cnIIsc Ie's Cllstian.

The regular Sunday evening raid in dis
enlargement Of the pie gov industry came
off in Chinatown rather earlier than usual
last night il was only $50 o'clock when
the detectives of the Elizabeth street station
went TO Doyers street. next door to the
Chinese Theatre, and took therefrom SIS
IN cash. suudry dominoes, counters and
chips and fourteen Cinnamon. The pikers
who crowd Chinatown Sunday nights IN
the hope OF seeing murder, sudden death and
trouble generally got a run for their money
last night
The industrious Hip Sings knew in adj
vance that game would open at Doyers
street last night. and mentioned 1t 10 the
police. Detectives Menchen. Powers, Cor
bett and CurRn went forth to raid.
The gambling rooms were on the second
floor The lookout, a little, wea2ened old
man. sat Mt the head OF the stairs and
watched the front door. The detectives
kept passing and repassing with the Sunday
night crowd, glancing up at the Waterman
at every turn. The lookout didn't expect
police 80 early. After a while he tucked
his hands ia his sleeves and appeared to
20 to sleep.
Tho detectives sneaked carefully up the
stairs and Curran, who was in the Lead,
caught him by tho throat with both hands
after tho manner of George Washington
Jones lifting a broiler-and Corbett plugged
his face with a handkerchief. He never
made a. much as a peep,
The door wasn't locked. The house, II
aprears. had arranged to clap the bar on
the door and get away with the apparatus
all at once upon hearing the signal from
the lookout.
The detectives simply opened the door
and stepped inside. The Chinese, intent
on the game never noticed them and gam
bled on. II was two or three minutes be-
fore the dealer glanced up and let out a
suuall and gathered half the money on the
table into his arms. The detectives Owed
at the table and held to SIS. There was
rush for doors and windows, but fourteen
of the players were herded together in the
centre of the room and roped in.
Now OF these eight wore American
clothes. and at least three had Sunday
school appearance. Most pious looking OF
all was Chin zee, who IL small, pookmnrked
and red.

Young called upon him twice with maps
OF the mine, and the second time brought
with him the engineer, whose name he

new NOR. SECURITIES SUIT.
MORE I'ENNER LITIGATION, MAY
BE; j. NAM LEWIS, COUNSEL.
The Continental Securities Co. Is the
Nominal PlalntiiI-Hili and Hartman
in Cahoots. It's Charsed-Nant stocks
Back With Extra Value Added.

WASHINGTON Feb. le.--In behalf Of the
Continental Securities Company. which
owns or controls. as trustee, $500 shares
of the stock of the Northern Securities
Company, James Hamilton Lewis will
file tomorrow a petition in the Supreme
Court asking permission to intervene and
file brief in the case OF T.. II. Hartman
and others against the Northern Securities
Company. This case involves the manner
of distributing tho Northerrl Pacific and
Great Northern stock held by the Northern
Securities Company.
c. II. Venner Il Co., brokers, Of Boston,
are supposed to be interested with the
Continental Securities Company in the
suit. The securities company is Boston
concern.
The petition alleges that the fight be-
tween Hill and Hartman is a mock; that
only moot questions are presented to the
court and that no matter which way the
court decides the stockholders, other than
Hill and Hartman. will suffer loss.
Further. it will be charged that Hill and
Hartman have a perfect understanding
and that tho only purpose of the suit Is to
enable them to divest themselves of liability
for an accounting 10 stockholders who
intrlsted their stock 10 them.
The case in which Hill and Hartman
are parties is on call for tomorrow ON
writ of certioraH to reve " the judgment
OF the Circuit Court OF Appeals denying a
writ Of injunction sued out by Hartman
TO prevent a pro rata distribution OF the
two stocks. 1t will. however. not be reached
until the latter part of the week, as there
are a number of cases ahead Of it.
The chief point which the intervening
party desires TO make is that there are
stockholders whose interests are being
altogether ignored and that for tho court
to pass only on the questions raised by
Hill and Hartman will be to assist them
in carrying out prearrangement which
cannot result adversely 10 Hill and Harri-
man no matter which way the court may
decide.
The Continental Securities Company win
assert that the court should decide that the
Northern Securities Company shall return
the Identical stock received III exchange
its own stock, together with such extra
value rs those stocks may have had in the
market between the time oil the delivery
of the stocks of the Great Northern and the
Northern Pacific and their redelIvery 20
those who surrendered them.
The assertion will be made by the inter-
venor that the persons who exchanged the
stock OF the constituent companies for
the stock Of the merging corporation are
entitled to recover the extra value tho
stocks had during the time they were held
by a corporation which the courts havo
held was illegal from tho beginning. The
claim Is made that that extra value con-
stitutes liability Of which Hill and Harri-
man will be discharged If the court passes
only upon the questions raised by thcm.

down or climb up the pole after her. Boys
secured the neighborhood, but couldn't
find lineman.
On Sunday evening n boy came running
up with several lengths of kite cord on the
end Of which he had tied baseball. A
good throw, after several failures, put the
cord across the beam. Then a neighbor
brought IA clothesline, tied IL on the end OF
the cord and pulled that over the beam
Another neighbor brought n piece OF meat
and another n basket. The basket was
tied on and pulled up close 10 the kitten.
The half starved tabhy looked ut the
meat while and then jumped into the
basket The man holding the end Of the
rope let 20, and the kitten started to come
down with rush. But even then she was
too frightened to realize what was being
done for her, and bumped out Of the basket
when IL was about twenty-five feet from
the ground The boy who owned her
picked her up and took her into his home.
The crowd that had been watching the
kitten and guessing her fate all day cheered.
and a kodak fend snapped her az she
plunged through the air. The kitten mp
parently did not lose more than three Of
her lives and Ia sure to recover.

Peuper. Once Had Millions.

Edward w. Mitchell, at one time
a leading figure on the Chicago
board Of trade, organizer Of cor
ner in wheat in 1868, and once
worth millions, died recently at
the county hospital in Chicago, at
70 years old, pauper
His fall came in 1870, only two
years after he had cornered the
wheat market and made fortune.
Since then he has lived in the hope
that one day he would regain his
former fortune. But his failure
had so shaken him that he never
regained his position, but grew
poorer and poorer, until in recent
years he depended entirely upon
the charity of his friends. Mem
bers of the board of trade made up
a subscription to help defray the
expenses Of the funeral.

We have law now that makes
it compulsory for fruit growers to
stamp out any pest that may APP
pear in their orchards, and one Of
the purposes Of my trip over the
country at this time is to serve
notice on people who have such
pests in their orchard that they
must spray, and to tell them when
to do it and what mixture to use.
| have found the San Jose scale in
one or two places and the growers
are prepared to wage war this
spring on the pest.
Juliaetta | have quarantined
every vineyard because of the grape
phylloxera, which has made it's APP
pearanse in the root form. 1t is a
peculiar fact that the winged var
iety which attacks the plant alb ove
the ground has not made it's APP
pearance. The quarantine will not
prevent the sale of the grape crop,
but will prevent the sale of any
cuttings or plants"

Butter Must BE StenciIed.

Idaho has the best pure food
law in the United States" said A.
Mcpherson, state pure food com
missioner, who was in Lewiston
Wednesday. "Our law is almost
an exact counterpart Of the bill
which Senator Hepburn now has
before congress. / have received a
letter from the head chemist in the
chemistry department at Washing
ton. D. G., in which he gives our
state credit for having the best
pure food law.
"The new law as passed by the
last legislature, gives the board of
pure food commissioners the power
to adopt the standard of purity.
We are adopting the same stand
ards as those Of the nation and a
bulletin will be issued during April
from my office which will give all
the standards. Many, of these are
very severe as compared with our
old law, but they give far better
protection to the consumer as well
as the dealer. 1t is a we'll known
fact that Oregon and Washington
have copied our irrigation laws,
and that Utah has copied our hor-
ticultural laws, and now we have
pure food law good enough for any
state to copy
"One OF the new features Of the
pure food law is that every person
who sells butter must secure a
stencil brand from my Office. 1t
makes no difference whether it be
large creamery or farmers wife
who takes five pounds week to
country store. We can make no
determinations in the law. The
stencils will cost very little The
law provides that they shall not
cost more than one dollar each and
they will not reach that price.
"The fruit outlook in southern
Idaho was never better. In the
pan handle the outlook is very fair,
a slight damage having been done
by the frost. Unless the unfore-
seen happens, Idaho's fruit crop
this year will net the growers 81
100000.
