The late meeting ot the board of educa tional lands und funds resulted in the ap proval of the npuruiscmcnt of the school lands in Colfux , Antelope , Hnrlan , Hall , Jefferson , AduuiB , Custer , Uawsou and fillmore - moro counties. Tlio average rui.so upon the old appraisement is about UOU pur cent , and the temporary school fund is correspond ' < ingly bcnelittud. For some reason tbo board refused to approve the new appraisement of the Bchool lunds in Furnas and Frankliu counties. It is understood that u majority of the board nro inclined to believe that their value is not yet sufllcientiy high , and the county commissioners or supervisors of the respective counties will be asked to recoil Bidor their report.

Mr. Thomas Ucnton , the boyisli auditor of public accounts , says ho is not under any ob ligations to the railroads , ana tlmt ho intends to labor for his constituency as in his Judg ment seems bunt. A. prominent clti/.cn of this city remarked this morning that II his judgment prompted him to maintain sucli men as Agcr and Waring , on the state board of transportation , that the general public would have very little respect for It after the 1st of April. "My ofllcial actions , " said Secretary Laws yesterday , when the state board of transpor tation contemplated going into secret session , "nro open to public criticism aud , bo far as I am concerned , reporters are welcome to remain in the room and make their rccofds of what wo do. " "That is manly , " naughtily remarked a bystander , "but the secretary has got so used to public criticism that ho keeps his uervo and cheek on tlio surface alt of the time , lie is Brim , but I know that ho winces once In a while when truths are forcibly told. " Treasurer Hill evidently intends to servo the people of the state at every hazard. "I woull like to see the old bitterness on the board of transportation buried , " ho re marked to Tin : line man lait night. There IB no need of it. Some of the members of tlio board fail to understand each other , and are too npt to treasure personal Idlocyncra- ctos and hold them reaponslblo for real ob jects and purposes , when they are not , and ought to bo put out of mind. It would have been the fair thing to liuvo at least respected the feelings of the attorney general on ono of the questions under consideration oration yesterday. Kight Is right , and it won't do for majorities to bo too exacting. It ought to bo rememberer ! that n single man once upon it time pulled down a toniplo and destroyed a tuition of people. The attorney general is hacked by a power that ought to bo held nti sovereign , and continued slaps at him will bo rebuked if they are persisted in , nt no distant daj.

It appears that tiiero nro em ployed in the quarries which have recently been reopened there , about one hundred and fifty men divided into three nationalities , viz. : Irish , Swedes and Germans. The foreman of the quarry , William FitzmorrlB , is ns his name Implies , n son of the Kmcrald Isle. Sotno bad feeling has existed between the different gangs for the lust few weeks on account of favoritism shown to the Irish. Thin reached nlclimnx Wednesday when Fit- morris openly declared ho would dis charge e'ery foreigner and replace them by men of his own nation- ullty. The Swedes and Germans who heard tlio threat formed tin offensive nlll- anco , nml having anno.

Two little newsboys witli tears streaming down their checks and trembling with feai walked from a Douglas street saloon Thurs day night , mid OnicerCullen put two counter felt silver half dollars , dated ISM and 18TO , li his pocket , and went to tlio central station , and handed them over to Captain Cormack. The little fellows had ovchanged them in tlio sales of their papers , and Innocently went into tlio saloon to have them changed into different coins , when their spuriousncss was detected. After hearing the boys' statcnienl Cutlen satisfied himself that they hud bcoi imposed upon , and gave tjietu their freedom. Shortly after the newsboy escapade Saloon keeper Hornbcrger nnd Doty & D.irst , o ! Fa main street , made information that they bad been imposed upon by the distribetoraof the "queer.

Tlio dollars boar the same dates as the halves , and are a very clover imitation of the genuine. . Pears' is the purestand best soap ever made. Pleaded Insanity. James Raney , n member of the Salvation army , was arraigned yesterday morning on the charge of stealing a number of knives , ribbons , etc. , from thodamngod stock of the Now York store lately purchased by the Fair store company.

Some of thorn ho two to his best girl , Miss Nellie Lewis , also n member of the Salvation army. Hanoy pleaded that he put tlio articles in his pocket to keep them from being stolen by boys who were hanging ubout. His attorney presented tlio plea of insanity and the testimony of the young man's father showed that Hanoy had once been treated for insanity.

RESERVATION LEASES , I low Aliens Pasture Thousands or Cattle. W. S. Decker , county attorney ol llomphill county , Texas , was in Kansas City the other day , and in relation to the manner In which foreigners control ranches in the territory , spoke to ti Times reporter ( is follows : " 1 noticed a communication from Camp Supply charging1 Amos Chapman with 'rent ' ing' the western purl of the Cheyenne and Arapahoe reservation to catllunion. This is iruc , and to begin at the begin ning , lot tno Mate that there are two largo cattle companies who hold their cattle on that reservation , nml as Chap man and other pert-ons inaku periodical visits to that section and Interview the managers of these companies , it is not ut all strange that there arc suspicious of irregular dealing , "Tho Texas Land and Cattle com pany , an association of Scotchmen , who reside In Dundee , and incorporated under the laws of ( jrout Britain , con trol the range on the Clioyenno anil Arapalioo reservation south of the Canadian river , and have camps and men who ride lines to keep their cat tle on UiiH range forty miles inside the i eservation. They have a range on the Washita river and on Sergeant Major creek. Thu company have their homo ranch two miles from tlio territory line in llomphill county , and hold all their cattle borne 10,000 head-on the Choycnno and Arapahoe reservation on the Canadian and Wtuihitii rivers. They also have a largo ranch in southern Texas , and drive from that ranch to the territory , where the grass is much bol ter to winter. "Tho ranch north of the Canadian river is claimed by the Dominion Cattle company , which is composed nf men who live in Canada , and is incorporated un der the laws of Unit country. They ' lease a few acres of the Chorok'uo strip , have their ranch house about a mile in- bide the line , and graze their cattle some 11,000 heart inside of the Ciioy- enne and Arapalioo reservations. "It is commonly slatoii there that the malingers ( if these comnanieb paid Chap man a good round sum two winters ago for 'not seeing' any cattle when lie was oil a scout over tlio reservation. Hut how they manage to pull the wool over the oyes'of the ollicors at Fort Elliot , who have orders to scout up and down the territory Hue once a month , is not known. Of course nobody would ucctiso them of being blinded bv the glitter ol gold. "ITero is something else for you to ponder over. You will recollect that in 18S5 Hon. A. S. Hewitt , Ed Fenlon , Senator Plumb , Calvin Hood , Hunter & Evans , Tom Bugbeo and a number of Kansas men maue a lease , ratified by nine-tenths of the Cheyenne nnd Ariip- ulioo Indians. On the strength of that they wire fenced their tract , put up good ranch houses and wont to an ex panse of three-quarters of a million dollars lars , and then had to get out at a dead ' loss within forty days. How did it happen - pen ? Why , this way : Chapman had been leasing the country just as he is doing now , and this lease interfered with his source of revenue. Of coin-so lie setup a howl that the Chcyonnps were opposed to the lease and would take the warpath unless the lease was annulled. President Cleve land ordered General Sheridan down to investigate. The general went tollono , tent for Chapman and Chapman came down with his 'family' and told the story that suited them best. The gen eral , without waiting to hear the other fiido from the agent , Colonel D. 13. Dyer , now of this city , and without in quiry among the Indians , telegraphed Cleveland that the Indians were not in favor of the lease , and advised him to order the cattlemen oil and give them forty days in which to evacuate the tract or there would bo trouble. ' "A number of gentlemen prominent in politics and business , headed by Abrum S. Hewitt , visited Washington and called on the president , stating to him that if ho issued this order it would bankrupt a largo number of men who had. all their mouoy invested in cattle on the reservation , and that ho ( Ho-.vitt ) had $100,000 in stock of ono of the companies. Mr. Cleveland gave thorn no satisfaction , but said the ofdor must go fortli and that they must remove - move their cattle in forty days. The committee begged for an extension of time for six months , but without avail. "And now that Americans have been driven out , British companies are al lowed to do just about what they please , without let or hindrance. It fatigues me. me."By the way"continued Mr. Decker , "John Sheridan is post trader's clerk at Supply , and lie and Mike are inoro or ' less intimately connected with Chapman - man in his .dealings. Of course that can not bo said to account for General Sheridan's haste in the matter. ' 'As an illustration of Chapman'H character I will simply add that ho captured bomo sportsmen from King- man , Kan. , the other day for hunting in the territory , and it cost them $00 apiece.

Now York Post : An electrician connected with the Julion Electric company said that in his judgment thcro was no doubt that the Julien system would bo adopted by the Fourth avenue company of New York city. Tbo great advantage of the system , he said , was that it could bo introduced gradually on any line at the same time that the old stock of horses and cars were being used up. In systems where the power was supplied from a wire run over the cars or laid in a track beneath them , the cost of the original plant was so great as to doter an established company from adopting tiio sy&toin. In the system being tried on the Fourth nvonuo line the cost was just in proportion tion to the number of cars purchased lo replace the old horse cars as the lut- tor wore worn out. The machinery of Llio electric motor cars made tin addi tional o.xpoiiso nt present of about 31,000. One hundred and forty-four Julien : ells nro now stored in each car on leaving the Eighty-sixth street station , julllciont newer to accomplish at least three round trips ; power enough in jthor words , to propel the rar for forty nilop on n level.

The oloctrlo car Is said to bo much iafor for the general street traffic than ho horse car , as by n simple appliance , ho power can bo immediately reversed ind the speed of the car checked more iromptly than is possible with a horse : ar.

Lew is ton Journal ' ' : 'Years ngo there lived in Pnrkman a doctor who was the ownorot u small dog that sometimes accompanied him when visiting his pa tients. Oao day the doctor drove do AMI to the village ot Sangervillc , about Ihreo miles distant from his homo. Ho took the little dojr along with him. When ho reached the homo of his pa tient , sad to relate , u big dog , nearly twice as largo as the doctor's dog , pitched in without u moment's warning and gave the little pot visitor an un merciful drubbing. But the litllo dog had plenty of courage , nnd evidently made up his mind J.hiit there was a dog in Parlnnan that could punish his assail ant about as effectually as the latter had done him , much to his delight. When the doctor had completed the call and started for homo ho overlook his dog , already on the way. He trotted along briskly by the wagon side over the'thrce miles between hangi-rvlllo and the doctor's homo in Pnrknmii , but when the doctor's team turned in and drove inlo the stable the dog kept right on , turning not to the right nor yet to the left. The doctor wondered at ilrst at so strnngo n proceeding , but be thought himself that awav about three miles on the track on which tlio dog was on lived a relative of his who was the owner of a big bulldog , and , at it was not an uncommon occurrence for the two dogs to interchange visits , ho supposed the intelligent little dog was on his way thither , and so gave the matter no further thought. It was not more than an hour from that time be fore the doctor and his family noticed his dog and that ot his relative three miles tiwny running down the Sanger- villo road together. Neither dog stopped lo look uphen passing the house , but appeared , on the contrary , in a deep study , and two more solemn dogs never ran together. HiH dog came homo about two hours later and occupied his accuhtomod place for the niglil. The doctor heard nothing that night nor the next day. It was but a few days , how ever , oofore ho went down to Snngor- villo lo visit liis patient , and it was then Unit the mystery was solved. Tlio folks told him all about it. In about two hours after the doctor had left the house , his dog ; accompanied by the big bulldog , made its appearance , and us the dog which had drubbed so unmerci fully his visitor came down to moot them the bulldog made a uush at him and gave him one of the most complete punishments ever given a dog.

Some faint "dead away ; " others reserve their fainting nnd Bcronm , open mouthed , until assist ance arrives , and then sink languidly Into the arms ot thair rescuer ; but scarce indeed are these who endeavor Lo effect the capture thom&olvos. To Mrs. Minnie Brophy. the wife of ix blacksmith , belongs the honor of at tempting the last pumod methodwhich , combined with truly feminine bhrioks for help , provontqd the escape and ef fected the detention of two men who went n burgling on Sunday ovonlnir in the Brophy's apartments on the second floor of the tenement house No. 551 Ninth nvonuo. Mrs. Brophy , who is n pronounced brunette , pretty and petite , was putting her two little children to hod about 7 o'clock on SumUy , when she heard a neighbor scronm , "llicro's a man In Iho pnss.igol" She ran Into the adjoining room , which is used as n parlor , and there , sure enough , was the burly llguro of a broad shauldered rutllan , who was just In the act of climbing through a window which opened upon the hall way. Mrs. Brophy aid not hesitate a moment , but rushed to llio window , and grabbing the burglar by his Itoots upset his balance and brought him lo Iho lloor. The burglar scrambled lo his feel des pite the efforts of Mr.s. Brophy , who was nearly upot hoisolf in the a'ltompl to keep him down. Then ho cJulchod hlfl coat and hung on with the tenacity of u bulldog , serunmiiig lustily all the whilo.

Bui he could not do it , although ho drugged her all over the place , upsetting chairs , table , sow ing machine and Mrs. Brophy's pet cat. However , ho had an accomplice lurking in the hall , and realizing thai Iho racket would soon bring assistance to the plucky little woman , vhis fellow dashed into the room , caught hold of her hands , wrenched them away from his "pal's" ololhing. and giving her n push , which sent her stnirgoring into a corner , hurried otT after his companion , who had vanished llio moment Mrs. Brophy'h hold was released. The precious pair did not go very far. Thu neighbors had been aroused by Mrs. Brophy's screams and wore flocking into tie hallway just as Iho first "crook'1 came rushing out. lie ran right into the urms of a stout lady , and the shock of the collision knocked Uiein both over.

This gave his "pal" lime to catch up to him , nnd the two ikibhod into the Htrcol only lo collide once more with another weighty female. She delayed their progress sulllcicntly for some men to catch hold of thorn , and a moment later Mrs. Bro phy came running out of the house.

This piquantc hislorielto was eagerly read in Franco , all over , it seems , because - cause the Courier publishes the follow ing loiter which was received in the white house ; "A Monseur le President Cleveland : I have scon with a heart full of sorrow that tlio white house , the residence of your excellency and your esteemed Intly , is infested with these abominable 'rnngeurs' commonly called rats. I lake the liberty of bending you a package - ago which will in a short time deliber ate you of the terrible plague. I have tested it.
