THE DALLY BE K WEDNESDAY DE CEMB&R (7 188 CHANGIHG THE PLANS. Ths Proposed Retaining Wall Next the vourt House Not to be Built A Visit to be Made to Architect Mey- ora by the Uounty Commissioners to Securo His Advice, This afternoon County Commlissionera Corliss, O'Keeffs and Knight wiil etart on & visit to several of the castern cities and will be gone about ten dayd. Within the last two weeks these coun- ty officials havo had grave apprehensions that their plans and thoso of Architect Meyera of grading down the Farnam front of the mnew court house and constructing the retaining walls, could mnot be cffectually carried out. It was origioally intended by them to bring down this front to a proper grade and having done this to construct a re- talning wall whoee base ehould be ten foet below the concrete base of the foun- dation of the court houss and to be only four feet farther out. This has been found lately to be impracticable, as the immenso weight of the building upon this frail foundation would impair its safety. This project will, therefore, be abandoned, aud another subatituted. The feasibility of putting in a substantial retaining wall onfy two feet outside of the line of the street, Is being discussed, and meots the general approval of the county com- missioners, Should this be adopted the uso of four feet of the sidewalk space will be necessitated, as a place for the baee of the stairway leading up to the court house. While gone tho commissioners will visit Detroit and interview Architect Meyers upon this change of planand ob. {ain his views in the premises, That gentleman was tolegraphed yesterday of their intended visit to hts city within a fow days. The commissioners will also inspect tho court house struc- tures in Ohicago and the pub- ie buildings of several other titiss, After leaving Datroit tho county officials will go to Saginaw. Micbh., and probably enter into a contract with tirneat Fiego the contractor for the far- niture for the new court house, to also furnigh it with cheirs. They will then go te New York and purchase chanda- liors for the county building if suitable prices can be got. . When these pieces of furnituro have been obtained arrange- ments will have been made for a complete furnishing of the new court house. The kind of chalrs to be purchased has not yet been determined and the commiasioners will probably act npon the advice of srchitect Meyers in the matter. The estimated cost of the chandaliers is nearly $3,500. o —— Seal of North Carolina Smoking To- bacco ia the best. e — THE TRIAL TRIBUNALS. Conncelly Discharged — The Lovejoy Oase Now on Trial, 1n the pollce court yesterday afiernoon Goorge Wagner was brought before Judge Beneke on his preliminary exam- ination on the charge of burglarizing a store on Tenth street on the night of Dscember 10th. Mart Connelly, who has been incarcer- ated in the county jail since November 23d, on the charge of complicity in burn- ing Nettie Howard, was discharged by Judge Beneke, and the examlnations of Thompson and “‘English L for the 22d of this month. In the county court, Judge McCulloch declared a dividend of 156 per cent ad- ditional to that of 45 per cent declared sssignment. There is still sufficient in Octoberin the Bradford & Piercy property lefc for another dividend of 10 per cent. Constable J. F.

K. Valentine, for the defense, be allowad to testify without objection of counsel for plaintiff, A jury was then empanslled in the eame, Assistant District Attorney Bar- kett tor his clisut and Juige Thurston for tho defense, stated to the jury what they expected to prove. From stato- ments of counsel for defendant they will attempt to show contributory negligence on the part of plaintiff and will try and digprove the exccution «f the bond by tho suretics, On application of C. N. Powell, Esq., attorney for plaintiff in the case i the West Point Butter and Chee ciation, Arthur 8. Potter, of this was appolnted receiver. He wi Te- quired to enter into a $10,000 bond fo the falthful performance of his daties, Graham Bradley and John S.

The Buckingham Theatre In the Meshes of the Law, Yeiterday morning action was com- menced in the district court by tho Northwestern Electric Light company against John Nugent, Bob Green and George W. Duncan, proprietors of the Buckingham theatre, for the total sum of £425.60, This amount ls for the unse of the electric light which has so brightly swung in front of the well known Twelfth street varietics, and led so many tirongh indignjty's way. In addition to the regular suit a writ of attachment was asked for and granted on the ground that the defendants were dis- posing or about to dispose of their prop- erty with the Intention of defraudiug thelr creditors. It is thought that this will virtually close up the Buckingham unless one of the defendants, who is a man of means, comes to the rescue Indi- vidually. All good citizens hope that the end has come and the lovers of good or- der can heartily proelaim: **So much for Bucklugham, Off with its head! " A MIDNIGHT BLAZE. One of Gen, Estabrook's Houses To- tally Destroyed by Fire, A few minutes after 12 o'clock last night an alarm was turned in from box 41, The fire was in a small story and a half cottage occupled by a colored lady named Ousley and several roomers, and situzted on the alley between Sixteenth and Seventeenth and Chicago and Cass streets. The flames had gained great headway before discov- ered and were extinguished only after they had almoest completely de- stroyed the building. Tho fire com- municatad with the carpenter shop oc- ciepied by Samuel Stephenson, and de- stroyed a great portion of the building and contents. The cottago was owned by Gen. Estebrook, and is thought to be partially covered by insurance. Mrs. Ousley's goods were unlnsured, Mr. Stephenson had policies to the amount of $1,100 on his builaing and contents, but he thinks this will not more than cover one-hslf his loss. The fire is aup- posed to have originated from a defec- tive flue. e ————— EURLINGTON VS. NORTHW ERN, THE FIGHT BETWEEN THESE TWO ROADS TO S WHICH OAN GET INTO THE NIOBRARA COUN TRY FIRST, Special to Omaha Bes. CHi10AGO, December 16.—The Tribune says: If reports are true, the Burlington is likely to head off the Northwestern in its attempt to reach the Niobrara country in northern Ne- braska. Asis generally known, the North- western has decided to extend its Sioux City & Pacific line ninety miles into the country, which is furnishing a large amount of cattle and other traflic. The construction of the ex- tension, however, is not to be commenced till next spring. The Burlington, it is learned, has now a corps of surveyors in tho field sur- veying the line from (irand Island, Neb., mnto the Niobrara country, which isto cover the same territory as is contemplated by the T- Northwestern hne. It is stated the Burling- ton means to commence the construction of its ling as soon as the surveyors get through with their work, and_expects to have it comploted boforo the Northwestern _has got fairly ready to commence the construction of ita line. The construction of this line by the Burlmy will affact the business of the Union Pacific as much, if not more, than that of the Nor western, us heretoforo the bulk of the brara buisiness went to the Union Pacific. It in probablo, however, that an understanding exists between the Burlington and the Union Pacific regarding this extension. —— The Trans-Continental Transjorta tion Association, Ciicaco, December 16,—The Times will say to-morrow that at a meating of the west- ern and northwestern roads to-day to consider the complaints of shippers, espacially those of Towa, that rates for transportation remain too high, in view of the low prices for grain, it was almost unanimously declared not to lower tho rates. The argument was made that dur- ing the period when the prices of grain were unusually high the freight rates were not ad- vanoed; \hat the market value of products has nothing to do with the rates for other ~ conveyances to market, Two local § I roads were the only onea favoring a reduction, The ¢ mmittes spent the entire aftarnoon in discussieg a plan of organization for tho as wociation for the next your, audreported abont six o'clock without adopting it.

There can be no quostion but that the politleal thought and the political action of Boglishmon of the present time have been not a little influenced by the vigor- ous and graphic series of cartoons which have eccured for Punch its world.wide fame and poeition of intluence that in the hustory ot satrical journal- jom has never been cqualled, The work of these caricaturers has value a8 a robust and characteriatic expression of English humor, as reflecting the chang- ing phases of the political thought of middle-class Kngland, and as a faithful. though humorous record of the cesential characteristics and achievements of the men_who for the past iifty years have ruled the British Empire. The publishers believe that many American readers are sufliciently interested in the affairs of thelr trans-Atlantic cousins, in the per- sonallty of the statesmen presented, and in political caricaturo as a fine art, to extend a cordial welcome to the republi- cation of cartoons. “Baby’s Kingdom” s the title of a beautiful volume that wiil delight every loving mother, and father, too, for that matter, We hardly know how to de- scribe it in order to do it justice.

The thick, gilt-edge leaves are encased in heavy golden covers, illuminated with still brighter gold-lettering and orna- mentation. The illustrations through- out the book are the work of an artist and are most beautifully colored. They show the career ¢f the baby from infancy to childhood, and there are numerous blanks to record the various events in its history, hich as its birth, its christening, its name, its weight, its firat tooth, its first step, its first word, and so on. There is an illu- minated page for a lock of baby's hair, another for its picture.

Important discoveries of rich veins, some of them aaid to equal the Comstock lode, have impelled the minera to invest heav- ilyin around Villa Rica, from which £2,000,000 were extracted In the decade preceding 1850, are now yielding im- mense sums daily. The Clopton mine has a veln 2,300 feet wide, which grows richor as it is penotrated. Thirty stamps will be running this winter. The Falls y mine is another which is glving a rich yield. Tho most extensive work, however, is being done by the Ernestine Company, com- posed of Louisville people, which has invested $100,000 in machinery the past summer, It hasan immense engine, with 50-horse power betler to run the machinery and holsting apparatus at the shaft. The drillingis done with com- preased air. It is said that §50,000 will be invested in machinery, which will make this one of the moat scientifically drilled mines in tho umion. Around Dahlonegaand Nucolsville, so well knowan to miners of forty yearsago, over 200 stamps are in operation. The great sen- sation of the Georgia gold belt, however, is connected with the mines situated in Cohuthah mountain, six miles from Spring Place. For years it has been a tradition among the natives that the mountain was a mass of solid gold; that it had been marked by De Soto as he croseed the continent seeking the great river. Those who had penetrated the fastnesses reported that evidences exlsted that work had been once carried on there. Anold furnace of rude design way described, and those who had ex- amined it found nuggets of gold worth from $20 to $50. One of the citizens of Murray, who visited the Chicago repub- lican convention, met there an old New Mexican miner named Winkles, to whom he told the tradition. With the epirit of adventure characteristic of his cun- ning, Winkles found his way to the spot. He spent a week In the mountain, and when he came back it was with such glittering tales of gold that he was re- garded as a visionary. His persistence was such that a few gentlemen agreed to humor him, formed a comvany and gave him a small sum of monoy to work on, This was about six weeks ago. The land on which the mines were discovered was purchased on conditions, and a small company went to work with a hearty good will. The mountain has been pen- etrated only fifteen or twenty feet and tunnelling has just been commenced. Solid masses of ore nave been encoun. tered from the beginning and the deeper the mincrs go the richeris the yield, The first assays averaged $2.40 por ton, the second assey averaged £10, and tho third and last 2ssay made shows an average of §100 por ton of ore, The value increasesd as the mountain is penetrated, and some epeci- mena taken out will assay $2,000 to the ton, Thedepth of the lead is anknown and {ts richuess beyond computation, Among the gentlemen whoee eervices were enlisted in the enterprise was but Mr, Smith Stevenson, who, however, had but little confidence in the wander- ing miner's representations, and who did more or less kicking when called upon for an additional appropriation to push matters. Linally to get rid of what he considered & *‘white elephant,” he sold hie claim t> Walter Anderson, of Spring- field, Gia., for §300. Me, Auderson has Just been offered and refused $30,000 for his claim, which was only one-sixth of the company’s stock, The sensation creatcd by these devel- opments among the miuers is wonderful, Lt sounds like the California talk of years ago., The mountain is daily being crossed by parties of men looking for indications, It is claimed that three other veins have been struck equal to this great mine, and partics are now negotiating for machinery to bogin work at three. This_mountain received its name from the Indiane, who had a fort upon it, the ruins of which are still to be eeen, Clay- ton, in Rabun county, and the apex of Cohouttah mountain were the two strate- gic pointa for all the Indlans from the Atlantic to the Mussisslppi river. At these two points the warriors would as- semble and awoop down upon the country on all sides and they would retreat to them whenever driven back by their ad- verseries. This region is rich in reminis- cences of Cherokee times, In fact many of the citizens have Indian blood in their veins, They were great gold hunters but, were very secrefive, keeping the knowl- edge of mines to thomselves. This knowledge is now in possession of many of these half-breeds who after the discov- ery cf the points w1ll at once tell of their past history, and from the awakening which is now taking place ia Georgia mines & lively year may be expected among the gold hunte: A Pugllist Charged with Muarder, PHILADELPHIA, December 16,—Jas, Mitch- ell, pugilist, was arrested on the charge of wurder, The alleged murder was » fight be- tween Mitchell and Muldoonnesr Yarleyville, Bucks county, & year 8go, and Muldoon died of his injuries, o —— A Lucky Blowap, Syiacuse, N.
