Judge Johnson Declines TO Remove
Receiver B. o. Schucking.
Superior Judge johnson yesterday de-
MED the motion of the defendant in the
suit of Paul r. G. Horst VS.. Elizabeth
Waldrum, for the removal of the receiver
in charge of defendants property.
Hiram W. Johnson, on behalf of Mrs.
Waldrum. asked that B. o. Schucking, the
receiver of the defendants property, be
removed on the ground that he is not an
uninterested person. and that he is not
acquainted enough in agricultural affairs
for the proper management of the estate.
1t was contended that Schucking is in the
employ of Horst, who has mortgage on
Mrs. Waldrum's property, and his ad-
ministration, if it was continued, would
not be beneficial to the defendant, but
detrimental.
Judge Johnson said that if he was ac-
quainted with the receivers knowledge
of agriculture at the time he was APP
pointed he would not have made the APP
pointment. He was sorry that he did SO,
but as the receiver has been appointed
some time he would not further compli-
cate matters by removing Schucking and
appointing another.

Mayor Steinman Orders Chief Drew to
Enforce the Ordinance.
Chief of Police Drew has been in-
structed by Mayor steinman to enforce
strictly the ordinance against obstructing
sidewalks. and he has instructed his Of
ficers to do so.
Many business men have been in the
habit of considering the sidewalk as their
private property and SO obstructing II
that people had hard work to get by their
places. This should be abolished, and as
the Mayor now says that all obstacles
must 60, it is probable that the ordinance
may be at last enforced.
There are a large number of show
windows that extend from two to four
feet out on the sidewalk, and their own
ers are very likely to have to remove
them. Citizens will wait with perhaps
more curiosity than hope to see the end
of it ali and whether the ordinance will
be enforced with strict impartiality.

But He Concluded That walking w az
the Quickest Way.
A well-known citizen met with an ad.
venture last night shortly after o'clock.
which reminds one of Mark Twain's de-
scription of his attempt to take passage
on the glacier and ride down into the
valley.
Wishing to 60 down town he walked to
Tenth street, intending to take car.
None was in sight, and sa a friend
came along, they engaged in converse
ton for a few minutes and parted. No
car had yet come in sight, but another
acquaintance came by and again he had
little confab.
AS the gentleman was in somewhat of a
hurry, when the other gentleman left
him, he looked at his watch and discov-
cred he had been standing there more
than fifteen minutes and concluded he
would walk toward X. not doubling that
a car would soon catch him. When he
turned the corner of Tenth and K, how
ever, he found car standing idly on the
track there. Another one was near
Eighth, another near Seventh, and the G.
street car had just turned on Seventh be-
fore it stopped. There was a short cir
cult, and not car on the line was NOV
ing. The gentleman says that the next

The Rascal Makes Another Attempt &c

Somebody seems bent on destroying by
hre-in whole or in part-the town Of
Gait, in this county.
There have been several incendiary
fires started there the past year, and q
few nights ago another attempt at arson
was made, when the storehouse Of Whit

A few weeks ago James Graham, pro-
prietor of the Commercial Hotel re-
ceived an anonymous letter warning him
that the writer thereof intended to burn
the hotel, and, for that matter, the whole
town. Not much attention was paid &c
the letter, but it begins to look as if the
writer meant what he said.
