The Bunting Case.

In the district court yesterday the
case against the bondsmen OF Charles
Bunting, as state treasurer, WAS contin-
ued for the term. The case was brought
some Is months ago but there has been
no effort to bring It to trial. Other suits
have been instituted TO secure the mon
ey that go, tied up and lost in the Bunt-
ing bank failure but none of the liti ga
ton has secured the state Its money.
In the meantime, IN the books OF the
state auditor, the amount. some 81, 600,
Is carried in suspense account, or was
until recently, and it is understood that
1t must remain In that condition pending
some disposition of the case against the
bondsmcn.
II Is a complicated tangle, and If II
continues In the same condition little
over three months longer the state viii
lose an important point. 1.-THE amount
Is carried over In suspense account,
the books will not show that the amount
Is due from the present treasurer when
the times comes for him TO turn over
his Office. 1t would seem as though the
responsibility for reimbursement OF the
state could be determined In less thar
two years. Boise Statesman.

The Dreyfus ScandIe.

The whole of France is in the throes
of another agitation of this miserable af-
fair. 1t will be remembered By our
readers that Capt. Dreyfus, of the
French army, was tried by court mar
tial, and sentenced to life imprison-
ment In an iron cage on the desolate
DEVILS Island on the charge of treason
able correspondence with the German
Government. A number of influential
Frenchmen, including Col. Picquart,
of the army, and the novelist, lola,
took up the cudgels in his behalf, alleg-
ing that he was the victim of a conspi-
racy. The result WAS that lola was
condemned to fine and imprisonment,
and that Picquart was deposed from
his position, and succeeded by Lieuten-
ant Col. Henry.
1t now turns out that certain docu'
ment used by the authorities to pre-
vent a rehearing of the Dreyfus case
and to paralyze the efforts Of Picquart,
was forged by Henry himself, who, on
being confronted with the proof of his
villlany, committed suicide by cuttin &
his own throat. Whereunto this will
grow no man can tell. But that 1t will
weaken confidence In the army and In
the integrity of the government, nc
one can doubt. Indeed, 1t looks very
much as IL the republic itself would be
| subjected to a fearful strain. Later
dispatches make it pretty certain tina
the case OF Dreyfus will be re-opened
His wife, who is said to be most noble
woman, is using all possible efforts tt

stolen, and In all cases it was believed that Brandes could at least help to solve the mystery surrounding the perpetra- tors.
 Sheriff White was approached and was asked to revoke Brandes' appointment as Deputy Sheriff. He decided to investi- gate the matter and for three weeks Deputy George Woodsum was watching the Berkeley watchman. During those three weeks Woodsum saw much that led him to believe that Brandes was ire quently putting up jobs'' on those who did not employ him to watch their prop erty.
 Woodsun reported that all the vandal- of which did not contribute to Brandes income. He also learned that these dam ages were always done at night, and that next morning Brandes would invariably appear and suggest the advisability Of employing him to keep a watch on the property. It was also noticed that there was never any damage to property after Brandes was employed.
 George WoodSum was also instructed to inquire into several complaints made by young ladies about Brandes. He found many ladies who declared that Brandes would try to introduce himself would be at places where he knew they would be and was known to boast of his many lady acquaintances. These facts were all reported upon by Woodsum, and Sheriff White thereupon revoked Brandes appointment.
 After that Brandes had no authority other than as an ordinary citizen watch man. The star he wore was simply that of private detective.

Berkeley Football Men Leave This Evening to Contend With the

BERKELEY. Dec. 22.-The football team of the University of California will leave tomorrow evening on the Oregon express to play their Christmas match with the Multnomah team of Portland.
 Nearly all the Berkeley men who lined up against Stanford last Thanksgiving day will go north with their team. Ath- earn and Craig are forced to stay behind and their places are to be taken by Hoop CT and Masters. Both the latter did splendid work on the scrub team during the season, and are we'll qulifed to line up for the Varsity. Three substitutes te,s have been provided for, among them Kerfoot. 'O1. who will second Bart Thane as quarterback. Percy Hall will captain the men and Manager Everett Brown and Trainer Al Lean are booked to accom- pany them.
 The team looks at it's prospects with fairly good spirit, although it expects a very close fight. Beyond some signal practice this afternoon it has had no training since the big game.
 The Multnomah Club is composed of the crack players in the north. They, expect most of their best men home for the Christmas vacation. so their lineup will be unusually strong.

It contains large ward, with twenty beds; three rooms for special cases; a large dining-room with seating capacity for twenty, bathroom with modern porcelain tubs, a kitchen, storeroom and reading and smoking room
 The different State, city and auxiliary societies completely furnished the estab- lishment with an ample supply of bed and table linen and all neceSsaries.
 Mrs. Mary J. Wilson, it's Superintend- ent, has given the most complete satis- faction in it's management. Three trained nurses are constantly in attendance, and care for the slowly convalescing soldiers Miss Alice Hussey and her assistants have won the gratitude of the sick boys by her kindly ministrations.
