A MOTION TO D|SS0L We
Mayor Lesser Asks That Injunc
ton Be Raised.
CITY HAS NO INTEREST
Amdavits Set Forth That the City Attor-
ney Is Not Acting for the City, and
Has No Authority to
Bring the Action.

Attorneys James & Walsh yesterday
filed in the district court, on behalf of
Mayor Lesser a motion to dissolve the
temporary injunction recently granted
by Judge Napton restraining the mayor
from issuing and City Treasurer Walk
up from cashing the police warrants of
Tom Lebeouf, Frank Stebbins and John
Marchion, the story of which contro-
versy is now familiar to the public. The
motion Is accompanied by motion to
strike the complaint from the files.
This matter was brought into court
few days ago by petition for re-
straining order signed by D. d. Twohy.
as citizen and taxpayer and by r.
O'Leary as city attorney. 1t was
brought to prevent the payment of the
500 on each of the warrants.
The motion to strike sets up that the
complaint is not signed by the plaintiff
nor his attorney. as required by law;
that 1t appears upon the face of the
complaint that T. O'Leary appears in
said action as city attorney of the city
OF Anaconda, and that the city of Ana
conda is not a party to the action, but
that the same is prosecuted by priv
ate individual against the officers of
said city, in their official capacity, as
the agents of the said city, and that
the complaint in it is not verified as
required by law.
In two affidavits accompanying the
motions, one signed by Mayor Lesser
and the other by Alderman Fred Gang
ner it is alleged that the city of Ana
conda is not party plaintiff to this
action; that one of the atlantis, as
mayor, nor the city council have not
authorized T. O'Leary, its city attor-
ney, to appear and prosecute the said
action or proceeding, and that his APP
pearance and prosecution of the said
action as city attorney of the city OF
Anaconda is without warrant of author
lty OF the city of Anaconda by its COM
mon council or its duly qualified off
GERS. That this action is sought to be
prosecuted against Oliver Lesser, as
mayor and his co-defendant. John r.
Walkup, as the city treasurer of the
city of Anaconda, and against them in
their official capacity, as the agents of
the said city of Anaconda, and to re-
strain them from performing certain
acts ordered and authorized by the CITY
council of the said city. and that the
said T. O'Leary does not appear in his
official capacity as city attorney of said
city, for and in it's behalf of its said
officers: but that this action is prosecut-
ed by private individual in his own
behalf. and not by its authority: nor
is D. D. Twohv an officer or agent of
the said city. The said r.. O'Leary IS
the duly qualified clerk of the city of
Anaconda as well as it's attorney. and
that as such city attorney, it is his du-
ty to appear and defend or prosecute
all actions for or against the said city
in any of the courts of this state, and
that the said city of Anaconda is not
party in interest herein, the said Lesser
and Walkup being agents thereof.

Committee Of Newsboys' and Bootblacks'
Home Is in the CITY.

Home Is in the City.
A committee consisting of John N Smp-
son. Thomas Williams, G. E. Edwards, B.
w. Wilson and r. Il. Hill, representing
the Newsboys' and Bootblacks' Home of
Butte. are in the city. The object of their
visit is to arrange for a grand masquer-
ade ball to be given on April 49, if it is
possible to secure that date. The COM
mittee yesterday called upon Hugh Daily
ana Mr.. Kelly of the A o. H. with refer
ence to securing the A. o. Fl. hall for the
affair and they were given every encour-
agement.
The Home gave a ball in Butte few
weeks ago and despite the fact that
blizzard was in progress at the time the
affair proved to be a success, as will I'M
doubtedly be the case here. The object
of the ball is to raise funds for the benefit
of the home, which is one of Butte's most
worthy institutions. The home is some
what in debt at present and it is the hope
of the committee to free the. institution
of its financial burdens by means of the
money raised by the Anaconda ball. The
committee will call upon the various
unions of the city to-day in an effort to
secure their cooperation.

MIGRANTS AND THE LIKE

Things in and about the lower courts
yesterday began to show slight evil
dence of an increase in business, after
long lapse of exceeding dizziness. The
weeks have flown by of late without so
much as a single arrest being made in
fortnight Yesterday, however there
were couple of small burglaries or
petty larceny cases, and a vag or two
also was caught in the net. The warmth
OF spring sun always has a tendency
to do two things in the way of produc-
ing life and activity. One is that 1t
causes the disease germs to come forth
and poison the atmosphere, and breed
sickness, and the other is to cause
renewed activity in the ranks of the
tramps, thieves. and hobos, after their
season of Information during the win
ter.
Joe Sterling was arrested yesterday
on charge of vagrancy. He was
brought up before Judge Kennedy yes
terday afternoon and pleaded guilty.
He was given the option between leav-
ing town within very limited number
of hours and going to Jail for a period
whose limitation was decidedly longer.
Mr.. Sterling decided that the proper
way for him to do was to take advant-
age of the former alternative, and such
being his decision he was allowed to
proceed on his way eastwardly.
Charles T. Smythe was taken in yes
terday on serious charge. He was at
first charged with petit larceny, the ac-
cusation being that he stole a watch of
trif1ing value from Mrs Moon. When
he was arraigned in Judge Boland's
court yesterday afternoon, County At
torney Duffy appeared and withdrew
the complaint charging petit larceny,
but afterwards filed another charging
a felony. Smythe pleaded not guilty,
and his hearing was set for this morn
ing.
Charles Millhouse, a colored man, was
arrested yesterday for disturbing the
peace and quiet of the neighborhood in
which he resides.
The hearing of Chris Effinger, who is
charged with unnatural conduct to-
ward his daughter, will come up to-
day at / o'clock before Judge Boland.
The sheriff's officers yesterday ar
rested a man who gave his name as
John Doe. He is wanted in Silver Bow
county for burglary. He, together with
another man, it is alleged. entered the
cabin of Dan Mudd in the Big Hole
country. and took therefrom quantity
of clothing and other articles. Deputy
Sheriff Aware came down from Butte
and returned with his prisoner yester-
day.

How Treasurer Walkup Fooled Any Burg
lar Who Might Want the City's Money,

They tell a pretty good story at the city
hall on City Treasurer Walkup. The city
treasurer has a great big safe at the
city hall in which he keeps his books
and some of the city's money. In order
to prevent any smooth individual from
getting into the safe by foolng with the
lock very intricate and complicated COM
bination is resorted to- There are so
many turns and twists and figures and
stops to this combination that an ordinary
man can't remember them all. John, be-
ing an ordinary man. put them on piece
of paper. and in order to keep the paper
from falling, by any possibility, into the
hands of a person who had no business
with it, John put it in the safe, shut the
door and turned the knob.
Yesterday he tried all afternoon to open
the safe so he could get at his books, but
so far he hasn't been able to do it yet

AN EASTER GREETING,
Sheriff Conley and His Men Remembered
by a Former Prisoner

by Former Prisoner.
Sheriff Jack Conley is afraid of neither
man nor devil, but when it comes to dyna-
mite he just passes it up. The other day
Jack received by express a neat little
package that looked like it might contain
a box of cigars. Jack gets lots of cigars
from people who are obliged to him for
services rendered and for courtesies
shown. Jack ripped up the string and tore
off the wrapper. Sure enough there was
a cigar box. Just then Jack happened to
think that it was about April fool time
and he became cautious. He lifted the
cover just a tri1e. Inside he could see
an envelope. All around the sides of the
envelope was a mass of dynamite--at least
it looked like dynamite.
"1'll just examine that box of cigars
later said Jack, as he gingerly put it to
one side. "You fellows better not smoke
around here
But curiosity is thing that a sheriff
no matter how strong or brave he be,
cannot resist any more than can a wo-
man. So, after cycling the Internal ma
chine for a while. Mr.. Conley pulled it
toward him with the remark that it
couldn't do any more than kill him. any
way. He bravely opened the box this time
and read the letter. AS he read sigh of
relief escaped him, and the look of anxiety
gave way to that genial smile for which
Jack is noted.
AS soon as he was through the letter
Mr. Conley began paving away the dyna-
mite, which. in the holy light of day, was
only sawdust, and soon half a dozen egg
tops were visible. He removed the eggs
one by one. They were all beautifully
colored and were labeled with the names
of every man in the sheriff's office. They
were from Mamie Suprenant, an unfor-
tunate woman who was for time
boarder of the county. This was her
Easter greeting to those who had treated
her kindly during her Incarceration.

"The Avenger."

John Griffith, who is announced to ap-
pear at the Margaret on Monday in NM.
Anicet Bourgeoise and FetaIs play, THE
Avenger,' has had very remarkable ca
reer on the stage. AS drama 1.-THE Aven-
ger has been accorded a high pace in
stage literature. The management of Mr.
Griffith and his company has been most
lavish in providing magnificent scenery
and this in itself will prove a great at
traction. To support Mr.. Griffith an ex-
cellent company of New York artists has
been engaged. They are headed by Miss
Kathryn Purnell. an actress of beauty
and ability, who is enabled in the play to
wear some remarkable costumes, especial
ly built for her. The engagement is for
a limited period only. and the chances are
that a crowded house will greet Mr.. Grif-
fiths portrayal of the swash-buckling
cavalier. Henri DeLagardere.
