Miss Gwendolen Overton, the author
Of Captains Of the World" has come
upon very unusual experiences during
more than half of her thirty years.
The daughter of Captain Gilbert Over
ton was born in what on the frontier
passes for fort. She has lived In
nearly all the army posts Of Arizona
and New Mexico. She took to burro-
back in her tenderest years. Soon she
was promoted to mule, and by and
by she became flashed and noted
horsewoman. Much of her compare
tive horizon is doubtless due to her
education in France. but the larger
preparation for writing "The Heritage
OF Unrest" her novel of the Southwest,
was acquired (if unconsoiously) In
that lonely but masterful stories OF
the year 1900. It ran through three
or four editions, but 1t made deeper
impression on critics and readers of
culture than the number of copies In

The Sioux Falls Argus-Leade
is devoting too much space to a
discussion Of its ownership. The
question is not an important one
to the public. If the Argus
Leader devotes itself to the State
OF South Dakota using every ef-
fort to build up the states enter
prlses and promote the best well
fare of the people without regard
to the private ends OF any set of
politicians or other selfish inter
ests, then the public will not care
who owns it. But if on the other
hand it Shall devote its energies
to the defense of any political
clique without regard to the real
interests of the state the public
will condemn and it will lose in
huence whether owned BY Sen
ator kittredge or not.
It is doing things that counts.
Let the A Argus-Leader get busy
and the question Of ownership
will soon settle itself.

One of the troubles of the couu-

One of the troubles of thecouu-
try editor is to learn how to use
peoples title without giving Of
fense. One justice of the peace
will be deeply offended if you do
not refer to him as Judge" while
the next one would think the title
given him in derision; half the
school teachers will expect to be
referred to as professor" while
the other half if so designated
would cut the editor dead the
the next time they met him.
One old resident looks proud
when you call him colonel
while another would feel himself
insulted. And SO it goes and we
never know whether the next
issue will make a new friend or
new enemy. But there is one
redeeming feature-newspaper
favors, and sometime offenses,
are soon forgotten so we manage
to round out the year.

THE MOUNTAIN FIDDLER.
His Music and His Instrument and tho
WAY He PLAYS Ii.

There is hidden among the noun
tains of Kentucky, Tennessee and
the Carolinas a people OF whose in
ner nature and its musical express
sion almost nothing has been said.
The music of the southern noun
taineer is not only peculiar, but,
like himself, peculiarly American.
Nearly all mountaineers are sing
ers. Their unframed voices are of
good timbre, the women's being
sweet and high and tremulous and
their sense of pitch and tone and
harmony remarkably true. The fid-
dler or the banjo player is well
treated and beloved. among them,
like the minstrel of feudal days.
The mountain fiddler rarely cud-
dies his instrument under his chin
He sets it against the middle of his
chest and, grasping his bow near
the middle, wields it with a juggling
movement quite unlike the long
sweep of the accomplished violin
lists bow arm. 1t is sometimes com
plained that their playing is too
rapid aad ierky, but tile tunes are
composed for this tempo, and nc
other would be found suitable.
Prominent among the elements
of this music is that leading Aneri-
can characteristic, humor; not the
sparkling wit of the French nor the
broad, clumsy jollification Of the
Teuton nor sarcasm nor irony, but
the keen, wholesome, freakish
American love of a laugh, and il
| peryades, directly or indirectly, al
most every line. The music, too
while usually minor, is not of &
plaintiye tendency. There are few
laments, no sobhing and wailing
In this it differs radically from
that of savage peoples. Neither has
it any martial throb or clang. 1t i.
reflective, meditative, with a vein o.
4 genial and sunny philosophy. The
tunes chuckle, not merrily, but il
amused contemplation. - Harper

Allow Him to Go to Sea

John Brady. alias ~Coclxy" Brady,
was shipped to sea yesterday on q ves-
sci bound for the seal fisheries in ST.
IBERIA. He pleaded guilty in Judge
Lawlor's court about two weeks ago
to charge OF burglary. after Thomas
Sbarboro, who was arrested on the
same charge, had been acquitted by
jury. Brady's father and mother
begged the Judge to allow him TO go Ok
probation. declaring that he was gooc
boy, but when under the influence OF
liquor he became crazy and did not
know what he was doing The Judge
consented on condition that he go away
on a deep water vessel. The parents
gave a bond OF $1,000 and it was ar
ranged that Brady would leave on -
vessel for Siberia that sailed yesterday.
The action of the Judge has caused a
good deal of comment in the District
Attorneys Office and in the Police De-
partment in view OF Brady's past his
tory. Since 1896 he has served three
terms in the County Jail for petty lar
ceny and two terms in San Quentin for
burglary. At the time of his arrest for
breaking into the butcher shop OF A.
Geantit, 935 Montgomery avenue, on the
night Of December IS last he fought
Policemen Lloyd and Stelzner, the ar
resting officers, and attempted TO brain
them. For these reasons the action OF
the Judge in allowing Brady to go on
probation IS not looked upon with
favor.

Besides Being Kicked.
Albert O'Brien, a waiter in restau-
rant at $50 Sixth street, was attacked
by three men on Sunday morning. He
received a blow behind the right ear
that left him in a state of unconscious
ness for two hours. He was also kick
ed in the ribs. He is confined to bed.
but as soon as he is able to leave the
house he will swear out warrants for
the arrest of his assailants.
About o'clock O'Briep went to a
saloon across the street from the
restaurant to buy ten cents worth of
whisky for another waiter The three
men were standing in the doorway of
Strock & Lucey's saloon, 53f Sixth
street. When he returned to the
restaurant they followed him and com
menced to call him offensive names.
He told them he did not want to have
any trouble and one of them struck
him the blow behind the right ear
While O'Brien> lay unconscious on
the floor his assailants kicked him in
the ribs. When they recognized that
he was unconscious they carried him
into Strock & Lucey's saloon and tried
TO revive him by pouring whisky down
his throat. Then they rang for the
ambulance and had him taken to the
Central Emergency Hospital
Detective Ryan, who is working on
the case, says that one of O'Brien's as
sailant was a brother of Saloon-keeper
Lucey, and that the only reason for
the assault was that O'Brien did not
buy the whisky at Strock & Lucey's

more violence than was essential to
their subjugation.
There were WitneSSeS-d swarm OF
them-but their impartiality was ques-
t1onable, as each of them had been
summoned to testify in behalf of either
the complainant or the defendants.
About dozen matrons were ready and
willing to swear that Mrs. Robinson S
alleged grievance was a figment of her
imagination, while as many other wives
and mothers were eager to swear that
Mrs. Calvin and Mr.. and Mrs. Hurley
were nelghborhoOd pests. But only the
testimony of Mrs. Robinson was heard.
and it was to the effect that her peace
was nightly routed by wild orgies in
the residence of the defendants They
drank deeply of beer, Mrs. Robinson
declared. and while under the influence
OF the beverage their conduct was sim

The Judge pronounced Mr. Hurley
guilty of peace disturbance and resist

Mrs. Hurley and granted Mrs. Galnin'
request for jury trial. So the twenty
four disappointed matrons may yet be

HI. j. Haley's apartment in the lodg-

divided from the chambers on each
side by seven-foot high wooden parti-

brate the anniversary of st. Patrick 8
birthday in seclusion he gave no heed
to what his next-door neighbors might
think of the celebration. His prear-
ranged programme consisted of liquid
refreshments and vocal music. and with

upon his couch and sang songs appro-

Michael Commit Sues City
for the Ninth Time for
Damage to His Property
LOT FLOODED YEARS AGO
Quarter of a Century of Liti-
CATION Follows Inunda-
tion of North District

For the ninth time Michael Con-
niff has called a jury to hearken to
his plant against the city and coun-
ty of San Francisco. Michael owns
2 1ex60 foot lot on Houston street.
of Montgomery avenue near Jones
street. In 1880, when the city laid
out Montgomery avenue, it changed
the natural drainage avenues of the
district and Commits lot was flooded.
He forthwith filed suit against the
city and county and recovered -judg-
ment for $3.50 damages. AS the nuis-
snce was not corrected in due time
Connin filed a second suit against the
city. recovering $500 damages. 1t was
then that the city determined that it
was high time something was done to
stay Connif in his judgment recovering
career and IL was determined to raise
the level OF Conniff's lot to that of the
surrounding neighborhood.
The lot was declared q public
dumping ground and in their zeal to
aid the city the garbage men overdid
things and the lot soon reared itself
ten feet above the neighborhood.
Then Commit went to court again and
recovered a verdict for $141 damages.
The city protested that il had done its
duty by filling the lot, but Conniff de-
MED the allegation, saying his priced
property had not been filled with soil,
as il should have been, but had been
made the last resting place of the re-
mains of dogs, cats, bed springs, tin
cans and garbage that reared them
selves, an unsanitary monument, ten
feet above the surrounding landscape.
So he sued again and recovered $2T5
damages. The city went to the Su-
preme Court with the case, but Con-
riff recovered a judgment declaring
that the city had foisted a continuing
nuisance upon his property. Thus
encouraged Conniff again went to the
courts and recovered a fifth judgment
for $3.50 damages. Since that date
more and now the case is up again
before Judge Kerrigan and a jury for
adjudication.
Assistant City Attorneys Partridge
and Smith are defending the case for
the city. They say the Board of
Works has made borings on the prop
erty and found that in filling the lot
the city established a firm foundation
through which no waters seep and
that il has done all il can do Con-
niff, however. wants the lot put in bet
ter shape. This is the ninth suit, but
he saws there viii be nineteen more
unless the city does the right thing,
and in his effort to make il he has al
ready cost it about $4,000 in judg-
ments and costs. Just what view of
the question the present jury will
take Of the question remains to be
seen. but it is said that its action will
largely determine the sequel of the
long story Of Commit VS.. the city and
county Of San Francisco.
