left for the mountains last Sunday
morning at twelve five. They took
French leave, evidently they were
ashamed to go in daylight. So il
goes without saying g-,the wicked
love the darkness of night better
than the light of day. They are go
ing to hunt Old Bruin in his native
haunts and we expect to hear some
great bear stories when they return.
Mr.. Taylor told them there plenty
of bear around his place in Scott
Valley; and that there were only
seventeen thousand people out there
this year hunting mostly huckle-
berries.
Reilly took with him Winchester,
a shotgun two six shooters, a pair
of dancing pumps, twenty-five bottles
of perfume. and his "claw-hammer
suit" He expects to show the long
haired youths of Scott Valley how
"we-uns" dress and smell in En-
NETT.
Gamage did not take any gun He
is at peace with Bruin. He took his
fishing tackle and forty seven dozen
left handed razors to sell to seekers
after pleasure. Charley has an eye
to business.

with essays and treaties on the
beauties and advantages of being an

that he will give few lectures when

We, also, got glance at what the
Editor took with him. Among the

We do not know what this Liquid
was whether whisky,
'um, gin or beer, or water. But it
8 hardly probable of its being water;
because there is plenty of water where
here is fish" But we know why

! great penchant for playing "solo,"

away from the "best solo

But we will fool him. We will not
lisclose any of our points of want

Kid Johnson, who pitched such
remarkable ball for Weiser during
the past season in the Southern
Idaho league, is now doing the stunt
for Washington. D. C. He won the
second game in which he participat-
ed for, that team right handily.
The management of the Washington
aggregation believes he has revealed
the most promising youngster so far
uneartaed this season. Eastern fans
are very enthusiastic over his great
record and present work. They
have nicknamed him the 'Weiser
Wonder" the name is apt and well
merited by Johnson. Authorities on
baseball science, predict brilliant
future in the big major leagues for
the young man. Others are of the
sanguine opinion that with a little
coaching and his natural ability, he
will easily surpass any twirler on the
slab at present with the big fellows.
His second game was against Cleve.
land, and only four hits and two
runs were made from his delivery.
The result was 7 to 2 in favor of
Washington.

\ SERIOUS" PAPER
Man Couldn't Speak Good English
 and Got Into Wrong Office.

A man who couldn't speak Eng fish very well made all the fair type- writers in the city clerks ofice blush yesterday afternoon. He wanted to declare his intentions and said 50 to the clerk who waited upon him. II wonder what he means" inquired the young woman, blushing and looking helplessly at another employe who had stopped hammering on her type- writer to find out what was up. When she was told what the stranger had said she laughed and remarked that 1t was a marriage license he was af- ter and suggested that he be directed over to the town clerks office. But the man knew he was misunderstood and then he changed his question and claimed that he was anxious to get a serious" paper. For some reason or other this appeared to con. firm the suspicious of the stenogra ph. CTS that 1t was marriage license he meant and they all said 50, but final ly 1t developed that the man wanted to declare his intention to become a citizen and he was shown the way to the court house on Leavenworth street. After all. perhops the girls were not very wide of the mark when they considered marriage license a "serious" paper.

WANT APARTMENTS
Slmonsville Firemen Ask 10 Be
 Exempt From Paying Tax.

At a meeting of the committee on abatements last night favorable ac- tion was taken on the application of the Simonsville Fire company. ask ing that the members of the organi- zation be exempt for the payment of military tax. The law applies to members of volunteer fire companies and so long as this is so there is no reason why it should not apply to independent companies like the one in Simonsville as to volunteer fireman under the jurisdiction of city boards. All the petitioners for abate- ment of poll tax on the ground that they are not citizens of the United States failed to convince the con- mittee that they don't come under the law and 1t was decided to rec ommend that they be given leave to withdraw. The committee scarcely knows what to do with owners of pianos. In many cases people who have such instruments claim they are only leased and the agents of the firms where they were bought deny that they own them, either. They belong to parties from out of town and inasmuch as the right parties didn't happen to be located when the lists were being made out there Is nothing to do now but abate the levy made against those in whose houses they were found, but who claim that they do not own them. There Is a plano in almost every house in town and two or three in some, but you might as we'll look for a needle in a bundle of straw as hunt for the owners. There must be something wrong in the law that makes such a thing possible and now is good time to remedy 1t while the legis- lature is In session.

TALKED TO POLICEMEN.
Prssideut Eliot says Incrsass Police
 Force Iustead of Army.


 Boston, Jan 18.-Continusd inter- national peace depends, not upon the equipment of large armies. but upon the extension of the police force. Is the opinion expressed by President Charles w. Eliot of Harvard univer- sity before 300 policemen at the Bos- ton Social club last night in an ad- dress on Mature of Police Duty and the Function of tho Police in Modern Society,"" President Eliot paid high tribute to the policemen and set their calling above that of the soldier.
 The abstinence from war and the establishment of continued peace among civilized nations" said Presi- dent Eliot, depends not upon the equipment of large armies, but upon the extension of the police force. The world needs an international court and we have just begun to get 1t. Now We want an international police force back of 1t. For, without a force to back it, the international court will be almost worthless. Cut down the armies and extend the po- lice forces, and then will come the perpetual international peace" The police force, continued the speaker, keeps order and seeks not to destroy but to help humanity. The calling of the soldier and sailor, on the other hand, Is to kill and destroy Now" went on President Eliot what an immense advantage your calling has over that of the soldier It Is going to survive that of the soldier; 1t is going to remain neces. sity of civilized society when the art of the soldier shall have at last dis. appeared except as he renders a DO. lice service"

Blinding Snow Cause of Freight
 Wreck Near Plantsville.
 Southington. Jan 18.-During . blinding snow storm here yesterday a north bound extra freight crashed into the rear of the way freight, south of Plantsville station, and blocked travel for over six hours. The fagman was called in on the way freight and had just given the signal to go ahead when he saw the engine of the other freight bearing down upon him. The engineer of the train said he did not see the freight until after. he had turned the curve and then he shut of the power and set the brakes, telling the fireman to jump. They both jumped and only received slight bruises in so doing.
 Inc pilot of the engine struck the caboose, throwing 1t upon a fiat car loaded with iron for a local concern. and tipped the stove in the caboose. This set fire to the caboose and the fire was so hot that 1t set box car loaded with coke n fire. The Plantsville fremen responded, but were unable to be of much assistance as their hose would not reach the fire, but the fire was soon extin- guished by the bystanders.

Row Over tho Question of Member.

ship in Unions.
 New York, Jan 1S.---The trouble between the Hamburg-American Steamship company and its men over the question of membership in la bor union resulted in the resignation lof all the junior navigating officers of the steamer Moltke just before she sailed from Naples. 1t was learned when the steamer arrived here to- day.
 According to the story brought by the steamer, none of the men were members of the union, but the line ofacials insisted that they sign an agreement to the effect that they would not become affiliated with the seamen's organization. This the new men refused to do and left the Moltke and returned to Hamburg. The Moltke appeared to have re- ceived little or no damage as re- suit of her collision with the steam CT Princess Irene which fouled her while she was lying at anchor at Naples. It is believed that the Prin- zess Irene also escaped serious injury as she resumed her voyage to this port soon after the accident.
