He said the only record which he could find order ing the installation of these fixtures eras a request from Judge Slabaugh for a book case, and one from the county clerk for additional book and filing room, which was Introduced ln the board meeting December 13, and that the granting of this request has resulted In tire expenditure of about $4.S00. Charles B. Btromberg was awarded the contract for the construction of a brick culyert on road 170 B, at a cost somewhat In excess of $500, which was about $3M lower than the next lowest bidder. The "cigar bill" of the Paxton & Gal lagher company, which has been before the board for . several months, was paid and this winds up the expense of eitertaln- Ing the Association of County Commis sioners last winter. The cigars were ordered t by one of the Douglas county commissioners and were smoked . by the visitors. Commissioner O'Keeffe and other members were opposed to allowing tho bill, but were willing to pay it out of their private funds.

Mrs. Aurora Hodge, the confessed mur derer of a man named Ryan at Salt Lake City, Is ln the city Jail enroute from Grand Rapids, Mich., to Salt Lake City ln charge SherifT Emory- She refuses to discuss the case Mrs. Hodge Is a frail, slender little wcinan 24 years of age and unusually good looking. She Is dressed In neat plain black. Apparently rhe is not concerned about the outcome of her trial.' The murdei-ed man was found about i month ago near Salt LoJte with a gunshot wound through his head, lying under a wagon In which lie and the womun had gone on a hunting trip. Tho police (it once began a search for Mrs. Hodge, but failed to locate her until' she went iuto the police station at flrand Rai lds anij to the police there confessed her crime. She said that the man had tried to assault her and she shot him. 8heriff Emry. who at that time waa en route to Chicago, was notified through the Omaha police and went to Grand Hapids for her. Speaking of the matter Sheriff Emory said: "There are some phases of the mat ter upon which I do not care to be quoted. The girl wu with Ryan for several days and since I have taken her In charge she tells me that Ryan had taken from her money which she had received from Cali fornia, and that he would not give It back to her. He had abused her frequently, she says, and upon the n.ght he waa killed she decided to take her money and leave him. They had a quarrel and for some reason or other he permitted her to tie his hands. After his hands were tl-d. according to her story, he made an attack upon her and she killed him. She then took from tho body the money he kept from her and, covering the body with a comfort, left for Denlson, la. Ryan was a man weighing ISO pound, while the woman weighed about I'M pounds." .

The city council committee spent yester day morning wrestling with the contest over the selection of an official paper and the question became somewhat complicated while the hear'ng progressed. The World Herald representatives flatly refuted for a second time to produce any books or rec ords showing the mutter of the circulation of the Kvenlng World-Herald other than the statements of the carriers and tho list at this time before the council, with the exception of five routes where there Is a clear distinction between the circulation of the two editions. Attorney Connell for The Bee asked the members of the council present to vote upon the question of causing the World Herald to produce records which It was admitted existed showing tho circulation of the paper for thi months of the present year previous to June 30. Upon a vote Dybttll Zimman and Back voted for tho production of the evidence of circulation, while O'Brien, Huntington, Schroeder and Nicholson voted to suppress the informa tion. . DitTerrnre ia Cost. During the examination of M. G. Vhl it was brought out that during the last year, at the same rate of payment and for the insertion of the same notices, the city paid the World-Herald more than $2,000 for ad vertising, while The Bee received some thing like $1,900 for the work. This was explained by the difference In the width of the columns of the two papers, which mounts to about 4 per cent In actual measurement the column of The Bee be ing that much wider, while, resulting from extra lines by reason of the narrower space, it costs about 6i per cent more to advertise in the World-Herald at the same rate per square. The World-Herald was ordered by the council to produce certain records showing the circulatiun uf tho. paper upon five routes where there is a plain distinction between the two editions of the paper. In making his request to have all of the evidence as to circulation submitted to the council. Attorney Connell for The Bee said that the books of The Bee are open to in spection by any member of the council or a representative of the World-Herald and asked that the aawe fulrness be conceded by others. The council adjourned, until Monday morning. WILL NOT APPOINT RECEIVER J. L. Baker Feraltere rosapaar la Good t'oidlllua and Petlflam Resalt of Litigation.

Regarding the accounts due from the com pany I can state' that J. L.

Fort Leavenworth, has been directed to proceed to Fort Klley, Kan., to compete In the pistol practice at that post, havSng been relieved from par ticipating In the infantry rifle practice at Fort Leavenworth.

Leave of absence to September 1 has been granted all of the student officers at Fort Leavenworth who have passed the exami nations Hnd received diplomas. Thirteen of the officers who failed to pass have been ordered to proceed to their regiments at once. Tho following officers have been ordered to report In uerson to Colonel John P Story, Artillery corps, president of the examining board appointed to meet at Fort Monroe, Vs., to determine thel;- fitness for promotion: Second Lieutenants James D. Walxon. Claudius M. Seaman, Hugh J. B. MoHlgin, Artillery corps, U. 8. A. The following transfers of officers ate announced from the War department at the request of the officers interested: Cap tain Edmund M. Clarke, from the Four teenth company to the First comuaiiv. coast artillery; Cnptain Oscur L. fctruul. from the First company, coast artillery, to the Taenty-elghth field battery, United States artillery. . It appears quite probable that the War department will accept the offers made by farmers in Jefferson and IVingfleld town ships, Riley county. Kansas, for the-use of their lands for the fall maneuvers of the army for each year. Tlie area of land offered comprises su.uOu meres, and the only recompense the farmers ask Is for Inci dental damages, which will be merely nom inal, as the maneuvers will not begin until long after all crops are harvesteu. These two townships are admirably situated topographically for the maneuvers. The troops can be bivouacked miles apart, making the problems of attack and de fense as difficult as possible and on a par with the maneuvers practiced by the Eu ropean armies. Major D. E. McCarthy, constructing quartermaster, U. H. A., at Fort Leaven worth, has received authority from the War department to proceed with the con struction of the new buildings authorized at Fort Leavenworth.

The day on which the banquet is to be given on board Brooklyn to the Portuguese ministers and local authorities has not yet bsn determined upon. Portuguese officials continue to visit the American ships and are cordially received.
