It Is reported upon tlio ex cellent authority of onu of Hall's ' intimate friends who Is still in tlio city , that the llttlo package over which them was such a hot dispute wns of a very valuable natuio. The papers were alleged to have been worth between $ . ) o,00d and $10,000 and comprised railway nnd mining stocks quoted in the mar kets , deeds to valuable traits of lands nnd notes anil mortgages. The package repre sented some of Hall's earnings and Invest ments during the past ycai.

The old man is getting too far along toork. . and that wns the icason ho wns so anxious to invest in the pat ent feed cooker. Hall says ho has learned since taking the paper that the old man was anxious to send his children to the Tabor college , and hoped to inuko enough out of his patent right deal to pay their way. Lest It would prevent him giving the children the education desired if ho was compelled to pay tlio other draft , Hall sajs that ho has conclude , ! to bo easy on bim and let him hn\e it buck if the old mun will ask for it in u icnl nice , pleasant manner. "By the way , Hall expects to be up hero before long , nnd no doubt some of his old filends will bo glad to meet him. Ho is a jolly good fellow and knows how to entertain. T11A.NSFORMA.TION SGCNK.

Judge Deemer occupied 0110 room , having corno beie for a two or three dujs' stay to dispose of some cases which ho has had in hand. Yesterday lie was listening to arguments for a now til.il in the case of Dcspaln vs. Pace. Judge Carson sat as usual lit the largo court room nnd was busy with tlio case of Dutchervs. Gallagher , which has been taking so\cral days already. For a controversy over such dry details as nro concerned in this case , Uio trial seems to bo quite inter esting to these who have nothing to do but hang around the court room. The sharp liring of the attorneys and the wrangles over the introduction of testimonyVpives re lief to what would otherwise bo vew tedious to n listener. Tbo criminal docket will bo taken up next Monday , The llrst trial will bo that of Mycrb , charged with stealing a horse and buggy from Clatterbuck. The case of Boat t/ , charged with killing young Donnhoe , will not bo tried until the January term. The old cnso of Jonathan Jones , charged with inuidor , which has had a varied career in court for the past fourteen years , will probably not bo tried this term , nu applica tion having been tiled for a continuance , on the ground that Colonel Scott , wl o has been the do fond unt's attorney In nil ' the preceding tilnls , has been obllijed to go'south with his wife , whoso health is so poor as to mauo this trip necessary.
