A PAIR OF SWINDLERS
Do Up the Occidental Colony Compa-
ny in Nevada

San Francisco, Aug. 1O.-The Occi-
dental Colony company at Wellington,
Lyon county, Nevada, which was or
gained and operated by Russian Jews
is about to be closed out by the sheriff
On November 8, 1897, twenty-one fam
lilies of Russian Jews left San Fran
cisco for the new land of promise, the
Wymore ranch, near Dayton. They
had purchased the property for $4,000
which they proposed tO--pay from what
they should realize from the products
of their labor. WymOre permitted the
settlers to obtain further loan of $4,000
which was recorded as a first mortgage
on the land. With this they obtained
lumber and built houses. They worked
hard and were doing well when on July
Is, the president of the colony, Daniel
Schwartz, and Secretary Harry Bell,
obtained 81, 500 from the Bullion and
Exchange bank of Carson on mortgage
ing the entire crop of the colony. With
that money they decamped. The bank
has now begun suit to recover the
amount of the mortgage and the al
ready destitute colOnists will probably
be evicted from their houses.
Schwartz has formerly lived in Phil
adelphia while Bell halls from Chicago
and either of these places is most
likely their objective points although
some of the wronged colOnists believe
that the fugitiVes are on their way to
Alaska. Warrants are out for their ar

THIS BOY A WONDER.
Youngster Captures a Thief and De-
Iivers Him to the Police.

Chicago, Aug. 1O.-Eleven-year old
Harry Edwards, of 55 Elizabeth street,
distinguished himself by chasing and
capturing a full-grown man single
handed, recovering some stolen prop
ty, and turning the alleged thief over to
the police.
Today he modestly told his story to
Justice SABBATH, and Inspector Shea has
promised that when Harry gets to be
old enough he shall surely be made one
of the inspectors policemen. Harry,
however, is a modest little fellow, who
does not think he has done anything
great, and would be satisfied if he were
he says, he would like better than
wearing q big star and brass buttons.
While Harry was being cOmplimented
by the police officials, Harry Fern of 46
Lake street, who owes his capture to
the little fellow, glared angrily at the
boy and tried to convince Justice Sa-
bath that he was an honest man and
would not steal were he given the
best opportunity The court, however,
did not believe him and Fern was fined
$40 and costs.
According to the evidence submitted
the prisoner called at the home of Mrs.
s. Wright at 43 Elizabeth street and
begged for an opportunity to scrub her
stone steps. While Mrs. Wright's at
tention was attract to the rear of her
home, it is said Fern stole a. basket of
groceries and attempted to escape.
Mrs. Wright gave the alarm. Harry
Edwards was close by and not being
frightened in the least gave chase and
caught Fern by the coat tails and chung
to him until a policeman arrived and
relieved him of his prisoner.

TRAINING Too HARD.
Tt is Feared That Corbett is Fighting
His Fight With His Trainers.

Asbury Park, Aug. 1O-Jim Corbett
is doing exactly what he did before the
Carson battle with FitzsimmOns. He is
fighting his fight with his trainers OF
this a party of friends who have seen
him at Asbury Park are agreed. He is
working so hard that it is entirely
probable that when he faces Mccoy in
the ring of the Hawthorne cub near
RuffalO next month he will not be fit
to stav the route of a long contest with
such Young and sprightIy anita gOnist
as the kid"
Corbett has long been noted for the
desperate manner in which he goes at
the training process, and those who
studied his methods closely while he
was training in Nevada for Fitzsim-
mons agreed that he used an entirely
wrong system and one that would not
win unless the user of it had all the
better of the other conditions of the
contest. Corbett has not learned by
experience. That is why his friends are
worried about him.

ARMY OF 10000
Passes in Review Before the Com
mander at Chickamauga.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Aug. 1O.-Not
since General Sherman reviewed the
Grand Army at the close of the civil
war has there been such an imposing
and magnificent military pageant as
that witnessed on the historic fields of
Chickamauga Park yesterday.
Since came here a week ago, I
have visited the hospitals and now in
order to form an immediate acQuaint-
ance with my command, its needs and
demands, have had the well men come
to me"
These were Major General Brecken-
ridges words, meant to be explanatory
an part of the reason for holding the
great review at Camp Thomas, in which
the entire army of 40, 900 men took part.
The regiments were grouped by diVis-
ions and each division was accom-
panied by its ambulance train. At 8
O'Clock all the commands, numbering
about 10000 men, formed in line of regi-
ments in columns or masses.
At the firing of a gun at $50 a. m,
the commands turned out in light
marching order, headed by General
Franks division and proceeded in the
direction OF the reviewing stand, in the
open near SnodgrasS hill. As General
Franks division came into the open the
regiments moved forward in the order
in which they are brigaded and passed
the reviewing stand, company at a
time, until the whole army had passed
I'm review
The movement began at $50 a. m,
and 1t was 1890 p. m, before the last
company passed the stand. The regi-
ments, having passed the stand, did
not re-assemble, but marched to their
respective camps.
The magnificent spectacle was wit
messed by a large and deeply interested
crowd of spectators who were thrilled
with the scene as the regiments march
ed by in the most perfect order, keeping
time to the martial strains of a score
of regimental bands and field music or
BanizauOns. It was a scene rarely wit
messed in the history of a nation, and
the cleverness and skill with which it
was carried out was high compliment
to both the men and the officers in com
mand
Gen. Breckenridge and staff were no
less pleased and gratifed than the
spectators.
As to the advancement made by the
volunteers, General Breckenridge said
he was especially impressed with the
Improvement in their sOIdierIy carriage
and in their appearance generally since
