HOUSE HOBART WILL OCCUPY
At Belmont, Where He Can See
Mount Vernon.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 22-Belmont
where Vice President Hobart will reside
after Mach 4, 1897, Is one of the most desira-
Dly located as we'll as elegant residences at
the national capital. 1t is situated on the
brow Of Fourteenth street hill, now known as
Columbia heights, and overlooks not only
the national capitol, but the surrounding
states Of Maryland and Virginia. From the
southern portico Of the house can be seen
Mount Vernon in the bend which the Potomac
river makes in front Of the former home Of
Washington. To the northeast of Belmont
is Calumet place, the home of Mrs John A.
Logan, who will be the nearest neighbor of the
Hoharts, and to the northwest is the coy res
idence OF Associate Justice Harlan, of the
United States supreme court. Due north of
Belmont about three blocks, stands the Chi
neSe legation.
Columbia heighths, upon which Belmont is
situated, is considered the most attractive
part of the suburbs of Washington. Bel
mont belongs to A. L. Barber, who made his
money handling Trinidad asphalt, with which
the streets of the national capital are paved.
1t is fully a quarter Of century since Mr..
Barber secured the ground upon which he
erected the residence shortly to be occupied
by the vice president-elect of the United
sidered the most eligibly situated in the vi
cintty Of Washington, and has frequently
been mentioned in connection with suburban
residence for the president of the United
States
During President Arthur's administration it
was suggested that the property be sold to the
United States for this purpose, but President
Arthur preferred the cottage at the Soldiers
home, where Abraham Lincoln had put in
some Of the pleasantest moments of his ad-
ministration. The property has not been oc-
cupied recently by its owner and his family
from the fact that they own country seat on
the Hudson river, and spend great deal of
their time in Europe. Senator Sherman was
interested with Mr.. Barber at the time he
purchased this property, and now owns half of
the lower portion of the grounds. Before he
struck it so rich in asphalt Mr.. Barber was
a clerk in the postoff1ce department, but when
he secured control of the Island of Trinidad,
where the asphalt beds are located, he quick
ly quit the service of the government
Vice President-elect Hobart had a number
of handsome residences offered him to make
a selection from, among them that Of
nue. formerly the home of Alexander Graham
Bell. of Telephone fame 1t was found, how
ever, by the Hobarts, that the Morton house
too large for their purposes.

TWELVE YEAR SENTENCE.
No Mercy From Judge BeIden for
Charles Hanson.

Charles Hanson, who pleaded guilty to as
saulting and robbing julius Bonicke, in the
Milwaukee yards last December, was brought
before Judge Belden yesterday afternoon
Bonicke, who was present in court was
sworn, and identified Hanson as the man.
Bonicke stated that there were two other
men with Hanson. They all grabbed him
and Hanson struck him the head and then
took his belt with the $500 in it. while the
other men took the So in change he had in
his trousers pocket as loose change The
old man said he had been struck twice and
showed the court an ugly scar on his head
which marked the place the blow was struck
After BOnicke told his story Hanson was
sworn, with the admonition from the court
to make short work of it, Hanson told
the court that the old man wanted "to STAY
over and see the town" Hanson declared
that every word the old man had sworn was
a lie. He was pretty drunk Hanson said
and the old man dropped his pocketbook on
the sidewalk, when Hanson had picked it up
and put it in his own pocket for safe keeping
The blow on the old mans head Hanson
sad, wasn't hard enough to hurt anybody.
IF your story is true, now" said the court.
why did you plead gui.ty?''
Hanson said that it was because he had
the old mans money.
Robbery is a dangerous thing for the peo-
pie robbed" said the court, land it will be
dangerous for the robbers. It is the sentence

WILL COME HOME.
Little Johnny Reynolds Is Finally
Located.

The whereabouts of little 11-year- old
Johnny Reynolds, who ran away from
his home In this city Nov. 9, are now
known. The boy has had a remarkable
experience. He left the home of his
mother, Mrs. Mary Reynolds, 11O3 East
Franklin avenue, on the date mention
ed and nothing was heard from him
until yesterday, when his mother re-
ceived a letter from George w. Sines,
farmer and constable at Cartwright
WIS.,, small town about 100 miles
from here on the Omaha fine. In this
letter was enclosed a letter from the
adventurous youth himself, giving a
detailed account of his travels, but ex-
pressing no pangs of inconsistencies or
other unpleasant sensations, which it
would be natural to expect that he
would feel after having been a lonely
wanderer for nearly four months.
The kind farmer at Cartwright states
that he took the boy in a little over
two months ago. and that while he was
bright and a willing helper about the
place, he would tell nothing about the
folks until confronted with newspa-
Ter clippings giving his description
Friends of Mrs. Reynolds have taken
the matter in charge and some one will
go down to Cartwright today and bring
little Johnny back home. Mr.. Sines
says that he wrote to police headquar-
lClS III tllS Guy, giving lull QeSCTlp-
ton of the boy, together with his name
and the fact that he lived in South
Minneapolis, but he received no reply.
Chief Smith, of the Minneapolis police
department, denies that he received
any such letter. however, and there
that portion of the matter rests.
Perhaps the most interesting thing
about the whole affair is the letter to
his mother by the boy himself. He is
an unconscious humorist and plunges
into the details at once. The follow
ing is an extract emitting a few errors
in composition naturally to be expected
from a boy of eleven years:
Dear Mother: When l left home l had
little money. l bought a ticket for Duluth.
There was a lot of logging fellers on the
train, and one of them was an Irishman
drank lots of whisky. So did the others.
There was only che man who didn't drink;
ne was asleep. | sat with him.
When | got to Duluth next morning l
walked around and was surprised to see such
a big town without any very big buildings,
and the lake is not much of a lake, either.
l went over to Superior in the afternoon
nothing to notice but saloons. Then l walked
on the railroad back to South Range. l
stayed with the station agent there. He
good 10 me. He had deer meat for break
fast, and at sinner we had deer meat and at
supper we had deer meat. l walked on to the
next station.
I found some more station agents that was
and got TO Spooner. There man gave me
a free ticket to the next station and then l
walked three days more to Cartwright where
Mr.. Sines took me in.

MURPHY PUT OUT.
He Lasted Only Six Rounds With
George Dixon,

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-George Dixon, cham
pion featherweight pugilist of the world de-
feated Australian Billy Murphy, of Cincin-
natl, in six rounds, tonight at the Broadway
Athletic club. Murphy, who arrived here
from the West a couple of days ago. was
trained rather fine and when he stripped the
general impression was that he would never
be able to go the stipulated rounds. Dixon
on the contrary, never looked in better form
and he was made pronounced favorite his
friends backing him literally at odds CT 2 to l
on. During the first half of the fight Muir
ply held his own. Whenever Dixon would
lead with the left Murphy invariably swung
his right the back of the head and also
sent home some good body blows, but at all
times he judged distance very poorly. Dixon's
double blow with the left puzzled Murphy
very much, and the colored boy landed it half
a dozen times during the contest From the
fourth round to the end of the fight Murphy
grew visibly weaker, but Dixon showed no
effects from Murphy's blows, and at the open
ing of the sixth round was by far the fresher
man. The blow which knocked Murphy out
was peculiar one. 1t was a left swing
combined with a kind of uppercut and the
butt of DiXon's left hand caught Murphy in
the pit of the stomach. It doubled Billy up
and he fell ON his hands and knees to the
floor, where he CROPPED about hopelessly until
he was counted out.
In preliminary bout Paddy Fenton Of
Boston, Knocked out Frank O'Neill colored of
Chicago, in the seventh round. Fenton forced
the lighting from beginning to end.

SCHEME OF SPAIN
For the Reforms in Cuba About
Ready to BE PROMULGATED

Ready TO he PrOmuI ga ted.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-The reform
scheme for the island Of Cuba has been
perfected by the Spanish government.
and it's PRONUNCIATION and application
is now a matter of but a. few days, I'M
less some untoward happening disturbs
ed tomorrow, however as was antici-
pated, from the fact that that day will
be the young kings Saint day.
While the details of the new scheme
are withheld from the public as vet,
Il is believed that their scope is known
to the president and to Secretary OIney,
and that in their opinion they embody
at least fair measure of reform prin-
ciples TO begin with. At present the
effort Of the Spanish government is to
make sure that the plan is acceptable
to all parties in Spain and on the
island OF Cuba, so as to avoid friction
in putting the reforms into effect and
to guarantee permanence for the sys-
tenn when once it is adopted The pro-
mitigation of the plan, it is thought.
will be accompanied, or closely followed
by the announcement of a general
amnesty extending not only to insur-
gents now in the field, who may under
the existing order Of Gen. WeyIer re-
ceive amnesty upon surrender to anv
Spanish commander, but also to per
sons imprisoned in Havana and other
Cuban towns and even in Ceuta. and
other penal settlements, providing that
the offenses charged against them are
purely political.

HANEY EN- ROUTE.
He Is Expected I'm the Mill City To-
day.

Haney will probably be in Minneapolis to-
day. The long contest at Normal is at an
end, and according to his agreement, the ex-
city clerk left that city yesterday on the
with Mrs. Haney, Rev. G. r. Palmer his
brother-in-law, and James H. Eye.
Haney is not feeling very well, but says
he will not remain in Minneapolis more tran
one day, as he is afraid of becoming pros
trated. He says he will go to New York in
company with his wife and sail for Mexico
to regain his health Haney will probably
be in Minneapolis by this noon. He claims
that he can clear himself and that he has
not tried to escape the officers but goes
willingly.
Haney's assertion that he will remain in
Minneapolis but one day either shows that
he is not fully conversant with the law
and practice il. criminal cases, or on the other
hand, that in spite Of his declaration that
he will clear himself he has resolved to go
before the grand jury and give up all he
knows in the aldermanic Investigations.
Haney, If he arrives today, will be ar
raigEed before Judge Belden, if he so de-
sires it, and there is little doubt but what
ne can secure bail bond fer himself. Judge
BelGen VIII without doubt fix the bail bond in
such sum as will guarantee the return of
Mr.. Haney to Minneapolis when he is want
ed, and as the county attorney will insist
upon speedy trial, there will be no time for
trips to Mexico for health. It is also very
doubtful If any one will be willing to go
bail for Mr.: Haney, knowing that he is on
his way to Mexico
tanning ali llllS lnIO consideration, 1t looks
very much as if his statement that he will
free himself" means that he will lay his
plans so that he can give his information
before the and july a~d thus If ee him3 e.f,''
so that he will be free to 20 to Mexico to re-
cupelate. Even If he should decide to tell
what he knows, there is nothing to prevent
the county attorney from keeping the present
indictment hanging over his head in order
to have him present when his testimony is
needed in court.
The whole matter hinges upon the size of
hoi1 IL e tai
no more than a $1,000 bail is asked, it is
claimed by the Investigators that Haney can
easily get It, with the direct understanding
that he is to jump it, and never appear
again.

ROAD RUN TO CHICAGO.
One of the Cycle Events for Min
neapOlis Riders Next june

Arrangements have been made by the Unit
ed Wheelmen's Club of Minneapolis for a
club run, to occur in June, that will be a
much more pretentious affair than anything
yet attempted In this part of the country.
Negotiations have been practically complet-
ed, and President F. H. Williams of the
club, says that the trip will certainly be
made.
The is to be from Minneapolis to Chi
cago, via the relay route, and it is expected
that the 500 miles wilt be covered in six days
Twenty five members CT the club have already
agreed to start in this event, and each mem
Der is required to put up cash guarantee
that he will be on the starting line ct an
appointed hour. A. A. Hansen will have
charge Of the race and act pilot. Hansen
rode to Minneapolis from Chicago after his
race down there last autumn, and he knows
the road well. Only male riders will be per-
mitted to start, and this fact has gwen rise
to some dissatisfaction among some of the
faster movers Of the feminine contingent
There is talk already of organizing a Chicago
road run for cycliennes, and Hansen has
agreed to act as guide for them after the
other affair has been pulled off.

SNOW Crushed the Roof

The roof of the Altman companys ware
house, Ala and 416 First street north, gave
way yesterday morning and precipitated
large amount of snow and ice upon the ma
chinery stored therein. The accident was
caused by the weight of the snow, which
had accumulated on the roof. At the time of
the accident there were several helpers in
affair. and one of them. Ole Selvig, was near
the center. He heard the first crash and lost
no time in sekeing the outside. No one was
injured, but several were badly scared. The
roof from the rear up to the Offices at the
front gave way. The amount of damage can
not at this time be given, but it is estimated
at several thousand dollars

to senate resolution, a long list Of
claims, preferred against the Spanish
government by the Competitor pris-
oners, was submitted by Secretary

instruct the minister at Madrid to re-
quest the captain general to observe
strictly the protocol in the trial Of the
American citizens found on board the
Competitor. With this request, Secre-
tary Olney complied Immediately, for
