PUT OFF AGAIN.
The Trial of Conway and Layne
Continued. Until the. May Term
at the Request of the
defendants EEysr%t


Defendants. ~
Monday afternoon Hughes Bros, at
torneys for VIM. Conway and J. E
Layne, asked that the trial of these
men be postponed until the May term
of court, as they were not fully pre-
pared to go on at the present time.
County Attorney Benedict opposed
the request, as the state was prepared
for the trial, and he thought the de-
Tense had had plenty of time. The
court decided to grant the request,
and the trial will not take place
until Nav.
The last civil case to be tried at the
present term of court was commenced
this forenoon. 1t is the suit of @. G..
Anderson, of this city, against the
Winoua & St. Peter Railway Co., to
recover $1,000 damages for alleged
improper manner Of ejectment from
train and for assault and battery.
The plaintiff alleges that he entered
caboose on a freight train at st.
Peter Aug. 10th last, to ride to this
city. He had no permit to ride on a
freight train, and the conductor
forced him to get off while the train
was moving. He also alleges that the
conductor assaulted and beat him.
w. n. Plymat is his attorney, and w.
D. Abbott, of Winona, appears for
the railroad. 1t is expected that this
case will be completed tomorrow
morning.
The trial Of the suit Of the Reading
Stove Works and o. w. Painter & Co.
VS.. Weis & Thissen was completed
Saturday afternoon, and the jury
brought in verdict for the plaintiffs
this morning for 500. The plaintiffs
had asked for nearly 500, while the
defendants had put in counter claims
for about the same amount. A stay
of judgment was taken.
Judge Severance has promised
Judge Start, Of Winona, that he
would go there and assist him Feb
ruary 26th. Court will probably
adjourn tomorrow.

Caldwell, of LeSueur. The sheriff
levied on some property on an execu-
tion against Lewis Kalbow, and the

for the defendant.

Indianapolis Capital i'm Colorado.

Western Colorado is now furnishing the
most profitable fields for the gold hunters.
Goose creek bids fair to surpass In rich
ness of ore the much-talked-of Cripple
creek. Goose creek is situated in Gunni-
son county, near the west end of the gold
belt, is thirty miles long and five miles
wide, and begins just south OF the city
of Gunnison. There are now 100 gold
claims being worked. The free milling ore
varies a great deal in value, some of it be-
ing classed with high-grade ores, and be-
speak a great future for this new gold
producing district. More than one thou
sand miners are at work in this camp,
and many valuable lodges have been
opened. In another year the gold camps
at Spencer and Dubois will be employing
thousands of men. The Denver Mining
Record of June Ia says: ''The new town
of Spencer, in the Goose creek district,
seems to be the center of attraction in
that camp. A Crede man offered to bet
a large sum of money the other day that
he could show a claim within one mile of
Spencer that would assay $500 or better.
The pile put up has not been covered at
this writing" Five gold claims now be-
ing developed at Spencer are partly owned
by indianapolis men. The five claims will
be incorporated under the laws of Col
Orado this week.

BRIGHTwooD GoBBLED 1T.
Trustee Gold Says the Town Has Cap
tured One of His SchoOlhouses.

Township Trustee Gold has refused to
give a deed for a schoolhouse and grounds
in the northeastern part of B~rightwood to
that suburb. This property is situated in
a plat that was annexed to Brightwood
some time ago. Brightwood did this under
an act of the last Legislature. After the
plat had been annexed the B~rightwood cit
liens used the school for their children, and
the township trustee is protesting very
hard thereat. The Schoolhouse in question
was built by the township trustee on
ground also obtained by that individual.
Last year $1,000 was spent in improvements
under the supervision of the trustee. AS
B~rightwood was not an Incorporated town
up TO that time the trustee claims that, as
the citizens of that suburb paid no taxes
towards this Improvement, they are not
entitled to the use OF it.
The township trustee alleges that Bright
wood waited until all the Improvements
were made and then annexed the plat con-
tanning the Schoolhouse simply to obtain
school advantages without causing any ex-
pense. He has been asked a number of
times to deed the property in question over
TO the town, but he has as many times re-
fused. He says that he will contest the
matter in court If necessary. The Bright
wood citizens claim that as the tow was
built up around the school it geographical
ly belonged to Ii.

WANT SUPERINTENDENT JONES.
Cleveland Seeking a Good Man for Her
Schools.

There Is a probability that Lewis H.
Jones, superintendent of the public schools
OF this city, will receive an offer of a like
position of Cleveland. The SUPPLEMENTARY
OF the public schools Of Cleveland pays
5000 a year, while the salary of the same
position Of this city is $500. The Board
Of School Commissioners of Cleveland held
a meeting Monday night and considered
the question of making the offer to SUI
perintendent Jones'. Mr.. Jones was not in
Cleveland, and it is not known If he has
received any word OF the offer or decided
TO accept Ii If he mas.
Mr. Jones has been superintendent of the
public schools Of this city for nine years.
Twenty years ago he was at the State
Normal School at Terre Haute. He came
TO this city and accepted a position as
reading teacher in the public schools. Later
he returned to the State Normal School as
principal Of that institution, and remained
there until he accepted his present posi-
tion- Mr. Jones left this city several days
ago to visit the public schools of several
large Western cities at the request of the
School Board. At present he is in Chi
cagO, following out his mission.

President wiIdman returns.

President Wildman. Of the Board of
Public Works. returned home yesterday.
He says the streets of Indianapolis are
the equal of streets anywhere and far
ahead of the streets in some other citias.
He a. the competition which has been
brought into the bids for streets here has
resulted in cheapening the cost to the city
this he cites the price at which the con-
tract for Dougherty street was let on
Monday. This street was let at So. 49,, while
early in the spring the contract for ex-
actly the same kind of pavement upon
Home avenue was let for 1888 to the same
company. The adoption of specifications
residence streets instead of a six-inch
base has led to the cheapening of the
cost of the pavements also. The four
inch base is thought to be sufficient for
residence streets.

WILL WEAR GILT STARS.
Sanitary Officers Granted the Priv
flege-SmaIIpOx Bills.

Representations Bills.
The Board of Safety took it back and
now the sanitary officers may wear their
pretty gilt badges, although they are the
same in shape as those worn by the city
patrolmen. For years past the sanitary off,
GERS have worn a star-shaped badge made
of nickel. exactly like the badges worn by
the patrolmen, with the. exception that the
word sanitary" appeared upon them
across the center. Recently the Board of
Health decided to uniform the sanitary
officers, and adopted a double-breasted sack
coat and straw hats as the uniform till
October, after which date the straw hats
will be exchanged for SLOUGH hats. To dis
tingufsh the officers the more readily from
the patrolmen the board decided TO have
gilt badges made for their officers. Within
a very few days the Board of Safety took
cognizance of this fact, and animated that
it would order the sanitary inspectors to
discard their stars and wear shields in
stead. The sanitary officers, who had been
to the expense of purchasing the star
badges, did not like this action. They are
all of the opinion that Clerk Herrick, of the
Board of Safety. is solely responsible for
the order of the board that the stars be
discontinued.
Yesterday the Safety Board spent nearly
an hour discussing the question of the
shape OF the badges it should permit the
sanitary officers to wear. In marked con-
trast to the dignity of the board were the
commissions of Mayor Denny, who was pres
ent and seemed to be highly amused at the
seriousness with which the board heard
arguments against prohibiting the star for
the Health Board. DIR. carp, secretary of
the Health Board, was present and insisted
that the sanitary officers had a perfect
-E-LA - eNnH- sid Ill
said the wearing of the stars would lead TO
confusion, and the sanitary officers would
sometimes be called upon to perform the
duty OF a patrolman by persons who did
not recognize the difference. Suppose they
are" answered DR.. carp: "let them do the
work. They have police powers and are a
part OF the police system" After consider
able time had been spent in this sort OF
argument back and forth, the Safety Board
decided 10 rescind its first order and per-
NIT the health officers 10 wear the gilt
stars.
