KITsAP COUNTY MANS BRUTALITY.



Traction. Kitsap County, March s.
Especial George Moser is q chicken
rancher who has q small tract adjoining
the townsite. on which he is raising vege-
tables. A quartette of cows belonging to
neighbors suddenly took a fancy to the
cabbages in Moser's yard, and a. there was
no fence to keep them away from tempta.
ton, they strayed in and were having
things their own way when Moser espied
them, and noticing the diminished heads
OF cabbage, flew into terrible rage. Not
content with shying rock or q stick of
cordwood at them, he seized an az and
began striking the animals. The result of
his butchery and fendishness was sicken-
ing to contemplate. Tho cows were seen
dragging themselves away through the
streets Of town, one with a jagged cut
which almost touched the kidneys, another
with its bag literally torn and hacked, and
a third slashed in numerous places. dumb
testimony to the brutal act of Moser. The
animals left a bloody trail to the scene,
and Moser barely escaped lynching at the
hands OF the popuiace here. 1t is under
stood that he will be prosecuted. Moser is
a hard-working man, but evidently of
brutal instincts and vicious tendencies.

TOOK THE LOT BACK. ri
The City Regretted Its Generosity in
Giving Away Land.

OiVIuS Away LdHu.
Attorney S. w. Holiday, citing on be-
half Of the Academy of Sciences, filed a
brief yesterday in the Superior Court on
the motion for a new trial in the suit
brought by the Academy of Scien ces
against the city and county of San Fran
cisco.
The history Of the case dates back as far
outside lands to possessors under order
500. At that time the city parceled off a
ppce of ground situate on First avenue and
equal in size to about two 50-vara lots,
gave it to the Academy of Sciences. and in
the off -ial map of outside lands published
al that time the property named was
designated as belonging to the Academy of
Sciences.
Some two or three years ago the Board
of Education by auth ority of the Super
visorS ordered a schOolhOuse to be built on
the lot, and in fact a building stands there
now. which is occupied as public school.
The Academy of Sciences pT0tes ted
against this. and claiming the lot under
order 500 before referred to brought suit
for its recovery against the city. The case
was tried before Superior Judge Finn,
who rendered judgment for the defendant.
The plaintiffs attorneys then prepared
bill OF exception, duly certified, on which
a motion for a new trial is pending.
The reason given by Judge Finn for the
adverse judgment WAS that while the city
power to do so. In moving for a new trial
the plaintiff wants TO know why the city
and State have no power to grant lot to
the Academy If Sciences, when the pro-
ceedlngS of the city to that end have been
authorized and ratified by the Legislature.

A DISGRUNTLED CLERK.
An Aftermath of the General Rejoice
ing on the Fourth.

ing on the Fourth.
Some weeks ago w. III. Ashcroft
appeared at the headquarters of the
Fourth of July committee, and was a
regular attendant every day. Nothing
much was thought of this, for the
reason that many of those interested In
ceremonies incident to Independence day
made the rooms their usual Longing place.
At the end of two weeks. however, Mr..
Ashcroft put in an account Tor pay during
that period of time. He valued his services
at just $50 The committee felt panied at
having to refuse any one anything at the
time of the annual rejoicing, but it was
out this year to make a record, so they
threw the bill out. Furthermore, some one
was unkind enough to ask young Ashcroft
what he was doing up in the rooms any
way. lie asserted that he had been en-
ployed by Mr.. Hester, who for short
time acted as one Of the secretaries. As
the committee knew nothing of the matter
he was referred to Mr.. Hester.
Instead he entered suit against the
Fourth OF July committee, and attached
It's account at the Crocker d Woolworth
Bank for $40. The difference between
the $50 and the sum sued for is, in lawyer
like phrase, ''for agony Of mind and body
caused by denial of his cla,m.' The COM
mittee had S1442 in the bank and yesterday
it wanted some Of it. so j. W. Grove
and R. Ash eleased the attachment upon
giving bonds.

mittee has on deposit at the Pacific Bank,

Those Dupont. Street Bonds.

j. 3. Wright. executor of the estate of
Alexander II. Rutherford. deceased, has
pettioned the Probate Court for an order
of sale of certain bonds belonging to the
estate.
Among the property left by the decedent
were seven Dupont-street bonds of the
city and countv OF San Francisco of the
par value of $1,000 each. besides forty-five
interest coupons valued at S35 each. The
validity Of the issuance of these bonds is
now before the Supreme Court and bearing
in mind the suits that are constantly heing
filed In connection with the old Dupont
street commission of 1876 that issued the
bonds no wants to sell out. Wright says
that all this litigation has a tendency to
make the bonds fiuctuate so that no one
knows what they are worth at any mo-
ment. So he asks the court to era Mt him
an order To aell.
