The first stanza of the poem is as foi-

Not In the camp his victory lies,
Or triumph in the market place,
who is his nations sacrifice
To turn the Judgment from his race.
The poet sings how happy he, VINO

CASE AGAINST sHOEMAKER.
Retaliatory Measure Adopted b.
Prosecuted Meat PeddIer.

As q result of the prosecution of Joe
Tognoni, who was charged with Illegally
peddling meat in Eureka, John II. Shoe.
maker was brought before Justice Cromer
on Thursday morning on q charge sworn to
by Tognoni, charging the complaining wit
ness had demanded of Shoemaker at his
slaughter house the production Of his book
Of record in which should be recorded the
names and brands of all bovines slaugh-
tered by him.
1t developed that the defendant had
stated when such demand was made that
he did not have his record book at the
slaughter house, but would at any time
produce it in court. When the case came
up the complaining witness's testimony
was substantially to this effect, and he
further stated that he did not want to pur.
sue the case further.
Mr.. Shoemaker testified that he did not
keep his record book at the slaughter
house. but kept 1t at his home. which is his
place of business. He produced the book
in court, and when the Justice had
ined it, he announced from the bench that
it was in good shape.
There being no possibility of a convic-
ton after this showing. the District After
ney moved the dismissal of the case, and
the Justice stated that it appeared to him
no offense had been committed or intended.
The case was accordingly dismissed.

MEAT PEDDLER ARRESTED.
Released ON Proving she STUFF 20 BE
Horse FIesh.

On Monday last Joe Tognoni, who re-
sides at the mouth of Cottonwood Can.
yon, was arrested in Eureka on a com
plant sworn out by John Fl. Shoemaker,
charging him with ~peddling beef in the
town OF Eureka without exhibiting the
hide upon request Of a citizen, as provided
by law. When the case came up on
Wednesday before Justice Cromer the de-
PENDANT pleaded not guilty and demanded
q jury trial, George A. Bartlett, Esq, APP
pearing in his behalf, the prosecution be
ing conducted by District Attorney Breen.
On opening the case the District Attor-
ney stated that he had received informa-
tion since the proceedings were instituted
to the effect that the meat sold was horse
flesh, and that should such be shown to be
the case, he would move for q dismissal, as
the law does not require a vender OF horse
meat to have with him and exhibit the
hide of such animal. 1t was later proven
bv unreasonable testimony that it was
really horse flesh which Tognoni had been
selling, and on motion of Mi. Breen the
complaint against him was accordingly
dismissed.
The one thing accomplished by the pros
ecution was the publicity given to the fact.
that horse meat has been disposed of by
peddlers to unsuspecting citizens of Eureka
under the supposition that they were pur.
chasing beef or veal; but after this expert
ence the general public will be a little more
particular as to the grade Of meat they
buy from irresponsible parties.
1t has been limited for some years past
that horse Hesh was being sold in this mar
ket for beef. and now the truth of the
statements has been positively proven.

Unpopular Schedule Established By
the Department.

~
the Department.
Postmaster Broy this week received
che following order governing the Eureka
Ely mail route, and under its i~nstruc-
tions the stage started from this place
Thursday morning on the new schedule:
WASHINGTON, d.. G. January Is, 1901.
The following is the schedule Of depart
ures and arrivals of the mail on Route No.
rs. 1876. Of which G. q. Steele is the con.
tractor; ordered to take effect az once:
December Ito April 30-Leave Eureka
daily except Sunday at z A. NJ. Balance Of
schedule to remain as at present.
w. s. SHALLKNBERcER,
Second Asst. Postmaster General.
A more unsatisfactory arrangement
than this could scarcely be conceived,
and the one thing which the people
served by the route have 10 congratulate
shemselves upon is that the new order
does not extend beyond April 80. Un-
der the new schedule, it will be seen,
the mail for Ely which arrives In Eu-
reks by Saturdays train must remain
here until the following Monday morn
ing. and on Tuesday morning the stage
will be expected to start Out without any
mail except the local, as one arrives here
on Monday.
Postmaster BroY is Of the opinion that
in this regard 9 mistake has been made.
while others are disposed to 60 further
and insist that the entire order is . mis-
take. That the progressive people Of Ely
will strongly object to the new schedule
is c~ertsin, and in this objection they
will be heartily seconded by the people
of Eureka. Evidently the Postofice
Department did not take into ~consIders-
tion che interests and wishes of the pee
pie who are supposed to be accommodate
ed by the Eureks-Ely mail route. but
they are likely to have their attention
called to this shortcoming within q few
days.

Another Claims Title TO the Reno
Star Mine,

Star Mine.
Charles Bell last week began sui,
against George Wedekind, claiming
that the latter had no title to the Reno
Star mine and that he. Bell. is the
rightful owner. Mr.. Wedekind and
his three sons, John, Louis and Henry
were served with copies of the sum-
mons, and work was Immediately sus-
pended on the property. On the ad-
vice Of their attorney, Thomas Wren
they shortly afterward resumed opera
tions, although they are in constant
fear Of being arrested for contempt OF
court. The case will come up for hear
ing on Saturday, January 26, and the
claims of the contestant will be given
full publicity. The friends of the
Wedekind family in this part OF the
State will hope that they may have no
difficulty in defending their title to
that valuable mine.

ASSAULTED A CONSTABLE.
Cowardly Attack of Two Men on q
Peace Officer.

Constable Cosgrove of Justice Nelson's
court was badly beaten by two unknown
men last night and is today under the
care of doctor
At about $50 o'c,ock as the cons table
was emerging from a saloon at the corr
ner of Wyoming and Copper streets two
men attacked him. Without word
one of them struck him on the forehead
knocking him down. AS the BILE
arose he drew a revolver which he used
as club to protect himself with. In the
fight that followed Cosgrove dropped the
revolver and it was picked up by one Of
the attacking party. The engagement
lasted only few moments but Cosgrove
received many painful bruises on the
had and was badly cut on the hands. At
ter securing the revolver the two men
took to Their heels
Cosgrove reported the assault to the
police and later in the evening Officer
kerns saw one of the men at the corner
of Park and Wyoming streets. The Of
ficer tried to arrest the man but the lat
tier broke away and made for the bad
lands. Kerns gave chase and fired one
shot into the air but the fugitive only
ran the faster. A moment later the Of
ficer tripped and fell and when ne re-
gained his feet his quarry was out OF
sight. In the fall Kerns cut his hands
in several places and nearly ruined his
uniform.
The officers are still hunting for the
men, but up to late hour had not sue
ceeded in locating them. 1t is believed
that the men who assaulted the stable
had some grudge against him. probably
because they had figured in some suit in
which the papers had been served by the
constable. The police have good des
criptions of the men and it is only a
matter of time when they will be in Gus
tody.
