HUMOROUS. j v
The Attorney Of William Buggert, Charged
with Assault, Files Z Laughable
| sr.ar s-5sS. Affidavit. r.. ~. s-.s,

If the man who leaves his wife and
babies to enlist in the cause of his
country is entitled to our admiration,
what indeed is to be thought of the man
81 imbued with the fire of patriotic feel
ing that he will not only tear himself
away from the bosom of his family, but
will even 60 so far as to ignore so i'm
portant = consideration as bail bond2
Surely we must look upon him as hero,
or, it not that, then as a cheeky and cuu-
ming knaye.
That Brown county should furnish
such man seems strange, but it is new
ertheless fact.
A couple Of months ago William Bug
CERT Of sigel was arrested on charge Of
assaulting Barbara schlegel, and was
bound over to appear before the grand
jury under q bail bond Of $500. The
county attorney at the time wanted to
have the bond tride more burdensome,
but Buggert, his counsel and his friends
scofed at the idea that he would fail to
make his appearance at the June term
of court, and 50 the bond was allowed to
stand at $500.
Well, the June term came on, and
when Buggert was called for it was re-
ported that he was out OF the state. The
bond was therefore forfeited and his
bondsmen will have to make the sum
good. Luckily for them, il is reported
that they are amply secured.
Aciyil suit for damages, however, had
been instituted against Mr.. Buggert, and
something must be done to stave this
Of.
So his attorney appears in court with
an affidavit that will not only 90 down
il history as decidedly original, but Is :
work Of genuine humor IS well. This
affidavit sets forth that when the var
with Spain broke out, and the president
iil6ued his call for voluntesrs, the de-
fendant Buggert being iimbued With ths
most intense patriotism, responded Is

WON AGAIN.
| For the Fourth Time Samuel D. Peterson Wins
In His Fight Against the Western
Union.

highest court In the state, s. D, Peter
son of this city finds himself once more
q winner in his fight for damages against
the Western Union Telegraph Co.
This time the verdict is for $4,000,
which is 5000 higher than that rendered
in January.
The jury which gave the verdict con-
sisted of John Schumacher, Andrew Dau-
er, Andrew Bekken, John Soukup, Chas.
Hauenstein, Jos. Guendner, Hermann
Dittbenner, John Dengler, -. Prok-
osch, Jacob Frantz, Geo. P. Dietz and
William Gent.
The attorneys were the same as in the
previous trials, s. l.. Pierce for the
plaintiff and G. NJ. Ferguson for the
company. - f.
The evidence and the arguments were
also the same, Pierce insisting with lur-
i'd eloquence that his client had been
outrageously ibeled by the sending of
such slanderous message as ''slippery
Sam, your name is pants;' that it was
time to show this monied octopus that
it was not privileged to injure mems
regulations at will and with impunity
that it had no right to receive and trans
nit unsigned messages of the character
stated under the plea of common car
rier; and that if allowed to 90 unpun-
ished for such offenses it would be a
standing menace to the good name Of
every man. All this, or something in
the same strain, Pierce hurled at the
jury with all the force of his impassioned
rhetoric and even at times with large
drops Of the lachrymal fluid in his eyes.
Ferguson was calm, cool and argu-
mentative. He tried to impress the jury
that there had been no malice in the &C.
ton Of the company or its agent, conse-
queatly there could be no punitive dam
ages. The company should not be pun
ished for the mistake Of an agent, when
the mistake was not m ade with evil iu-
tent and had inflicted no injury.
The only publication OF the libel, il
it was q libel, that was possible under
the company rules, was that which came
from sending the message from one
agent to another agent, both Of whom
were bound to secrecy by the statutes Of
tho state. Under these circumstances
how could the damages, if anything, be
more than nominal?
But the jury, somehow, thought diff.
ferently and returned verdict Of 81, 900.
The case Of course will once more be
appealed. !.

THE MINING CONGRESS.
PENNSYLVANIA WILL SEND
FOUR MORE DELEGATES.
Senator Cannon Writes That He Will
Attend If Possible = Siskiyou
County Miners Association.

Governor Hastings of Pennsylvania,
with all the pressure of war business
on his hands, has found time to-show
an active personal interest in the
mining congress. The committee has
already had ample proof of his friend
ship for the undertaking, and addi-
tional evidence of it was furnished yes
terday in a letter from the governors
secretary announcing the appointment
of four more delegates: Worth Kill
patrick Connellsville; c. L. Snowden,
Brownsville; Anton Hardt, Wellsboro;
A. S. Richard, Osceola Mills. The gov
ernor also sends his cordial good wishes
for the success of the congress and
says he has appointed only those who
will come.
An interesting practical demonstra-
ton of the value of the congress to
Utah was afforded yesterday when a
representative of an eastern chemi-
cal concern came to headquarters to
get information, if possible, of the To-
cation of deposits of cobalt, uranium
and bismuth. So far as the secretary
knows there are no large deposits of
these products except of bismuth,
which is said to exist. in large guam
tity near Frisco. Information on this
and kindred subjects will be of great
service to the committee if forwarded
to the secretary at the Templeton
headquarters.
Senator Cannon writes that he will be
present at the mining congress unless
congress fails to adjourn in time; and
it is inferred from the tone of his let
ter that he does not expect the ses-
sion to last much longer.
The Siskiyou County Miners associa-
ton of California has named the fol-
lowing delegates to the congress:

80 BOXES OF GOLD.
Easy Mining For Pin Money

To secure some desired information
direct from the people, it is proposed
to send a trim little box containing .
gold dollars to each of 30 persons who
write the most interesting description
of their experience and observation on
the following topics:
How have you been affected by Cof-
fee drinking?
Do you know anyone who has been
driven away from Postum because it
came to the table weak and character
less at the first trial?
Did you set such a person right re-
garding the easy way to make Postum
clear, black and with a crisp, pungent
taste?
Have you ever discovered a better
way to make it than to note the clock
at the time actual boiling commences,
(not when pot is first put on stove) and
keep it boiling moderately for full 10
minutes, using 2 heaping teaspoons
full for each cup of BEVERAGE
Give names and account of those
you know to have been cured or helped
in health by the dismissal of coffee
and the daily use of the Food Coffee
in its place.
Address your letter to the Postum
Cereal Co., Linn, Battle Creek, Mich,
writing your own name and address
clearly.
Decision will be made and the 30 lit
tie boxes of gold sent out on June 80
next.
Every. friend of Postum is urged to
write and each letter will be held in
high esteem by the company, as an
evidence of such friendship, while the
little boxes of gold will reach many a
modest writer whose plain and sensi-
bic letter contains the facts desired,
the sender may have but
small faith in winning at the time of
writing.

The Merritt Company Opening Up
Rich Flacers.

At point between Sparta and Eagle
Valley on Eagle creek, says the Dem
ocrat of. Baker Gsty, Ore, there is a
busy scene of mining operations and
the activity is brought about by ex-
tensive operations inaugurated by an
eastern company.
At the. junction Of main and east Ea-
gle the Merritt Mining company has
just completed a. ditch four feet wide
and four feet deep that brings water
from main Eagle, a distance of three
and one-h8if miles, TO their ground sit
uated on a high bar The pressure at
this point is about 800 feet, sufficient

Ever since the first placer. working in
the old camp of Sparta, the bars of
Snake river have been worked but with
little success on account of the huge
powders, and at this point where the
Merritt company is working good pay
dirt has been found but the lack of
water facilities by ditch prevented sue
cessful results. Now that this ditch is
completed il is safe to predict that good
returns will be obtained and to the en-
terprise of the Merritt company much
credit is due for bringing about that
which others have attempted and failed
to accomplish.

The Chloride Point Mil.

A gentleman who arrived in the city
from Mercur last night informs The
Herald that the machinery of the Chic
ride Point mill was started up yester-
day, and that the plant started off
smoothly and without jar, every por-
ton of the equipment fitting so nicely
that it may truly be said that the mill
was built like a watch"
The motive power-electricity-
found to be all that was claimed for
it, no trouble whatever being exper-
fenced in making the application.
The machinery viii be run for day
or two to adjust it to hair, and it is
expected that the initial start on ore
will be made Monday or Tuesday next,
and the management is very sanguine
as to the success of the enterprise, and
it is believed that within the next 20
or 80 days Chloride Point cyanides will
make its appearance in the market. to
be followed by regular consignments
thereafter.

RACE AGAINST TIME.
Tea Importers Tried to Beat Uncle
Sam, But Failed.

Chicago, June 1.-THE Chronicle
says: 1t has just been learned that
tea importers of Chicago lost $4,000 in
an exciting race against time and Uncle
Sans war taxes which had its finish
at midnight Monday on the Canadian
border, near Portal, N. d.
y score of carloads of choice tea were
being rushed into this country from
Canada III order TO escape the new war
duty, which fell due June IS, at mid,
night. Only five carloads arrived on
Uni -ates soil in time. The other
10 cars were stalled in British territory,
a few hundred feet away. as the clock
struck u. They were brought to a
standstill by the peremptory orders of
United States internal revenue officers
on the watch at the dividing line be-
tween the two countries.
When a message conveying the news
that the race had been lost was received
in this city there was CONSERVATION
among the local importers. The disas-
ter was heightened by the absence of
opportunity for getting the retail grocer
or the public TO pay the tax, as the en-
tire consignment had been sold to deal
ers throughout the west and northwest.
The blow falls with full force upon a
dozen tea importing firms in this city.

THE COLUMBIA AND HERCULES.
The Promising Showing In These
Lion Hill Mines.

Among the mines that are doing con-
siderable exploration work on Zion hill,
says the Mercur Miner, are the Column
bia and the Hercules. The former
lies northwest of the Chloride Point and
everything indicates that the rich min
eral chutes that are in this mine con-
tinue on through the Columbia grounds.
Two shafts have been sunk. TIE Rosa
was sunk on the western part of the
property and in doing the assessnnt
work on il last fall some rich ore was
struck Work has been continued on
II this summer The shaft is 80 feet
deep and two drifts have been run on
:he ore body from which a. large guam
tity of rich chloride and lead ore has
oeen taken and shipment will be made
In about ten days. 1t viii average 100
ounces in silver, 80 per cent lead and
about 81 in gold. -Four men are driving
the drifts and getting out shipping ore.
The Columbia shaft is being sunk near
er the eastern boundary of the prop
erty. and the ore is at a greater depth.
The shaft is down $50 feet. The Rich
ardson Bros. have a contract for sink
ing fifty feet more. They are now tim
bering the shaft, putting in within and
getting ready to push the work for
ward.
The Hercules lies to the east of the
Columbia and adjoins the Chloride
Point. Considerable work has been done
on it. The main working is a tunnel
which is in 200 feet. 1t strikes the vein
at that point and an incline follows it
down so feet, from which point a. drift
has been run 80 or so feet. Sam Pollock
is working the property and about eight
tons of fine looking ore are on the
