There was very llttlo Interest for outsldo
spectators in yesterday morning's business
in district court , but thora was aorao very in
teresting testimony introduced la the after
noon , that Induced tbo attorneys to cluster
ns near as convenient to the witness stand ,
and the spectators crowded as close to the
railing as It was possible to got , so that not a
word should bo losL Itvns not a spicy dl-
vorco suit , or of the kind which usually
draws a crowd to hear a rehearsal of dis
gusting nnd nauseating details , but \vas sim
ply onu of the saloon cases , In which John
A. Lnndstrotn In plaintiff , and George F.
Doulton attorney. The case is entitled
Landstroui vs Chris Hudlo ot at , the other
defendant bolng Thomas Mctcalf , the owner
of the building , No. 013 Uroadway , against
which an Injunction was sought. Jacob
Sims appeared for Motctilf , and Colonul D.
H. Uailoy for Kudto. It was evident from
the start that tnoro was to bo con-
si'Iorablo horse play , and that 13oul-
ton would bo the victim of It.
Ho movwl for n judgment by default , ns no
record npponrod of any answer having buen
filed by the defendant. Then the fun
jogun. The delcndant's attorneys demurred ,
objected , executed , filed motions , vorillod
answers , etc. , etc. , until Uoultonvas nearly
xvild. The attorneys outsldo the case till
jecixmo Intensely interested , and the fact
soon became patent that Houlton was fightIng -
Ing the whole bar. If ttiero wus anything
that the two nttornoys employed could not
think of It was promptly suggested by some
of the others.
The court could not help but sec what was
tjolng on , but it was all done so quietly tnat
tliero was no occasion for interference. For
fully two hours Boultan was mercilessly
"horsed.1 * to the Inlhilto amusomunt of
everybody but himself. Even the witnesses
took'a hand , nnd would testify to anything
but what ho wanted them to. Finally the
court got weary of the exhibition which
Uoulton was making of himself , and
told him that ho was wasting the
court's tlmo In making foolish ob
jections , and that It had required
longer to got through , the preliminary mat
ters than should huvo been required to try
the case. At length ho was called as a wit
ness by the defense , and then ensued such n
questioning as would take the stiffening out
of the knees of a marble statue. Colonel
D.iiloy took the ilrst hand , and after com
pelling Boulton to acknowledge n number of
things around which ho tried unsuccessfully
to squirm , the witness was turned over to
Mr. Sims.
As Is very well known , Boulton and Sims
are the attorneys representing the two classes
of prosecution agulnstthosaloons , tlio former
representing the diigruntlod ex-saloonlsts
nnd tno latter the tompcrnnca ulllanco. Con-
sldcrnblu personal fooling has been engon-
gored between the two gentlemen , oaeh main
taining that the other is in the business for
revenue only , and that ho is not sin
cere In his clTorts to close the saloons.
In tha answer filed by the defendants it is
also charged that Boulton , Ford , Gray and
Landstrom have entered into a conspiracy to
prosecute the saloon for the purpose of black
mail , or In other words , to got what they can
out of It.
There have been several lively tilts be
tween the gentlemen heretofore , but yester
day was tno first time that either of them
has had a chance to handle the matter with
out gloves. Boulton was on the witness
stand , and Sims shot questions at him with
the bark on.
There was quite a jungle as to who paid
the money with which Uoulton was conduct
ing the case. Boulton Insisted that hn paid
it himself.
"Who gave you the money with which to
pay the illine fees. , Mr. Boulton ! "
"I a well a-um , now if it please the
court I don't think that is a proper question ,
and I shall object to answering It. The
statute provides that communication between
counsel and clients are not to uo revealed in
this way. "
The objection was overruled.
"Well , but I don't think ills at all material ,
and- "
-
and"It doesn't make any ililTorenca what
counsel thinks. I have overruled the objec
tion. Answer the question. "
"Well-er-or , I don't know. "
"Isn't It a fact that Dave Qrav gave you
money with which to prosecute these cases ,
and this one in particular ! "
"I can't say that ho did. I don't remember
anything about It. "
"Havon'Cyou boon paid money to go ahead
with thcso cases , with the understanding
that all the parties who put up the money
should have n share of the attorney's fees ! "
"Now then , your honor , I am accused of
conspiracy , und I don't think It Is right to
put me on the stand to testify against my
self. "
"You can talto advantage of the statute ,
and can refuse to criminate yourself , " said
the court tersely , whllo several winks
traveled around the court room.
"Oh , no , I don't moan to do that , " replied
Boutton hurriedly , "but I think that the
com ought to dccido that it is an improper
question. "
"Tho court don't think so , " came the chill
ing answer , "
Again Boulton's accommodating memory
came to his relief , and ho could not remem
ber that any such agreement had taken
placo. Likewise as to Cray's going to Mr.
Everett and guaranteeing the rent of Boul
ton's ofllco. Boulton tried to get In his say
a few times , but SIuis shut him off.
"Didn't Cray toll you that ho had boon enjoined -
joined from selling liquors in the state by a
decree of this court ! "
"I don't know that ho did. But I know
what ho did sav. " with a triumphant look at
Sims. "Ho told mo that "
Never mind that , answer the question 1"
"Ho told mo about a certain building which
bus an Injunction against It , und you "
"Never mind that ; never mind that. If
your honor plouso , wo would lilco to have the
witness answer the question. "
" \\'oll , I guess I havn some rights hero ,
and will tell what I choose. "
"No you won't , you will answer my ques
tions , and toll nothing but what I ask you. "
So the battle progressed , ui'd ' Boulton
rcall/ud that no was helpless In the camp of
the Philistines. Ho saw that the jig was up ,
and slid out of It as quietly and qulcklv as ho
could when ho was finally released from the
witness stand. The case was submitted and
taken under advisement.

outlet. Returning to the hotel , they sat
down to a sumptuous dinner. The return to

The visitors expressed themselves ns very
favorably Impressed with the lake and its
prospects , nnd Messrs. Mlllurd nnd Barton
were highly pleased , it being their flrst visit
to the place. It la understood that an elec
tric line to the lake early next spring Is
much moro than a bare possibility.
It Is intimated that the Main

It In blntcd that there will be two tracks ,

The club recently organized to advance the

ment of Its purposes and intentions. They
make tno following declaration of prin
ciples :
Wo advocate tbo abolition of nil taxes
upon Industry and the products of industry ,
and the taking , by taxation upon land values
irrespective of improvements , of the annual
rental value of all these various forms of
natural opportunities embraced under the
general term , land.
Wo hold that to tax labor or its products is
to discourage industry.
Wo hold that to tux land values to their
full amount will render It imuossiblo for any
man to exact from others a price for the
privilege of uslug those bounties of nature in
which nil living mon have an equal right of
use ; that ft will compel every Individual con
trolling-natural opportunities to cither utilize
them by the employment of labor , or abandon
them to others ; that It will thus provide op
portunities of work for all men , nnd secure
to each the full reward of his labor ; and that
as a result involuntary poverty will DO abolished
ished , and the greed , iiuemporunca and vica
that spring from poverty and the dread of
poverty will bo swept away.

The San Frnneisco Report pays the
'
following glowing tribute to the 'bolter
half of the luimiin race :
Who saves up for a month for a per
sonal treat and then shares it with the
whole family V
Woman.
\Vhoturns deadly ill nt the sipht of
blood , yet stands recklessly in its rain
in time of war or accident1 !
Woman .
Who cats scraps for lunch that
noble ( V ) man may have tidbits for
dinner ?
Woman.
She is a heroine in danger , n coward
when looking : under the bed. And yet
there are "persons" who claim that
women do not understand the moaning
of the word courageous. It's n libel ,
for true courage shows in the little
things of life. Women are forced to
deal with the smaller side. They have
to marry men.
