IS IT MIKE?

The Wife and Daughter of Mike Lane Swear the Picture is That of Hart aud not Lane.

The depositions in tho caso of Mike Lane alias Win. Hart, upon whose $100,000 property in Whatcom, Wash., a counter oluim is filed, is still going on. The strange part of it is that Mrs. Lane aud her daughter havo both sworn that the photograph which is on exhibition in no wise resemblos Lane, but is a good likeness of a certain Wm. M. Hart, who married Mrs. Lane's sister. They are very positive in their affidavits and if they should., hold good Lane's property would hold good for htm. Lane, himself, has entirely disappeared having deeded his property to Annie Woods who is now posing as the wife of Wm. M. Hart and to his three sons by his real wife who are now in Whatoom and the defendants in the oounter claim suit brought by one Mioliael Garvin. Mr. Bruner represents the defense aud has taken a number of depositions to establish the faot that there is such a person as Hart and that the photograph is that of him and not of Lane.

Mr. Coppage, who represents the plaintiff, says ho can readily establish the identity of Lane and Hart. Ho says Mrs. Lane is influenced in her affidavit by tho faot that her sous are defendants in the suit, and Bhe believes their suocess would be of advantage to her. She stated in her affidavit before Bruner that she did not know why Laue left or where he wont, but iu her affidavit for divorce several years ago she swore that he went wost with Anuie Woods. Judge Thomas identified postively the pioture of the alleged Mrs. Hart as that of thiB Auuie Woods for whom he procured a divoroe before she fled with Lane, and also tostifled that Lane paid for this divorce. Ho teati fled that the photograph was a striking resemblanoe to Lane. Judge Snyder, Judge Harney, A. F. Ramsey, Gen. M. D. Manson and others have sworn that the picture is a splendid liknoss of Lane. Mr. Coppage states that the oounter claim to the Lane-Hart property which was filed because it was entered uuder an assumod name in violation of tile United States law, is sure to hold good.

Hot Settled Yet-

Tho Hub and Spoke Faotory deal has not yet boon effected, but the arrangements are about all made and it is a sure go. The contract will be mado in the near future, but just when ia not settled. A sum of money yet remains to be raised and the soliciting committee will do some further work. The site has not been selected, although a number of plats hive been viewed. Tho ground offered by Mr. Alfrey will probably not be taken, although offered at so low a rate, it is considered to .be too difficult of aooess.

music Hall Next Month-

There has been but few shows at Musio Hall this month, as the management has refused to book any poor attractions. A number of splendid entertainments are booked for February, however, and not a poor one on the list. We will have the "Faust Opera Company," on the 2nd, "United States Mail" on the 9th, "Faust up to Date." on the lltli, "The Irisli Hearts," on the 19th and "The Boy Tramp," on the 25th. The police have guaranteed to keep order ia the fature aqd swear tkat the hoodlums shall be suppressed.

1'Emerson-"

Dr. R. Cunningham read the paper before the Ouiatenon Club last evening, his subjeot being "Emersou." The oooasion was graoed with the presence of ladies, whioh with the oharming paper made it a most delightful even, ing. Mr. Cunningham was one. hour and ten minutes in reading and so interested were his listeners that the time did not seem half so long. The current topic introduced by Dr. Taylor was that of the Beihring Sea question.

CLEVER DETECTIVE WORE.

Charles E- Davis, of this City, Makos a Hit In the Character of "Old SleuthThis afternoon, deputy sheriff Oharlos E. Davis, returned from Topeka, Kansas, whore ho succeeded in putting behind the bars a dangerous criminal, and also Buooeedod in capturing a large money reward offered by the Governor of Kansas. Tho man ho ran down was Wm. E. Alexander and had boen hu nted all over several states by the Kansas authorities since last August.

Wm. Alexander is a son of George Alexander, late of Boston Store, .this oounty, and now of Kansas. Wm. Alexander, it will be remembered," served a term in the penitentiary for stealing a horse and buggy during the fair here. He was reported during this time to have confessed the killing of a man at the Black Hills and of placing his body on the track where it was mu tilated by the oarv If there was any. tiling in this confession it was never followed up and after serving his term for grand larceny he went to his family in Shawnee county, Kansas. Last August he again made ..himself liable to the law by a most heinous crime. He and his brothers, Wallace and Otis, committed a dastardly outrage upon a 1- year old girl. Wallaoe reoeived a term of 2j years in the penitentiary and Otis being a mere boy escaped with a year in the reformatory. William was arrested at his homo by three officers, and asked permission to stop into the next room to bid his wife good-bye and get his coat. The request granted, he slipped through a side door and escaped. He fled through Kansas under the s^lias of Earnest Gray. In Missouri as ho journeyed eastward he was Charles Lily and in Indiana and Illinois his name was Wm. Edwards. He was in this county some months ago but his visit was a fleeting one, and Mr. Davis who had tr.oed him sinoe he strcok Missouri, on his way eastward fails to apprehend him so wary was he. After his fly visit here he started West again over muoh the same route he had oome his aliases being as before. So great was his preoautiou and shrewdness that the trail he left was always several weeks before it oould be gained and it was less than a fortnight ago that Charley Davis finally looated him in Mound Oity, Kansas, in tho oounty adjoining that in which his crime had been committed. lie was engaged in hauling wood for a widow and was using tho name of Earnest Gray. The big job which Mr. Davis had undertaken iu traoiug his man was finally finishe and several days sinoe he left for bleeding Kansas. He had no difficulty iu finding his bird and securing the proper papers in oompany with an officer arrested Alexander last Thursday. When arrested Alexander looked at Davis keenly and said: "So you are the man that has been shadowing me all over the country, are yont

Give me your hand. I'm glad I'm caught as I'm siok of roaming everywhere without home or friends. I knew you would get me sometime."

Alexander was at once taken to Topeka and plaoetZ in jail yesterday to await his trial. Too muoh credit oannot be given to Mr. Davis for following up a trail that the Kansas offioer despaired of. The work was chiefly done by mail, and the capture of the man is the neatest compliment that oan be paid to Mr. Dayis' skill, even neater than the 8300 money reward he brought home in his \iket.

DI0KER80N TAKEN DP.

Ed Gory Wants to Stand Before Crawfordsville Oldest Prige FighterIn the Crawfordsville Journal and Indianapolis News of Wednesday there appeared a challenge from Mr. Howard DickersoB,of Crawfordsville, to fight any heavy weight in Indiana for a purse of 8800 and the Hornet is authorized by Mr. Ed Cory to aooept the challenge, providing that the fight oan oome off within 90 days after his fight with Tim Fell whioh takes plaoe Thursday, Feb. 5th. He also extends a challenge to any heavy weight in Indiana for a purse to be agreed upon to fight to a finish, he preferring to meet Sam Grant, of Lafayette, or Lewis Carter, of Indianapolis. Mr. Cory means business and intends to stand by what he says, and if any heavy weight in Indiana desires to have the honors of ohampion of this State he will first have to best him. Newspaper talk is no longer needed ane anyone desirous of meeting that gentleman oan meet him, sign articles and decide upon the stakes to be fought for, at any time thereby deciding who is entitled to tho olaim of being the best man. Call on or address at present, Ed Corey, Wayn etown, Indiana.—Waynetown Hornet.

Novel Colonization ConceAtiion, A somewhat novel colonization scheme is in the hands of Gen. Herman Sturm. The concession provides that Mr. Sturm shall establish four colonies in different parts of the country, the government obliging itself to sell him for the purpose 250,600 hectares of surveyed public tond in the states of Durnngo, Coahuila, Chihuahua, Ouxaca and Miuhoocun. The first colony, consisting of 200 persons of either sex, must be established within three years from the date of the promulgation of the concession. The colonists are to be selwited preferably froiu among the residents of Mexican descent in the American states of California and Colorado, and the territories of New Mexico and Arizona.

The colonists will engage in stock raising (to which end the fn*e iiniortation of limited number of head of stock for breeding purposes will be allowed), in tho manufacture of barrels and coopers' goods generally, of beer, spirits and perfumery, lint the most imjortant feature of the scheme is tho erection of a paier mill in the federal district and the agreement of the concessionaire to sell the paper manufactured there at a maximum price of $3.50 for common triple printing paper, $8.60 for suiK-rior printing pa]xr suitable for books, and $10 for glazed paper. Another feature is the project for putting up a vegetable, fruit and fish canning establishment.—Mexican Financier.

Milliliter IMKKFtt apil ltalaknua. Mr. Daggett boro himself in his official residence at Hawaii as if it had been his editorial room in Virginia City. 1 saw Mr. Daggett the other day. Ho hud come down from his ranch at Vacavillo to visit his former royal chum. Agricultural life a0Tees with the ex-jourual-ist and diplomats. He used to be fat. but now he looks like a pugilist in training. "Everybody," he said, "seems to be shocked at my leanness, just as you are. Judge Mesick was quite scared this morning. 'Daggett,' says lie, 'it isn't natural for you to bo without jowls and a pauucli. It ain't exercise, but disease that's the matter with you. See a doctor. You're dying.' 'Dying,' says I, Tni as strong as an ox. Let mo show you. Give mo something to raise—an anvil or anything,' and I bared my arm. 'Just let me raise something for you.' 'All right,' says Mesiek. 'go out and see if you can raise me $5,000.'" 1 am told that when Mr. Daggett sent in his card to King Kalakaua at the Palace hotel, hi6 majesty turned to Lord Chamberlain McFarlane, and said with a gesture of high command: "Let him be admitted, and the drawbridge raised. Drop also the portcullis. We iire at home to none else today."—

In this unknown land bear, elk and the noble black tailed deer exist in al most countless numbers, and iu all but jierfect fearlessness of man, and here, from the great difficulty of access to their domain, the enterprising sportsman may find them ages heuoe. Until the summer jnst passed no huuter's, prospector's or explorer's rifle had e\ er awakened the echoes of their bills. This I hunter's paradise is the peninsula lying west of Pnget sound, and embraces all the territory west from the sound to the

Pacific ocean, aud tho Straits of San Juan de Fnca south to the northern line of Chehnlisli county, comprising the en tire counties of Clallam and Jefferson, and is locally known as the "Olympic range country." A glance at a map wiS best inform the reader of the extent of this territory, where, until last summer, the noblest game on the continent has lived in undisturbed peace.—Taooma (Wash.) Letter.

CHII Such LLIITIG* Be?

There is sucli a thing ascarrying economy even beyond tho borders of parsimony. Here is a case we vouch for as actually occurring, we will not say where. Three years ago a certain person purchased as a Christmas gift for his 2-vear-old daughter a little chair, painted red. In 1889 he had the chair painted bluo and gave it to her as a brand new Christinas gift. Last year he had the same chair gilded, and worked it off again as a Christmas gift on his innocent and helpless child. Iu a very poor household such' an incident would be pathetic. But this father is by no means a poor man.—Buffalo Commercial.

Orange* iu SUB Bernardino. There are upward of 5,000,000 orauge trees in seed bed in this couuty. This is over three times the number set out in orchard form in the county. But each year the demand for trees increases. At the present ratio of increase two years from now 1,000,000 will be planted annually in this county alone. As many trees are shipped into San Diego and other counties, and if all the trees now in seed bed should mature to a condition for planting, there will be but little danger of an overstock. But many of these trees will be killed by frost and from neglect und other causes.—San Bernardino (CaL) Timoa.

A Curioua Accident.

Mis. Eliza Foster, 58 years, of this city, fractured a rib Wednesday afternoon while trying ou a jwiir of boots at a shoe store.
