Another Set of Brighton Gaming
Cases Disposed of.

Yesterday there were brought be-
fore Justice Samuel G. Foster of
Brighton four Cinnamon, Lon Jun, Su
Gang, Gong Sam and Hah Mcen, ar
rested on the complaint Of Constable
F. L. Warren for playing the game of
tan at Menke's hop ranch.
The Constable having failed to con-
Wet some Cinnamon a few days ago for
conducting the game of tan at Hang
town Crossing, concluded to do little
detective work in order to make a con-
viction of some of Menke's hop pickers.
He disguised himself in set of false
Whiskers and a tramp costume and en-
ployed a couple of young fellows who
work on the ranch to proceed to the
Chinamen's cabin on Menke's ranch.
The raid was successful and he cap
tured four heathenS whom he found
around table playing some Chinese
game which he assumed was the pro-
hibited tan game. When he came into
court yesterday afternoon he found w.
"A. Anderson present as counsel for the
accused.
The Constable introduced a number
of witnesses to show that the defend
ants were occupied III playing a game
with buttons and a stick, but failed to
convince Justice Foster that it was the
game of tan. Judge Foster said that
some unlawful game must have been
conducted in order to warrant con-
viction. and that there was certainly
doubt in this case whether the game or
acts of the defendants came within the
prohibitory clause Of Section $50 of the
Penal Code.
The defendants were thereupon dis
charged

Political parties have adopted resolu-

remained for one man hailing from

undivided support in Mr. Johnson's
behalf and return him to Congress to
carry into effect the good work already
begun by him.

Dynamite Magazine Exploded.

A sorting magazine, nitro glycerine
and other high grade explosives, locat-
ed two miles northwest of Johnsonburg,
exploded Saturday afternoon. Lewis
Stewart and Peter Donahue were torn
TO pieces by the awful explosion. A
dispatch from Johnsonburg says:
''Two men and two teams were in
range of the tear-up when the several
tons Of stuff exploded and there has not
enough been found of the men to identify
them: only scattered bits Of flesh here
and there through the woods. The
teams were as completely wiped out of
existence, only parts of the harness be-
ing found where they were caught in
branches and tops Of trees. OF the
wagons there has been one broken wheel
and part of one axle found, and at the
place where the magazine stood there
Is nothing left OF 1t and a great hole In
the earth markes its former location.
The shock of the explosion caused
great excitement at JohnsOnburg.
Heavy glass windows In the Armstrong
hotel fell with sudden crash into many
pieces, as though they had been struck
with batteringram, and the windows
of many stores and private houses went
the same way. Men rushed out of their
places of business into the streets and
women and children ran terrified from
their homes, some of them thinking the
last call had come. Others thought
there had been an explosion at the
paper mill and many eyes were turned
that way to see II disaster had not be fal-
len the hundYeds OF hands employed
within those walls. The eruption
seemed to be in the very midst OF the

Officer Patchell and turned over to Post
master Daley this morning for tamper-

boy went to the Commercial hotel let
ter box and took letter out. He went
again this morning and took two others
and was caught. There are two stories
as to how he obtained access to the box.
One is that he was told the combination
by person at Reynoldsville and an
other is that the combination was left
on after the box had been opened, The
Offense with which the boy is charged
is serious one. He is about twelve
years of age.-DuBois Erpress, Nov. IL.

"Nigger in the Fence"

1t was mentioned in this paper last
week that Martin McGregor, of Lindsey,
had been lodged in the county Jail for
trying to bribe nephew to set fire to a
mill owned by Mr. McGregor, on which
he had $1,000 insurance. We have
since been reliably informed that Mr..
McGregor and his nephew, who accused
him of proposed arson, have been
enemies for over year. This being
the case, it would look as If there was
