Quite a sensation was sprung in cir.
cult court in Butte county recently by
the discovery that during the trial Of the
Giles murder case, the bailitf had been
furnishing the jurors with whisky. Or
Iaudo Giles was murdered over a year
ago and a man named Dawson and Mrs.
Giles we're indicted for the murder.
Dawson was tried first, convicted and
sentenced to the peniteutiary for life.
During the trial of Mrs. Giles the above
discovery was made, which will doubt
less result in getting a new trial for
Dawson. Judge Plowman presided
over the court and his Indignation was
great. He summoned the bailitf who
admitted the charge and sentenced him
to ten days in jail for contempt Of court,
The Judge said while giving vent to his
displeasure, "the saloons not content to
run in open violation of the laws Of the
state, invade the precincts OF the court
with their nefarious schemes" Judge
Plowman has sent to Deadwood for
blank injunctions, which he will sign
and have every saloon in Belle Fourche
closed until after court adjourns.

COUNCIL BEUFFS, Ia. July l5.-The
collapse of an artificial reservoir con-
tanning a large quantity of water, at
the corner OF Main and Sixth streets,
destroyed considerable property and
probably fatally injured J.. A. kellar,
an engineer. The theory advanced by
some members of the fire department is
that the constant jarrlng of the engines
and, perhaps, the movement OF the
water gradually weakened the walls of
the building.
At noon the >neighbors for q block

found that the walls of the engine

lay with hardly one brick on top OF
another. The roof had caved in and
the reservoir vas pouring out its con.
tents in a flood. So suddenly did the
crash come that Engineer Kellar did
not have time to get out. A big iron
pipe fe in such a way as to make
sort of archway over him. He was
nearly drowned by the flood. Hi:

The question whether real kissing il

The actress Frau Leuthold, a married
lady, allowed herself to be kissed as re-

the eleventh evening she declared that
her husband had forbidden real kissing.
| When the scene came on again, she held
both her hands before her face, and the
actor forcibly took them away to i'm

IS NOT A CANDIDATE
Sherman Declares He Doesn't
Want the Presidential
Nomination.
NO LACK OF GOOD TIMBER.
Tariff and Finance, He Says,
viii Be the Issues OF the
Campaign.

CHICAGO, July lG.-A Times Herald
special from Mansfield, O., says: Sem
ator John Sherman was seen at his
residence Saturday and his views
asked on presidential politics. He said
he was not a candidate and added:
.If all the people Of the United
States should join together and offer it
to me l would not accept the position.
l am too old. No man OF 70 has the
right to undertake the work and the
responsibility which come to the chief
executive of the United States. 1t is q
position of wear and tear and it should
have a younger man.
No Lack Of Candidates.
1--WE don't lack good candidates.
There is Reed Of Maine. His ability is
beyond question, and he would be
acceptable to the Republican party; his
locality is against him, however. There
is Mckinley; he is an able man and
would make a good candidate. He
will, l believe, have the support OF
Ohio, and l would like to 9 him
nominated. Going further West we
find Senator Allison. He is a sound
man and has Il good record. He would
make a good candidate and a good
president"
Issues of the Campaign.
The issues of the next campaign, the
senator said, will be the tariff and
financial question.
Twill the Republican party ever es'
pouse the cause Of a double standard?'
asked the reporter.
Il think not" replied Senator Sher'
man. "You cannot have two standards
as money, You may have gold and
you may have silver, but you cannot
have both as standards. At the pres
ent value and f~luctuation of silver
don't think there is any danger of the
people choosing it as u standard"

New York Tailors Not to Strike for .

NEW YORK, July 16.-Besides being q
fight for Is per cent advance in wages,
the coming tailors' strike will be a
war ON sweat shops. This was decided
on by the executive board of the Broth
erhood of Tailors. They will endeavor
to do away with sweating in all its
phases, both in New York and Brook
Ign. Last summer tailors involved all
their forces against sweating. For sew
eral months the bosses were in a de-
moralized condition, but when they
commenced to make money the sweat
ing system, that was thought dead for
good, revived.

Count visone, . Trusted Dipiomatist. In
an Ugly Card Scandal.
French and Italian newspapers have
been referring mysteriously this week to
a new card scandal in Rome. The Of
fender is Count Visone, son of a former
minister of the royal household and for
some time past secretary Of the Italian
embassy in Berlin. He went to Rome
on a visit last week, and as usual spent
q good deal of time at the Mobiles club.
where play runs high. One evening the
count lost Is, 900 francs and nonchal-
antly drew a check on his Berlin bank
ers for 25, 900 francs, which he handed
to the club steward, saying:
"Pay Is, 900 francs to these gentle
men and give me the difference.
This was done. The count paid sew.
eral other visits to the club, but the day
before the check was due back from
Berlin he vanished. 1t turned out that
his account at his Berlin bankers
amounted exactly to SO francs, and the
check was Of course d~ishonored.
The affair caused a great stir at the
foreign Office, for Count Visone was a
trusted diplomat, who only recently, for
over three months, acted as charge d 'af-
flares at Berlin. Baron Blanc, the for
eign minister, Immediately dismissed
the count from the diplomatic service,
and it is hoped that the scandal will
soon be forgotten, but this is not like

ITALIAN
General Meeting Will Be Held Next
Monday Night.

There was a meeting of the
Italian committee, having in hand
the arrangements for the celebra-
ton of Columbus Day, at Battag-
lia's store, on Main plaza, last
night. The committee made a
slight, change in it's fireworks con-
tract, by which the fireworks will
be purchased of one man instead
of two. This man is an expert
italian p~yrotechnist and will be-
gin work on the contract at once.
After it was reported that the
city council had granted the use of
the Springs park for the celebra-
ton, the committee on fireworks
reported. There will be day and
night fireworks each day and the
set pieces will consist of "The
Battle of the Alamo" Columbus
and His Ship" an elephant, a pea.
cock, and the "Arch of Porta Pia."
Other pieces will consist OF
bombs, rockets, cannons, shells,
and pieces representing different
animals. A feature will be the
throwing of 15-pound dynamite OIL
powder shells to a height of 1900
feet, in both day and night fire,
works.
The privileges for the celebration
will be sold in a few days. During
the celebration both halls will be
used for dancing purposes.
The grand street parade has not
yet been decided upon.
The date of the general meeting
of Italians for the celebration has

ing will be held at Convention

Our City Gardeners.

To the LIGHT.
Your article in Sundays LIGHT
induced me to make some in.
quiries regarding the management
of the city parks and their past and
present management. 7 find that
the charges your correspondent
"Crocus" in the article something
About our Parks" makes, are not
only true, but they are mildly put.
The beautiful hot or green house
at San Pedro springs, that was the
joy of all and Of ex-Park Commits
sioner Hettler, and of his thorough
fioriculturist and Expert Andreas
Schmidt, is a complete ruin. Our
committee on parks, etc., let Mr..
Madarasz, who had a private
nursery, take the advantage Of
their ignorance, and the spirit of
speculation superseded that OF
utility. Madarasz and the present
park commissioner sold and sell to
the city, the PLANTS the city may
need, and the city having been
duped accepts their goods without
question or cavil rather than let
the public know that the very
elegant and productive dollhouse
at the San Pedro springs is an
abandoned ruin and that the pres
emit administration will allow itself
to be mulctsd a good deal rather
than refer to any beneficial act Of
Bryan Callaghan's regime. Mr..
Hettler, and as far as that is con-
cerned, also his experienced gar.
dener Mr.. Schmidt, not only raised
all the plants-now so dearly
bought by the city-for the parks,
but had enough for a large number
Of free distributions. That there
was no money for the park com.
missioner or gardener on free dis.
tribution outside of their salaries
was a matter to be discountenanc'
ed by their successors, who since
they cost the city from $500 to $500
more per year with private
nurseries, have no right to kick il
they are shown up by a
CITIZEN.
