This suit \\as bc un by K. L. Williams
against J. ( ' . Dcllaven , the well known
ilrujrgiMt , who i.s conslduroil among the
be t of Council Hlulls busino s men. The
suit was for $1-100 , itboiiiK elaitned that
ho had not properly reported for fou Kteen
months past. Under the law a variety of
details are required in iho report , the ac
count of each sale to be given , with name .
of purchaser , amount , price , purpose for
which purchase is made , amount
of liquors on hand at thu
bc innin of Iho month , and
amount purchased during the month , in
fact , a bewildering number of facts. It
h claimed that the omission of any of the
facts required in the report constitutes u
cause for recovering the penalty. ln de
fense of [ ho Stilt brongnt admiral mr. D ?
Haven , evidence was introduced showing
that he had tiled monthly reports , com-
pljing in the main with the requirements
of the law. These reports coincided with
his .sales book. .Some of I he reports
found In the auditor's otlicc did not show
when they were tiled , and the auditor
could nnt tell the date , as thov wore in his
ofiieO "wlion no IOOK * fw-isSssum . Tfifo
auditor and his assistant ssvore that no
record was kept of these repoi K they
being liled away simply in pigeon holes.
In fact , it seems that if the tact that a re
port for any month in the auditor's ollico
renders the dealer liable to a penalty of
$100 tliore is little piotection giy m the
dealer. Thu reports arc not registered ,
and if lost or stolen the informant
could then got i O for disclosing
the fact that the report was not on liel.
If this should prove to be tire law , there
would be a great temptation for pri'Mms
to Meal the reports , which can be easily
done , as they have to be kept pcn
for public inspection. The auditor is not
to be blamed for not protecting the deal-
eis by registering these icports , or other
wise recording I lie fact that such reports
are liled _ , as the law does not provide tor
anything of the sort. It gives no in
structions or requirements , so that if the
dealer leaves the reports with the
auditor ho can do as ho pleases with
them.
A .sort of syndicate was formed in DCS
Moincs sonic time ago for commencing
such suits and recovering such penalties.
Notices wcro served on dealers in this
county , the amount of the penalties
claimed being $ -li,000. ! One-half of this
amount , if recovered , would go to the
syndicate , and if every county could be
successfully worked there would be
millions in it.
This case was not one of this class. It
seems to have been brought rather as a
test case than for the purpose of pinch
ing Mr. Dellaveu. It was decided in
favor of Mr. Uollaven , and. this makes a
bar to nis being bothoicd any more by
anybody in regard to his reports. About
a week after ho was served wjtli a notice
of the beginning of these huits he was
served with a notice that the Ucs Monies
syndicate , represented by Mr. Gosling.
was to commence suit. The trial and
outcome of this suit disposes ot the oth
ers , und Mr. Dellaven can rest easy.

the old ownership.

ber , said ho was formerly the unfortu
nate but now one of the fortunate
owners of this land ; that ho ob

man economizing "by sleeping in a fide
door Pullman , and when they pulled him
out and took him up to the station he
was wild with indignation. Ho gave his
name as Frederick llandt , and on being
searched ho was found to have about fif
teen dollars in his pocket. Ha objected
to the police putting his money in the
safe wtuie ho slept iu the cooler , am
viewed them with distrust , in spite ol
their protestations that they wanted to
keep it where the tramps inside with
whom he wus to lodge could not steal {
from him. He was able lo take care of
hini clf and his money
He tried it yesterday. Ho was released
from the city hotel , und went forth with
hi ? money in his pocket. During the nf-
lernoon he fell in with a farmer , and as
the German wanted a iob and the farmer
wanted a hired man , tiic two mncn ( contract -

farmer had some shopping to do , and

farmer wanted to pay for some groceries
and had not quito money enough until he
went up lo the bcnk and cashed a cheek.
Would his now emplo.vo lend him a little
until he could get the money out of the
bank" Of course , and the now employe
handed him $10. Of course the farmer
was not seen by him again , and the poor
victim again applied to police headquar
ters for help. eonlidcnee man made
good his r-capo with the money , leaving
the poor victim the experience.

very reticent. When asked where ho

Trying to Save the Girl.
Emma Uojc , a girl of sixteen , was
jrought before Judgu Avlcswortliyoiter-
lay on application of her father Joseph
Joje , to have her sent to the reform
school. The girl protested that she was
not a bad girl. She had been hack rid-
ng with a girl who look her lo her rooms
on Pierce street and tea'-cd her to stay
over night. I hero were some men there
and she then learned that the girl was
not a lit associate for her. She denied ,
iowevcr , that she had been going with
such girls , or that she was guilty ol more
; han indiscretions. She wanted , to .see
icr mother , who was out of the city , be-
tore any decision was made in her case.
The judge gave the girl a sharp lecture ,
and continued her case two weeks with
[ lie understanding that if she behaved
herself there would be nothing more
done about it , but that if she was caught
riding about in hacks at night or run
ning the streets she would be sent to Ihc
reform school on short nolico.

AVnr on the Mountain Ijloii.
Mountain lions , owing to their ferocity
and great numbers , must bo considered
the most dangerous and most destructive
wild animal we have , writes a Eort
Kcogh ( Montana ) correspondent of the
L'liiladclphia Times. So bold have they
become of late that cattlemen and the
territorial authorities too have been com
pelled to give attention to the ravages
committed by these beasts among ihe
Hooks and hculs. A lively war of c\lcr-
minatiou has been going on against them
for some time. The territory oilers a
premium of $8 on every scalp brought in
to be punched , ami some of the counties
add to the inducements by offering on
their own accounts a nice little sum in
addition lo the icriitorial bounty. The
cowboys , with lots ot spare time on Iheir
hands during Ihe winter months , gain a
handsome largess for themselves ( not to
speak ot the fun and sport the.y have ) bv
hunting and killing mountain lions from
November to March. The cow-puncher ,
with an eye to business , iirst draws on
the territorial treasurer for $8 ; ho then
hands n , bill to the county for something
more , and finally sells the hide to a fur
rier for what it is worth. There wore 14 1
mountain lions killed and paid for in
Montana in 1881 ; UH in 188:5 : , for which
.f 1,288 , came out of tlio territorial treas
ury , and this year the figures promise to
run up to 200 or thereabout. Mountain
lions in this section attain a prodigious
si/.o. Specimens are often killed meas
uring nine feet from tip to tip and weigh
ing not far from 250 to 800 pounds. Many
more measuring from ten lo eleven feet
aio frequently bagged , and occasionally
a monster reaching twelve feet in the
clear and perhaps longer is brought down
by some lucky and daring hunter. The
hula of this animal makes an excellent
rug. Scarcely a ranch in the whole Kooky
mountain region is without a mountain
lion skin on the Hour. One cattle ranch
on Powder river has everv room in the
hou.-o carpeted with handsome skins of
tliis animal. The hide is a bright brown
on the back and rump , but fades away
into a soft white brown toward tlio sides ,
and becomes almost a piiro white under
Iho bully , The tail is tipped with whito.
and the head , eyes , cars , nose and features
are an e.\act reproduction of the domestic ;
cat on a larger scale. The feet and claws
are aslo like those of "Tom and Maria. "
