DISTRICT COURT.

The sitting of the District Court
has been set for the 21st. of Novem-
Der. Notice to this effect reached
County Clerk Goodrich on Friday
Until then it was thought that the
sitting would occur about the mid
die of this month.
The volume of civil business prom.

plications for Letters of Administers
ton upon estates of deceased persons
are on file than ut any time fol

es to be little or no criminal business
unless the murderer Hancock il

assurance though efforts in that di
rection have not ceased.

At the Horseshoe claim also, to
the south, the work of McCune and
Lund is showing up richer ore than
ever and steam hoist is to be placed
there also. The two mines are now
being connected by a good wagon

for others there very shortly.
Another good shipment of ore has
gone forward from the Johnny mine
on the Stateline side. The last ship

a ton. The bulk of the presen
shipment is expected to go higher
still, while a portion of it, the select

to run into the thousands.

IDA MAY LEASED.

The owners of the old Ida May
mine at Bristol have leased the prop
erty to Bob Leroy, who expects to
go to work there shortly.
The claim is situated on the ridge
between the Bristol and Jackrabbit
districts and in its past workings has
turned out many tons of high grade
silver lead ore. 1t possesses all the

Bristol side, showing seams of high

looking for copper however, it will
be no surprise if chamber of silver
lead ore, running into the hundreds,
is uncovered.

AN AGED ROYAL PARROT.
Dneky, of the Princess of wales
Household, Was More Than
125 Years Old.

One Of the longest-lived birds on rec
ord died recently in London. Ii was a
parrot named Dueky, the property OF
the prince of Wales, and its age was put
at more than 125 years. Ducky was
a native of the United States of Colom-
bia, whence he was transported TO Eng
land in 1888 and bought by Prime Min
lister Pitt, who in 1900 presented him to
his master, George III. From this date
on the bird was recognized as part OF
the royal household, with quarters at
st. James. DuclSy. however, developed
amazing conversational powers. unac-
eompanied with the proper leaven OF
discretion, and in 1850 he was SEN
fenced to Punishment from ST. James
on the charge, il is said, Of divulging
family secrets. In his new dwelling
place, Windsor castle, Ducky acquired
even worse habits. Windsor accommo-
dates small garrison, and the parrot
was quick to acquire the vernacular Of
Tommy Atkins. The result was con-
sidered unsuitable to the well-known
decorum of the British court. and SEN
tence of Punishment to Australia was
passed on the offender. The amiable
princess of Wales, however. came to the
rescue, and Ducky was removed to
Sandringham. where he remained until
the day of his death Great age though
ii be, 125 years is not considered by
scientific men as the absolute limit or
a parrot So reliable an observer as
Humboldt, whose statement in this
matter is accepted without question by
Darwin, tells of parrot that must
have lived 200 years. The naturalist
came across the bird in South America.
and his reasons for crediting II with
such extraordinary longevity were thar
he heard II use some words of Ian
guage spoken only by tribe of In
dams which had been extinct more
than 200 years.-N. Y Sun.

STRIKERS QUIET.
No More Violence
Manifested By
Them Today.
ONE MAN ONLY ARRESTED.
Rossiter Says None of the
Seceders Can Come
Back.
ONE MAN ONLY ARRESTED.

New York, July 20.-The strike stu
alton in Brooklyn today was practical
ly unchanged. Few cases of violence
were reported, and the only excitement
was caused by the arrest of Thomas j
Casey, a former division superintend-
ent of the Nassau line, on the charge OF
attempting to interfere with Homer E.
Dean, an inspector of the Brooklyn
Rapid Transit Company.
Dean accused Casey of having inter
fered with him on July 16, in the per-
Torrance of his duties while he was
taking out one Of the company's cars
and urged him to join the strike. Casey
was arraigned in police court ana al
mitted to bail pending his examination
tomorrow. Much speculation was in
dulged in today regarding the outcome
of the disagreement between Mr.. John
son, former president of the Nassau
Railroad Company, and Mr.. Rossiter
president of the Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit Company. Mr.. johnson had heard
that Mr.. Rossiter had accused him
Wednesday of instigating the plot to
wreck the elevated structure on the
Fifth avenue road, and spent a large
part of the day hunting up evidence
to substantiate what he had heard.
He was closeted with Magistrate
Bremen during the afternoon, but
neither Mr.. Johnson nor Magistrate
Bremen would make statement. Dur
ing the afternoon more than one hun
dred of the strikers appeared at the
eompany's offices at Montague and
Clinton streets, where they turned In
their badges, punches and other rail
road property, and after signing papers
which severed their connection with
the company, We're paid off. At tie
strikers headquarters a large number
of the strikers were paid strike wages
at the rate paid by the Brooklyn Rape
Transit Company for 10 hours work
President Rossiter stated positively
today that none of the striking EN-
ployes would be taken back excep
those who would report for work 70

seceders from their ranks. While the,
are keeping up q bold front and claim

as if the strikers were beaten.
Among the ranks of the striking MO
tormen and conductors, it is alleged
there are several spies, who keep the
company and authorities Informed OF
the action of the men. In order to make
the strike successful, 1t would be nee.
essary to get the elevated locomotive

ha opening, as the engineers are salts

A NEWPORT EPISODE.
Celia Killeen Once Rescued From the
Waves BY Brave Admirer, Who
May Now Become a Sutton In
the Last Chapter of a
Summer Idyl.

The story Of Charles H. Davis I'M
paralleled generosity to his servants,
told exclusively in Wednesday morn
ing's Spy, was the sensation of the day
in Worcester.
Every effort had been made from the
beginning by all parties concerned to
prevent the story from leaking out, but
the vigilance Of The Spy men is be-
yond that sort of thing, and although
the two maids refused to verify 1t. its
truth was amply corroborated by GER
tain financiers yesterday, who are
closely connected with the business .af-
fairs of Mr.. Davis.
A still greater interest attaches to the
affair in that the whole story of Mr..
Davis muniicent liberality to his
friends has not been half told as yet. 1t
is stated upon excellent authority that
one of his closest friends and constant
companions, who at the present time
is sojourning with Mr.. Davis at the
ainerent summer resorts along the New
England coast, has also been a. bene-
f1ciary Of his to the extent of a good
sized bundle of paying railroad stock
upon the understanding that he shall
continue as his companion during the
remainder of Mr.. Davis life. The
gentleman is said to be no other than
manager Rock of the Worcester The
atre- Mr.. and Mrs. Rock were always
me tayorite friends of Mr.. Davis and
MS Wife, for a long period before the
ceath of the latter, and Mr.. and Mrs
Davis were often to be seen in their
special seats at the theatre. The latter
were always welcome visitors at the Da-
Wis residence, and in a thousand and
one ways they were the favored friends
OF the family. When last heard from,
Mr. Rock and Mr. Davis were at Ports.
mouth, n. H., where they had been
CHARTERED for nearly a fortnight, in
tending to leave there for a. short stav
in the White mountains.
Behind all the unusual circumstan-
ces that have attached to the generous
gifts bestowed upon the two servant
girls, hes romantic story worthy the
pen OF Dumas or Daudet.
1t runs In this wise:--Celia KiIlsen.
one Of the maids who today is $1,000
richer than when she left old ireland
two years ago, through the possession
of Mr.. Davis surplus railroad stock,
was sometime ago at Newport in the
service of the Davis family. With the
usual generosity that characterized Mr..
and Mrs. Davis, she was permitted
practically the same privileges that
would have been accorded to a guest.
Among these was the opportunity FOR
bathing in the surf, that she frequently
took advantage of.
Miss Killeen is far from being an
unattraetive girl, even without her
$1,000 in railroad stock. With her fine
form, her bright black eyes and rosy
cheeks, heightened by the ruddy color
that characteriEes the girl reared in the
mountain life Of old Ireland, she drew
toward her many an admiring glance
among the snectators at the hath and

M'MILLAN's KIND WORDS.
Says He Is AIger's Friend and Regrets
Resignation.

Says He Is AIger's Friend and Regrets
Resignation.
Misunderstanding the-Sea, Mass, July
Ex-senator McMillin of Michigan, who
is occupying his summer residence here,
gave this afternoon the following state
ment to a representative of the Asso-
ciated Press regarding the resignation
of Secretary Alger:
II regret that Gen. Alger felt obliged
to leave the cabinet just at this time,
as / hoped he would remain until the
end of the term. l would gladly have
done anything to aid him in keeping
his place in the portfolio.
Il have always felt kindly towards
the general, and was averse to undue
criticism for which he has long suf-
fered. I have always repudiated any
statement to the contrary, that Gen.
Alger and l were good friends.
If he is a candidate for the Senate
from my state, to which he has a per-
feet right to aspire, then that is an
other matter, but I do not care to dis
cuss that.
I'm regard to the statement made by
Gov. Pingree, charging me with con-
trolling the press of the country in the
criticism of Alger, for the past eight
years, | have ignored Mr.. Pingree and
will continue to do so. His last state
nlent is too absurd to be considered
or answered.
