The young man Hunt or Hushes, who was ar- rested upow the charge of robbing James Sulli- Yan, a guest at the Sherman House, was honor- ably diseburged by Justice Wallace yesterday, there being not n_ particle of evidence against him, and itis doubtful if Sullivan was robbed at all. He was unwell, and the . house-detective tuld him to keep the door of his room closed, but he did not do so.. When Sullivan reported that he bud been robbed, the de- lective went out and called in Policeman Curtin, who acted in a very strange manner, desiring to club tne detective. The account of the affair given in ‘THE TitrmusE was obtained froin the police, who colored tho circumstances to their own credit, possibly on account of the jealousy existing between the regular force and ‘outside olficers. Mr. Jughes has nothing to do with free lunches, and is a respectable man. ‘THE KNIGHTS OF PYTHLAS. There is quite a commotion ‘in the camp of the Knights of Pythius over the recent Sunday excursion of “Lamon Division No, 4 to Milwaukee and tho picnic in Seblitz’s Park. It appears that Hermann the commander was notified before he lett Chi- cugo with tho Knights that be was violuting the law of the Order, and on their arrival in Mil- waukee n protest was presented by CU. Curtls, G.K. R&S. of Wisconsin. ‘There were a num- ber of misinformed Milwaukee Knights at tha alepot when the train arrived. but, by order of ‘the Grand Chancvllor, they refrained from par- ticipation. L. Herminn marched to the purk Without. an escort, ana he and those with him enjoyed’ themselves on the New Jersey plan,—every onv paying for his own beer. ‘They had 4 * good time,” returning howe Monday. The Grand ollicers of Wisconsin are in arms on account of the invasion of their ju- risdiction by these “Sabbath-break and they will make a fortmal complaint to the Grand Lodge of this State against Hermann and bis command; and they will be joined in the prose- cution by the Grand ollicers of Mlinois, the law of this jurisdiction nlso probibiting any such Sunday parades, ete. THE TOLLESTON CLUB made an important acquisitton to ‘the marshes of the Little Catu- met, near Tolleston,:Ind., have long been favorit resort for those who enjoy duck and snipe shooting, and the club owns an cxtensivi farm there, on which stands tho Club-hou: furnished with ample conveniences for the social entertainment of the members and tor the keeping of their guns, ete. ‘The property is situnted in Lake County, and is worth $40,000. With a view to still further enhance its value asa hunting ground, the club bas purchased 2,000 neres oF marsh land at Tolleston, near the cross- ing of the Michigan Central and Fort Wayne Railroads, which is known to, be the choicest hunting ground in the State. This larse tract is now being inclosed by a fence some fittecn iniles inextent, and the club bas taken measures to have it thoroughly patroled in order to protect itagainst marauders. A uw was passed at tho Jast session of the Indiana Legislature making itu misdemeunor for any one not a member to go on the Jand, under a penalty of $5 to $50, and This law will now be strictly enforced by means of the police, who are permanently stationed in the grounds, The shooting Scuson opens on the Ast of September. FAREWELL 70 THEODORE THOMAS. Theodore Thomas «rave the last of his most enjoyable season of cummer-night_concerts last night at the Expusition Building. The audient as might have been expected on a furewell ow sion of this sort,—though it is to be hoped thut the farewell is on! son, and a brief onc at that, Arvest. aud most en- thusiustic of any which bave graccd the entire series of entertainments during the past few weexs. Not the least plexsant feature of the evening was that portion of the exercises not down on the printed‘ program. Between the first and second parts Prof. David Swing ap- peared on the platform with Mr. Thomas, and, addressing him and bis orchestra, said that the spoutancous olfering of flowers ‘appropriately expressed the thankfulness or the peopic of Chicayo to Bt, Thomas and his assistants for providing ascason of music that had surely ira- proved the populur taste, The Professor closed his remarks with a glowing reference to the re- fining and educating intluences of music. His ite speech was reccived with applause, indi- ing that the audience approved of the in- doi ent of Mr. Thomas xs a true educator of the people. A warm ovation was tendered Mr. ‘Thomas as he stepped to the stand, which had been decorated with rare flowers. After repeat- edly xcknowledging the compliment, Mr, Thomas indicated that the audience was Indebt- cd to his orchestra, rather than to him alone, for what pleasure and proiit they had received. As the concert proceeded the enthusiasm of the audience was ontrked, and tho. encores were numerous. |THE CITY-HALL. Tue charge is made that this city is at present infested with thieves and confidence-men, who have come here within the past few days. Tue [County Treasurer sent $41,000 over tothe city yesterday as receipts from tax collections. He still bolds probably $000,000 in his nands of receut collections. ‘Tit: Fire Committee of Louisville, Ky., havo forwarded resolutions of thanks to Mayor Hur- rison, Chief-of-Police McGarigie, and Fire-Mar- shal Swenie fur courtesies extended during their stay in this cisy. ‘Tne flag on the City-Hall was displayed at half-mast yesterday in respect to the memory of the late ex-Controller ‘Taylor. The City-Hall offices will close at 1 o'clock to-morrow ufter- noon in order to give all the city employés who desire a chanco to attend Mr. Taylor's funeral, Comstussioxer WALLER bas written a letter to Mr. John K. Walsh, the President of the South Park Bourd, protesting against un increase of from five to thirteen gas limps on Michizan av- enue boulevard,—that is, adding eight lamps where five are now employed in tho gus-lighting of the street. Mr. Waller insists that this would be an imposition upon the taxpayers in general, asit would entail an annual expenditure of $6,000 for street-lighting alone. He believes thut no more jamps are needed, and if they are, the people of the city at large should not be taxed for maintuiuing and lighting them. THE CCUNTY-BUILDING. ‘Tne Collector sold Lake View property for taxes yesterday without completing the sale in the town. The unsold property will be dispozed of to-morrow. AMELIA NEILSON was brought to the jail yes- terday to awuit a hearing on the charge of being insane. She was quite demonstrative during the day, und there is scarcely u doubt about ner condition. Anna BUELL commeticed a suit for divorce in the County Court yesterday from Adeclaran Buell on the ground of desertion. She claims that he left her Apri 15, 1879, without cause, and hast not been heard of since. Tue Grand Jury disposed of twenty-three cases yesterday and found seventeen true bills, allof uminor character. The jail was visited during tho day, und the Sheriff requested to ‘uve twenty-five cases ready for a hearing to- morrow, the object being to clear the docket of all jail cases as early as possible. AncnirEectT EGAN will to-morrow send a com- munication to the County Board asking the ap- pointmentof a special committee to assist him in auditing Contractor Sexton's claims for ex- tras, damages, delays, ctc., which have been pending fur sometime. Mr. Ean says he is sat- ised that whatever bis individual report might de -in the matter the Board would insist upon fearing, Far up, und, if they aid aor easton would, ec is. communication, ie claims aggre- gute about $69,000. aa ‘Tue work of painting and calcimining the North Side builaing was abandoned yesterduy at nivon, and the tuilure of the contractors is now regarded as comptete. The entered upon tho job, it appears,’ without money or experience; and the consequence is their workmen have been duped, the County hus been imposed upon, and those who have furnished them the material are likely to whistle for thefr money for sume time. The work they have donc fs generally in- ferior, and much of it will have to be done over. ‘Tuy August term of the Criminal Court will open to-morrow, Jude Gurdner presiding. The ealendar embraces seventy cuses, muny of which are old,and must prove tedious when tried. ‘Among tho cases are several murders, including that of James Tobin, which 1s on the call for to- morrow. The culendur also iucludes the cases ot Frederick Grimm, Henry Meyer, Gribler and Patten, Abraham Lobinson (the fire-bug), and George Van Hollen. As soon as the building 1s in reudiness Judge Williamson's branch of the court will commence work, but this will not be until tho September culendar has been pre- pared. A QUEER-LOOKING BILL. TheCommittee on Town and Town Accounts was in session yesterday and passed upon vari- ous bills foroutdour relief. Among the bills presented was one by Dr. John Zahu, of Han- over, for attendauce upon a smull-pox patient and Fumiyating the premises after the unfort- unute bud died. The bill amounted to $12), aud would uot have been objected to, perhaps, but for the fact that it was itemized. ‘To start with he clnimed four days’ attendance at $5 per day, and his next gchurge was for four balf-day"s services in di@nfecting at tho: rato of $20 per day. Then he added an itemof $¥ for disin- fecting .the body, and another of tho same amount for disinfecting the house and furniture, ‘The Committee could not see. the justice of the claim arainst the county to start with, and then aguin they could not understand the items; and the mutter was dis- ‘posed of by its being agreed to invite the Doctor tocome forward and explain. The Committce has in the past encouraged physicians to put in has recent! its possessions. Dills largely in excess of what they should be, and this, no doubt, is one ot the results. ‘THE COUNTY OPFICES. There is considerable interest manifested in the result of the coming election for county ollicinis. It is generally conceded that- some changes. will “be made, but who _ will be eet of, or who put on, is the merest conject- ure. It is announced, however, that 2 combina- Uon has been made looking to giving ‘Warden- ship to Joe Dixon, ex-Chiet of Detectives. Com- inissioner O'Neil is understood to be ut the head of the movement, and he is not particular whether Warden Peters or Warden Mills is su- perseded. Then, again, there is a move in favor of the County Hospitat being turned over to the care of a physician, which appears to be in tho interest or Dr. Hugenbach, of the Insane Asy- Jum: so no one can tell what the result will be. If Hagenbach should be successful in his run, it is understood that Commissioner | Ayars will be urged by another combination for Peters’ placc, ns against Dixon. Taking it all in ail, things are decidediy mixed, but it appears to be foregone eonclu- sion that in the ollices named a change will be ide. For tho oftice of County Physician there does not appear to be any organized opposition to the redlection of Dr. Blutbardt, and the same is the case with the ottices of County Agent and Superintondent of the. insane Asylum. Comumitteo Clerk Nr. Nash will have some oppo- sition, it is suid, but who bis opponent will bo bas not transpired. Very. little ts boing sald about the other.ollices, but the fight for piace promises to grow livelier every day until atter tho election. THE FIRE ORDINANCE. SOME VIOLATERS PUNISHED. The persons recently summoned to answer the charge of violating the fire ordinance ap- peared before Justice Kaufmann in the North Side Police Court-yesterday morning, and were prosecuted by: Buitding-Inspector Wilkie. There were thirteen cases in all, Eight of the defend- ants wero tined, and five secured continuances until the 0th. J.Cronan, who lives ou Waubansia avenue, near Paulina street, took outa permit to build ashed 16x16 and 12 fect high, but he constructed one 14x2t and Ii feet hig! dic was fined $15. <Augtist Kiens. of No. 213 Commercial strect; ‘yuilt a frame addition to bis house, and was ss- sessed $10. Frank Koroski, of Girard street, near Hermit- age avenue, who was an old offender, baving previously paid $100 for breaking the sume law, built asbanty without a permit, and his sen- tence was &: Martin Keating, of No. 109 McHenry strect, was charged $15 for putting a wooden basement under his house. = William Nagic, of No. 612 West North avenue, was let off with $5, be having put a shingle roof on a building used for business purposes. Jonu Spike, of No. 150 California avenue, was called on to'plend to two charges,—setting a buliding on wooden sills so that it was bigner than allowable, and mising a rear addition and increasing its size. He was fined $20,—$10 in each case. ‘ J.L. Noran, of No. 172 West Indiana street, took out a permit to build the regulation shed, Dut began one 20x24, and-twenty feet. high—a regulurhouse, He paid $50. Tn. tho tirst five eases the Enes were not puid, the parties having twenty days in which to make up thoir, minds ‘whether thoy will appeal or band over tbe cash, Those olfenders have been prosecuted and punished, but to what yood? The sheds and fire-trups they put up are still in existence, und the Superin- tendent of Buildings has no authority to tear them down. The provision of the old ordinance under which this could have been dono w somchow omitted from the * Municipal Cod and nll that can now be done is to tine people who ignore the pravisions in regard to tramo vuildings. The Council Committee on Fire and Water ought to look into this matterand recom- mend the restoration of the old -section or f Similar one, so that the intent of the law shall not be defeated and the law itself made ot no avail for its purpose,—the lessening of the dan- ger from tire. 3 ‘Ine ‘TRIBUNE hus been requested to call the attention of the proper authorities to $ THE MANY VIOLATIONS OF THE BUILDING AND FIRE ORDINANCES committed in the obstructing of streets with piles of lumber. That the violations exist and ure duily increasing is apparent to any one who, emg cognizant of the law on the subject, will take the trouble to look about him while pass- ing through the lumber district.

Robey street, from a point about 500 feet south of Blue Island uvenue to the river, i3 blocked to a considerable’ extent by curs and pilesof jumber. The lacter is loaded into tho cars from the yards skirting the street. ‘In fuct the strect is given over to the unrestricted uso of the lunber-dealers who take advantage of the situation by keeping the thoroughfare practically impassable. Morguu street is piled with lumber belonging to the Ludington Lember Company. ‘The following violations of tho Building Ordi- nance have also been noticed: No. 264 Taylor street, frume barn Mx16 and sixteen fect in hizht, at rear of premise: _No. 256 Ewing street, a one-story. frame addi- tion to dwelling.

DRIVING PARK MATINEE. The first of the regular series of Saturday afternoon matinées to be given by the Chic: go Driving Park Association before the open- ing of the Chicago Live Stock and Agricult- ural Fair, Sept 13 to 17, occurred yesterday afternoon at the Driving Park, and those present witnessed some good: sport. The crowd was much larger than was expected, and there wasa number of ladies in attend- | ance. The Association proposes to make this Series of matinées an interesting one, and the local turfmen are aiding them by set- tling old scores and disputes as_ to who are the possessors of the fast- est horseflesh. Already several match races have been arranged, and several stakes were put up yesterday to.be contested for next Saturday afternoon. ‘There were seven races on the card yesterday, and all were decided with the exception of the 2:2 pacing class, which was thrown out. ‘The munagement judiciously made tho trotting races tho best two heats in three, and sandwiched in a. couple of running dashes to give varicty to the program. Mr. W. Sewull’s double team was en- tered fora mice, but us no other team put in wn appearance Mr. Sewail trotted them two miles aguinst time, making tho second mile in 2: He says tho boys are afraid of bim. ‘The results of the races may be seen from the following summaries: S.

The Buffalo Couricr has been publishing ven-pictures of noted owners and drivers of trotters, and has the following to say con- cerning Mr. H. Y. Bemis, of this city: Mr. H, V. Bemis, of Chicazo, ig a man about 43 yearsof age, a resident of the Western metropo- lis for fifteen years, the owner of an extensive brewery, and the possessor of much weultn, both in property and hurd cash. ‘There is nothing pe- nurious about him; on the contrary, he has dis- tinguished himself for liberality of purpose. of heart, and of purse. In fact, itis weil known that an appeal to him for worthy assistance 1s never made in vain, and when bis heart ts touched the pursestrings are invariably loos- ened. He’ is a man of rare business capacity, executive ability, and hus the happy faculty of being financially successful in whatever enter- prise he en: itis tastes are of tho culti- sin enjoying life in nc in his palutial home, estublishinent, —sur- rounds himself with everything | that is Tare, costly, beautiful, and ‘attractive. He hus a passion for tho artistic, and his house and business office ure filled with a collection of paintings that would excite the envy and ad- iiration of the most critical connoisseur, cither of their yulue or execution. Among the large number ig Bierstudt’s grand painting of the Yosemite Vatiey, which was publicly exbibited at the Crosby Opera-flouse and other places, and cost Mr. Bemis a good round sum. But he counts his thousands where many another mun can only deal with cents. He is by fur tne lar- gest single stockholder in tuo Chicuro Park Association. It fell into bis hands purtly by ne- cident, and under his manngerial direction it hus been developed into x wealthy and Hourish- ing enterprise. In fact, ho is the main spoke in the whecl—tho bead and front, tho very life and sou! of the Association. Mr. Bemis’ first experience with trotters was in 1878, when he bought Bonesetter’ while | attending 2 raee between that horse and Protean, in which tho latter won amid great excitement. Tle pxid $10,000 for the animal, and trotted him three successful seatons. Up ‘to tho time of death, Bonesetter had won for him between $25, 000 und $24,000 in purses. He dropped dead on the track during the late Pittsburg races. His remuins were buricd just inside the gute of the driving park, und the Association intend to ercet a monument to bis memory. After he got hold of Bonesetter,: Mr. Bemis bought Fred Douglass for $5,000 or $6,000.si1e is the owner of Sorre! Dan, the’ pacer. with a record of 2:14, for. whom he paid 312.000. Last fall be purchased Little Brown Jug fora large sum, and had the sutisfuction at the Inte Chicago mecting of sec- ing him pace in 2:12! and come within a quarter of x second of cqualing the fastest pacing rec- ord. ‘The probubilities are that, taking bis road horses and trotting stock together, Mr, Bemis hus the most valuable stuble west of tho lakes. proper a, ut in. “his CHARLOTLE, MICH.

All the stakes for the Loulsyilie fall meeting have filled well. E Krupp Gun, a runner owned in St. Louis, has gone wrong in both front legs. The running horse Kimball injured himself recently while being practiced over hurdles. Josephus is now being driven by William Sar- gent, the man who brought out St. Julien and his full brother, St. Reino. . Monroe Chiof is running out on the farm of Dr. Herr, near Lexington, Ky., but will be put in condition and trot a few races this fall. The 7-year-old stailion Troy, by Menclaus, out of amare bya son of Mambrino Chief, owned by A. D. Doughty, of this city, died recently. Sannic G,, record 2:27, and owned by Commo- dore Kittson, of Minneapolis, hus developed a quurter crack, and been throwi out of training. ‘Tho trotting horse Dick Moore, record 2:22! died recently at Boston. He was sired by Be inont, and was owned by George A. Ayer. His death was caused by congestion of the lungs. The 3-year-old filly Spark, the property of Mr. Pierre Lorillard, kicked a stable attendant Inst Tuesday, fracturing tho man’s sicull and pro- ducing injuries which will probably prove futal. Brakspeare, the brother to Wallenstein, that was shipped to England by Mr. Keene Inst'year, wus purchased by Mr. Patmorefor 20) guineas after winning a selling race at Brightou re- cently. ” Chester F., the horse that has been trotting in the two-mile heat races through the Central Circuit, was sired by Mercury (a full brother to Enfield), bis dam being by Magnolia, a son of ‘American Star. j Milton Young has purchased from J. A. Grin- stend thé :byeitr-old colt Perplex. by Gilray, dam Perhaps, ber dui Mishap (the dam of Mistake). Perpiex is # good colt, and has already won two raves ut Saratoga. Orrin. Hickok recently offered to bet $7,500 to $10,600 that Santa Claus could beat Piedmont a race in October. Mr. S.J. Morgun, the owner of Piedmont, at once offered to make the match, but notbimr came of it. James Murphy, tho well-known _turfman, whose stables at Louisville were destroyed by fire recently, refused to receive 2 purse made up for bitn by. citizens of that town, saying that he bad enough good horses left to puit him through. Peter V. Johnson had a little * unpleasant- ness” at. Rochester with Mr. L. P. ‘Thoup- sou, the owner of tho stailion J.B. Thomas. Peter very properly refused to drive the horse ug the owner wished, and tho consequence was that ‘Thomas passed into Splan‘s stable. When anybody places a horse‘in Johnson's hands the animal will be driven to win, Jobn S.

Secre- tary Hull is now in the East securing attractions for the event, his principul desire being to bring to this city the best field of . steeplechase horses ever got toyether. Aside from running and trotting races every day, the display of draft- horses alone will be something phenomenal, as about two hundred of these animals wiilbe on the grounds, A trotting matinée will be given by the Cen- tral Park Driving Association at their track next Saturday. Atthis matinée any gentleman in the city owning a roadster is invited to pur- ticipste, and may enter bis horse at the track up tu 2 o'clock on the day of the races. Classes will be arranged from the 3:00 to the “ free for all both to wazon and suiky. A gentleman of. this city bus announced his intention to match his double team against that of Mr. Bart Sewell for the best two in three hents, which will no doubt prove the event of the duy, Itis due to Mr. John ifuber, of the North Side, to state that his horse Logau B won tho race in the 2:35 class at this track one week ago yesterday, the fourth heat having been reported erroncously. “ Albion," in tho Spirit of the Times, says: “Checkmate fs a great horse. That be is un- questionnby entiticd to this distinction no one denies. His performances at this place are the most remarkable in tho annals of the American turf.” Ho has won four races here,—to-wit: The Excelsior Stakes, one mile and a quarter,with 17 pounds up, in 2:08}; the Saratoga Cup, two miles and u quarter, with 120 pounds up, in 4:03; the Summer Handicap, one mite and a halt, with 119 pounds up, in 2:35!3: end the Grand Pi of Sar- atoga, one mile ‘und three-quarters, with It pounds up, in 3:01}4. When the weight, age, distance, and the character of the horses he met are considered, these must be necepted us the best performances to be found in the annals of the Ainerican turf.” ‘The death of the celebrated bay stalion Bone- setter remindsus forcibly of the death of a staze horse in Uniontown nt the stage yard, which had. been driven by Capt. Bill Whaley from Morgautown, a distance of twenty-tlve miles. ‘About a quarter of a century ago thestage route between Uniontown and Morgantown was an important one, aud railroad hands were carried in large numbers between these two points. As many as sixteen persons have been noticed in and on top of a_ single coach while Mr. Whuley was tho driver. On the occasion referred to, Just as Capt. Whuley landed his passengers in Uniontown, one of bis horses dropped dead, and a bystander reprimanded him for driving ‘with such speed is to cause the death of one of bis horses. Capt. Whiley had a peculiarly vivid imagination, and for the purpose of making it appear that be was the most. successful driver that ever handied tho ribbous, said: My dear fellow, that borse died at Browntiddietown, nine miles ‘south of this place, but I didn't Ict him fall til L got to town.""—Jowa State Kegister.
