Tascors, July 8.—[Special to Tnr Bee.]— The May term of district court was finally adjourned sino die at 11 o'clock this morn- ing, and a number of entries made in unim- portant cases. Saturday a judgment of £20,000 was enterod n favor of C.A. Hanna and against the raska Stock Yards company, Today J. S. Gregory comes Into court with a long affl- davit in which he insists that the intorests of justice demand that tho judement be set aside, as ho had a defense that will hold water in any court. Thedefense is that the notes sued on wero paid long ago, and that this is simply an attempt to squeeze out the smaller fry in the stock yards company. Some interesting scraps aro anticipated. Mra. James Ledwith and her brother-in. law John had a little set-to before Judge Lansing this morning. John is executor of his deceased brother's estate, and his widow s him romoved beeause ho refuses to ver to her the £100 a month allowance ded in the will. John refuses to pay over the money because ho says part of it is for tho maintenance and education of the children and Mrs. James is extravagant and pays too much for their education. The de- cision was reserved. Fourth of July Pardons. Governor Crounso signed two Fourth of July pardons today.

Mr. Mosher came down from Omaha yesterday morning and returned Inst night at 11:05 over the Rock Island. The fact that Mr. Mosher was un- attended by an officer is due to the $10,000 bond given by Mr. C. O. Whedon which still holds good. GOOD CRO! 30 trot, froe-for- ASS ED.

As arule Monday mornings in polica court are busy times, but for several weeks noth- ing special turned up and the grist was very light. A half dozen drunks came first and were let off with a small fine; then came the vagrants and there was some fun. As each “would mnot work” appeared before his honor he was given a street sentence or al- lowed to depart, provided he left the city at once. Frank Allen, an old vimer, drew a thirty-day ticket, and his chum, Will Davis, Rot thirty-five daysin jail. Both men are chronic vagrants and prefer to spend their time iniprison to getting out and hustling for something to eat. Two little negro schoolboys were locked up for shooting fircerackers before the Fourth. They pleaded ‘rrcuy hard, and the kind-hearted judge told them to go. The boys didn’t even stop to thank his honor, but made a short cut through the crowd for the nearest deor. No Monday morning session is complete without Pat Kearney, and after business had slacked up a little Lho‘fudgn askod Sergeant Ormsby where his old siandby was. *Oh, he is here,” sald the sergeant, and up trotted Pat. “It's $10 and costs,” quietly remarked the judge ns Pat mosied up. “But I am going p drinking, your honor, and go to work. The court murmured something about that being a chestnut and then said: “I'will fine you §25 and costs and suspend the sentence, but if you ever come here again I will enforce it.” Patrick thanked the court kindly and went forth a free man. Charley Hart and Frank Horton, both tough looking, tried to explain why they wore rubber-soled shoes and hung around the residence portion of the city. They could not doi% and so both will clean streots, gutters and alleys for ten days. By the time Frank Johuson came to the front the judge was looking cross and wanted to know why the prisoner carried a lot of skeleton keys and a crooked button hook. Sergeant Whalen was called and said that Johnson had been arrested late Satur- day night by Omicer Ellis, ard while on the waly to the Jail had tried to throw away the keys and hooks. “Where did you work last,” asked the judgo. ‘I was a waiter in Denver,” replied the prisoner. “I guess," said his honor, “ttat several people are waiting for these keys; forty-five days on the streets.” Detective Vizard left this forenoon for Sioux City to bring back a prisoner who is wanted for an unnatural crime. William H. Crary filed a complaint this morning against John Kelly and several John Does’ charging them with disturbing the peace on the Benson car line yesterday. Ouly Kelly has been arrested, but theothers ll‘x:)]]l icated will be brought in as soon as pos- sible. *“The ‘vag’ season has just opened,” said a well known detective this morning as he looked over the array of toughs in the police court. *“What we noed is o good stone yard; a few days work on a rock pile would cure a lot of these fellows, aud they would get out, thon the reports of petty crimes would be de- creased.” 'This idea is favored by nearly all of the detectives and police officers. Chief Seavey is packing up preparatory to removing his office to the city gul[ John Metcalf, a 15-year-old boy and the son of o hard-working expressmaun, threw a brick through the window of & gable train yesterday and was arrested. His trial will come up later. The three men, Fay, Burke and Johnson, who were arrested Saturday by the detec- tives for robbing J. C. McMahon of 8500 on the Eleventn streot viaduct, were in court but will be held a few days longer on sns- picion. McMahon cannot ldontify the pris- oners and the officers will try and have them sent up for vagraney. Dicic McGee was fined 85 and costs for belog an inmateof a house of prostitution.

SCORCHING BREATH OF A BALL OF FIRE Story of a New Mexican Soldier Who Died ~He Oame Back for fis Blankets After a Trip to Puor- - gatory, “Aot?” remarked W. K. Moretz, a woll known Montana mining man at thé Millard yesterday. ‘‘Yes, it is, just a little. But youought to get down into New Mexico about now, as I've been. “You needn't say I said so,” he added, “bocause, if you do, they'll not doa thing bat kill me whenover 1 happen to' go baclk. But, the fact is, if the infernal regions are hot, Arizona and New Mexico, just now, are ~well, they're hotter. 1t begins to get hot beforo you strike the eastarn Colorado line, and after you get into New Mexico it gets worse, and by the time you get to Rincon, N. M., you begin to con- clude that Dante's Inferno was not alla dream. “Affer leaving Rincon the appearance of tho country is quite decelving, You think, maybe, it is hades, but it 1sn’t. It is only the beginning of a stretch of territory in New Mexico and Arizona that is so hot and dry that tho inhabitants find 1t diffioult to teil the truth. There was a soldier once (probably more than once) stationed at & post in southern Arizona, who died and was duly buried. About three days after his death, however, ho aston- ished his comrades by appearing in the barracks ono hot afternoon, shivering and with teeth chattering as if he had the ague. ** ‘Hullo, Smith ! said a sergeunt, ‘where've you been?" “‘‘B-b-b-been in sheol an'I c-c-come b-back fer my b-b-blankets !’ “The inhabitants of the country tell this as o joke, but, somehow, it strikes the unac- climated’ person too forcibly as having a good deal of possible truth in it. “Serlously, however, there are worse_cli- mates than this, barring the dryness. If a fow troes and a bit of grass could be sprinkled about the country would be quite bearable. Despite the intenso heat of the sun one can slways keep moderately cool in- doors, and the nights are invariably cool and refreshing. But the out of doors vart of life down hero 1s sad and gives one that tired feeling, if one hasn’t it already. You can soe its offect on the inhabitants, the ani- and even the scenery. The flirtatious and giddy prairie dog is less agile than his northern brothers, the hollow- eyed and musical coyote, prima donna of the plains, scorns to assume aught but a haughty, dignified gait and subduea vocal- isms. “And then, the scenery, as they are pleased to call it down there. A lit- tle sand and rock, and a few cacti and Spanish bayonets look well, indeed, isolated in the couservatory ofa pork prince ora soap magnate; but when you see nothing but miles and milos of them, they have a depressing effect, especially if you own the land and your cattle are stary- ing to death on it. The unostentatious but insinuating cactus and the stately and sapo- naceous Spanish bayonet (in the vernacular, “isonp-weed") look first-rate, in perspoctize— say, on the pages of a geography, 2,000 miles from there—but in that corner they don’t attract much attention, unless one is 50 unfortunate as to meet them in the darlk. The cacti are covered with thorns, same as geography cacti (known in Now Mexico as cactuses), but they don’t stick into one so very, very far, But the ‘soap-weed,’ (with its tall, straight pole, decorated at the top with o cluster of largo blossoms very like lities of tho valley) is different. 1 know, for T'yo tried it. One of those long speers would jab throurh a 2x2 scantling, and is long enough to file a millionaire philanthropist’s anaual grist of touching appeals on. Practical Identity. “The cact, too, have blossoms, but they are rather on the loud poppy style of beauty. Cacti grow in curious shapes, the most ‘i comfortablo of which is the recumbent shape. The plant in this shapo is not unlike a flat stons, when seen in the gathering gloom. It is easy, however, to ascertain whether the object is a flat stone or a cactus, by simply sitting on it. “But, as I was saying, tho scenery down thoro is just lice the rest of nature. It doesn’t have the sportive Kansas cyclono to shift it around twice in o while or so, but just stays put and doesn’t seem to care, oither. - Ennui doesn’t scem to have gotten into that markot. Everybody secms satis- fled—that is, everybody who is indigenous. 1t is said that an enterprising easterner once shipped in quite a lot of ennui, hoping to get tho natives to indulge in it, get dissatisfied and sel a move on, but for some reason the plan idn't work. 'Treckon everybody wondered what he should want to_be discontented for; it's thotr way, and a gdod o, oo, maybo, tending to eupepsy and & green old age. “‘When I went down there we had dinner at Deming. Deming is a place that dropped down from nowhere and liton tho dreary desert, %0 that people might get off the trains and get something to eat. It has become quite a gor- geousty-painted and self-assertive little town, and every man who lives in Deming seems to want you to know it, which isa good thing for the téwn. All the same, I think there is a good deal of forced enthus- iasm about those Deming chaps; I really don’t seo how one can put his whole heart into shouting for a little collection of houses scattered around in the sand at a place where there is nothing, apparently, to do, but to come over to the station and see the trains come and go. Not that I saw many people loafing around the depot, but from a casual glance one wonders what other occu- pation they can have. Resomble the Finger of Fate, “Deming is right on tho lovel plain, but near the foothills. There are twoor three foothills within a fow miles of Poming that look lonesome; thoy stiok up out of tho lovel plain like the finger of fato, sovoral hundred feet high, and seem to feel thelr position keeuly, No one ever goes to see them. “Off to_the right, quite s ploce. is Coolc's peak, which is quite peaked and altitudi- nous. There are soveral well-paying silver munes 1n its vicinity. +Oh, yes, I went to Silver City. That's oneof the'places I started for. Well—but suy, I started to tell abous the heat, didu's 11" Never mind, though. D'l tell you what I saw down there, part of it, anyway. “Southenst of Silver City thero 18 a high rock, known as Santa Rita, just below which is a figure called the *Knsoling Nun.' At Santa Rita there are ancient copper mines which are said to have been workel by the carly Spaniards, who seem to have been quite prominent here when Cortez was in the country. Walking Hat Raoks. “The desert between Deming and Silver City looks no more cheerful or inviting than it does between Rincon and Deming. It is all of a plece—somo rovks, somo sand, some cacti and soap-weed, and the unfortunate cattle that have to eke out here an existence which 1s but a mockery at best (and & hollow wockery, t00), look real deli- cate. One can't help thinking what an ex- celient hat rack and fire screen one of the r creatures would make. And yet only a alf dozen years ago, maybe, this desolate waste was a8 good & graziug country as could be desired, and thousands of cattle thrived upon its tall, succulent grasses. From 1886, 1 believe, the cattlemen date their trouble. Since that yesr there has not been onough raln to mention, hence no grass. S0 it appears water, ?udh:iuunl ad- ministered, is quite a good thing sometines. “Down there on the desert, on a hot day, the mirage has the stage all to itself. Inui- ing back frow the train one afternoon at a few forlorn cattle standing some distance from the traci, it seomed, suddenly, as though thoy were in su inundited ccrufield, knee- deop in water; off o the right was a lovely lake, its waves sparkling In the sunlight; farther still was another lake, with a city on its shore, the tall roofs and spircs shining like polished silver. ‘Theso all vanished, and the whole plain seemed covered with water, which appeared to be raplaly overtaking the train.

ELGUTTER. Simple Services ut the Residenco—Rev, Dr. Franklin's Address. Almost within the shadow of the home where she was reared, and of the stately temple of learning whence she stepped forth seven years ago o bright girl graduato just budding into womanhood. the friends of Nel- lie Elgutter's too short but hapoy lifetime assembled yesterday afternoon to pay the last tributes to the memory of a loved one gone before. Thoe sorvices were held at the residence of the deceased at T'wenticth and St. Mary's avenue. School mates of her girihood, later friends of her mature womanhood, and friends of the family whoso acquaintance dated back to the days when friendship meant more than an empty word, gathered there in silont sympathy to shed sorrow’s tears. In the front parlor of the enshrouded home rested the casket wherein lay the re- maius beneath a wreath of flowers. At the head stood o large column of white roses and carnations, surmountod by white dove with outstretched pinions, ping a tiny white rosebud on a fragile stem, while mantels and fireplaces were almost hidden from sight behind mounds and pillows of floral gems and unbunched flowers, mutely eloquent bxpressions of a general and sin- cero griof. It was impossible for all to find room within the = entrance, and many stood vatiently without until the short services at. the home were concluded. Rov. Dr., Frank- lin officiated, reading the Psalm XC, after which a short, but fervent and tender prayer was offered. To the many sorrowing ones he extended sympathy and consolution in these words: “Mourning friends, o sad and sacred duty has called us here together this afternoon. ‘We have assembled in this house of mourn- ing to pay the last sad tribute of vespect and love to the memory of one who was dear to many hearts. This young wife and mother just entor- g into the bloom of noblest womanhood, called from those she loved and those who Joved her, to that mysterious realm where time lapses into eternity and where death and separation are unknown. It is always sad, my friends, to stand at the cofin of 4 dear one, or at the open grave to bid the last farewell to one we love, but it is doubly sad to do >0 when the one called home had scarcely yet begun to live, and for whom the sweots of life were all in store. And there- fore, friends who stand about this coffin that enshrines the mortal remains of Mrs. Nellio Elgutter, I mourn and grieve with you. for I know hotw deep must be the wound that has been inflicted on you.- But deep as 1s the wound ; hard to bear as/is the blow, is there nobalm to heal your wounded hearts? Is there no solace to dry-the tears that will not be restrained? We know that in an hour likke this reason is cold and vhilosophy is cheerless to the broken heart; we know that words fall with the dujl thud of emptiness upon the spirit filled with grief, and religion itself scarce penetrates - the dark cloak of sadness that encircles you. - But when the first most bitter hour is past, we feel that our words will come back to you with force redoubled to comfort and to solace you, and therefore, in the very face of grief, we speak. Death, it seems, Las robbed you of the fairest gem in all the jewel casket of your life; of a daughter, faithful and affec- Tionate; a wife, sympathetic, loving, tender hearted and forgiving—born as it seems to die, even as the flower that bloom- eth in the morning is dead and faded with the evening- light. But she who lies before us is nog dead. She lives in that life which to bring into existence she has sacrificed her own. She has met death at the altar of love, at tho altar of duty, at the altar of noblest motherhood. In the child that she has borne must be your con- solation, thou husband so bereaved. Let it become the link that shall bind you in un- dying love to the memory of her whom today we bid to rest, and in that child must be your solace, too, you mourning parents, brothers, sisters, for in that child your dear one lives, and with God’s blessing shall live on to honorable womanhood, hank God that in the very hour he has afflicted you he has granted = balm unto your blceding hearts. Thank Him that the one you mourn was such a noble girl, such a true worman, such a faithful and 8elf sacrificing wife and daughter, and pray to Him for courage to bear the blow that He has in- flicted, for He is the God that smiteth but bindeth up again. Of her, for whom the hour of parting has arrived, we shall say naught. Her many noble qualities, her kindliness of spirit, her loveliness of disposi- tion, her true womanly modesty, all speak more eloquently than could Ior any other man. To her returning soul, pure as it came from the hands of its Maker,we say one last, one sad farewell, and 1n the words of the sage of old, ‘Give her of the fruits of her own hands, and let her own works praiso in the gates.” Amen.” Once more the friends were allowed to look upon the familiar face, then the precious burden was raised and borne to the waiting hearse. The pall bearers were Messrs. C. N. Powell, Rey. Dr. J, T. Dury Max Meyer, W. L. M:Cague, Albert Cahn, Charles McConnell, Martin Cahn and George Pundt, To Pleasant Hill cemetery the cor- tege drow its way, and there, after therend- ing of a meditation and the mourners’ bene- diction, on_the gently rolling hilltop that overlooks both city and valley, and where tho sur. last lingers ere dipping below the western horizon, the beloved form was tel derly consigned to the bosom of that uni- versal mother of us all. The Board of Educ: on assembled yester- day safternoon to receive & communication from the president anuouncing the decease of Mrs. Charles S. Elgutter, the wife of a member of the beard.

UESDAY, JULY 4, 1893 [ COVERNOR GRANT ON SILVER Situation is Not so, Entirely Hopoeless as Has Been Given Out, VIEWS OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE SMELTER Will Not Reduce Forces for & Month Under Any Clreumstancos—Effect of India Action on the Silver Question— Remonetization Certaln, Governor J. B. Grant of Colorado, president of the great company that oper- s the smelting and rofining works poth in this city and Denver, came in from his home in the latter city Sunday evening for a con- forence with his business associates relative to the silver situation. To a representative of Tie B who found him at the Millard yesterday merning, Mr. Grant said that tho compan 7 would not dis- charge a man for the purpose of re- ducing forces either in this cily or Deuver for the next month at loast, even if affairs should take the most unfavorable turn, as there was enough ore in sight 1o keep both plants in full oper- ation for thirty days withous buying an- other pound. No more silver ore will be purchased until the situation resolves itself into something more definite than it is at present, though other ores will find a ready market s before. Mr. Grant admitted that at presont things looked dark for the mining interests and said that everything pointed to the speedy repeal of tho Sherman law. He did not know what would be done by westorn interosts to prevent it, oxcept by tho senators and representatives of the mining states, though there had been a littlo talk of big moetings to present peti- tious and protest When asked to express his views as to the best und surest way of obtaining relief, he replied: “My plan would be free coinage, limited to the American product, in a ratio of twenty or twenty-two and a_half to one. It has been nbout twenty-five for tha past six ths, and that ha: on o little too high. re will be no increase in the production at 80 conts, while at 00 cents thero would be a tremendous falling offt. A great many of the mines would not pay to work at that figure, 1 expect to see a better price for lead than for some time past, as there has boen a great deal of what might be called incidental lead produced from mixed ores that were worked for silver. The lead in such cases would be produced even if the price was as 10w as a quarter of a cent a_pound, but now that the smelting of such ores will bo stopped, vhere will be a falling off of this in- cidental lead product and a conscquent stiffening of price. The stoppage of free coinage by India and the attendant dropping out of the very bottom of the silver market vas a paralyzer to the silver men. ars the great sink- hole into which both gold and silver have poured, never to be seen or heard of again, and it seems to me that this fact will sooner or later result in the remonetization of si That country will continue to raise gr cotton, tea and opium, and th 58 of its exports over its imports will have to be represented in something or other that will flow in thero.
