rHREsHER D1sBARMENr MATTER
Judge Harvey Takes Demurrer Under
Amusement.

The hearing in the disbarment pro-
ceedngs against B. S. Thresher.
well-known lawyer, took place in Judge
Rarney's court this morning. and when
it was concluded Judge Harvey took the
demurrer to the sufficiency of the COM
plant under Amusement.
The demurrer was argued in Mr..
Thresher's behalf by Attorney Booth and
in behalf of James Sullivan by Attorney
Morrin.
Morrin contended that the defendant
was guilty of deceit and malpractice in
misleading Sullivan into deciding him
some real estate, when the latter thought
he was only making mortgage.
The facts of the case We're not gone
into by the production of evidence at
first, but in the course of the hearing
Mr.. Morrin filed an affidavit containing
the charges against Thresher in detail.
When the demurrer has been deter
mined the case will end or come to a
trial, probably.

JAILED AGAIN ON ANOTHER IN
SANITY CHARGE.
MAN WITH BEARD
Believed the Latter Wss the Saviour
Man Was Much Annoyed-MoTl
timer Just Out Of
Asylum.

Morton Mortimer, man who has re-
ligious insanity, is once more in the tolls
of the law. ~"
About two months ago he was com
mitted from Butte by Judge Clancy to
the insane asylum at Warm Springs.
but he was discharged from there as
cured on the 5th of this month. ~
The asylum people discharged him as
in excellent condition mentally. but he
was at liberty only but very short
time ere he demonstrated that they were
badly mistaken.
When Judge Clancy was holding an
investigation into his sanity on the pre-
vious OCCASION he interrupted the pro-
ceeding to open prayer in court.
Claims High Titles.
He explained to the court that he was
the king of the world. After he was
turned loose by the asylum people on
the 5th, his old mania took possession
of him in a slightly different form. He
went to a place five miles beyond Sill
Yer Bow and there INDUCED in a curious
freak.
He singled out man with whiskers
there. and followed him around as the
Christ. the Saviour of the world. This
resulted in considerable annoyance to
the man with the whiskers.
Whether Mortimer assumed to be
Simon Peter or Barnabas is not known.
but the man with whiSkers took such
dislike to his attentions that he sent
word to the sheriff's office here 20 have
him dragged off. and that was DONE.
Drives to the Place.
Deputy Sheriff McGarvey drove to the
place where Mortimer was and arrested
him and brought him to the county Jail
on Saturday night.
McGarvey picked a constable up at
Silver Bow to help him. but Mortimer
came with him so quietly. he let the Off
Ger down again on the way back.
Mortimer was quiet as lamb till he
reached Butte Then he began to cut
up. He is a big. rawbOned mant and
McGarvey was unable to hold him and
the horse both. ~
So he called two men to his aid. Then
the men held the horse while thu deputy
sheriff put the king of the world down
and shacked him.
This morning Mortimer was IN d sane
mood and ate his breakfast With relish.
Another investigation into his mind will
he held in a few days. probably. and
then the asylum people Will get him
back once more. which will please the
man with whiskers. T. .

A rather surprising piece of careless
ness was brought out in connection with
the new marine hospital in Ellis ISL
and. New York. When the work was
almost completed, 1t was discovered that
absolutely no means Of artificial illumi-
nation were provided for, either in the
wards or the offices of the building. Nat
urally, it was at first supposed that the
contractors had made the blunder, but
they completely exonerated themselves
by showing that there was no provision
for lighting the hospital mentioned in
either the plans or specifications fur
nished them.-Boston Herald.

He declared he could not walk and we
took turn about in pairs holding him up,

THE sleigh was waiting for us. When
we reached it we threw the Jew into it,

DAYS OF The STAGE
TURN PIKE PALACE COACHES
KEPT THE ROADS WARM.
DEEP SNOW BLOCKED THEM
Attorney Thompson Campbell Had His
Eyesight Impaired on Trip in
+ 1863 and Has Never
IL, Recovered. -

Attorney Thompson Campbell of this
city cannot see very we'll when the
ground is covered with snow and he at
tributes it to an experience he had in Ne
vada in 1863.
Mr.. Campbell was then a resident of
Virginia City, that state, and like all
professional men, his business required
him to make an occasional trip to out
side points.
During the winter Of 1863 he went to
California to look after some legal work
and while there it showed in the Sierra
Nevada mountains, which had to be
crossed by him on the return TRIP.
Many Feet Of Snow.
When snow begins to fall in the Sierras
1t is quite signicant-one little storm
there means anywhere from three to
seven feet of the beautiful; and these
little storms come on with such regular
ity that one is led to believe they are
one continuous storm punctuated with
meal hours.
At any rate, at the end of season the
earth is usually covered by about so or
60 feet Of the white stuff.
In those days Virginia City and Cali
fornia We're connected by one of the best
stage lines the world has ever known,
and all travelling was done by stage.
1t was the line over which Hank Monk
hauled Horace Greeley when the latter
was going to Placervllle, Cal
When the road was good those stages
ran on schedule time, which accounts for
Monks expression:
''Take your seat. Horace; I'll get you
there on time"
When Mr.. Greeley entered a protest
against the shaking up he was receiving
simply because Mr.. Monk was making
q schedule run over the road.
Finds More Trouble.
Then Mr.. Greeley entered protest
City. ITO miles from Virginia City, on the
return trip he found himself confronted
by deep snow which had fallen during
his absence from Virginia.
Eight or 10 others, one of whom was
a Jew, We're in a similar fix, but they had
to get into Virginia City.
Several stages on runners were sent out
that day, but the one on which Mr..
Campbell and the eight or 10 others had
shipped was No. /; that is, it was sent
out first.
After going short distance the horses
began to founder in the going on an
up grade, and, with the exception OF the
Jew, the passengers got out and walked
ahead in order to beat down the snow
and make it easier for the animals.
The Jew declared he could not see-he
was snow blind, and remained in the
sleigh. On reaching the top of the hill

Detective Murphy thought the condi-

physician in the absence of DR.. Leggatt.
DIR. Sullivan sutured an ugly cash on
the top of the head. a second behind
the right ear and third on the right
cheek.
He also sutured an ugly laceration OF
the lid of the right eye.
Eye Tightly Closed.
The wound was such that the eye was
closed tightly. 1t was badly swollen
and discolored and the sight may be

In addition to the wounds described
DR.. Sullivan dressed numerous abrasions

JACK MULL!GAN IS ACCUSED

knives We're tlourshed. it is said, ana
there is evidence that at least one wa
used. A heavy sugar bowl and IA pair
of heavy boots also played prominent
parts.
AS a result of the alteration ArchiA
Worthington, son of former Judse
Worthington, is badly cut and bruised
about the face and head and has bodily
injuries which may prove more serious
than they now appear.
Jack Mulligan Named.
Worthington claims he was assaulted
by Jack Mulligan, his roommate, who is
we'll known to the police. Others who
witnessed the trouble in the saloon also
claim that Mulligan was the assailant
| of WOrthngton.
The latter is reluctant to talk abOu;
the affair; declares that he was at fault;
declines to prosecute Mulligan. and in
| every way would shield the man.
| The police are not satisfied, however,
and are looking for Muligan.
! The assault upon Worthington was the
! elimination Of a drunken argument. Ac-
| cordlng to witnesses, the men stripped
off their coats and were about to attack
each other with knives when bystanders
| interfered and an amcable settlement
was reached for a short while.
Blows Are Exchanged.
Shortly afterward another argument
followed. and blows We're exchanged.
Worthington says Mulligan was too
powerful for him to handle and he threw
sugar bowl at him.
A lively miXup followed, and Worth
| ington went to the floor, where he was
kicked in a frightful manner.
What the outcome of the affair would
have been had not persons in the saloon
interefered can only be conjectured, as
it Is said Worthington was beaten into
insensibility before his assailant could
be induced to desist from his assault on
the PROSTATE man.
The fight took place a few minutes
after 6 o'clock, just at the time When
the police We're changing shifts. Be.
cause of that policeman cOulu not b.
found and it was necessary to send t.
the city Jail for help.
Medical Aid Obtained.

in charge and sent for medical aid, bu
