Con Murphy's lucky star is in the as
cendency-it crossed the line that divides
good fortune and bad fortune some time
last night, and is now high in the firma-
ment of his daily affairs. Last week he
captured a saloon, drank what whisky
he wanted and stood off Constable c. c.
Rhoades with a gun just to show a oubt-
ing public he was Cornelius on the spot.
Then he walked away and kept on walk
ing and standing on street corners until
yesterday, when he became tired. walked
into Justice Nichols court and gave HIM
self up. This morning he again walked
into the same place and a minute or two
later walked out again as free as any man
in town-the charge against him had
been withdrawn by Mr.. Rhoades, the
complaining witness. w. E. Johns, one Of
the men whom Murphy invited into the
saloon to take a drink, is now serving a.
term of $50 lays in the county Jail. His
lucky star, if one he possesses, is still on
the run with a down hill pull.

John Cummings, a bridge carpenter,
sought the advice of the county attorney
today in a matter concerning a difference
existing between S. w. Jackson and him.
self. Jackson is an employment agent. A
few days ago he was requested to adVer-
tise for bridge carpenters to work on a
new line of railroad which the Oregon
Short Line calculates to construct from
Idaho Falls to the interior, a distance of
SO miles, and he did as instructed. Among
the number of men that responded was
Cummings, a big, husky fellow POSSESS
ing a wealth of muscle and intelligence.
He was employed and sent to Idaho Falls,
but when he arrived there he found that
the work had not been commenced and
there were no immediate prospects OF a
beginning, as the lumber had not been
delivered. He presented himself to John
Heavens the boss, but eve HeaverS,
with nothing in the way of lumber save
sage brush and railroad track ties handi-
capped by heavy rails, could do nothing
for him. So Mr.. Cummings returned to
Butte and called upon Jackson to make
good the amount of money it had cost
him for railroad fare to and from the
Falls, and also the fee he had paid him
for the job. When told the condition of
matters at the Falls, almost fell
from his chair and explained: rs that
So? Well, I'll be hanged if I'd known 1T
I would not have sent anyone there until
l knew the contractors were ready! Why,
/ sent a lot more men down last night
Cummings had coming a kick equiva-
lent to $11.75, which amount the trip had
cost him, but jackson did not consider
himself responsible for more than $3.50,
| which sum he rendered Cummings, but
the latter would not accept 1t. The $6.oO
covered the fee paid by Cummings and
the amount of the fare to the Falls. Cum
nlines thought he could compel Jackson
to stand good for the total amount. He
was told by the chief deputy county at
torney that as long as Jackson had acted
in good faith in the matter he could not
be held criminally responsible, but a civil
action might be made stick.
Just before Cummings left the office he
remarked that a man would be justified
in taking the law INTO his own hands and
bringing contractors to time with a gum.

Something About the Case Concerning the
Il. Il. % Bridge at BeiIaire
The case of Belmont county against
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany, wherein the county authorities
seek to impose taxes on that part of
the B. & o. river bridge lying in the
aforesaid county, came up for hear
ing in the U. S. Court at Cincinnati
last Saturday, as previously chronicled,
and was partly heard and partly con
tinued at the request of the B. & O.
company to enable the company to file
more affidavits. The parties on either
side will not be required to appear
personally in court at any time here
after but it has been arranged that the
attorneys on both sides shall submit
briefs in lieu of further oral argument.
In an interview yesterday with Attor-
ney c. l.. Weems, of st. Clairsville, who
has been retained by the Belmont coun-
ty authorities in the case, it was learn
ed that the B. & 0. company supposed
that the sole claim of the county was
that the bridge as part of the Central
Ohio railroad. should be taxed as a
separate structure apart from the track
laid on it, but were surprised to find
that the main point relied on by the
county officials was that the bridge is
not and never was part of the
Central Ohio road. but is owned alb
solutely by the B. & 0. company, where
as that company merely has a lease on
the Central Ohio road.

estimates place the number of starving
