Judge william II. Reid is an enthusl-
astic believer in lead and galena mines.

pective increase TO IL cents, az proposed

leading producers. and in the future will
no doubt be second 10 none In the United

REV. FRANCIS GOODWIN.
One Of Hartford's Most Prominent
Citizens Now in Seattle.

Rev. Francis Goodwin. a retired clergy

evil surroundings. He is president OF the
board OF trustees of the Farm School and
Juvenile Asylum, of Hartford and exer
cises a general supervision OF the work or

AT the Rainier-Grand hotel last night he
said: I'VE have nothing 10 do with the
criminal classes. but try 10 protect those
who are in danger of becoming a part of
that element. The farm Is 30 acres In ex-
tent, and twenty-five or thirty pupils are
taught trade besides being well ground

can Go so. The advantages of the insu-
tuition are so great indeed, that parents

the lives OF those who apply for admission
and II we find that they have friends who
can care for them they are rejected.

made with the assurance that the nee

Talk about the hot weather. but that can t
hold a candle to the amount of heat produced
by the contestants and their friends who are
interested in the popular bicycle contest at
the Shenandoah drug store. 1t is so hot and
the interest is so great that the proprietor is
compelled to purchase an additional supply
of ice each day to keep the lactated beverages
from turning sour behind the counter. Miss
Clara Whtelock, who led the race for two
days, has fallen back to second place, with
2,644 votes while Ambrose TOole heads the
list again with 1857 votes. The tide will be
turned on him by Monday again. Miss Nc
Menamin and John Conville are engaged in
a tug of war contest for third place, while
Miss Margaret Maley and DR.. Stein are hold
ing the fort for fourth place. Undismayed
by the large number of votes polled by the
above contestants many of those further
down on the bulletin board are still sending
in many votes, Miss Name Reilly was
credited with 400 votes yesterday, giving her
a total Of 991, which assigns her to seventh
place. The more the merrier.

Hot lunch on Monday morning.


A case which occupied considerable of
Justice Toomey's leisure time was enacted in
his court room last evening. The plaintiff
in the case is Rev. Cornelius Laurisin, rector
of St. Michaels Greek Catholic church, who
was arrested ON warrant sworn out by
Thomas Mccormick, of West Centre street.
Mccormick alleges +hatwhile his 12-year-Old
son was passing the reverend gentleman's
residence, on West Raspberry alley7-he was
attacked by large dog, which jumped 0en
his back, tore his clothes and lacerated his
person to the extent of several inches. The
defendant wanted the dog shot which Rev
Laurisin refused to do. He was then held in
$500 bail for keeping vicious dog about his
premises and maintaining public nuisance.
Six other witness testified to the viciOusness
of the animal, one witness claiming that his
17-year-old daughter was attacked by the
same dog one day last week. The plaintiff
is being represented by M. M. Burke Esq.

The Case Was Settled.

Peter Sipher was before Squire Middleton,
of Maizevllle, yesterday charged by Mrs,
John Fronk. of Gilberton, with shooting her
daughter, Martha, in the right shoulder.
Sipher claims that he was at the second-story
window cleaning his gun when it was acci-
dentally discharged with the above result.
Witnesses, however, testified that Sipher was
not up stairs but under a porch-at the rear of
the house, and when the mother and
daughter appeared he shot at them. The
wound is not a serious one. The accused,
after much pleading, succeeded in settling
the case by paving the costs.
