selling newspapers for the defend

him a good beating, when the boy,
who feared for his life, in fright
jumped out of the window and fell
some 80 feet to the ground, break
ing his left ankle and left wrist,
besides hurting his head so that he
has ever since been troubled in bis
mind. He sued for $4,000 dam.
ages. The defendants answer was
a general denial, but in an affidavit
for a continuance he explained that
Lee had been stealing newspapers
from him. The case lasted all day.
The jury found for the plaintiff FOL
$1,000.
+ Lee formerly lived in Mexico and
was a step-son of Al. Campbell.

Credit Due Vest.

From the st. Louis Republic.
Of course everybody is trying to
come in out of the wet, now the mat
ter is over with. 1t must be said,
however, that Senator Vest of Mis-
souri, is entitled to nearly all the
credit attached to the prevention of
ilibustering by the Democratic free
silver Senators. He opposed fiji.
clustering from start to finish and re-
manned in his seat all the time to
vote to make a quorum, when the
tiring-out process was attempted by
Mr.. Voorhees,, and it was Mr.. Vest
who to-day induced Messrs. Harris
and Pugh to cease further obstruc-
ton and permit a vote. 1t was Mr..
Vest who called the meeting in bis
committee room of the free coinage
Democratic Senators to get them to
pledge themselves not to filibuster.
Mr.. Vests own views on the question
are we'll known.
He is for free coinage of silver,
but is a thorough believer in the
right of the majority to rule, after
thorough and adequate debate on
any bill has been had. Mr.. Vest is
now convinced that the rules OF the
Senate must be SO altered as to
provide machinery for reaching a
vote. Up to this time the Missouri
Senator has been opposed to 6
closure, but he has become convinc'
ed that the tendency toward flibus.
tering has become so strong that the
Senate, in order to maintain its OWE
self respect, dignity and strength
must embody in its rules a pro
vision by which a vote can be reach
ed. and the will of the majority
registered. This viii probably b
the next contest in the Senate wher
the pending measure is disposed of.

Exposition Oh Wheels.
THE LEAK INTRODUCING COM.
PANY WILL VISIT MEXICO IN
A SPECIAL CAR.
The Public Is Cordially Invited to Call
and Examine the Elegant Display
OF California Fruits, Etc.

Leaks introducing cars will be
in Mexico Friday aid Saturday,
Oct. 81 and %, and a cordial invita-
ton is extended to the people of
Mexico and Audrain county to call
and examine this exposition on
wheels. The Iowa City (Io.) Daily
Citizen, referring to this matter in
a column article, says:
Last evening long before Leaks
Introducing Cos. Cars were thrown
open a crowd had asse nbled await
ing the opening hour.
At about 7 O'Clock the engineer
touched a lever and hundreds of
incandeseent lights were all aglow,
filling the cars with their searching
rays and giving them the appear
ance of rolling palaces. When in
response to an invitation a Citizens
representative visited the cars he
expected to find the usual advertis-
ing cars which have visited this
city-two rickety baggage cars con-
tanning a few cans of California
fruits, a few sacks of grain and
some photographs of the famous
trees of that state. Far from this
is the Leak Introducing Company
Exposition for its display of goods,
although not quantity, in quality
approaches the dignity of a county
exposition on wheels.
The cars are built of California
wood finished with the famous red
cedar of that state, having been
finished on the fourth of July two
years ago. 1t was the original pur-
pose of the company only to adj
~vertise the Leak Grove Manufactur-
ing Company and Placer county
from which all of the fruit exhibit
comes from. The expense of rum
ming the cars, $4,000 per month,
was found to be too great for those
companies to bear and Manager
Leak easily induced a number of
| other business houses to embark in
the enterprise, until now twenty
different firms have exhibits on the
cars, representing several million
dollars of capital. These houses
besides paying for space on the cars
have high salaried representatives
who visit the merchants of the
cities, where the cars stop, solicit
ing trade as other travelling men.
The entire exhibit is in charge of
Manager Leak, the originator of the
scheme. He is not only a very
pleasant gentleman but is a bust
ness man whose extraordinary tai
ent is coming him money.
A walk through Mr.. Leaks cars
was indeed a pleasure. Those who
attend the Worlds Fair need not
expect to see larger or more beauti-
full specimens of California worlds
renowned fruit. Peaches, plums,
grapes of most increditable size and
pears which actually weigh 4 pounds
each are on exhibition.
The cars not only serve as a place
of business for the manager and his
force of travelling men but by touch
ing a few buttons the carr a be
turned into either a dining car or an
elegant sleeping apartment. In other
words the cars are equipped with all
the accommodations of a modern
sleeping and dining car.
