The charge against Charles Bare- bauson , that ho liad disobeyed the ordi nance requiring the closing of saloons on Sunday , was heard before Judge Ayles- worth vcsterday. The evidence showed that the place was being scrubbed out , but that tlio men doing this work abso lutely refused to sell oven a cigar , and when llio work ot cleaning up the saloon was over , the doors were locked again. The charge was therefore dismissed. City Engineer Tostevin is preparing plans for the enlargement 01 tlio city building by which an addition of twenty- five feel is to bo added , running back the entire length of the building.

A sliorttlmo ago there appeared several coinintinicatlons concerning tlio claimed record of 20 : for Zulu , owned by Colonel Popplotou. The manner in which this record was obtained caused two chal lenges to issue , with big money back of them , that Zulu could not make any where near such u record. These chal lenges have called forth no response jot , and the horsemen interested urn wonder ing ut the silence. The last numbr of the Chicago Horseman contains a colored cartoon setting out tlio manner in which judges lit some of thn tracks make tin records to accommodate their friends. His said to have been suggested by tlio alleged manner in which Zulu was given n record here. The take-oil' is a merry one anyway , and there is much truth pic tured , of course , in the exaggerated form common lo cartoons. A great deal of sport is boinv made about the allair , and the only way of escape seems to DO the accept ing of some of these challenges , and either making the challengers back the track or else prove by an actual show ing of speed that Zulu is as fast as is claimed. Colonel Daily's line colt , sired by Archi bald , standard , No. a , ! ) ! , " ) , is quite ill. Messrs. J. T.

Ho is a bright bay , 10 hands high , antl weighs 1,123 Ibs. , and is as line a built horse as wo have over fccen. His sire was imported Intruder , whose pedigree , taken from the English stud book , proves him to bo ono of the best blooded horses in England , and winners of more races than any other breed. International , on his sire's side , carries the blood of such horses as Curler , Orlando , Rataplan , Don John , Gladiator , ami Touchstone. His dam was Kitty O'Neal , who was a daugh ter of HonnioScothuid and Emily Payton.

Now that the old police force have dolled their stars the boys sit around and tell of the varied experiences , not only 'fcssing , but peaching on their follows. "Did you hear , about Jack catching a follow at the Pacilic house for currying concealed weapons ? I guess you news paper fellows never did get onto that. 1 might as well toll you now. There was a traveling fellow there who had an elegant - gant meerschaum pipe , in a case , and ho had it in his pocket. Some of tlio boys thought they would bother Jack a little , and so they pointed out this fellow to him and put him on , tolling him he was a con man , ono of the worst sort , and a shooter. They told Jack that ho ought to run him in , but that he must lookout and not give the fellow a chance to pull his gun. Ho had a big ono in bis overcoat pocket , right hitiuly. Jack managed to pass along near the follow two or three times , brushing sort of against his coat pookot , and satisfied himself that the fellow had n revolver sura. Ho thought that ho could run him in for carrying concealed weapons , if he couldn't get anything else against him. Jack was dentil on con men , you know. Well , the traveling man was Just stepping out of the hotel ollice. as innocent as a lamb , when Jack thinking it was his last show for nipphur him , stopped up to him and asked him ono or two questions , as to what his n at no was , whcrcQho came from , where ho was going , etc. The traveling man , not knowing it was an ollicor , thought ho was mighty impudent , and ho cut him oil'short. . This made Jack think btill morothat ho was crooked , and as the fellow happened to put his hand in the pookot , Jack made up Ids mind it was then or novor. Jaok , you know , is plucky , and ho did not propose to give Iho follow any bhow to shoot , so ho grabbed him , saying , "I'll show yccs whither yccs [ can carry concealed weapons in the state of Iowa or not , " and before the fellow know what was go ing on , Jack iiad the coine-a-alongs onto him , and had dived into the fellows pookot and dragged out Iho supposed rn- volvor. As Jack's eyes rested on the ciiho covering a meerschaum pipe , ho willed , and the roar which came from the crowd peeking from around the corner drowned tlio travelling man's cusses , as Jack lot go and began apolo gising , The gaug had worked Jack for all ho was worth , and tor weeks it wasn't safe for any fellow to whisper in his ear. 'Jack , there's a con man. Look out for him. Ho shools with a pipo.

Jacqucrmm & Co's , No. 27 Main &t. Tlio AVcl hiuastor'8 Prospects. The vexed question of the city scales will soon bo before the council for some acllon. The city owns a set of scales , which are located at the city building , wliilo the space between the city building ami the jail is intended for the market place. ThiB has been practically uban- doucd for two veurs past , mid the busi ness has been mainly done by tlio scales at the intersection of Main and Pearl streets. Those scales are said to bo lo cated on city property , but are owned and controlled by private parties , The street is used us the standing place for thu hay wagons ; etc , Tlio merchants iu that vicinity have been glad to have the pcalos and tiie market place there , as they think it helps trade in that locality. The official weighmastcr is. however de prived of the revenues of the office , and as the city i entitled to 2D per cent of all ills receipts , the city treasury does not receive its portion of the bu inc.s. \ \ ith the new wcighmaster coining into ollice , an attempt will be made to have him do Iho weighing and take the receipts. The attempt to force the business from its present center on Main street to the city building will meet witli much opposition. It is understood that the private scales will not bo abandoned without a fight. Still , it seems that an officer elect should be protected by the city in nil his rights , and llio nalural revenue of the ollico should bo his. Otherwise it is a farce to elect a weighmaster. Wants Pity For tlio Ilnttor. Justice Sehur/8 court was recently oc cupied for several days in tlio trial of the case of the Andersons , charged with hav ing a aultcd and battered William Trav- crs. The affair was a neighborhood row , occuri ing a few miles out of the city. Onu of the Andersons was fined $10 and costs. This has not satisfied Travcrs , and ho has now commenced a suit in the dis trict court , claiming 52,500 damages for injuries dona his body by the Andersons , for menial anguish , etc. Itnolccd For April. The following arc the companies booked for the coming month at tlio opera house.

Sunny South : Senator Bright , of In diana , used to loll a good story about n challenge ho received from Joseph G. Marshall , a political rival. The parties went to Louisville to tight , but the diffi culty was there sotllcd by Gen. William O. Butler. Pending the settlement of the affair , the police put in an appear ance for the purpose of arresting tlio combatants. "I'm looking for Mr. Marshall , sure , " said the Irish captain ns ho entered Mr Marshall's room at the hotel , "and I be lieve tlio mon is before mo. " Mr. Marshall divined at once flic pur- posp of this visit , and assuming an air of indifference , coolly inquired : "What ono of the Marshalls do you desire to seoV There arc two of us hero. " ' The OHO who is to lighl Hie jewel , sure , " replied llio policeman. "AhI I undersland. You should see my brother. Ho is in tlio room at the other end of the hall. " "But is ho the Misler Marshall that's a lawyer ? " inquired the skeptical cap tain. tain."llo "llo will probably toll you that lie is a minister. But don't lot him fool you. Lawyers , you know , can quote toxls as well as pruiiCll1'3- " . , . , , . , The policeman politely tnaimnu .1. for Ids assistance , bowed him&olf out of the room , and passed on to the room of llov. Samuel Marshall , an elder brother and a prominent divine of Ken tucky. In vain did Iho minister expos tulate. "Your texts don't apply , " said the plucky Irishman. "You're mo mon , sure now ! You're no more of a preacher than I am myself , " and the fellow was hurry ing him down the stairway when they met a mutual friend , who explained to the policeman that ho was badly "sold. " Meanwhile Joseph Marshall had moved lo parts unknown , and thus avoided llio humilialiou of going to the mayor's court. A Child Without a Country. Washington letter : Everybody is famil iar with Edward Evorct Halo's story , "A Man Without a Country. " A very vol uminous correspondence between United States and Consul Shackclford at Nantes and the stale department , recently made public , contains the details of a story , less interesting , perhaps , but none the less true , of a child without a country. The facts briefly stated arc these : Some years ago Charles Busch , a natur alized German-American , accompanied by his pretty , Italian wife , sailed for Franco to accept an engagement as a tenor singer in one of the opera compa nies in Paris. En route , a child , who was named Charles Herman Busch. was born to them. The mother died shortly after reaching Franco , and Iho father soon fol lowed her. The child , having boon born on Iho high seas , was literally without a country. The French authorities refused to administer upon the father's estate or provide fa guardian for the infant , be cause neither of tlio parents was u citizen of llio republic. Consul Shackolford could do nothing without permission of the government After two years' delay this permission was finally granted. The American colony in Paris became inter ested in the child , who is said to bo re markably bright and preccious , and a fund has been subscribed sufficient to rear and educate him until his 10th year , when an effort will bo made to appoint him a cadet at the naval academy at An napolis. The little fortune of 27,000 francs , the proceeds of his father's cstalc , will bo invested for him and placed at his disposal when ho shall have finished his education. A Fly Man Cnuglit. Dnlroit Free Press : "Ono of the curious traits about those French-Canadians , " said a fly man yesterday , "is the fact that they never die of old ago. Some seven teen years ago n couple of us wore work ing a Great Western train , and wo beat a Frenchman out of $15 on the throe-card monte racket. Ho was a little , old. wilt ed up specimen , seaming to bo all of 70 years old , and Im didn't got tlio game through his head before we jumped the train at a small station. The other day I was coming to Detroit from the east ami when the train stopped at St. Thomas I got out to stretch my logs , I had scarce ly touched the platform when somebody grasped me and'a voice cried out : ' "Ho is da nniiuil Ho bait ma out of fccftccn dollairo ! ' "I looked around to find that same old Frenchman hanging to my sloovo. I couldn't sco that he had changed a parti cle in looks or grown older by a day. " 'I want mo foofteen dollairo1 ! ho shouted as lie danced around. 'Dis man ho llirow one two thrco cards and ho tauko ma foeftccn dojlairo and koopt' "I tried to brass it out , but it was no go und the result was that 1 had to fork over the money. Ho stood there as the train moved all , und slinking his fist at me lie shouted : " 'Ha ! I forgot ! Yon doant pay mo no 'nteres' on znt fcefteon dollairc for seven teen yaarcs ! I see you again mebbo sev enteen ynares more ! ' " A Very Successful Case. First Lawyer "Ah , Dobklns , how did you ooino out in that case you wore just beginning when I went east ?

Detroit Free Press ; A citizen rushed up-stairs on the Jefferson avenue side of Merril hall so fast yifstoVday that a man on the landing inquired : "Has anything happened ? " "I'm getting out of the way of a man who wanti to borrow money , " was the reply as ho passed down on the Wood ward avenue side. In about five minutes n second man c.imo rushing up and called to the man on the landing : " "Anybody gone iip.lr" "Yes. " "Have on light overcoat and plug hat ? " ' 1 "Yes.

Philadelphia News : "A man called about six months ago , " said the pawn broker , "and handing mo a watch worth at least $230. asked me to let him have 25 cents upon it. I looked at him in sur prise and then hastily ran over our list of stolen watches. It was not mentioned there. I told him that I would give him far more than 2. > cents upon thu watch. , Ho said he wanted no more , and noticing my look of surprise lie said to mo'To- : night 1 accompany some friends to the thealro.
