crazy , was taken to the county jail yester
day afternoon for thirty days on a charge of
vagrancy. At the expiration of that time , if

The Catholic ladies of St. Francis Xavier's

cert and tpmdrillo party at the Masonic temple -

undo of the defendant , stated in ah inter
view that ho was perlectly acquainted with
nil of the facts in the case , and is authority

prevailing opinion that tlio defendant will bo
discharged.
The roof of the now Merriam block was
completed , yesterday , unit Martin Hughes & .
Son , the contractors for the unck work , ex
pect , to complete their work next Tuesday , if
there Is no delay in trotting the cornice. Jt
lias required 1,500.COO , brick to erect the
foundation and walls of this handsome busi
ness block , and about 1,500 barcrls of limo

work will shortly como to a standstill for a
while , as it will bo impossible to continue the
interior work unless the building Is heated ,
nnd the contract is not yet let lor the steam
heating apparatus.
Mr. J. II. Cress has been 111 for many
months with consumption , and asaiesult
Ills earthly subsistence had become greatly

The members of the old Rcscuo Volunteer
flro company am making arrangements for
their annual ball , to bo given at Masonic
temple Wednesday evening , January U. The
ball is always given on the evening of the
Bccqnd Wednesday of January , and for this
leason the city has few representatives at
the winter convention of the state llremon's

name time , as many of the members of the
association tire also members of the Huscuo
company , and remain at homo to uttend the

cation. This Is the latest and most practical
way to sccuro the attendance of n witness ;
generally they arc tired out with contlnu-
uncos , or given a few dollars to leave , A
paying job goes n long way toward inducing
on impatient witness to stay by.

The City's HookUccpinu-
A short time ago the city council allowed n
bill of County Attoi noy Hcndricks for J100 ,
for work done In recheeklng tlio special as-
ses'inent books. Considerable comment was
occasioned by the bill , as It was thouirht that
the work should have been through other
channels. An Investigation of the matter re
veals the fact that no particular Individual
was to blame for it , but rather the sisli-m
in vogue for transmitting such business. The
ey stem was so complicated and diftlrult th.xt
it was almost an impossibility to check the
special assessments without overlooking
some of them
The cotintv auditor discovered that several
thousand dollars worth of these assessments
had never been charged tip , and so repoitcd
to the council. It was thought that the city
could well afTord to piy for having this work
done , as It covered a period of over two years.
Tlio city Is the gainer by a large sum , as the
work was done for ilOO. A now system has
now been adopted , and. now hook ? secured ,
< < o that in the tutuic nothing short of the
grossest carelessness will permit any over
sight. The council has performed a valuable
service in this direction , and should r-ccivo
duo cicdit for it , instead of tin * condemnation
that sonic parties are so freely bestowing.
There baa long been needed some rolonn
in the sy stem of bookkeeping on the part of
the city. It is hoped that tins council , hav
Ing started In , will not rest until every detail
is so systomati/ctl as to render it possible to
conveniently get at need"d facts ami figures ,
and impossible for such gross errors as have
characterised tlioye.irs gone by.

Contrary to the usual condition of things ,
the police maiket was short on drunks and
long on vags yesterday morning. The
change was doubtless owing to the fact that
the mercury had taken a sudden downward
tendency , rendering berths in the outer air
exceedingly uneomfoi table.
Two ol the homeless wanderers , Ed Ila-r-
goity nnd Joe Livingston , had been lelcased
from the cooler on the precc'ling morning ,
and had found so few disagreeable features
connected with the accommodations fur
nished there , that they wore ready by even
ing to give it a second trial. The court was
at a loss how to dispose * of their cases , and
finally continued them , as did ho also the
cases of Peter Hagloy and .lames Berry.
Charles Hooker was discharged , ami .lost
no time in leaving his comrades in misery
behind.
Nellie Miller and May Smith , a couple of *
the frail sisterhood , were arraigned for
drunkenness. Nellie pioved conclusively
that she was able to easily navigate in one
street of ordinary width whoa arrested , and
was discharged. May failed to convince the
court of her sobriety , and was compelled to
paj $3. JO to regain her liberty
John Phillips was also asked to contribute
7.U ( ) , after which court adjourned.

A very valuable addition has been made
to the public school museum. It is a very

ary survey for the Union I'aeillo railway.

mens from Utah , belonging to Mr. N. P.
JJodgo. The collection as a wliolo is very
large , varied , and valuable. The donation

erous ono indeed. The Dodge mineral col
lection will form'an Important and instruc
tive featm o of the museum , which will be
soon placed in order in the new Atkins

excellently arranged for such a purpose and
