The sergeant was afraid the snake was
going to call up headquarters and he
managed to hook 1t onto cane A box
was provided and the reptile was locked
up.
Attention was then turned to the far
mer. He had been watching the proceed
ings, but he was too full for utterance
He didn't even know how to spell his
own name; in fact, he was in doubt
whether he had any name; but Bernard
Seyfferth was finally put down. He might
as well have been a wooden man for all
the information obtained from him.
Up to 1 o'clock this morning he declined
to be interviewed, but persisted in lying
on the bottom of his cell with his head
under the bench. He is a middle-aged
man, shabbily dressed, and about five feet

When she was committed To the insane asylum the management of her prop crty was entrusted to Porter Ashc, q well known society man of San Fran cisco and supposed millionaire. He appears, however, through charges recently made, not only to have mis- managed the property entrusted in his keeping, but to have appropriated con- siderable of the same for his own use and made no accounting therefor. Tine charges against Ashe have been made by Thos H. Williams, Jr.. who has had Ashe relieved and himself ap- pointed temporary guardian.

 In 1890, Mrs. Mary E. Sawyer, of Saline county, Nebraska, by her attor- neys, A. G. Wolfenbarger and W. Hen " Smith, of Lincoln, brought suit for damages against several saloon. keepers for constantly supplying liquor to her inehriate husband, causing his death, thus depriving her and her minor chil- lren of needful support. The evidence produced at the trial showed that An irew J. Sawyer, the husband, was an honest, hardworking farmer when he began patronizing the saloons of the de- fendants in Crete; that he continued rinkilg until he became incapable of performing the necessary duties around is farm; that he would go on periodi- c,l sprees, of many days duration; that ,ue period of drunkenness would be speedily followed by another, until at last, in 1888 and 1889, by his reckless squandering of his property through lrink, he and his family were reduced to abject poverty, and friends and neigh DOTS assisted the mother and children with food and clothing to keep them from starving. The case was bitterly fought by prominent ex district judge md his associate on behalf of the liquor men, but the widows lawyers won g Judgment of sl,5o0 for her and tht 'hildren. The liquor men carried tht ;ase to the supreme court, where it Ina: oecn pending since 1892. Judge Nor disappeared for the saloon. keepers ant A. G. Wolfenbarger for the mother anc Ter children. A few days ago the cast vas decided in favor of the woman ant ter children, her lawyers winning th' ,ase on every point. This was the sec md judgment Mrs Sawyer had ob Cained against the saloonkeepers ii ' Urete the former one being for s700 md against other parties. The s7O' judgment was paid.-The Uniol Worker.

 In opening such discussion it will ire necessary, perhaps, to establish the act by proof, that the liquor traffic as it , now carried on, IS an evil. It Is hard y possible, however, that any reason .ble person could endorse the traffic in Il the phases which it presents at pres mt. And if the point is conceded that kere is need for reform in one partic- lar, the question of the best method of btaining the desired relief, is open.

NOT so HARD AS IT SEEMS.

The idea of being able to invent something strikes most people as being very difficult; this delusion the com pany wishes to dispel. It is the sim pie things and small inventions that make the greatest amount of money, and the complex ones are seldom prof itable. Almost everybody, at some time or another, conceives an idea, which, if patented, would probably be worth to him fortune. Unfortunate ly,such ideas arc usually dismissed without thought. The simple inven- tion like the car window which could be. easily slid up and down without breaking the passengers back, the sauce pan, the collar button, the nut lock, the bottle stopper, the snow shovel, are things that almost every one secs some way of improving upon, and it is these kind of inventions that bring the greatest returns to the all. thor.
 The prize we offer will be paid al the end of each month, whether the application has been acted upon by the Patent Office or not. Every competi. tor must apply for patent on his in vention through us, and whether ht secures the prize or not, the inventor will have q valuable patent.

FINED ron CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.
Drayman Toshnch VIII Appeal From
Police Court 10 Council.

Recorder Wilson imposed a fine Of S25
in a case Of cruelty 10 animals yesterday
morning. The charge was made agains,
james Toshach hy Omcer King OF the
Ocean Steamship police.
Mr.. Toshach has recently gone into
the drayage business. Among the mules
purchased by him was one with a sore
back. Policeman King stated that he no
ticed q negro driving this mule al the
steamship wharf. and reminded him sew
eral times that the mule was unit for
work. Tie saw the animal had a very sore
back, and noticed also that IL frequently
stumbled ana feu and seemed to work with
great difficulty. AS the mule continued
10 be worked he entered a case against
Ar. Ioshacu on the Information docket on
Ocr. 81. The mule died the next day.
lIr. I0slaCn claimed that he did not
know that the mule was afflicted with a
sore back ana that ii died from naturai
causes. Death he said. was caused by
lock1aW, as an examination after death
showed that there was a nail OF piece of
steel OF some kind driven some distance
in one Of the front feet which had evil
IDENTITY been there some time. The re-
c0rier seemed to think that Mr.. Toshach'
statement made the matter worse. and he
assessed fine OF $25 against him as a
warning 10 all owners of stock TO be more
careful In looking after the condition of
their stock. Alr. roshach gave bond, and

Tomorrow Morning.
st. Johns surpIce choir of men and
boys will sing its first service tomorrow
morning, accompanied on the new thirty
two-stop pipe organ by Prof. Spencer NJ.
White, the organist and choir master.
The growth of boy choirs of late years
has been phenomenal, although in the
southern cities it has not been as rapid
as elsewhere. presumably from the fact
that competent instructors have been
rare. In this respect Savannah is fortu-
White, who has had considerable expert
ence in boy choir training in some of the
largest churches in Pennsylvania. He GER
taluly has done wonders with the boys
in St Johns choir, considering the short
time he has had them under training.
The advent of a boy choir is of more
significance than would be at first sup
posed; il is a decided step forward in
music, and has invariably marked the be-
ginning of a brilliant musical era, aside
from being peculiarly adapted to the
beautiful ritual of the Episcopal church.
The large new pipe organ, built by Hook
* Hastings of Boston, Mass, will be
used at its first service tomorrow morn
ing.
TO much cannot be said in favor or
this beautiful instrument. It's power, reg
listers and voicing are perfect, its tone is
one of the sweetest We have ever heard
Competent critics pronounce II one of the
best instruments in the southern states.
The vestry of ST. Johns, together with
Mr. White, are to be complimented on
their wise selection. as well as the most
effective work they have done in finances
which have enabled them to procure II.
No less amount of praise is due to the St
Cecilia and st. Johns Rectory Society
Tor their valuable assistance.
