WHAT PLAINTIFFS
 CLAIM ARE FACTS

Yesterday afternoon George H. Neale of Leavenworth and Neale, at torneys for Martin O'Hare and Maur- ice Denn. in the suit brought against the South Bisbee Copper Mining and Townsite Improvement company, was asked to give resume of the com plant filed in the superior court of Los Angeles county, California. He said
 The South Bisbee company was or ganized November ', 1897, with s5,- 000,000 capital stock. Martin, Rowan. Gilmore, Jones. Weidner, Fairchild and Lewis were the promoters. Martin ob- tain from the plaintiffs and various other persons options to locate certain mining claims, and located them in his own name. Martin acted as agent for the corporation, and the options and locations were the corporation s property.
 "On January 2s, 1898, Martin trans ferred these to the corporation. and the then directors, being the promo ters, issued all the stock to Martin, and then immediately made division of the all the stock, Martin turning back his certificate and issuing new certificates as has been stated, which is alleged to have been done fraudu- lently. The stock so issued was there after held in trust for the corpora tion.
 At the time of obtaining said op- tion, Martin and the promoters. repre- scented and agreed that all the stock not used in acquiring property, which should remain in the treasury, should be sold from time to time, and the proceeds used in development, until the corporation become dividend pay ing, and that the promoters should ge; no stock until that time. They made the same representation to purchasers of stock The corporation never has been dividend paying.
 "The promoters and their trans ferees have returned certain portions of the stock to the treasury, but al the property that the corporation ever acquired was paid for with stock or the proceeds. All the stock so re turned does not exceed 2,129,57e shares, and the balance is now claim ed by the promoters or their trans ferees. who are the various defend ants
 "The plaintiffs did not know until December, 1901, that the defendants claimed there was no stock in the treasury, and they commenced an ex animation of the books and found out these matters.
 The prayer is to cancel all stock so held by the defendants, and dam ages for expenses and counsel fees tc the amount s25 5000"
 Attorney Neale stated at the close that the plaintiffs intend to use ev cry means in their powr to bring the suit before the courts, and obtain 2 decision as soon as possible.

A Nebraska judge was asked how it
was that the citizens of his state were
nicknamed bug eaters"
1.-THE name is applied to us some
times in the east" answered the judge
frankly. at originated many years
ago in peculiar way, incident to a
speech Back in 1874 swarm of grass
hoppers descended upon our fair state
and despoiled everything. Crops were
swept away before this army Of in
sects, and the people were left desti-
tute. An appeal went up for aid, and
some of our eloquent Nebraskans jour
neyed east to plead our cause. One Of
these eloquent citizens in a fight of
speech declared that the voracious
grasshoppers had even eaten the tires
off wagon wheels and were devouring
the railroad tracks. Why, our people
have nothing but grasshoppers and
bugs was the climax OF this orators
speechr' exclaimed the judge.
"And now you have the history of
the sobriquet of bug eaters,'" he con-

A man past fifty can do with less

The young man can sprint" but he
cannot "stay" like the man with brain

Elderly men are less temptable. They
are of fixed moral habit. Appetite and

taken into account
Elderly men are more loyal as

So far as research has been able to
determine glass was in use 1000 years
before the birth of Christ and was
even then not in its infancy by any
manner of means. In the Slade collec-
ton ut the British museum there is the
head of lion nodded in glass, bearing
the name of an Egyptian king of the
eleventh dynasty. This is the Oldest
specimen of pure glass bearing any
thing like a date now known to exist.
The invention now known as "bleez-
ing" the mode of vanishing pottery
with thin film of glass, is believed to
date back to the first Egyptian dynas-
ty. Proof of this is found in the pot
terry beads, glass glazed, found in the
tombs of the age above referred TO.

hA-0UNcTuUTS buikGleys WHO IS d
 packer of the small townsmen in the constitutional convention is out with
 a new scheme. His plan is to have a house of 257 members and a senate of
 36. If it is adopted Waterbury will have four representatives instead of 1 two, as now, and which has been cut
 to one as voted by the present con l yention. In this connection the out
 look in speaking of minority rule says 1 haye won victory so remarkable in fact. that it may prove more costly l than defeat. By a small majority 1 the constitutional convention has
 voted that every town-whether it's population be less than one thousand 1 or more than one hundred thousand { shall elect but one delegate to the house of representatives. Eighty-hve i members constituted the majority in favor of this proposition-but these
 eighty-five represent less than one
 sixth of the population of the state! 1 The fve-sixths of the people of the state whose representatives voted
 against this proposition are oyerruled ] and have no constitutional remedy. It 1 is a great victory for the small towns, l but it is a victory which will rankle I in the minds of the victims until the
 small towns are forced to make con
 sessions greater than those which
 would now satisfy the cities and pre-
 serve good feeling toward the small town men and measures. The people
 of the cities will control the senate
 according to the plan agreed upon by
 the convention, and it is to the in- Eterest of the small towns, as well as their duty to remove cause for sec
 tional antagonisms. The new senate is to consist of sixty senators distrib- uted by districts according to popula tion instead of acres. The city of
 Hartford, for example, which is al- lowed but a single representative, will
 choose six senators. The change in
 the senate, increasing it's membership
 from twenty -four to sixty, is reported to have been displeasing to the "cor
 poration group" which wished a small legislature. The reduction ill the size of the house to one delegate from each toWn-or 16S in all as
 against 255-is probably satisfactory to this group. According to the Con- necticut correspondent of the New York ''Evening Post," however, the corporate interests were chiefly con- cerned in defeating propositions to prohibit special legislation and to make mandatory jury trial of damage suits. At present in Connecticut-though nowhere else in English-speaking countries-the defendant can have such suits transferred to q bench of judges, and the corporations were anxious to preserve this privilege
 When ballot was reached at the close of last week, majority voted to continue the present system.

POLITICS IN TURKEY.
Every Branch of the Government
 Steeped in Corruption.
aassan Pnshn, Minister of Marine. Could Give Our Own Ward Rum- nsers Some Points-An Hon~
 est Grand vizicr.

According to the official register, the Turkish navy consists of IS cruisers from 2,000 to S,Oo0 tons, l2 coast defense ships, six gunboats and 26 torpedo boats, but every one of them is. useless except few small gunboats stationed at different ports along the coast. The annual allot- ment of money for the supplies of the navy is about S3,2o0,oo0, but, ac- cording to the popular impression, very small part of it is ever applied to the purpose for which it is iIl- tended. The navy yard on the Golden Horn is the most extraordinary ma rine morgue in existence. Long rows of vessels of the most antiquated pat tern lie side by side, stripped of their machinery and equipments and fit only to be knocked to pieces for junk.
 Hassan Pasha has the reputation of being the richest man and the most corrupt man in the Turkish govern ment. He is supposed to be worth $40,00o0,000 or $50O00,000, all of which he has acquired while in the service of the government. He has great in- fuence with the sultan. The latter considers him one of his most loyal and efficient officers and trusts him implicitly. It is said that Hassan would like to resign and enjoy his money in London or Paris, but dare not do so. The moment he suggested any such idea the sultan's suspicious would be excited, and it would be q 4 s.-z L.
 cause his successor would discover what has been going on in the navy department, and Hassan's head and his money would both be in danger.
 Many other pashas are very rich, but they send their money out of the country as a precaution, for they never know when they may forfeit their sovereign's favor, and that usu-

ally means the confiscation of their
 estates and perhaps decapitation or imprisonment for life. When prom ! inent man disappears in Turkey no questions are asked. 1t is impolitic 1 to be inquisitive.
 l Said Pasha, the grand vizier, says the Chicago Record Herald, is believed to be an honest man. He is one of
 the few prominent officials of the government who has not amassed a fortune while in office. For that and
 other reasons he has many bitter and revengeful enemies. Six years ago, when he was grand vizier, he en- deavored to punish certain infuen- tial pashas for robbing the govern ment. They engaged in a conspir- acy against him and got the ear of the sultan. He believed their statements, and sent the Kapu-aghasi, chief of the white eunochs and first officer of the imperial bed chamber the sultan's most confidential man to summon Said Pasha to his pres ence. The kapu-aghasi is always an unwelcome messenger, because the sultan trusts him when he will trust nobody else. When he carries mes- sage it has unusual significance.
 Said Pasha understood the situa- tion, and, instead ofigoing to the pal ace, sought an asylum at the Brit ish embassy, where Lord Dufferin, then ambassador, gave him protec- tion. Nobody knew what had become of the grand, vizier until after seven days, when he sent carefully pre- pared report of his proceedings and the motives of the conspiracy against him to the sultan by the hand of the British ambassador. The latter explained to the sultan his ideas of the case, and vouched for Said Pasha as an honest, truthful and loyal man. The sultan was not convinced. but agreed to accept Said Pasha's resig- nation without further proceedings. and gave formal assurance that if his former prime minister left the embassy and returned to his own home he would not be injured. Lord Dufferin notified the sultan that the British government would hold him responsible for any injury that Said Pasha might suffer, and that in case of his death not even plea of sick ness would be accepted.
 From that hour Said Pasha was the safest man in Turkey. The sul- tan sent his own physician and two of his most trusted aids-de-camp to live in his house to protect him, and, adopting Lord Dufferin's suggestion, made an investigation of the charges against him. Nobody knows how he got at the facts, but he executed some of his new favorites, sent others into exile and finally restored Said Pasha to power He is still prime minister.

live in Rome and are at the head of the sacred Roman congregations They decided to invite all their non- resident brother princes of the church to convene in the eternal city as a sym bol of the unity of the Catholic hier- archy and their devotion to the SUI preme pontiff.
 The gathering will be almost unique in the history of the church. The cardinals heretofore have been con- volzed only for the holding of an ecu menical council or for conclave on the death of pope. The conclave is often held hurriedly, and cardinals residing at long distances from Rome have rarely any hope of being in time to personally cast their vote for the election of the new pope.
 Alone of all members of the Cath ollie church the Cardinal Camerlingo is permitted to make provision before reigning pope's death for the hold ing of the next conclave-the meet ing of the college of cardinals to elect pope, and such provision must be only of material kind.
 At the gathering of the cardinals next June no discussion of the subject will, of course, be made among those directly interested.
