RObbing! Granafy Burg

Judge Pollock came to Washburn
Saturday morning and the case
against Peter T.. Schultheis, for
blind pigging was called up. The
defendant in this case, after trial
at the last term Of court which re-
suited in a disagreement of the jury,
had filed an affidavit of prejudice
against Judge Winchester and also
against Mclean county.
@ Judge Pollock was thereupon
called in the case and passed upon
the affidavit for change Of venue by
denying the motion. The defendant
was not present and a bench war
rant was issued for his arrest and
the arrest of the witness, Mccoy,
who is under $500 bond. Even
though the defendant was not pres
ent, a jury was called into the box
and examined as to its qualifications.
At:2 o'clock jury was secured and
the evidence was adduced. At 8
O'clock the jury retired and in five
minutes a verdict Of guilty was
brought in Mr.. Dewitt, of Purcell &

tongue except a man who came with
the witnesses. a relative of one Of
the principal witnesses, and he was
objected to by the defense. a.
Mr.. Jacob Burck came up from
Wilton and served in the dificult
capacity of interpreter to the salts
faction of all parties.
All of Friday was taken up with
the evidence in the case and showed
that the testimony of the state was
entirely circumstatial. A misty
night, very dark; the next day a faint
trail on the ground, leading along
the ground and some of it over the
grass; a vindictively curious Russian
woman and her daughter getting up
early in the morning; finding a

defendant a few miles away; the
mnttering, mumbling threats and ac-
cusations, Russian consonants flying
thick and fast; the. denial of the
theft; and the bringing of the case
into court of justice.
The defendant took the stand on
his own behalf and he and his wit
nesses strove to show that the defen-
dant was at home when the crime is
alleged to have been committed. The
commission of the crime was denied
in emphatic terms and various cir
cumstances tending to show a COM
p1ete alibi were deduced.
During the trial thunder storm
came up and the remarks of counsel
were punctuated by peals of thunder
echoing and re-echoing along the
Missouri valley. The jury went out
at 1880 Saturday morning and
brought in a verdict of not guilty
after celebrating for an hour.

Hendrickson Acquitted.

With the aid of an interpreter
brought all the way from Wilton,
it was possible to go on with the
case against Ole Hendrickson, who
was charged with burglary. Two
witnesses for the state were women
and spoke nothing but the Russian
language, and nobody could be found

Matter Of an Election Puts the candi.
date to Much Trouble.
Election to the exclusive clubs in
Paris is very serious business. The
proposer and seconder must not only
know all about their candidates but be
able to bear witness to their antece-
dents and even to their forefathers.
They must write to all their friends
and ask them to support their candi-
dates. When the election takes place
they must not only be in the room but
approach each member individually as
he comes up to the ballot box and ask
him for his support.
When the member has been elected
he arrives the first day as kind Of
stranger and with his hat in hand. He
is then formally introduced by one Of
his proposers to each member sep.
arately who happens to be in the room
at the time. On the second occasion
he has ceased to he stranger and
may leave his hat in the hall. but he
is still expected to go around the room
with one Of his proposcrs and ne

TIPS BRING LOWER WAGES.
Walters Who Like Gratuitles Will
Have to Pay the Price.

Walters Who Like Gratuities Will
Have to Pay the Price.
The inevitable result of the tipping
practice must be the lowering of the
general wage scale. Wages are a
right. A tip is charity. Tips destroy
not only self-respect but wages-the
point can scarcely be overemphasized.
In one of the smallest hotels OH Fifth
avenue, says Everybody's Magazine.
where tip is always expected, the
walters are paid $25 month. On the
other hand, in one of the best known
beaneries on Park Row, where tips
are nnthought of, the walters receive
$50 month. 1t may be put down as
an axiom that salaries decrease direct
ly as the size of the tip.
The Pullman porters have had cause
to realize this. In the early days of
sleeping cars it was no uncommon
thing for porter to make 500 on a
trip from New York to Chicago and
back. And the company realizing this.
reduced the wages until a porter re.
ceived but $1.23 for trip from New
York to Chicago. But custom is liable
to change in the matter of tips. The
public grew tired of paying so heavily
for service and began gradually to re.
duce the size of its tips. One porter
told me that from 60 cents for the run
from Chicago to New York in 1890
the average tip had dropped to Is
cents. Yet the wages remain low, so
low that at a political convention held
in Saratoga a few years ago sixty
Pullman porters assembled In ex-Chief
of Police Devery's private car Elzevir
and formed themselves into an associ-
alton to fight the tipping system and
to demand fair working wages instead.
There ought to be moral for other
wage earners In this.
