In the various city department * thM ,

) hl , s well as among tbo great uum-
> or of people who have bailnces to
rantaot with them , there Is a growing
oollng of dltsattsfaotlon ftt the alow
irogress made with the work ou the
now city hall. A few days ago a well
; rown youth passing through the
iourt yard , flanked by Its great prlton-
Ike piles , with masons working on
op , exclaimed to his father , who was
with him : "Do yon think , pap , that
f I llvo to bo a gray'haired old man
; will sue this building finished ! "
'Well , that Is a hard conundrum , my
> oy , " the father said , buttoning the
joy's overcoat to protect him from
he ohlll and dripping moisture of the
lark , cavern-llko paissges through
which they wore walking. "You will

all depends upon tbo next generation

next centenary. " The already some
what ancient history nf the unfinished
municipal hall of Philadelphia , re-
erred to in the extravagance of this
episode , forms one of the most inter
eating features that attracts the alien-
ion of the now generation that has
atison since its first stone was laid.
As far back as December , 1808 , fifteen
roars ago , councils passed an ordl-
lance providing for tbo erection of
municipal buildings on Independence

to carry It Into effect. Within a year

idvonteen different architects , from
which number the plan of John Mo-
Arthur , jr. , ot Philadelphia , was

tppointed architect of the work December -
comber 27 , 1809. The intense oppo-
i'ion thut existed to making Indo-
icndonoo square the alto for the build-
ugs culminated ia the pnisege by the
state legislature of an act submitting
, o popular oto at a general election

A Jointed Snako.
ChMlottefN OJObieiver.
Jake Barrlngor , a tenant who w
plowing on Mr. John Wadswort'a fan
recently , turned up with the plow
share ono of these curiosities a joint *
ed snako. The reptile was about a
yard In length , and wu put together
in tour sections. The darky did not
know what sort of a snake It was
when It was first turned up , and hit It
with a stick to kill It. At the first
blow the snake foil all to pieces , the
head going ono way and the tall part
the other , and the two body pieces
jcraped off in different directions
The amazed darky resumed his plow
ing , wont to the other end of the fur
row , and on his return was surprised
to see th.6 snake all together again , ex
cept the tall piece , and watching a few
minutes saw the tall earning up tojoln
tha body , taking sharp , quick little
jerks. It came nearer and nearer ,
until within a few inches of the three-
fourths snake , when It gave a sudden
jerk and hitched on In its proper
place , with a fuss resembling the pop
ping of a cap. The darky knocked
It to pieces several times , and each
tlmo It came together again. He car
ried his amusement a little too far ,
however , In throwing the tall part of
the snake across the creek , just to see ,
as ho said , "how long it would take to
catch up , " but it never caught up.
The snake with Its three joints was
carried to the honso , and the tall Is no
doubt stilt going about the woods
hunting for a snake to hitch onto ,

'I transferred ono of our freight cars

"How did it got there1 ?
"I suppose the trainmen of the

jono first to New York and then
hrongh to Salt Lake Olty. For all

"Yea , it can bo traced in its wander-

reported the car to us. "
"Are snob things common among

"They do not occur frequently. ]
remember when I was with the Louis

of oil to bo sent up to an oil refinery
on Front street , and supposed the car
waa delivered according to orders. It
was throe months before the car was

A UIO HOTEL BILL.
How Conspirators Plucked South
Carolina , and How a New York
Landlord Plucked Them.
A Washington letter says : At the
unveiling of the Henry statue last
week a gentleman said : "Do yon BOO
that comfortable , self-satisfied looking
colored man standing near Attorney
General Brewater'a red-wheolcd car
riage ? That man has a history. Ho
IB a $1,200 clerk , now in the Interior
department , and ho teems ocmtent
with his lot. Ho is entitled to the
proud distinction of having paid the
biggest hotel bill In this or any other
country. " On being pressed to tell
the story about this monster hotel bill ,
the gentleman said that the man who
Is now the $1,200 clerk was , in the
early days of reconstruction , the secre
tary of state of South Carolina. He
had been educated for the ministry ,
but having gone into politics , he was
elected secretary of state. The gov
ernor and financial agent concocted a
scheme to issue $0,000,000 of state
bonds for the purpose of taking up
certain outstanding bonds. The leg
islature authorized the Issue of bonds ,
but It was necessary that the bonds
should be placed on the market aa se
cretly and oxpodltlously as possible. It
was determined to go to New York
and Issue the bonds there , where they
were to bo sold. It was necessary
that the secretary of state should go
along and take the great seal of state.
The governor , financial agent and sec
retary of state arrived In New York in
duo time , where elegant apartments
had been taken In the St. Denla ho
tel. The proprietor of the ho
tel had demanded a pretty high
figure for entertaining tha party , but
when ho found out that the secretary
of state was a negro ho refused to en
tertain him at any price. Ho aald if
It were known that a negro was put
ting np at the hotel his patrons would
desert him at once. The tlmo waa
soon after the war , and the prejudice
against negroes was almost as bitter in
Now York as It waa In Now Orleans ,
when the question of equality was the
ssne. The governor and the finan
cial agent were in a dilemma. The
secretary of state they knew waa very
timid and they were afraid , If. they
suggested to him that ho would bavo
to seek other quarters , ho would take
himself back to South Carolina ,
with the great seal of state , and
their pretty scheme would be knocked
In the head. They therefore went to
the landlord and explained their
trouble frankly , and promised , if ho
would permit the secretary of state to
remain , they would take their meals
in tholr rooms , and would , besides ,
pay him any sum ho would demand
for damages ho might snffor from the
presence of the negro in the house ,
The party remained at the Si. Donls
forty-five day * , and put their $0,000-
000 of bonds on the market. The bill
of the secretary of state for the forty ,
five days' entertainment was $12,000 ,
or a little over $205 a day ,
