TIE Appeal.


Mr. Pou Immediately entered It
prayer for reversal of the decree for
the following reasons:
Cd Because the bill was filed and
suit brought by a stakeholder in q
corporation against the corporation,
founded upon rights which, had they
existed, might and properly should
have been asserted by the corporation,
without averring, showing and setting
forth that such parties, plaintiff, had
made sufficient efforts to secure such
action as they desired upon the part
Of the managing directors and stock
holders. and because of their failure
to obtain relief within the corporation
itself, as is a principal of equity and
rs is particularly set forth by equity
rule 81.
Cd Because the bill of complaint
is without equity and does not Justify
the appointment Of q receiver the
granting OF the injunction, and the
making of the orders complained Of.
90 Because the bill of complaint
does no: pray for any specific and
particular relief, to which relief the
appointment of a receiver would con-
tribute or be ancillary remedy or pro-
ceeding.
(4.) Because the appointment of
a receiver in this action was improvi-
tclilIy IilduG anu NGpilNco hCLSilueiut
Of the oosscsslCn and control of the
property, and is, therefore. an inva-
sion of and q deprivation of it's rights.
(5) Because the court struck out
the demurrer of said defendant and
refused to permit any amendment
thereto or the filing by counsel of q
certificate of good faith if such were
required by the rule"
go Because the appointment of q
receiver to take charge of The prop
erty of the defendant and the grant
ing of the restraining Orde@5 and in
junction iii this case were not justi-
fed by the bill, answer and affidaVits
& as Because the court failed to
aljudge, us defendant alleges it should
have adjudged; that the complainant
was estopped from complaining of any
of the matters and things set forth
i'm the bill, for that he had ratified the
same either expressly through the
vote of his proxy, or by long con-
tinued acquiescence in the same, and
that he cannot be heard now, after
having voted for all the matters and
things which he complains of, and
having approved and ratified the same
after they were done, and acquiesced
in the same for long period of time,
he cannot now in equity be heard to
complain uf them.
go Because the court refused 10
dismiss compliments bill, whereas
the court should have decreed that the
bill be dismissed for the reasons
among others, set forth in the pre-
cedirg assignment of error, and as
being without equity or merit.
This prayer being of course refused,
appeal was taken to the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals.

When court re-convened after am
ner Gen. Gilmer submitted affidaVits
in support of the allegation in the an
swers one by Henry X. Bryan, one
by $. l.. Dill, and a number by private
Stockholders and bondhOlders, to the
effect that the road is insolVent and
that the appointment Of receiver is
entirely unnecessary and would even
he prejudicial TO the interests of the
road. There was one from President
Jas. A. Bryan, one from Roadmaster
w. Z. Carlyle.
Mr.. Pou then offered the affidavits
that had been submitted by Judge
Womack upon another aspect of the
case. He also offered as an affidavit
the answer of the road to the bill Of
complaint.
Mr.. Pou then offered for the road
as an evidence of good faith a bond
to the complainants in order that the
appointment of a receiver might not
be necessary and upon condition that
q receiver be not appointed.
Can't Day asked when the stock
holders met and authorized such bond.
Mr.. Pou said he was unable to state
that, but the security would be unques-
toned Capt Day submitted that the
defendant had no right to make such
proposition, that it was ultra wires.

which was emitted from those
baskets, caused by ancient hens
eggs. Now John did not want

Boston Boomers Defeated.

The original Boston Boomers,
eight girls and one man, played
in this city Thursday afternoon,
meeting defeat at the hands OF
the Great Northern base ball
team, by a score OF 10 to 2. A
very large crowd witnessed the
game at the base ball park and
thoroughly enjoyed it. The boys
did not give the girls one advant-
age, fighting hard for every point,
thus the uneven score. A twelve
foot canvas fence was placed
around the diamond and grand
stand seats, carried by the COM
pany, were arranged. The gate
receipts amounted to $237.75,
IS per cent OF which the girls re-
ceived. The Boomers also re-
ceived $75 for the sale OF seats.
The game was the most unique
ever played here. The girls play
ed for all they were worth and
there were five excellent players.
The boys who were charmed by
the little red headed girl with
black piercing eyes, who held
down third base, will be chagrin-
ed to learn that she was a young
man well up in the art of femin-
inc coyness. At least that is
what was reported generally after
the game was over. Many be-
lieve that the little pitcher, also
was Of the masculine gender.
"When a woman will she will,
and when she won't she won't, }"
was demonstrated when the UNI
pire, Clayton Cox, ordered one
OF the girls to leave the field, say
ing she was out. She had run
from home plate to second and
missed first base by ten feet. She
thought that Mr.. Cox did not
see her ruse, and perhaps he did
not. At any rate, she sat down
on second base, turned her back
to the umpire and wrote in the
dust. The crowd cheered and
cheered and the player went on
to third.
These were the original Boston
Boomers, which have played all
over the United States for 10
years. Two Of the players have
been with the team for eight
years. The manager states that
a man catcher is employed, be-
cause no woman has ever been
found who had nerve to stand
behind a bat. The girls some
times play three games in a day.
At Devils Lake they played two
games the Fourth.
