Action for Deceit.

The facts in the following case present
a very singular transaction. The defend
ant owned two lots in Lincoln, Neb., in
numbered by a mortgage of 5000. At the
same time the plaintiff had on deposit and
to his credit 81, 600. 50, and inc"omprehensible
as it may seem. this fact had entirely es-
caned his attention. The defendant, dis
covering this fact, made him a proposition
to deed him the two lots, subject to the
REMEMBRANCE, Tor an asslgnmenI Oh me
plaintiffs interest in certain property, the
nature and location of which the defendant
declined TO disclose. Protected by the
simple assurance that there was nothing IN
the papers he was TO sign which would
subject him to criminal liability or dis
grace, he blindly entered into the contract
and signed the instruments before him.
one of the papers was a check for the
amount he had in bank, which the defend
ant drew and appropriated TO his own use.
Two years later the plaintlft discovered
what he had done. and when the run pur-
port of the contract dawned upon him,
he brought suit to recover the money. 1t
was held that poor judgment or unfortun-
ate trades. in the absence or fraud or de-
ceptiOn, form no basis for relief by the
court. Where two persons are dealing with
each other upon equal terms ana no con-
fdential relations exist between them,
neither is bound to disclose superior ln1or-
nation he may have respecting the trans
action. IS7 Northwestern Rep. NEBRASKA,

Councilman McGrew. Democrat, INTRO
duced an ordinance in the city Council last
night 20 tax gas mains 2 cents a foot ana
providing a fine Of $500 for a violation OF
the ordinance. Similar ordinances have
been before the Council four times and
they were all defeated. Those who voted
against them deemed it advisable To allow
the gas companies 10 expend their money
TO improve their pipe lines and pumping
stations so that Indianapolis would secure
more gas. TIL, ordinance introduced last
night was not altogether a surprise, as the
Republicans thought the Democrats would
do something Of the kind in order to use II
as campaign capital. \ motion was made
TO send the ordinance to the finance COM
mittee: but this was lost and il was re-
ferred to the committee on contracts and
franchises
The finance committee reported on three
ordinances and they were later passed.
The ordinance authorizing a temporary
loan of $4,000 to pay August bills was
passed. Amendments were made TO the
ordinance authorizing an appropriation Of
$4,000 to man and equip the new fire ap-
paratus. The item of 1880 for the pay of
new firemen was amended 10 5000. This
left a balance Of $l1.650. the hose fund of
$500 and the miscellaneous fund OF SlO
not being changed. The ordinance was
passed as amended.
The ordinance 10 transfer 5000 from the
building and repair fund 10 the credit of
the Board of Safety was amended by
changing the item OF s., 800 for the pur-
chase OF new hcrses to $1,000 and the fur
niture item of 81 900 10 $500. IL was passed.
The majority of the committee on
ordinances reported favorably on the ordi-
nance TO annex Tuxedo with a slight
amendment TO include the property south
of Washington street to the north line of
the p, c., G.. ~ St. l.. railroad tracks. Per-
rott introduced a minority report I'm which

MESA

T. E. Flannigan of Phoenix was q visitor in Mesa today
 The railroad surveying party is get ting along nicely with its work and is driving stakes through Mesa. If the right kind of concessions are made by the property owners along the route the road will no doubt be located there. but they have surveyed two other routes. and the one will be accepted that will give the best inducement. They have already secured the right of way over part of the route they are now working on and it is most likely the road will be built along it. but should a lack of interest in the road on the part of some citizens of Mesa should assist in get ting this right of way so that Mesa would be the base of supplies.
 Richard George passed through Mesa Tuesday for La Cananea. Mexico.
 The Mesa train did not arrive last night until II p. m- owing to the ASri- cultural association exercises in the evening at Phoenix. which many of the people of Mesa attended They report the exercises splendid and the fair thus far decided success, although it would make a Mesaite feel more at home could he or she see more of the Mesa products and handiworA displayed there.
