Baseball Puzzle.

The following base ball puzzle is
now going the rounds and causing
considerable interest: Two teams,
A and B are playing. A is at the bat
in the last half of the ninth inning.
The score is 5 to in favor of b.
Two men are out, man on the second
and third bases. The batter hits the
ball in fair territory, but it is not q
hit. There is no put-out, no base
runner hit by batted ball, no assist,
no error and yet A wins the game by
score of to 5. Explain it.

A surveying corps in charge of En-
gineer Fox left this city yesterday
morning for Council where they will
begin at once the work of cross-sec-
tioning the P. & l. N. grade on the
proposed extension from that town
to Meadows. 1t has been found
that all the grade stakes set beyond
Council have disappeared and it will
be necessary to do the work all over
again. Four years ago between 15
and 20 miles of the grade was con-
structed which, of course, necessar-
lily requires a large amount of re-
building. Preparations are being
rapidly completed for beginning con-
struction work as soon as the rails
and other material arrives, which
it is expected will be within two
weeks. Sufficient ties have been or
dered, about 1s. 600 all told, to lay
six miles of the road and others are
being contracted for.
The first six miles of the road,
where the grade is light, will be built
by Japanese, but beyond that it will
be necessary to use heavy teams and

All IMPORTANT OPINION
INVOLVING TUNNEL RIGHTS
Judge Beatty Discusses Important
Questions in Noted 5ho5h0Rs
County filming (a5s,:

Judge Beatty, of the supreme court
at Boise, has handed down an opinion
in case from Shoshone county en-
titled Charles NJ. Baillie ct al VS..
Peter Larson ct al. The plaintiffs
asked for an injunction to restrain
the defendants from running mining
tunnel through plaintiffs ground.
He withholds the granting of an in
junction at present, his action here
after to be governed by the action OF
the parties.
The case involves the entire ques-
ton of mining tunnel rights in this
state and the judge wishes to have
that matter passed upon the appellate
court as eApeditiously as possible.
The defendants base their right to
run their tunnel upon section 1913
Revised U. S. Statutes. The right
claimed is found to be one that does
NOT accrue under the United States
law but may be granted by state law.
Under the laws of this state, it is
pointed out the owner of a mining
claim is granted certain easements,
upon compliance with the provisions
of the chapter. these including that
of running mining tunnels. Judge
Beatty finds the state has right
to enact such law, as shown by a
late decision of the supreme court OF
the United States in a case from Utah
involving the right Of man to have
a ditch enlarged so as TO convey water
10 has land. Judge Beatty goes
into the question in great detail and
concludes that the law of this state
grants the defendants the right they
clam. lie Is inclined 10 think,
however, that condemnation proceed
ings should be 1rst inapgpTateq'

Frank @. Ramsey, formerly United
States marshal for Idaho, being sue
ceeded by Marshal Rounds nearly two
years ago, was sued in the United
States court at Boise by District
Attorney N. M. Ruick, acting in the
name of and on behalf of the federal
government, for the sum of s6SS. IL,
which it is alleged Ramsey received
officially during his term of office and
has never accounted for. The Uni
ted States Fidelity & Guaranty COM
pany, which furnished Ramsey s bond,
is made a party defendant in the
action. Ramsey acted as marshal
from January IA, 1899, to June 80,
1902. and it is alleged in the COM
plaint filed by Mr.. Ruick that dur
ing that period "there came into his
hands and was received by him as
such United States marshal, certain
public moneys, the property OF the
limited States, to large amount and
of great value, to wit: s6ss. II, "
and that although demand has been
nooda both upon Ramsey and the bond
ing company, they have refused and
neglected to pay the sum to the
Government. Judgment is therefore
asked against the defendants for the
sum mentioned, together with a o
ner cent interest from the time Ram
sey received the money.
It is understood the alleged short
age is made up almost entirely OF
money advanced Ramsey as marshal
for various purposes and paid out by
him. but for which the bills rendered
were dissIloged, perhaps because Of

The doctor paid the Signal pleasant
visit while here and presented us with
one of these handsome souvenirs for
which he has our hearty thanks. On
account of the excessive rates charged
for exhibiting space at the Portland

CHARGING FALSE
ARREST. HE SUES.
A. Kosky Brings Action, One of the
Defendants Being the Sheriff
of BuncOmbe.
Especial TO News and Observer

y
Asheville, n. c., Nov. IA.
Kosky, a merchant tailor of this city.
has instituted suit for $4,000 against
the AsheVille grocery firm of ID. G.
holland Il Company, and suit for a
like sum against w. X. Gudger, indi-
Vidually and as justice of the peace,
F. NJ. Jones individually and as con-
stable of Asheville township, and
against J. Henry Reed individually
and as sheriff of Buncombe county.
These actions are based on allegations
of false arrest and Imprisonment and
originated in the arrest and impriSor-
ment of KOSky some time ago on Il
warrant sworn out by ID. G. holland
& Company charging that kosky or
Kosky's wife owed the firm a bill and
was endeavoring to dispose of his
property with intent TO defraud his
creditors.
Kosky secured his release from
prison on habeas corpus proceedings
instituted before Judge Mcneil some
three weeks ago.
Kosky declared that he did not owe
the grocery firm that the groceries
were charged to his wife and the bill
rendered. He denied that he was pre-
pairing to leave town and that he mad
any intent to. defraud his creditors.
The order releasing Kosky from inn
prisOnment was signed late one after
noon and handed to an AsheVille citi-
zen not interested in the case to give
to Sheriff Reed.
The courts order was not delivered
until the next day and KoSky was
forced to remain behind the bars after
his release had been ordered.

thanks to the Chamber for its express

when he was elected secretary, ten
years ago, it was a time OF great in
dustrial and commercial depression.
Then neither the Chamber nor the
citizens of Raleigh were in the mood
to undertake new movements; but
despite some discouraging and unfa-
vorable circumstances the Chamber
mad accomplished some things or
substantial and permanent benent TO
the city. The Chamber had been
composed of men who were determ~
ined to do things, and had eX exc
cuted themselves with good effect
He was glad that these men had
held the fort until all the good cit-
zens of Raleigh came together with
zeal and a new spirit to take up the
work, and conduct the Chamber now
In such a manner as may result in the
most possible good to the city. He
warmly endorsed the selection of Mr.
Phillips as his successor, and in con-
Guiding his remarks said that he keen
ly felt the expression of the Cham
ber's appreciation for him, but was
even more touched by the kind words
that had been uttered In apprecia-
ton of his services.
