Reinbeck, Dec. 30.-The Christmas

passed in this place. Sometimes there
are sickness and deaths to mar the oc-
scasion. but this year there We're
neither. The gifts that We're given
We're of a cheaper kind than formerly,
which to our mind is an advance in the
right direction. 1t has less of the dis
play and does not make the poor feel
their poverty so keenly.

Logan, Dec. SO.-Young Amer Kirk
endall went hunting yesterday after
noon and while out tried to climb a
tree and draw the gun up after him
with the usual result-the gun went off
being loaded-and the entire charge
from one barrel went through his arm
above the elbow, tearing through the
flesh and bone. The doctors took out
about two inches of bone and think
perhaps the bones will grow together
and make the arm of some use TO him
though of course it will be shorter ant
crippled for life. The unfortunate boy
was brought to town by the section
men and the wound dressed as quickly
as possible, but it can not be deter
mined whether he will escape an am.
putation of the member.

Dunn was shocked. or pretended to be,
at the testimony of Braunhart. The two
had long been close political and social
friends. They moved ard had their being
upon the same political plane. They
fought on the same side together and
what one received the other shared But
that was long ago when Braunhart was
Familiarity and affectionately known as
"Buggy-robe Sammy in token of
touching tribute which ne had made to
Buckley.
But while politics makes strange bed
fellows it also makes strange enemies and
Braunhart and Dunn became foes. Bug
gy-robe Sammy" became a sobriquet of
contempt and Dunn became one of the
push This lasted for a while and then
another turn of the political wheel sent
Dunn and Braunhart flying into the same
bed together Both were in the State
Senate when James H. Budd was elected
Governor. Budd was a reform Governor
and Sammy was a reformer. The sad cpl
sode of the buggy-robe had been buried
among the forgotten mistakes of politi-
cal history.
Braunhart wanted to be Registrar Of
Voters for San Francisco. He considered
that a long and profitable experience with
southside ballot boxes qualified him for
the position, but In his own distinguished
self he did not possess the necessary in
ffuence to obtain it. He sought, therefore,
and obtained the support of Senators
Dunn, Mitchell. Toner, Biggy and Hen
derson. They pleaded with Budd, showed
how thoroughly and persistently Brauh-
hart had worked in the cause of reform
and gave every assurance in the world
that the buggy robe was only an ordinary
affair after ALL
Pleading was in vain Budd had chosen
some one else for the place and Dunn and
Braunhart's other champions were told
that the position of Port Warden would
be given to Braunhart If he would retire
from the fight for Registrar. He refused
to do SO until Hinton was appointed.
Then congratulating himself that ne had
defeated Andy Clunie he said he would
accept the position of Port Warden
Dunn and the others again importuned
Budd and Braunhart got the place.
There was a look of sadness therefore
on the face of Dunn when he heard

Braunhart tell what bad man he IS.
1t was a blow from an old friend. Braun
hart left nothing to be desired in his tes-
timony. He was eager, emphatic, preju
diced He was positive and uncompro-
missing. There was no question about it;
Dunn was bad all over. Braunhart swore
that Dunns general reputation in The
community for truth. honesty and integ-
rity is bad He knew so himself, yet he
swore that he was unfriendly with Dunn.
The witness declared that he had heard
Dunn's reputation generally discussed
and all said it was bad.
In particular. and here Braunhart over
stepped the bounds of prudence, he said
that he had heard ex-senator Bart Burke
and John F. McGovern give Dunn bad
reputation. Both of these men have taken
an oath before the Superior Court that
they did nothing of the sort. They swear
that they never spoke TO Braunhart in
reference to Dunn and never mentioned
Dunn's reputation, good or bad, to Braun
hart Upon these aff1davits, which make
the affair an extremely serious one for
Braunhart, the complaint of perjury has
been based by Dunn.
Braunhart gave his testimony the lat
ter part of last month and Dunn imme-
diately began an investigation. He found
that Braunhart had used the names of
at least lWO men NIlHOuI duNAAblllS anu
in doing so had not only trif1ed with the
Superior Court, but had made himself
liable for perjury
The first man whom Dunn saw was eX-
Senator Bart Burke, who swore TO the
following affidavit to prove that he had in
no way discussed Dunns reputation with
Braunhart:

NO SECRET TREATIES
WITH FOREIGN POWERS
Secretary Hay Denies That a Secret
Alliance Has Been Entered Into
With England

COLUMBUS. Ohio, Sept. 12-In let
ter to Chairman Dick of the Republican
State Executive Committee. Hon. John
Hay, Secretary of State, makes this en-
phatic statement regarding the alleged
secret alliance between England and the
United States:
There is no alliance with England nor
with any power under the heaven except
those known and published to the world,
the treaties of ordinary international
friendship for the purpose of business
and commerce. No treaty other than
those exists; none has been suggested on
the other side; none is in contemplation.
1t has never entered into the mind of the
President nor any of the Government TO
forsake, under any inducement, the wise
precept and example of the fathers, which
forbade entangling alliances with Euro
pean powers.
