"  A Game  of Lacrosse Which  Did Not  Result in 'a Tie, but Saw  Some'Rough Play.  f  The Medicine Hat lacrosse team pla**-  cd tag without tho Nelson boys on Saturday in a same which  was supposed  to be the breaking of a Lie iii'a lacrosse  match.   From the spectators' standpoint  it can hardly bo said to have boen satisfactory.    The first 10 minutes of the  match wore good, and although the Nelson boys did not manage to score they  put up a very creditable sample of ia-  erosse, which, next to winning lacrosse,  is what tho average spectator wants tu  see.  'After  the  first 30  minutes,  however, it was very evident that the local  boys  were not  in  shape.    In  the  first  place it must honestly 'be said' that law  of  them  were   in   condition,   and   they  wore-not equal to the strain of the two  games so close upon each other.   Their  chief trouble was that they could  not  keep   up   th'e   pace.     Their   defeat   on  Saturday  was  most   inglorious,  but   it  ���<will serve a good purpose  if it brings  the   Nelson   boys   to   realize   that   the.-  must get out and  practice in order tc  put up lacrosse which the grand stand  will pay for.    It was manifest that the  visitors had a well balanced team, and  that every man  on it was in shape tc  play lacrosse   W. Peard was unable tc  play in Saturday's game.    His absence  was noticed,  but it need -not be taken  io mean that there was anything wroiu  with  the game  which  Hatcher put  lint  point.    Their  homo  team  was  als*  fnrther strengthened by the presence of  White of the Grand  Forks  team,  who  is now on his way to the Hat as a fix-  lure.    He played a star home game oi*.  Saturday, although every member of the  visitors'   team   may   be- said   to   have  played   well.    They showed "thomsolve.  to be good stick handlers, catching and  pissing  remarkably  well,   and  quicklj'  Wiien It was required;   nnd throughout-  the .entire game they used'-thouvheadb/  The ��chiliuies ' ir-nde" on "the'' N*lson  team  did not strengthen  ic any.    The  ell'ccis   of  the  former   game   made  the  local team like an outfit of cripples, and  early  in  the  play they  began  to  tire,  so much so in fact that, the spectator*  lost all interest in the game.   The Medicine  Hat manager  had* evidently sized  up the strong points of the Nelson team  and took good care throughout the game  to keep Nelson's strong players closely  checked,  a  matter  of   detail   which   in  spite of previous warnings the Nelson  boys utterly disregarded, attempting tc  do too much work villi the ball instead  of covering their checks.  From Saturday's play it must be apparent that there are at least three va  c;*.ucies en the Nelson team for rcci  who can play lacrosse There was mani  fest inability on the'part of the Nelso:  outside and inside home. In fact ih<  team would have been better off play  ing two men short, as it was only by ;  fluke that any hope of scoring could li*  -entertained.���Tlio-ball-was-worked dowi-  the field often enough, but the way ii  which it was lost by the two honv  players was enough to discourage the  most energetic. Nelson's weakness a  this end of the field was not more noticeable than its weakness between the  ilags. The most noticeable.thing in Lhi.  connection was Vanstone's lack of judgment. Naturally he made several goot  stops, but he also showed a very bac  tendency to fish in all the high shol*  he could reach, and upon two or three  occasions of this kind enabled the us '  itors to secure a goal which otherwis;  would not have been possible  Disastrous as the game resulted, how  ever, it' is not "unlikely that good wil  result from .'it if the, ^eison boys arc '  ��� capable of profiting by experience.

Ford, co-respondent of the New York Tribune,  says:    A British army of 200,000 men  is still employed in waiting and watching  for a  force  of  Boers, ranging  between 2000  and  10,000 .men.    The last  incident officially reported is the burning of a railway station 50 miles from  Johannesburg   on   the   Natal   railway,  with a final repulse of the raiders.    It  was  even more insignificant than the  wrecking of a train on the Rietersbu.'g  line.   The largest Boer force which has  been raiding or skirmishing during recent weeks  does not exceed 400  men.  The captures of stock and supplies are  constantly  reported  by  general  Kitchener and the Boers are surrendering by  scores or hundreds every week.    It is  evident that the Boer guerrilla warfare  becomes  month   by  month  less  vexatious   and   that  general   Kitchener;"'is  gradually wearing down by proce'ss'-'of  attrition   the   Dutch   resources-*'for  resistance, marvelously efficient as these  have proved.   The bands of raiders have  been reduced in strength and their capacity for inflicting injury has been impaired.  .Thedoss of horses would be an  obstacle  to   a   continuance   of   guerilla  warfare if the fighting Boer when re-  duced to hard straits were not enabled  to conceal his gun and masquerade as  a refugee farmer.   The difficulty of ending the war has been increased by the  readiness with which the Boers without  uniforms   have   been  iransf&rmed   into  neutrals and British sympathizers at a-  moment's notice and also by the systematic   arrangements ifor   feeding   and  protecting   the   women   and   children.  There is  no  longer  any  talk  of reinforcing    the    British    army.    General  Kitchener does not ask for more troops  but is contented with the situation aiivl  with the steady progress made in clear-  ingythe-'country. ��� - -  ���_  "���    *      '     "    "  VON HOHENLOHE'3 DEATPI. !  The death of prince von Hohenlohe  was not unexpected in diplomatic circles, as his health was known to be  fatally impaired when he was succeeded  in office by count -von Buelow. He was  identified as chancellor with the German colonial policy and with tne development of naval resources and was  an experienced diplomat rather than a  statesman of height and creative order.  IMPLitlAL FEDERATION.  The old whist players' rule, when in  doubt play trumps, applies to the great  game of politics, but few English statesmen know instinctively what is the  trump card., Mr. Chambei lain does, for  he is constantly bringing in the supreme  issue of heartier co-operation and closer  alliance between the mother countr*-  and the groups of self-governing colonies througiiout the empire. He is responsible for the proposed change of  title for the sovereign, so as to include  -every-section-of-the-worldwide-empirer  and he is conferring cautiously with the  Canadian ministers now in London and  seeking to induce them to take the initiative in suggesting a plan by whicli  the colonies can have representation in  an imperial council of some kind. Possibly he counts himself too persistently  in the backgiound, and says too much  about the risks of premature action.  The colonies cannot be dragged into an  imperial council, and the initiative must  come from them and inevitably l'rjiu  Canada, but constructive statesmanship  is needed at the center and Mr. Chamberlain, while a great debater and administrator, has not yet made it clear  that he has genius of the creative order. The Canadian ministers are not  yet convinced that the time has come  for making arrangements for a' closer  union with the mother state. They have  taken the cue from Mr. Chamberlain and  repeat the warning tnat nothing must  be done prematurely and that Canada  is satisfied with her present relations  to the imperial government. "Is imperial federation an impossible' problem,  like squaring the cm-ic'.'" was.the question .which I put yesterday to one of  the Canadian ministers who had been  contending that well enough should be  let alone. "No," he answered promptly,  "it is not an impossible problem. It is  one .that, can be worked out deliberately in the course of time, but. not  prematurely." The Canadian ministers  are . impressed with the fact that  Sir. Wilfred Laurier on two occasions  has taken the initiative in proposing  practical measures in the direction of  imperial federation on both the legislative and the business side and that his  suggestion has been .met in a halfhearted way. Apart from Mr. Chamberlain, no member of the ministry  seems to know what card to play. Sir  Michael Hicks-Beach has financed the  war without reference to the business  and Industry interests of the colonic*.'  and' Mr. Broderick has lost sight of  Canada, Australia .and New Zealand in  attempting to reorganize the army in a  skeleton scheme of six corps on paper,  without flesh and blood recruits in barracks. Lord Selbourne has been equally  negligent in proposing a method for  strengthening the fleet without regard  for the practical requirements of imperial defense. His eyes are fixed upon  the Mediterranean as though there were  Von Hohenloe's Death.  BERLIN, July 6.���Prince von Hoheu-  loe, formerly German imperial chancellor,   died  at  Ragatz,  Switzerland,  last  evening.  Prince von Hohenloe'**  death  was  generally unexpected here,  as he  left Berlin several, weeks ago apparently in good health,'.'although his increasing weakness was' evident. The prince  arrived at Ragatz-^extremely-exhausteelf/  His dsath is attributed to the weakness,  ot old age. The arrangements for the  transportation of the body to Germany  and for the obsequies aro not yet definitely determined f upon,  but it is expected the remainsj will be conveyed to  the Hohenloe ancestral home at Schil-  lingsfuerst, Bavaria, where the family  vault is situated and where the bod*y of  prince von Hohenloe's wife is-interred.  It  is  reported  chancellor von  Buelow  will break his seaside rest and attend  the funeral. Although emperor William  has fixed his departure for his trip to  Norway for Monday next, it is deemed  likely, that his majesty will once more  postpone the   date  of  his' starting in  order to enable him to attend the obsequies.   Owing   to 'emperor   William's  relationship 'to   prince   von   Hohenloe,  his  majesty  always'- called  the  prince  "Uncle" Chl'odwig." ;It  is   not  believed  here that the body of prince von Hohenloe will be'brought to i-ierlin before being taken to Schillihgsfuerst The officials of the United States embassy informed the* correspondent of the Associated Press that the death of the chancellor  was   much  regretted  because  of  his uniform friendliness towards Americans   and   American   interests.   Prince  von Hohenloe's attitude during his chancellorship was alway3 fair and4concilli-  atory   in  regard   to   German-American  relations.  Extra  editions of  the newspapers  in  Berlin  this morning tell  of  prince Hohenloe's death.  TRACKMEN  HAVE   GAINED   LITTLE ADVANTAGE.  Funds Said to Be Short and No Benefits Are Being Paid.  Oeneral Notes.  MUSICIANS WILL ORGANIZE  HOPE TO HAVE  THE BEST BAND  IN'THE PROVINCE.  Will Require All Members-to Pass*an  Examination im Music Before  They Become Members.  Arrangements are now being perfected  by which it is hoped that Nelson will  secure a band anel orchestra second to  none in this province. This very laudable project is bought to be attained  by the organization of all the capable  musicians in the city into one orchestra and band. By this means it is hoped  to overcome all the rate cutting and  bickerings, which for the past year have  been the most prominent features of  Nelson's musical organizations, and  should result in the organization of a  band of twenty-five pieces, which will  -be~a credit-lo-flie-city.   To this end T. A. Mills, H. R. Wambold, D. Wambold. S. L. Otis, J. P. Pollard, C. Levis, A. Perrier, and .1. McMillan (Slocan)'have applied for a charter from the American Federation of  Musicians, aud the local organization  will be known as the Nelson Musical  Protective Union, No. 94. A preliminary  meeting has been held and provisional  officers elected pending the receipt ot  the charter, when there are some twelve  or fifteen capable musicians whose  names will also be added, so that the  new organization will' have a good  strong start. Tho provisional officers  who will serve pending the arrival of  the charter are: T. A. Mills, presidnt;  J. B. Pollard, corresponding secretary;  H. R. Wambold, treasurer; L. S. Otis,  vice-president; and C. Levis, scrgeant-  at-arms.  Once this organization is perfected  admission will only be by musical examination. For the present the three  first mentioned provisional officers will  constitute an examining board, but'the  provisional examiners do not contemplate submitting to an examination several of the local musicians of admitted  musical attainments, the examinations  in the main being intended as a barrier  to those who have little inclination as  well as small attainments in the musical  line.  The men who are pushing the musical union say that they have plenty of  good material available for both a band  and an orchestra, but that what is  needed is an effective means of securing  for one promising musical organization  such financial assistance as is offering,  instead of having it frittered away to  no purpose among two or three different  musical organizations. As soon as the  desired charter is secured notice of tho  same will be given, and the co-operation  of the citizens as a whole will be sought  in the effort to build up in Nelson a  band which will be to it what the 13th  regimental band is to the city of Hamilton.

MONTREAL, July 7.���The third week  of the strike of the C. P. R. trackmen  has ended with results very much in  "favor of the company.    The   Ontario,  Eastern   and   Atlantic   divisions   have  practically a full force of trackmen at  work with flying gangs here and there.  On   the   other   divisions   the   company  made   considerable   gains   during   the  last week.    The Brotherhood rules do  not permit of any calls on the funds of  the union during the first two weeks  of a strike, as 95 per cent of all strikes-  are settled within that time, but after  that   the  strike   allowance   is   usually  allowed.   The third week up, several ��'.��-  1/lications   for   strike  pay   were   made  Saturday ��� afternoon   by   striking   foremen, but without results.    It was given  out before  the  strike  began  that  the  Trackmen's  Association  in  the  United  States had a reserve fund  of $350,000,  which would be available for the sinkers  on the C.  P. R���  but in reply to  the applications for strike pay Mr. Wilson and the Montreal committee either  return evasive answers or make no answer at all.    The members of the cbm-  mittee are drawing $5 a  day and  Mr.  Wilson  has  a   comfortable salary, ��� but  the actual strikers, especially those with  families, think it hard that they should  get nothing, and many, if not most of  them, feel that it would have been better  if they had  accepted  the  $100,000  advance the C.

The .strike-on   the  Maine Central has been called off, although, the strikers get absolutely nothing, beyond the advance which the management put into effect before the strike  was ordered." and  Mr. Wilson is being  urged   on  all   sides   to   terminate 'the  strike on the Canadian Pacific and let  the men*resume work at the advance  made by the  company  before he precipitated the strike., ._-, _.-, -~i.--iss"��*rs;  "PARNHAM, Quebec, July 7.���Several'  trackmen   notified - the   superintendent  here that they desired to return to work  on   Monday   morning.

Mrs. Elizabeth Burr Hamilton, said  to be the last member of the seventh  generation of the Burr family, who died  at Bridgeport, Conn., last week, at tillage of 90, was the fifth cousin of Aaron  Burr, third vice president of the United  States, who killed Alexander Hamilton,  the lawyer and statesman, in a duel in  1804. Her death recalls the fact that,  though the families of Burr and Hamilton were the most bitter enemies at  the beginning of the century, love found  a way 32 years after the famous duel to  bring the families together again by the  marriage of Elizabeth Burr and Alexander Hamilton jn 1836. >  s Paul du Chaillu, the explorer, writer  and student of peoples, sailed from New  York for Europe last week. He expects to go to Russia as quickly as he  can, and then begin an exhaustive study  of the great Slav Empire and its people.  He will spend three or four years in nis  investigations. He plans to live with  the lowest and the highest, to study  every phase of the nation's life. Upon  landing at Hamburg, Mr. du Chaillu will  go by rail to Kiel, by boat to Copenhagen, then to Malmo, and via Stockholm by boat to St. Petersburg. He  expects to learn the Russian language,  but for the first year he thinks French  will suffice, because he intends to spend  this period among the educated classes.  By that time he will have learned  enough Russian to'get close to the soil  and live with those who furnish the  brawn for the czar's empire/  Despite all rumors to the contrary,  says the Rome "correspondent of the  Pall Mall Gazette, pope Leo is at present in exceptionally - good health and  enjoys his daily drive,and walk in the  open air.

Miss  Mott began teaching when rather yo l.ig.  but at her father's .request resumed her  studies, being graduated from the Oswego, N. Y., Normal School with high  honors, at the head of her class. The  next year was spent as a teacher in the  Howard Mission, in New York City:  but, her health failing, she went to Fond  du Lac, Wisconsin, where she taugnt  for several years in tbe high school.  Meanwhile her father's health had failed, and Miss Mott returned to her home  to be with her parents in their dec'in-  ing years. Some time later Miss Mott  went to Washington and resumed her  duties as a teacher in the public schools  there. For the last four years she has  been principal of the Morse School.  -During���her���residence���in���Washington-  Miss Mott was a member of the Fi.'st  Congregational Church. Soon after  judge Brewer went to Washington he  took a Bible class in this church, and  Miss Mott wasone of his pupils.  V',\  '  I  More Beresfords Wanted.  Censure was r.ot the reward wliich  rear admiral Beresford earned in calling attention to defects in the British  navy. Red tape was staggered at the  slight publicity which lord Charles  Beresford gave to his criticism of the  Mediterranean squadron. It is bettci  that red tape should be offended 111  times of peace than that any portion  of the national armament should be  found defective when tested by the realities of war. There are objections to  open criticism from within the army  and navy, but those objections do not  weigh against the great benefits which  publicity confers. Criticism which never  goes beyond the pigeon holes of the  war office is of no service to the Empire.  Criticism which subjects the war office  to a strong public influence has a value  which no amount of secret counsel can  create. The greatest reforms in armament and tactics have not been the result of private reports. It seems to be  the fate of private reports to- be accepted as a matter of course, and relegated to the dark interior of the department. The methods of administration which abhor the introduction of  new ideas and practices are not effective against the class of criticism which  has been indulged in by lord Charles  Beresford. Britain would have fared  better in the South African war if in  the days of peace there had been men  to call attention to defects In the British army as rear admiral Beresford has  pointed out weaknesses in the British  navy.���Toronto Telegram.

SAN    FRANCISCO,    July    7. ^-iTIiej"  Chronicle  says:     From   sources   thor- 7;  oughly well  informed  and, entitled.' to  credence, comes the statement that the  princess Hartzfeldt has already  begun >  legal   proceedings,   which,   though   not ,  technically a will  contest, amounts ,iu  reality  to an attempt  to set  aside  in  part,   at   least,   the   last   testament " of .  her foster father, Collis P.

(Canadian Ministers in England.  NEW YORK, July 6.���The Canadian  ministers who are in England will probably leave for home about the 1st of  August, says the Tribune's London correspondent. They do not look for a practical solution of the question of an imperial court of appeals at once, but consider that a conference is helpful iu creating an atmosphere for imperial federation. They assert that Canada is satis-  lied with the existing arrangements, and  not ln haste to modify them, hence that  any proposal for creating an imperial  court of appeals will need to be acted  upon with deliberation. The ministers  make up a strong delegation and their  presence in London has strengthened  the good relations between Canada and  the mother country.  Killed His Wife.  NEW YORK, July 7.���Edward Luthey,  43 years old, a bookmaker of the eastern race tracks, who lived with his wife,  Abbey Luthey and four of her children  by a former husband, on East 109th  street, killed his wife by shooting her in  the head this evening after she had  taken refuge in a fire escape to escape  his fury. Then he shot himself. It is  thought Luthey contemplated the deed,  for he sent the children from their  home. Jealousy is supposed to have been  the cause of the tragedy. Luthey is in  a hospital and though the self-inflicted  wound is serious it may not prove fatal.  He says his wife tried to shoot him first.  In the bottom of a strawberry box  opened at Hutchinson, Kan., the other  day, the following note was found written on the smooth wood: "I am Cora  Marsh of Logan, Mo., aged sixteen.  Never been kissed.'  Some years ago when bishop Potter  was traveling in Minnesota, a man approached him on the railway platform  and scanned his features closely. "Excuse me," he said, finally, "but haven't  I seen your picture in the papers?" He  was compelled to confess that he had.  "I thought so," continued the inquisitive one; "may I ask what you are cured,  of?" THE  TRIBUNE.'

Ltd  would only use equally good judgment  and turn down two of the mine managers  that are handling their properties, there  would be peace and prosperity in Kootenay for many a day.  The Lardeau Eagle is after "Tom"  Taylor, member for Revelstoke riding,  with a sharp stick, all because the government is only paying ?2.50 a day to  men woiv.ng on government trails. As  the government has adopted the principle of "fair wages," both by statute  and resolution, there should be no trouble over determining the rate of wages  for men working on roads and trails.  In Nelson riding ��2.50 is the rate of  wages for a nine-hour day and $3 for  a day of 10 hours. If the government  has fixed these figures as the rate lhat  must be paid by contractors who undertake to build wagon roads and trails,  there is no good reason why a less rat?  should be paid when like work is undertaken by the government  There are two mine managers in  Rossland who publish as many manifestoes as do --residential candidates  in a Central American Republic. It  some means could be devised to suppress manager McDonald and manager  Kirby, the country would be safe; but  until they are suppressed, the country  (at least that portion of it which has  Rossland for a.center) will be iu danger.  The Tribune timidly .suggests that both  be given a round trip ticket around the  world.

" Proprietary Company continues to  " work as usual, the large scale on which  " its operations aro conducted making  " it possible to run on a comparatively  '" small margin. The smaller mines,  " however, arc suffering, the price of  '* lead having fallen to a point uncom-  '��� fortably close to their cost of produc-  " tion;- while silver has also been rather  " low in price. Moreover, nearly all the  " mines in the district have worked our  " the oxidized ores which could be  '"treated at comparatively low cost, and  ':' are now dealing with the complex sul-  " pliide ores, whicli require more expensive'plants and treatments. Unless  " there should be an improvement be-  " fore long it is probable that several  '' of the mines will 'close down for a  "time; and some'of them have already  " reduced their working forces."  Once upon a time The, Tribune' stated  that-..Kootenay .could ..walloi* jthe remainder of, the -,.province at. any game  of, sport-, in .which, skill,. ,plucky and  endurance -were factors.

This ^sudden .call to, Europe was ' u.i-  looked for, and it is.-.'.-presumed ..the  count's presence in France is .'necessary  in view of .recent information...received  concerning business - in- which he is  largely interested. The count has. had  only a short stay in Nelson, but.during  this period he made many friends.  There was a large. number of friends  down nt the wharf to wish tho count  bon voyage and a speedy return to Nelson.  The members' of the Nelson Typo-r  graphical Union last evening tendered  D. A.

W..C. block last week, "ice  chief loss incurred in this fire was the  breaking.of the .large plate glass fronts,  and'-it-was held by some of the local  insurance men that tnis was a loss  which should be met by the plate glass  insurance companies. The action of Mr.  Cameron's companies, however, removes  any doubt in such cases in which the  fire occurs in the building in which the  glass  is  broken.  ���  T]ie tramway people must be real  proud of their newspaper organ���the  organ that thoy fatten' with moHt oi.  their'hard-earned earnings. It not only  refused to give them any credit for tho  electric display on Baker street and'  other streets, which was one of the  really good features of the Dominion  Day celebration, but in its Sunday issue it gives the Bonnington Falls Power  Company the credit for turning on these  same lights on Saturday night, when,  as a matter of fact, the lights were  turned on by the tramway people within j  five minutes after a request to do so  was phoned them by mayor Fletcher,  and the request was made as late as  half-past 9 o'clock.  W. J. Wilson of P. Burns & Company  returned from the Boundary on Saturday night, where he ha. been looking  after tiie meat contracts in connection  with the railway work now going on  in the ftepribli*- and. Boundary sections.  The Burns Company litis 'tteeured the  contract for supplying all the meat used  on the Canadian ends of-both the Boundary and East Kootenay branch lines  and may also supply the meat required  on the United States portions of the  roads. On the Boundary road Mr. Wilson says the contractors have sublet  every mile of the work and the sub-contractors in many instances are now reletting the work over again. Jack  Stewart has the 30 miles of the Canadian end of the Boundary road arid will  make his headquarters at Grand Forks.  The headquarters on-this side for the  East Kootenay road will probably-be at  Elko.      *>  SMALL SCORES WERE MADE  At the Ranges on Saturday.  Nelson's maksmen -did not do very  well at the rifle ranges on Saturdry iri  the opening of the Canadian Rille  League matches.' There are several excuses offered for the poor showing made.  The weather Avas distressingly "hot, and  there being no watfcr. on the grounds,  the men rushed thoir'shooting-as'much  as possible in order to'get away. Th^  wind was also, strong and changeable,  and to this may be added the fact of  the reduction in the size of the targets  and tho poor arrangements wliich ob-;  liged.a number of Jthe'nieh to shoot with  rifles witli which ,they'were not accustomed.

"J;   AT-McKIririonT~&~Company.. in   the"  Hampton group; wf-'"claims ori JSpringer  creek, but -there was a lively'tilt between the sherirf^and a Mr;, Taylor over  the attempt made"to sell the McKinnon.  interest.    This'js, one of the,cas-es in,  which.the ambiguity of the Mineral Act.  comes out, inasmuch' as the'same act/,  makes provision for the euring of defects in title through", the lapse of free  miners'   certificates   by  issuing  special/  certificates  arid, also  provides   thut  in  event of such lapse in the case of co-  owner the interest held under the lapsed  certificate   becomes   vested   in   the   co-  owner.   The- lawyer called the sheriff's  attention to the fact that the interest  formerly  held  by  the mcKinnon. com:,  pany was "claimed by N.  F. McNaught.,  by reason of the fact that the McKinnoii  certificate had been allowed to elapse. ,jr  The sheriff replied that he ,was' not';  selling the McNaught interest,  and in"  return   informe,^,.. the.   lawyer   that   he.  would hold  him persorialiy responsible"  on   behalf   of   the   judgment   creditors  for  any  damage  which   might  accrue,  to them through ..his interference with'  the sale,    Being unable to secure any  bids for the' property the sheriff then  withdrew the ��� property ��� from sale pending-further  action.    The  lawyer   then'1  asked the sheriff, to inform'him as to  any future  action  with respect to the  said' property, to which the sheriff .replied that he did not feel called upon  to  give  him  special  notice  any moi*.*  than anyone else, and declined to tell  him by whom he would be advised as  to his future'action In uie riiatt'er.
