An Apparent Attempt to Force Ofi- cers Out, There seems to be much queer work going on in regard to tho jail and police headquarters. All sorts of rumors and statoments are afloat, and two explana tions seem to meet with favor, one being that somebody is plotting to get ofticers removed, in order to make room for pets, or that some one is’really scting crooked, and trying to throw suspicion on to others to evade detection. The matter should ba investigated thoroughly by the author- ities, and all the facts broucht clearly out. P. D. Mottaz, who has proved an efficiont and accomodating city jailer, has had even his remarkable good nature worn out by the annoyances to ahich he has been sabjected by those who frequent the police headquarters. He proposes to resign rather than submit any longer. Ho keeps a reccrd of the prisoners, with a rocord of the effects taken from them when searched before being looked up. This book has been tampered with two or three times. One time & prisoner was credited with having about $23, and some one changed this on the book to $5. Another time a prisoner had only ten cents, and this was changed by some one totwenty cents. Tools, tobacco, articles of olothing, etc., have been taken. The jailor has kept locked up in & room the bottles of whisky taken from prisoners and most of these have been emptied in some mysterious manner. He has a little cupboard in which he tries to lock up different articles, but this has been meddled with, and even the safe has been tampered with. Much of this has apparently been done to annoy him, while other acts have been out-and- out theft. Aside from this, he claims that he has been obliged to run errands, serve papers and notices, go the bank and the newspaper offices for the clerk, and, in fact, been treated as an errand- boy. He claims also that he has been treated as though he was not to he trusted, which seems to strike him hard, a8 he has lived here for years, and has a solid reputation for honor in all things. The 1,200 city clerk scems to have a suspicion that there is somothing wrong about the meal-tickets, and has inquired in an insinuating way, what he was do- ing with his money, and seems to think that the old man is fit only to do his beck and call. Then he was to be on du- ty most of the day and night, and when he feign would eleep in his room at the jail, policemen instead of being out on their beats, came inte the station and hung about laughing and carrying on to- gether, so that he gets no rest. The city jailor seems to be gratified in thus resign- ing and he says the only condition on which he will remain in the position are that his duties may be defined, that he may have only one ‘‘boss”, and that these shall annoyances cease. It seems like a petty little schemo to force the old man out of the position to make room for some pet. It is to be hopped that the mayor and police committeo to whom the matter was referred, may have sense enough and sand enough to get sll tho facts, and not lend themselves to any scheme, if there is one. S. E. Burdick has filed an affidavit with the city counall, setting forth that Officer O'Brien arrested him without cause, and took him to the station house, where he searched him, took $8 from iim, and locked him up on a charge of Leing drunk, He claims that the officer dio not credit the money on the book, and the next day on being acquitted of the charge, tho money taken from him was not returned. In fact, he charges Officer O'Brian with robbing him of $8, The mayor and police committee are investigating the mat- ter. The officerthus charged, claims that in passing a saloon he heard a little rum- pus and the keeper was trying to get Burdick out, and not being nb{n to do so called on tho officer, who tried to per- suade Burdick to go home, but the latter becoming abusive and being drunk, he took him by the collarand run him in, O'Brien avows that he searched Burdick in the presence of two witnesses, and that nosuchmoney was found on him, The officer left on the jail register the names of the witnesses who would testify that the man was drunk, and that Mar- shal Guanella did not subpeena them, and did not notify him when the trial was to come off, so that there were no prose- cuting witnesses on hand aud the latter was discharged, He then made a kick about the money which he claimed he had. Officer O'Brien e that in the saloon where he arresf him Burdick was trying to stand the barkeoper off for & glass of beer, promising that he would pay for it the next day, by which if true, it does not appear that he had any money, Officer O'Brien has filed an informa- tion charging Burdick with per- jury and ssys he won't the whole matter cleared up in eve particular, and let the real blame fall where it will. Another fellow nasmed Callahan says he was also a victini, He claims that he had 815, and that he got a few drink which made him drunk and he was a rested. This was last Friday night. He does not seem to be very certain as to exactly how much money the officer found on him, but thinks it must have been in the neighborhood of 12 or more, but when he was sobered up the next morning he fonnd that he had only 83.30. Ofticer O'Brien who arrested him says that was all he found oo him when he searched him Callahan claims that tnere had been credited on the book $13,80 and that afterwards the ‘‘one" |ixuax, tation D. New York. had been scratohed off. Alnerman Myns. tor examined the book and said 1t ap- peared to him that there had been an orasure, Officer O'Brien says he simply put down the amount, which was 3 30, and thatfwas all there was, and no eras- ures or side marks were made by him Of ocourse it would have been foolish, even if O'Brien wanted to be dishonest, for him toghave put down £13 30, and then charged 83 30, as he might as well have put down only 83 30 in the first place, ns there Was no ono clse there Oflicer O'Brien has an excellent record, and is highly spokenZof, and this incident following on the heels of the other, indi- oates that some one seoms determined to got him in trouble if possible. — Sweet potato plants—largest “stock in the west—by W.

Abe Buford, of Kentucky, recalls a story he told dur- ing his last visit to Chicago, *I have vassed through many trying and perilous scones,” ho ssid to a party of friends, ‘‘but never felt so near death’s door as at Springfield, Til., just after the war. To begin with, 1 had a narrow escape during a T our fighting in Georgia, Our forces w.»r: IS oncamped with the Union troops in our front. The seniry lines were thrown out as usual. One day 1 passed through the lines to make some observations at a dis tant point. I was unattended but mount ed_upon a powerful horse. During my absence the Union forces drove back our lines and occupied the same ground with their own pickets. I'his was unknown to me, and 1 was sur- prised and alarmed on my return to be haulted by & Union soldier. 1 attempt- ed to ride on, The soldier tried to stop my horse with his bayonet. Drawing my revolver 1 fired at him, and rode to camp without waiting to see the effect of the shot. The war went on and finally ended. We surrendered to the supertor forces of the Union side, and I went home. Soon afterward I went to Springfield to get some horses which I had left in charge of Willis Renfrow. On the day of my arrival a large number of Union soldiers were mustered out of the servico. They, literally swarmed into the hotel whero 1 waa stopping. Protty soon 1 discovered thoy were oyeing mo vory closely. The more they did 50 the more excited they became, Their excitement made me nervous, and not a little frightened when 1 reflected that I was alone, without friends, and in the midst of soldiers just from the scenes of conflict that had aroused all their bit- torncss toward the South, As an officer in the confederate army, I felt that 1 would bear no small share of their ha. tred. This thought frightened me be- yond measure, For the first time in my lifo I was really afraid, because I be- lieved that if the wsoldiers became aroused there would be no escape for me. The landlord came over and urged me to conceal before an outbreak oc- curred. Although terribly scared, I had no thought of showing the white feather. I merely wentup to my room, secured my revolver and came back to my seat, watching the crowd over the paper that I pretended to read, After awhile a man wearing a corporal's uniform came in. Several of the soldiers ran to him in an excited manner, 1 could not hear what was said, but I knew I was the sub- ject of the talk. The corporal went to the hotel register, looked at my name name and then came toward me. Behind him were several of the men. A score of them were eagerly watching the scene from the other side of the room. The landlord with blanched face, stood be- hind tha counter, and I could see he was frozen with terror, As the corporal and his comrades came toward mo, my hair literally stood on end. I could feel the blood leave my face. With all my pow- er of self control I'could not conceal my agitation. 1 folt that after going through the perils of war 1 was to die at the hands of a mob. No man can portray his foelings at such a time. Though great strength was demanded, I was so weak I could hardly stand. When the corporal approached me ho nsked if I was Gen. Buford, With a faeble voice I told him that 1 was. “Do you remember the Union soldier ou shot when breaking though the {Jnlon lines in Georgia?” he asked. I do,” was my repl “Iam that man,” id the soldier, “and I want to thank you for merely wounding my arm,” The man held out his hand. 1 never was so glad to shake a hand in my life. The peril I had sup- posed I was in had caused great beads of sweat to cover my face. As 1 took his hand I sank exhausted in a chair, looked upon the corporal as m 5 When he grasped my hand I felt that I had gone trom hell to heaven. The other soldiers crowded around. It scems they were only excited because a late onemy was there. Before I left we all drank to our common country and agreed to for- get that we hed been enemies. { think that is tho pidst thrilling personal exper- ience I svfm d.” DEWEY & STONE'S.
