The 23rd infantry band will give
their regular semi.w eekly concert at
the Military post tonight. An ex-

tionary. The soldiers made their es-
cape in short order.
Battery F, Third artillery, Is booked
for the Dallas fair again this year.
The men all like to go to Dallas; they
always are treated we'll by the citi.
zens of that place. No cavalry troops
have yet been booked for the "trip. 1t
is, thought, however, that some may
go.
Yesterday morning the companies
of the 23d infantry underwent regi-
mental inspection and general review
under the command of Col Copptnger.
Sergeant Chss. Cone, battery F.,
0rd artillery, receives his discharge,
after five years service, today, and
will re. enlist in the same battery.
Cone is an old, trusted and well.liked
soldier of the battery and his com.
rades are glad 10 have him remain
among them.
The Inspecting general of the de.
partment is givin Fort Sam Hous ton |
a thorough inspection.
A report 10 in circulation at the
post, its truthfulness is not vouched |
for, which goes to say that the en-
listed men will commence taking |
their meals IN the consolidated mess |
hall in the early part Of next month. |
This statement, however, is denied by |
some. The majority Of the enlisted |
men would rather have the place
DO turned into post gym
nasium then q mess hall. Those |
especially, who mess we'll at their |
companies are not in favor of the con.
solidated mess, while those who are
compelled to put IN with poor food in |
their companies greatly desire the
change.
A picnic party is being gotten up at
the post to go out and spend Sunday
fishing on the SaladO.

says that several slligators have been
seen in the San Antonio river at that
point. An old one aud two young
ones have lived near the Wool mills.
While several are reported both up
and down the river. This seems as
though these animals were becoming
more numerous in this district. Three
years ago the closest that one was
seen to the city was at the mouth of

Pacific railroad occupied nearly the whole

ticket from Nincennes. Ind, TO Seattle.

her ticket and gave her a check which
designated Missoula, Mont, as her des-
sinstion. At Missoula the conductor re-

having fare. The young lady had not the
money, but gentleman on the train adj

THE EVERETT LAND Coxrrsr
onTy hewitt, Jr., Admitted to Have
Furnished the Money.

Inc Everett land contest which was be-
gun tuesday was continued yesterday be-
Iore heg1ster Reed and Receiver Ogden
Inc contestant rested the case with the
testimony already introduced and the de-
iendant continued the case by introducing
four witnesses.
henry Hewitt, jr., father of W. H. Hew-
itt' against whom the contest was entered
aulnitteo that he furnished money to nur-
chase the REIMBURSEMENT, but intended to
DuiId sawmiii and start small town in
the summer of 1890 He testified that he
put ms son on the land now in dispute so
that he would be near the mill; that the
land had timber on it valued at about 500.
Ihe evidence disclosed the fact that no
sawmiil had been put in.
W. r. Brown, a timber estimator and
cruiser" testified that ne bought the re-
hnquishment from William Shearer at the
request OF Henry Hewitt, ir.; that he pur-
chased other Accomplishments near the
tract at issue. Henry Hewitt. ir.. fur
nished money to pay for the Shearer relin-
quishment. He described certain i'm
provements made, such as clearing, put
ling in vegetables and sinking a well. He
was positive William II. Hewitt did not
ment.
John Spencer, who was one of the final
proof witnesses, testified that he was in
the employ of Henry Hewitt, IT., during
all the time William H. Hewitt resided on
the land; that he lived on what is known
as the Island farm. at the mouth of the
Snohomish river. William Hewitt was in
his tSpencer's) employ fully one-.hird of
the time before offering final proof, and
he paid him with Henry Hewitt's money.
William Spencer, one of the final proof
witnesses, testified that he was employed
by young Hewitt for two months during
the fall of 1890 to work on the land; that
Hewitt was there part of the time. On
being cross-questioned he admitted that
he testified on final proof to Hewitt's con-
tinuous residence, but that he did not see
the land from December, 1890, until the
following May, and consequently he did
not see Hewitt on the land during that
time.
An adjournment was taken until this
morning.

THAT MISSING OPIUM.
Jensen's Friends Say That He Did Not
Steal 1t.


Steal 1t.
w. NJ. Jones, the Northern Pacific depot
officer, says the statement contained in
Tuesdays PosT-ISTELLIGENcER in regard
to the struggled opium which Gus Jensen,
formerly baggage agent at the depot, ac-
cused Taylor Holden of stealing at the
Northern Pacific depot is incorrect. This
is his account of the affair:
The trunk containing the opium came TO the
depot, and Jensen thought there was something
wrong about it, so he telephoned Holden Hol-
den came down, opened IL and found a big grip
inside containing opium. He closed up the
trunk, sealed It aud let 1t go on the next train
to Slaughter. 1t was returned from
there in charge of Wayman, Holden's
stool-pigeon. As soon as II was unloaded at the
depot Judla Moore, driver for the Transfer
company, took IL to the customs Office. Holden
went with him in the wagon and took charge OF
the trunk at the Office When the customs off,
GERS settled with Jensen they only paid him his
share of the reward twenty-five pounds of
opium. He kicked and said there was more
opium In the trunk, and the quantity hal been
cut down fully half Jensen thinks that half the
opium was taken out after il reached the Gus
toms Office, and he suspects Holden of taking
it As the trunk was in Holden's charge, he
could easily break his own seal, open the trunk,
take out what he wanted and seal IL up again.
Moore will corroborate this story.

WE'RE GOING TO NEW YORK.
Two Contraband Cinnamon Caught nj
the Depot.


Deputy United States Marshal c. A.
Spriggs captured Mung Bing and All Toy,
contrabands, last night at Oils o'clock,
just as they were about 10 board q North
ern Pacific train en- route to New YORK.
The Cinnamon kept on the off side of
the track, and had several friends with
them to help them away. Just as the
train was about to start, the officer caught
them and placed them at once in the
county Jail.
Mung Bing. who speaks fairly good En-
glish, had ticket on the Union Pacific for
New York and si57.55 on his person. All
Toy. who was evidently a very recent ar
rival. could only murmur San Francisco,
and had only $500 in a dainty Chinese
pocketbook. Both men had several pieces
of bright Chinese money in their purses.
They were well dressed and had provisions
enough to satisfy a small army. They
were placed IN a cell by themselves and
will be brought up before United States
Commissioner kiefer this afternoon.
Officer Spriggs regards the capture as i'm
portant and promises some peculiar devel-
opments in the case.

policy of such a course, claimed that the
board had the right to exclude foreigners,
at least those who were adults. as the
schools were for the education of the chill
dren of the district. The Japanese pupils
were constantly increasing, and might
crowd out the whites; they were dish
washers, and smelt of their trade.
The matter was left to the superintend-
ent, who will make rules as to cleanliness.
Petition of II. W. Scott for the use of
the Hyde street temporary school for q
ward club meeting, was rejected.
Superintendent Barnard was instructed
to furnish, and where necessary, rent ad-
ditional rooms for the Denny, Mercer,
Rainier, South and Central schools.
