st. John, N. D., May 4.-The Indian
scare in this vicinity arose from the
fact that a number of indictments
have been returned In the United
States court against timber thieves
and when a deputy marshall arrested
one Of their number last week the
prisoner was rescued by the half
breeds. Twelve hundred cords OF
wood have been cut this winter ON un-
surveyed government lands, but most
of the depredations were committed
by Canadians who came across the
line for that express purpose. Six
hundred cords of wood are now at
st. Johns, being sold by a Frenchman
and it was TO find out the r~ingleaders
In the timber thieving that the indict-
ments were returned.
The Chippewas and Crees, of whom
Little Shell Is chief, have been want
ing to go on the warpath for some
time because one of their number was
killed some time ago by a Kentuckian
named Johnson, who was allowed to
escape unpublished. They are restrain
ell by Little Shell, however. Marshal
Cronin is now in the mountains to try
and get the indicted Indians to come
to Fargo AMI testify before a United
States commissioner, and IL he fails
to settle the matter peacefully, he will
take sufficient force to arrest the in
dicted ones, and, If necessary will
call out the troops at Fort Buford to

GRIFFIN JOHNSTON DEAD,
The Son of a Noted Southern
General Killed by a
Fall.
Passes Away From Hemorrhage of the
Brain at His Home in Los
Angeles.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Nov. 26.-Griffin
Johnston, the youngest son of the noted
Confederate general, Albert Sidney John
ston, died at his home in East Los An
geles last evening.
The circumstances surrounding the
young mans taking off were unusually
sad. He received a fall about week ago
which resulted in a hemorrhage of the
brain. He was discovered in an uncon-
scious condition by the police and re-
moved to the Receiving Hospital. John
ston did not recover consciousness for
several days, and death finally came to re-
lieve his suffering.
Johnston was extremely popular, and
had already acquired a reputation as a law
yer. He was liberal to a fault, as is the
case with many young men Of brilliant in
tellect-he was his own worst enemy. ;"
Mrs Johnston, who is a beautiful young
woman, is distracted with grief at the sad
misfortune which robbed their interesting
child of a father.

Moneys Withdrawn From

CYCLERs' CLUBHOUSE OPENED.
News of the Whereabouts of the
Missing Miss Owens Received.
Costly Liquor Cases.

SANTA ROSA, CAL, Nov. 26.-The
matter of where and how the County
Treasurer shall keep the money in his
possession was up for argument before
Judge Dougherty to-day on a petition for
writ of mandate compelling Treasurer
Woodward to produce in his office the
actual cash to be counted. The case was
submitted and taken under advisement.
District Attorney Seawell and Hon. 7.
J. Geary appeared for the petitioner, and
claimed that the law made it the duty of
the Treasurer to keep in his possession all
moneys belonging to the county and when
called upon by the examining officers to
produce these funds before them in actual
coin and that no part of the funds be certi-
ficates of deposit; that the law required
the counting of the moneys at least once
MONTH and that it did not require nor
permit any part of it to be paper or
evidences of debt They argued that the
law and public policy demanded that all
the moneys belonging to the county should
at all times be subject to the demands of
the Board OF Supervisors, and that the
special deposits permitted in section 81 of
tie county government act meant deposits
of sealed bags or boxes, which could be
produced and weighed or counted by the
examiners, and that in no case should the
moneys be permitted to be mingled with
the funds of bank or other depository
and thus become source of profit.
Treasurer Woodward was represented by
Judge Rutlege, a. B. Ware and A. G. Bur-
nett, who claimed that the Treasurer was
the legal custodian of all the county
moneys, and he and his bonds were
liable for them. It was argued that the
law gave him the right to make special de-
posts of these funds for safe-keeping, and
that it was discretionary with him to do so
or not; that he could not be controlled in
the exercise of that discretion; that the
law required the examining officers to
learn what moneys ought to be in the
treasury, and count what was actually in
the treasury, and their duty ends there;
that it would hazard the moneys to keep
them at all times in the county safe, and
if kept in bank vaults, in bags and boxes,
to be carried once a month or oftener to
the Treasurer's office and back would in
vite robbery and put unnecessary burden
upon the Treasurer, not contemplated by
law.
This matter is creating a good deal of
interest here, where the banks are an i'm
portant factor in the county elections, all
striving to become custodians of the Treas
ureT's money.

ADDRESSED BY DIR. JORDAN
Asse m5ied at the San Joaquin
MetrCp0TS

STOCKTON, CAL, Nov. 26.-To-day's
session of the San Joaquin Teachers In
stitute was we'll attended. The presence
of Professor Jordan of Stanford University
and other distinguished educators served
to attract many people other than teachers
to the Lafayette School, where the insti-
tute is being held.
At the morning session Miss Estella
Darrah of the Stanford University read a
paper on THE Teachings of Arithmetic"
The theme was handled in manner inter-
esting and entertaining. Alice Smallfield,
one of Stockton's primary grade teachers
spoke on "Model Lessons IN Phonics and
Primary Reading" She had several of
her pupils with her, and they demonstrated
the merit of the system advanced
Miss Darrah spoke again this afternoon,
her subject being Expression" The
speaker said that the pupils in the primary
grades were not taught to express them
selves as they feel, and accordingly when
high school graduates appeared at the
universities for examination they were
unable 10 pass the test.
State Superintendent OF Public instruc-
ton Black stated that this week fully 1900
teachers were assembled in different cities
discussing methods and means of impart-
ing knowledge to the young. He was glad
to see the spirit of fraternity which pre-
vailed between city and country teachers
here. The speaker was unstinted in his
praise of the country teachers, and de-
clared that their pupils as rule did them
great credit. He praised the work of Pro-
fessors Brown and Bailey of the State
University and that of Professor Barnes
of the Stanford University. The State
Superintendent cut short his speech to
give DR.. Jordan of the Stanford Univer-
sity the floor.
DR.. Jordan remarked that what ne had
to say was addressed to young men and
young women, and he would speak to
them as strongly as he knew how. His
advice to every young person was, go to
college," His address was full of encour-
agement to the teachers as we'll as sound
advice. Tonight, at the First Presby-
terrain Church, Dr. Jordan delivered an IL
Illustrated lecture on THE Passion Play"
as he witnessed it in Europe.

FRESNO SUPERVISORS SCORED.
advised by the Grand Jury to Use More
Discretion in Administering the
County Affairs.

FRESNO, CAL, Nov. 26.-The Grand
jury to-day made another partial report,
in which it pays particular attention to
the Board of Supervisors. 1t censures the
board for its alleged Illegal and careless
manner of allowing claims, and urges
upon the Supervisors the actual necessity
of conducting county affairs in the same
prudent and careful manner that they
would administer their private business.
The jury learned that over year ago a
committee of the board had been delegated
to sell a road-scraper The committee
disposed of it to one r. NJ. Turner for 500,
but there is no minute IN the books of the
clerk of the board that the money had
ever been paid. Another instance of care
less financial management is given. 1t
appears that during the first six months
of the current year the County Treasurer
had person hired to teach himself and
regular deputy the workings of the office,
which he entered last January. This third
person or Instructor was allowed $45
month out of the county funds. There is
no provision made for third deputy, nor
is he allowed one by law hence the allow
ance of $45 a month, the jury declares, was
clearly in conflict with the law.

WHAT SOUTH SIDE ASKS.
Another Effort to Be Made on
Behalf of Folsom

Line of Argument Which Is to Be
Presented to the Street Corn.
mittee Monday.

Another effort is to be made by the
Southside Improvement Club to have an
appropriation set aside for the bituminiz-
ing of Folsom street, when the Street Com
mittee of the Board of Supervisors meets
Monday.
The executive committee of the club met
at f. w. McEwen' S office, 118 Montgomery
street, last night and decided on plan of
action. There were present: G. L. Center,
G.. W. Owen, A. B. Mcguire, F. w. Nc
Even. R. E. Cole Captain J. J. Rafferty,,
J: B. Shay, W. f. Tillman, l. s. Schwartz,
DR.. T. A. Rottanzi, Joseph Kelly, Harvey
Somers George D. Shadburne, G. T.
Spader, Leon Samuels, J. ". Mcguire and
others.
As many of the executive committee as
can will be in attendance on the Street
Committee of the Board of Supervisors
Monday, armed with a resolution which
the committee adopted before adjourn
ment. The argument the resolution is TO
convey is substantially as follows:
That the last tax levy was the largest ever
made by San Francisco; that the people of the
South Side and the Mission have not been
properly recognized in the past; that this
district represents one half the Cftys
population and area and pays taxes on
about $50, 100000 assessed valuation, without
levy; that after 500, 600 has been set aside for
street sweeping and 100000 for other pur-
poses out OF the sum of S526, 800 to be devoted
10 the CitYs highways there viii still be about
$500 900 left; that 100000 of that 100000
ought to be devoted to the South Side and as
much OF it as necessary TO the illuminating OF
Folsom street
A. B. Mcguire reasons that as it would
not require all the 100000 to bituminize
Folsom street the remainder could be
used to pave Third. Fourth, Fifth, Sixth
and Seventh streets with bitumen from
ID arket to Folsom. Eighth street is to be
paved by the property-owners themselves.

FEAR THE GRAND JURY.
Officials Threatened Hith Exposure Seek
ing to Undo ass Investigation.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, Nov. ga des-
perate attempt is being made to save Frank
Lowry, the alleged embezzling Chief
Deputy County Clerk, from the peniten-
tiary. The Grand Jury met again to-day,
and the case of Lowry was resubmitted to
it. Judge Smiths ruling in allowing the
demurrer to the indictment complicated
matters, and many lawyers claim that
Lowry can now 90 free. The assertion is
made that, under section zoos of the Penal
Code, the present Grand Jury cannot
again consider Lowry's case, but that it
must go to new Grand Jury. The case
against Frank Cherry, the accused stenog-
rather, is similarly mixed.
The courthouse contingent is exerting
itself to have this Grand Jury declared
illegal. 1t is thought the Grand Jury will
make some startling revelations as to the
wanton extravaganza of the county gov
eminent. This report to tie people, show
ing how the money has wasted, interested
persons desire to suppress, and they seek
to accomplish the end in view by inyali-
dating the investigating body.
