Whether Peter c. Stanup. the Puyal-

an over jealous Indian policeman. or
whether he was accidentally drowned Is
a question / should like 10 have finally
determined. The Rev. Mr.. Mann, who
preached the funeral sermon over Peter

no doubt that he believed that Peter was
murdered. and I have always inclined to
that opinion. However, / am In receipt

A DEFUNCT CONCERN.

Trustees Compelled to Sell the Citizens'
Telephone Company.
ST. JOSEPH.-The plant OF the Citi-
zens' Telephone Company in this city will
be sold at the ca st front door of the Court
house, December z, 1896, by the United
States Trust Company of Kansas City,
under a deed of trust held by the latter.
In the sale will be included all the switch
boards, wires, poles, fixtures and belong
ings of the telephone company. The
United States Trust Com pany has had a
claim against the telephone company for
more than year, and took possession of
the plant several months ago as trustee.
In the. meantime the telephone company
has had all kinds of difficulties 10 en-
counter, and application has been made on
several occasions for receiver. The plant
has been kept out of the hands of re-
ceiver by the united efforts of the stock
holders and the United States Trust Com
pany. An application for receiver was
made by Daniel Ransom short time ago
on a claim transferred to him by the
Standard Underground Gable Company.
1t developed that the amount due the
cable company had been rendered, and a
receiver was denied. The United States
Trust Company was made defendant in
that action, as well as In several others.
The trust com pany holds 1000 bonds of 500
each, its claim against the telephone COM
pany amounting to 100000. The prop
erty will be sold to the highest bidder.

BURGLARS ARE
BUS|LY ENGAGED
Two Cases That Bear a
Close Resemblance to
Each Other.
Each Residence Entered Has a
Vacant House Adjoin-
ing 1t.
BOTH TH0RC UGHLY RANsACKED
In One Instance the F mily Was at
Dinner and In the Other the Occu.
pant Was Giving Lesson.
BOTH THOROUGHLY RANsACKED

The detectives are investigating two
cases of burglary within the past few
days, each having striking resem blance
to the other from the mode of entrance
and other points.
Tuesday evening about o'clock the
residence of James Gossip, SIG Ellis street,
ner, and the presence of the burglars was
not known till after dinner was finished
and they had made their escape.
The adjoining house, No. S1S, is vacant,
and the Key is in the grocery on the cor
ner of Ellis and Polk streets. Some one
called Tuesday afternoon to see the house
and had carelessly left the front door open.
The burglars entered the vacant house
and went upstsirs. In the rear of both
houses there is a window on both floors
with only the dividing wall between
them. The burglars had opened the rear
window on the Top floor of the vacant
house and reached over and opened the
rear window in Gossip's house, which was
unfastened. They were thus able to
crawl into the bedroom in Gossip's house
occupied by his daughter.
They thoroughly ransacked the room.
Bureau drawers were relieved of their con-
tents and all the jewelry in the jewel-box
was stolen. A purse containing large
number of old and foreign COINS was
stolen. The thieves were provided with
TOOLS as the lock of the iewel-box had
been picked.
After ransacking the bedroom they
went TO the front room. One OF the
bureau drawers only hai been opened and
ransacked, which has led to the belief that
the burglars had been frightened away.
What Mr.. Gossip mourns the loss of
more than anything else Is a valuable
five-pointed diamond star presented to
him in Halifax N. s., twenty-five years
ago by the lodge OF Free Masons of which
years. An inscription is upon it which
would make it easy of recognition.
The police were notified of the burglary

the dead and solemn courts of the East.
La Loie-that's what they call her-but
after one talks to her for a moment
sissy" GEMS about the most appropriate
thing to call her, so sisterly, jolly and
good-natured is she. La Loe, who arrived
in this City yesterday, is bound for China
under special engagement TO dance be-
fore the great Viceroy and few of the
most lofty goId-buttoned mandarins of
Mongolia.
When the marvellous, nimble- e-heeled
Miss Fuller first heaves her pillows of
skirt in the royal palace at Peking she
will have an audience of one, and that one
will be the most critical she has danced
be ore. 1t will be no less than the Dowaper
Empress of China, and this real ruler of
the Flowery Kingdom will then pass
upon the mystic movements that have set
the world TO whirIing with them.
When Ii Hung Chang was in New York
a few mon hs ago he met Miss Fuller, and
jacket, th-ee-eyeI peacock feathers and
all, and the result was an invitation
couched in LIS solemn French dictum to
put China on her list.
Her manager, Edward A. Stevens, ac-
companied the Viceroy to China and made
all arrangements for the few performances
to be given in Peking which will be ex-
ciusIvely before the celestial nabobs in
their palaces. Nothing lower than yell

and an investigation was made. The
marks of the burglars shoes were plainly
visible on the dust in the vacant house,
and the detectives came to the conclusion
that the shoes were either made in San
Quentin or the man had worn rubbers.
The residence of John Mckenzie, 524
Eddy street, was entered in the same way
and about the same hour of the evening a
week ago. Mr.. Mckenzie, who is a teacher
OF music, was giving pupil lesson at the
time. The burglars entered the upper part
OF the house and stole all the jewelry and
other articles they could lay their hands
upon.
The two adjoining houses are vacant and
the burglars effected an entrance to one of
the vacant houses, then they opened the
rear window and got access to McKensie's s
house.
The police are satisfied that the same
men com mitted both burglaries.

fered at reasonable rates. A new era has
dawned and the people are satisfied.
Referring to the Presidential campaign,
which was unequaled in this or possibly
any other county, much credit is due for
the grand showing OF the county to J. e.
Bull Jr. and o. G. Gregor, secretary ana
chairman of the Republican County Com
mittee, who were untiring in their efforts.
At the commencement of the campaign
the most enthusiastic and sanguine Re-
publican could only hope to cut down the
fusion majority OF 1450 votes of two years
ago. and as for carrying the county tor the
Republican party, that was considered an
utter impossibility. Nothing daunted
Bull or Gregor, who commenced a cam
paign and conducted it right UP to the
moment OF the closing of the polls on
election day, which resulted in a ma
jority of 700 votes for the Republican
ticket, the largest Humboldt ever gave
and a change OF over 2100 votes in two
short months.
Their organization was as near perfect
as could possibly be. Hundreds OF clubs
were organized under their manaqement
and direction, and by all honest means
known TO politicians they kept their clubs
night up 10 the highest points of enthu-
siasm. The most Isolated and sparseiy
settled sections of the country were care
fully watched, and 500 trusted Republi-
cans scattered throughout this district
were keeping up correspondence with
the managers which kept them thoroughly

Schmidt The election will take place at
the next monthly meeting, which Will
be held on Tuesday, Decem Der L.
Attorney Schmidt of the association
stated that the case of TeuXberry VS..
Jones, which WAS to have been tried in
Martinez last Friday, was postponed be-
cause of the inability of one of the attor-
neys for the prosecution to be present at
the time the case was set for trial. In all
probability the case will come up for a
hearing within the next few weeks.
The anne warden of this county will be
invited TO attend the next meeting and
give his views on the question of game
protection and what he has done relative
to the prosecution of game-dealers who
have sold game out of season.
A vote of thanks was passed to the
game wardens OF Alameda and Sacra-
mento counties for their efficient service
in the discharge of their respective duties.
The association Endorsed the appoint
ment of Alexander Vogelsang to the office
of Fish and Game Commissioner of this
State. The president stated he had every
reason to believe that Mr.. Vogelsang
wou not give his entire attention to the
fish side of the question.
