Tano, a Japanese section laborer, has the appearance of a badly bruised man. The preliminary examination of Tano on a charge of assault with intent to commit murder was held before- Justice of the Peace Thomas Fits Gerald yesterday afternoon. The Japanese, with his bead swath ed in bandages, and Roland, the white man, with his neck similarly tied up. were in'the court room. The complaining witness and another white man were the only witnesses called. According to Roland, who is fore man of the section at Cayuse station, he had trouble with Tano last week owing to the manner in which the Japanese was tamping ties. New Year's eve he went down to the bunk house of his men and was invited to drink with them He took one or two glasses of whisky, but declined more and started back to his house. "Tano followed me." said the fore man In his rich Irish brogue, "and without warning struck me in the back of the neck with a pocket knife. exclaiming with an oath that he was going to kill ma. I ran to my house and he followed. I seized an axe. and with the flat side struck him several blows upon the head, knocking him j down at last. I didnt hit the man as hard as I could.Vas I didn't want to kill him." S. Anderson, another section fore man, parted the two men. He did not see the beginning of the fight. Col. J. H. Raley. who represented the defendant, attempted to prove that the blow with the pocket knife might have been struck after the Japanese was on the ground with the Irishman bending over him. Dr. W. G. Cole, who attended the wounded foreman, admitted that the blow might have been struck when the defendant was lying on his back, but he said the weapon that caused the wound went straight in instead of downward. The Justice held the defendant to await the action of the state circuit court, and fixed his bonds at $500. Tano is in Jail. STING FOK A "FIND." Boys WIhi Found 870UO Are Fighting for It in tlie Courts. What Is popularly known through out Jackson county as the "tin-can" case, on trial before the circuit court here, suys the Medford Times, has re sulted, in disagreement by the Jury.

O'Xell to clean out a chickenhouse on the premises of the latter, and in pur suing the work the boys unearthed a can of gold. They disclosed their find to the owners of the premises, who took possession of it.

They brought suit for Its recovery, alleging that the half-gallon fruit can contained $7000. The case occupied the attention of the circuit court all last week.

With a promptness and Intelligence well nigh human a big black horse saved the life of a child In Omaha a day or so ago. and was rewarded for his noble act with the cheers of a large crowd of people. Little 5-year-old Ruth O'Hura. car rying a doll In her arms, slipped and fell off the curbstone on Farnam street, alighting under the feet of the horse. The child's mother, realizing the erilous position Into which the little one had fallen, became hysteri cal and excitedly culled to passersby to rescue her, but before anybody could respond to the appeal the horse moved back and away from the child, being careful not to step upon her as he did so, and then putting his head down, grasped her skirts firmly with his teeth, lifted her clear off the pavement and set her gently upon the curb, stepping back thereupon and looking at her with evident satisfac tion. The street was crowded with Christmas Bhoppers and a great cheer went up from those who saw the home rcwue the child from her peril.
