BAUER CLOSED TIGHT
Guy B. Barham Says That He Will Not
Resign


Guy B. Barham Says That He Will Not
Resign
Contrary to genera! expectation the
Horseshoe saloon was not open for busi-
ness yesterday. City Clerk Charles I.ucK-
cnbach personally visited the ground
yesterday afternoon and again late last
evening, to see for himsel whether or
not Thco Bauer was conducting his place
without q license, as had been openly
threatened by some of his closest friends
would be done. Upon both occasions
the city clerk found the doors of the
place locked tight.
Police Commissioner Guy B. Barham
has returned from San Francisco, after an
absence from the city of nearly month.
He was very much surprised, he informed
Herald reporter yesterday,a at the anony-
nous statements that he intended to ie.
sign. II shall be in my seat as usual
W hen the board convenes on Tuesday
here when action was taken upon the
Bauer license 1 should certainly have
voted with the maj jori,y uf my colleagues
in the matter. The revocation of the Ii
cense came, as l understand it, as per-
emptory demand of the council. and
obey instructions. You can say for me
that 1 have no intention of resigning
from the board at the present Time"
Bauer visited Barham early in the day
yesterday at the latter's office, but the
big Alsatian received but little comfort
out of his call.
City Clerk Luckenbach was very much
afraid that an attempt would be made to
reopen the Horseshoe after offic hours
last evening. in which event Bauer would
have been summariiy jailed. Lucken-
bach states that he will keep on arresting
Bauer continuously several times day,
should the latter attempt to do business
without license.

GEN. CASSIUS M. CLAY
Mrs. Spring Of sespe Writes Of This Noted
Character

Mrs. Spring Of sespe Writes of This Noted
Character
Mrs. Rebecca Is. Spring of Sespe sends
the folloYing to The Herald regarding
General Cassius NJ. Clay. sketch of
whom was recently published in this
paper:
SESPE, Nov. 12, 1895.
General Cassius M. Clay has Just given
$500 to Berea college. When Rev. J. O..
Fee was maltreated and driven by mob
violence from the place where he was
preaching and teaching col0red people,
Cassius Clay gave him land for home and
school. This has grown into an import
ant college, where students are admitted
without regard to sex or color. General
Clay has sent me his Memoirs. 1t is an
interesting history of IAN eventful roman"
tic life. In his early years, though under
strong slavery influence, he saw its
injustice, and at the risk of his
life, opposed it, The mob destroyed
his printing press advocating free speech {;
they broke his breast bone and for time
q lisa bled him. When messages came tell
ing of the bloody purposes of the mob
and urging him to give up ad dvocatng free
dom of the press, his noble mother saiu /:
"Cassius. don't give up. anything. you
think it your duty to Defend" After
ward she wrote to him, and while caution
ing him to bs careful and not give his
enemies any excuse for taxing advantage
of him, she wrote, eff you prefer death
to dishonor, SO 90 - He has stood firm
to his early convictions and refused a
general = commission in the union army.
while they were fighting with the sword
in ono hand and the shackles of the slave
in the other" But after the procla ma
tion of emancipation he touk his place
as general in the union army and helped
lead on to victory.
General Clay is very happy in his new
marriage. He has a splendid home,
with lawn, garden, forest and meadows
where he keeps Southuown sheep.
Though the lnjurits he received from the
mob still trouble him, he writes me he
expects TO live to be q hundred years old.
1t is to be hoped he will live long
enough to become the champion Of rights
he has not vet. seen. Though he has
