea fisher
les. Although long delayed there was
reason to anticipate settlement of the
vexed question of the rights to Bering sea,
and it is to be hoped that the terms may
be such as will permit of the important
sealing industry being prosecuted without
further obstruction.

ANTI-CHINEsE CAMPAIGN.
Heather Driven or WILDLY Island
Matchmaking the Contrabands

The movement to drive out the China
men from WILDLY island, which began
last summer, has been carried on so vigor-
ously that of the $50 Cinnamon who lived
on the island less than year ago only
eighteen or twenty remain. G. E. Mum,
special Chinese inspector, explained the
exodus to a PosT-INTELLIGENCER reporter
yesterday thus:
The property-owners have refused to
rent land to che Cinnamon any more, and
as nobody will employ them, they have
had 70 leave. The eighteen or twenty who
remain have nothing to do and are living
off the stock in a small store they have on
the island, but that will soon be exhausted
and then they will have to 90. too.
The ranchers are taking to cultivating
the land themselves instead of leasing it
to Cinnamon. 1t may cost them little
more to grow potatoes and other truck
than it cost the Chinese, but they keep the
land in better condition. The Chinese
cultivate land in a wasteful manner and
take everything out there is in il, leaving
il in poor condition. Last year the crops
were poor and many of them jumped their
potato patches, leaving their crops and not
paying their rent.
1t is no easy matter for a Chinaman to
live in this country after he has been
struggled in. Hewill contract with white
man to bring him across the boundary. and
his guide will have spoilers all along the
trail who threaten to inform on the
Cinnamon unless he buys them off Even
when they get to town they are bled by
these fellows. who go to them and
threaten to give them away unless they
put up. Only the other day Chinaman
pointed ont man who had gone into his
place and threatened TO inform on him
unless he gave up 800. The Chinaman
paid the money; he was mistaken as to
the identity of the man, but there is no
question that he was bled. There are lots
of men in this town who live off the
Cinnamon by such methods
