SMITHS $4,000.
Ex-Treasurer Smith viii Have to Give
up the College Funds,
The Supreme Court Decides That ]. W.
Stearns is the College Treasurer

From the Olympian we learn that the
supreme has affirmed the decision OF the
superior court of Pierce county in the
case of the State ex rel j. w. Stearns VS..
A. II. Smith. Smith was formerly a
regent of the Agricultural college and
was treasurer of the board. At the time
the senate at its last session refused to
confirm him as regent he was in possess
sion OF some $1,000 OF money belonging
to the college, which had been received
from the general government under the
Morrill, act.
j. w. Stearns vas nominated by the
governor as Il regent and was elected
treasurer of the board to succeed Smith.
Stearns' appointment was made after
the senate adjourned and hence the APP
pointment was not confirmed. Smith
claimed that because OF the latter fact
Stearns was not legally qualified to hold
the office and refused to turn the funds
over to him.
Stearns brought mandamus to the
supreme court but that tribunal decided
that Smith was not state officer in the
sense that term is used in the constitu-
tion, emitting action OF this nature
against state officers to be brought with
in the original jurisdiction OF the SUI
preme court and on demurrer dismissed
the writ.
Suit was then brought in the Pierce
county superior court and the decision
there was in favor of the state. On APP
peal TIE supreme court has now affirmed
the lower court and Mr.. Smith will be
called upon to turn the funds over to
Stearn3, who is declared to be the legal
incumbent of the Office OF regent and the
rightful treasurer OF the board.

The Glorious Fourth.

The patriotic and hospitable people Of
Guy have given an invitation to the Sun
day schools of this city to celebrate the
Fourth with them at Guy. The invita-
ton has been accepted by the Metho-
dist, Baptist and Christian schools, and
early in the morning a procession Of
thirty or forty large wagons, gay with
the emblem of our glory, and gorgeous
with bunting will make their way along
the beautiful slopes and emerald hills TO
the most beautiful grove near the little
city OF Guy. The drums will roll their
martial measures, and little hearts will
thrill responsive to their beat and a ga
lorious time will be had. Not least
among the attractions will be a bounti-
ful supply OF ice cream supplied by Guy,
and furnished free. If this wont make
the young patriots holler "Hooray -
"Hooray !" "Hooray !" nothing else will.
Frge rides, free speeches, free ice cream
and free fishing; what more can we ask?
Nothing, except that farmers bring in
their big four-horse wheat wagons and
haul the little ones out. Those who pre-
fer can go by train as the trains run just
right. Base ball in the afternoon. Come
everyone with baskets well filled.

Why They Voted.

The Tribune OF last week devoted the
bulk OF it's space to a TRADE against the
city council for awarding the city print
ing to the HERALD, and asks time and
again why they voted for this paper.
The councilmen answer the question by
saying that they voted for the HERALD
because its bid was the most advantage
Gus to the city. The Tribune accuses
the council OF fraud simply because said
council had the "temerity' to accept
another papers bid for doing the print
ing. The managers Of the gangs fake
sheet have perpetrated SO many frauds
upon the people that they suspicion
fraud in everyone's actions. They think
that by crying "fraud" they can distract
attention from their own direction. The
people are ION to you" dear gang.
Claude Priyett is in the city from
Colfax.

The gold miners OF Guy reached such
large boulders at depth OF nearly 40
feet in their mine that they could not
dig farther without much danger to
themselves, or heavy expense to insure
a degree OF safety, so the mine was aban-
doned for a time. In the same kind of
soil, just above boulders, just as they
found in the first hole they dug, they
found colors OF gold; sometimes as high
as eight colors to pan OF dirt. About
80 feet down they found pieces OF an old
tree and several indications OF a river
bed. People about here are enthusiastic
and full OF faith that gold mine of value
lies beneath the boulders. Another hole
will be dug very soon on a much larger
scale and with greater precautions OF
safety.

FLUEs NOT FIRES.
One Old Vacant stable nalne,

One Old Vacant Stable burned.
Again the burning fues have
brought out the fire department, pell

firemen and their horses considerable
trouble and unnecessary annoyance.
At $50 o'clock yesterday afternoon
Il burning fiue in the Langston resi-
idence, now occupied by Mr. j. A.
Faucette, on East Second avenue,
caused the alarm to be turned in
from that quarter, and all the fire
men had to do was to stand by and
watch smoke, ashes, and SCOT boil out
at the top OF the fiue for only n very
few minutes. The same occurrence
took place at the residence of Mr.. w.
l.. Dewoody, on West Fourth ave-
rue at Sis O'Clock last night.
Alta O'Clock this morning the fire.
men were called to witness the burn
ing of an old rieliety stable, remote
from any other buildings, on West
Pullen shreet. How the stable
caught fire it is not known, but very
little if any damage was done. We
again repeat that parties who turn
in the alarm for burning fiues should
be fined. None of them ever result
in !any damage, still the alarm is
tupne6 in invariably whom sneh ae
currences take place. In this CON
nection let us advise the residents OF
the city To take some paper, straw,
or something OF the kind, when the
next damp, rainy day occurs and
burn out all the flues. March winds
are now our visitors. Care and
watchfulness will prevent a great

Miss Annie Abbott

The little Georgia Magnet, Miss
Annie Abbott, gave an entertain
ment at the Opera-house last night
both interesting and amusing, Some
of the feats performed by her We're
simply wonderful, to attempt to ex-
plain which would be a complete
failure. EVERYBODY who attended was
we'll pleased with the entertainment.
She is undoubtedly possessed of
wonderful nerve force or power when
she is able to lift six, eight and ten
men from the floor and still not
bring any pressure to bear upon the
chair upon which the men were piled
in one great heap. Her manager
adds greatly to the entertainment
by assisting the little lady in her
pleasant performance During her
performance she attracts wonder,
sympathy and admiration. She has
winsome ways and is very courteous
and polite. She appears at the
Operaehouse tonight and everybody
should witness the performance.

4 Last night Chief Of Police, J A.
! Langford arrested colored girl,
! Flora Campbell, charged with the

to make the arrest is as follows; A
few evenings ago /, Mr.. Fred Fassler
called Mr.. Mike MeGlynn into his
shop (the Tom Green property and
showed him check for $36 and
asked him II il WITS good. Mike read
| 1t, saw tbs 1t WIS drawn in favor OF

by d. A. Carpenter, pension agent at
Knoxville. Tenn. Mike told Fossler
the check was as good az gold and
asked him where he got it. Fasslef
Informed him TINT he got ii from a
negro woman who claimed she had
found 1t. Nothing more was said
about the check until yesterday
evening Mike McGlynn read an
account OF the stolen check in the
GRAPHIC. He at once went to Fassler
and called his attention to the article
mentioned and advised him to inform
the officers about 1t. Both these
gentlemen eamenp town last night,
found Chief OF Police Langford and
told him about hecircumstances
The Chief then went to the negroes
house ON Second Avenue, arrested her
and brought her to police head
quarters. She had the check in her
Possession and when asked by the
officer where she got it she first said
she found it atHumble's saloon, then
said negro brakeman on the Val
ley road had given it to her These
two statements being contradictory
lead the officer to believe he could
compel the woman to tell where she
got the check, SO the Chief invited all
the other officers to vacate the room.
made IL confession as follows: She
said that she went To the pOst-ofiiee
and found nlock-box open containing
three letters. These she took home
with her and opened them and de-
stroyed everything by burning
except the check The woman then
took the cheek To Mr.. Fasslcr and
asked him to read it for her, she
being unable to read. Mr.. Fassler
told her he would keep it and find
out ii it was alright. When McGlynn
told him It was good he turned it
over to the negro and these two
gentlemen after seeing the loss of the |
check advertised in the GRAPHIC inn
mediately took steps towards
informing the officers as mentioned. |
