About four years ago Mrs. Hohror demanded
that tho city pay her for tho portion of
her property which had boon used as a con
tlnunncti of Third street nt Sixteenth

had the property fenced off, rhus closing tho
streot
nnd lost. It being hold that tho Btreet nt
this point, when tho adjoining property wus
platted had never been deeded to tho city.
The city took an appeal, but the supremo
court ruled In favor of Mrs. Hohror. Then
tho city commenced condemnation proceed
ings nnd the appraisers fixed the valuo of
tho property belonging to-Mm. Itohrer nt
J'.'.OOO and tho strip belonging to tno vn
earnings. Against these objections it was
stated that thcro was n bill pending making
tho offlco of the court reporters salaried ono
nt $1,500 per annum. Thcro was some ob
jection also raised to tho proposed transfer
