Olty Attorney Connell has been directed by the city council to proceed against W. J. Connell , property owner , to collect about $1,000 In specUl taxes , which nre assessed against oneof his lots on account of the Ijoavenworth street grading. The fact that Mr. Connell was the owner of the lot was not known to more than one or two members of the council when the action was taken and there is now considerable curiosity to see how the city attorney will succeed ns a collector. The matter carne up In connection with a communication which was received from the Globe Loan and Trust company. May 7. The company represented that warrants amount ing to $ .100 on the grading district were- held by some of Its cistern clients and that the credit of the city would suffer If they were allowed to run much longer. The matter was referred to the finance committee , which re ported a week ago. The commlttuc stated that on Investigation it had been discovered that all the special taxes In tlvls district had been paid except on one lot on which the tax amounted to $595.18 and the delinquent In terest to $5S3.2S. If this was pilil there would bo enough In the fund to meet all outstanding obligations and leave a balance on hand , The committee therefore recom mended that the papers In the case be re ferred to the city attorney with Instructions to nt once take the necessary steps to col lect the delinquent tux and In the event of failure to do so within two weeks , to return the papers to the finance committee for further action. The report was adopted by n unanimous vote and the city attorney was Instructed accordingly. No man Is pleased with the contemplation of premature old ago and loss of vital pow ers.

Member ? of the police force count them selves nbout $3,000 richer as n result of n decision that was handed down by the state supreme court Thursday. The decision calls upon the county to pay that amount of money to the officers as witness fees ac cumulated from criminal cases In the dis trict court during the past four years. For the past four years , as a result of the work of the legislature uf ! S92 , police olllcera have not been drawing witness fees In criminal eases In the district court. Previous to that time they hud been doing to. The legislature of 1S92 , however , passed nn amendment to the city charter , provid ing that police o Ulcers should not draw fees from the police court , nor from any criminal court In the state. This amendment wns naturally displeasing to the officers , because It cut oft a revenue ranging from a few dollars to more than MOO a year. The county commissioners re fused to pay the fees upon demand nnd consequently u case wns started In the dis trict court , questioning the constitutionality of the amendment. It was maintained that the olliccrs had us much right as any other citizens of the Btato to draw witness fees. Thomas Hnycc. who was a detective nt the lime , was made the plaintiff In the cnso , nl- Ihough the expenses were paid by nil Inter- fsted members of the police force. The dlu- Irlct court decided In. favor of the olllcers ind then the county commissioners appealed | o the supreme court. Yesterday's decision the result.

Another sleeping car story is being circu lated , and the truth of It Is backed by n man well known in Chicago for his veracity and abhorrence of exaggeration. Ho tells the story on himself , or rather his wife , and , whllo it savors of the usual sleeping car tale. It has Ita good points , relatco the Chicago cage Inter Ocean. Together with ha ! wife the man was trav eling recently from California. One night he awoke In his berth In the agony of horri ble pairs In the stomach. As they were passing through a prohibition district , and there was nothing more tempting on board than apolllnarls water , his wife was assured that his Intentions were honest when ho shrieked loudly for brandy. Hut there was none to be had ; so , with the Instinct of a true woman during family affliction , the wife rushed to her satchel and drew therefrom .1 mustard plaster , an Institution upon which she pinned 'her faith in casea of the kind , and requested the porter to get hot water without delay. When the poultice was In readiness for application she returned and carefully pulled cslde the curtains of a berth , tenderly placing the plaster. An Instant later a howl rent the air and a voice of agony , emanating from behind the long whiskers of a stranger , gasped : "Great heavens ; the train's wrecked ! The boiler's lying on me. Oh , how it burns ! Help ! Help ! Fire ! Fire ! " Nightcaps , -disordered frizzles , red and olcepy eyes and ashen faces were thrust out Into the alale in horror , wonder and sur prise. The poor woman who wns the Inno cent cause of the excitement hastily with drew to her own quarters while the porter removed the "holler" from the stranger and assured everybody that all was well.

Joseph Richardson , nn eccentric m'llhnaln , died in what Is known as the "Splto house" In New York City , a. few days ago. Mr. Illchardson was 84 years old. For sixty-four of those years he has tolled ln- defatlgably to accumulate wealth. He entered the business of building houses when he came to New York from Ntsw England a young man. and with such success that his fortune is rated "at $20W)0.000. ) About' fifteen years ago he built the house hs lived In and died In the house known to all the upper East Side as the "Spite house. " On account of the publicity It has' .brought to him this house has been the trial of Mr. Richardson's life , for he has always disliked newspaper no toriety. What earned it the name ot "Spite house" was the circumstances 'that caused him to build it. Sixteen years ago , 'Heyman ' Sarner de sired to build a block of apartment houses In East Eighty-second street west of and adjoining a strip of land five feet wide and 104 feet deep , extending along Lexington avenue , owned by Mr. Hichardson. To have ils apartment houses front Lexington avenue , Mr. .Sarner made Mr. Hlchnrdson an offer of $1,000 for the five foot strip. 'Mr. Hichard son demanded $5,000. * Mr. Sarner declined to pay it , and went ahead and built his apart ment houses , thinking that the five foot strip would bo useless to anybody , and that his houses would have the frontage anyway. Then Mr. Richardson began the construc tion of a remarkable house. When com pleted It wns n structure four stories high , 104 feet long nnd five feet wide , cunningly levlsed as a dwelling' ' place and a marvel to ook upon. From the Lexington avenue Ride t is n comfortable appearing house , full of windows and studded with deep bays. From Blghty-second street It gives one the Im- iresalon of a bicycle case set on end. The : unilturo In the houte was manufactured exprcFsly to fit the rooms , and the beds are narvels of the science of designing to fit a specified space. Spiral staircases are the rule In the house , and a person of girth baa diffi culty In ascending them. It Is Impossible for two persons to pass In the halls , one be ing compelled to pass In n room until the oilier goes by. The table In the dining room Is a feat and six Inches wide and the rest of the furniture in proportion. To go from one end of the house to the other on any floor It Is necessary to pass through all the rooms and to dodge the staircase. Despite the manifest disadvantages of his domicile , the eccentric millionaire de clared vehemently that It Is the most com fortable house In New York , and his wife agreed with him. In financial circles Mr. TUchardson was very well known. Ho was considered one of the most honest men , while very economical In business. TOM'S UliCIS.Vr DI2.1IISR.

KANSAS STO11 IKS. Tht * MiinehiiliHell Humor of ( InSiiii - llo vi'rStale. . Se\eral stories retold by tlic Kansas Clt > Journal , which the reader can or canno bellevo , Just ns he sees fit , were startec after the Seneca tornado , two years ago , ha < violated the state law In reference to th malicious destruction of property and de parted for parts unknown. Probably the best one was this : A man was riding aloni on horseback with a jug of whloky tlci with a strap to the saddle-horn. After th blow had ceased the jug handle was founc Inside the Jug and the strap was sticking out of the nozzle , the jug having bcei blown Inside out without spilling u droi of liquor. Hero Is another pretty fair ono : farmer was plowing around an obloni , patch of ground one day , and nt night tin. tract of unploughed land Elill container about five acres. When ho quit for the da > ho left the plow sticking In the furrow , as farmers often do. The tornado came aloof , and caught the plow , taking It around am around the land until It was all ploughed. A Konran abroad recently found a crowi that did not seem to appreciate his conver sation concerning the conspiracy of the for elgn capitalists to compel the populist farm ers nf Kansas to pay their honest debts , so ho pulled out his stock of tornado stories hoping to attract attention. "I saw n cyclone once , " said he , "that picked up a strawotack and moved It a mile anil put It back , straw on straw , as It was. ' Two or three of the auditors yawned and the Kansas man tried It again. "Another time , " said he , "I saw n twister euck sixty gallons of molasses out of a. barrel in front of a grocery store and distribute it to every family in town who had a bucket out on the back tcp for the milkman. " Ho cleared his throat and began again : "Hack In the ' 70'n we had a terrible cyclone In Western Kansas. It blew tlie cracks out of the fences , pulled a cistern out of the ground , moved a township line and changed the day of the week. " This last fusillade Induced one of the listen ers to speak up. He said : "I do not know much about cyclones , but once when I was at rea I saw a waterspout pick up tons and tons of water and carry it a mile and" "Hold on , " cried the Kansan. "If you are Bolng to degrade this conversation to the level of a common lying contest I will retire. " Anil he got up and walked away prompously. A prominent Kansan Is accredited with telling this : "TeH you what's a fact. I have known It to blow twelve days and nights on a stretch and hold a sheep up against the side of the barn until he starved to death. " Probably the stoiy which better Illustrates the position of the- populist farmer In Kan sas than any told In recent years Is this : Kansas man ( visiting In the east ) Yes , sir , Kan sis Is the country for the farmers. Look at her vast prairies covered with crops KO heavy that they make whole counties sink down In the middle. Look at her corn crop , so vast that It crowded township lines Into the river. Same Kansas man ( at the populist meeting in his own neighborhood ) Fellow-sufferers , ilry weather , Hessian files and gold bugs prey lllco vampires on our state. Our once fair state Is plastered over with mortgages so heavy that wo have to bore a hole through them with nn auger In order to plant corn. Rouse , yo slaves ! There has been n premium offered for the capture of the man who started this clever Ho : "A Kansas farmer planted his farm In popcorn , and gathered It Into his barn. The barn took fire , the corn popped and filled a ten-acre field. His old marc think ing It a snowstorm , lay down and froze to' death. " In discussing the question in Western Kansas not long ago , a citizen from the short grass country said : "i think that Kansas Is in need of a good deal of Irriga tion. There are times when It Is no dry in the western part uf the state that you have to soak a hog over night before he will hold swill. There nro places where water is wet only on ona side. I know n place where the owner of a ferryboat hauls water cloven months In the year to keep his ferry running. Why , water is so scarce there that the men won't drlng It. The cause of this drouth Is that tha railroads in Kansas have cornered the water supply of the state to put Into their stock , " Hero is another drouth story told by n traveling man : "I was driving across the country tii a llttlo town In western Kaunas the other day , when I met a farmer hauling a wagon load of water , " 'Where do you get water ? ' said I , " ' the road about miles ' ho 'Up seven , re plied , ' " 'And you haul water seven miles for your family and stock ? ' " ' ' 'Yep. " 'Why In the name of sense don't you dig a well ? ' " 'Because It's jest as far ono way as the Other , stranger. ' " IMKTIJKX Y13.UIH I.V A OAVH. iirluer of the I.ule Senulor Hfitrxt Tire * of llernill Life. J. N.

Ho said that for nine teen years he had be n living In Mexico , It la the old story of a futile eoarch for great riches. Mr. Harbin was born In Jackwou county , Tennessee , seventy-seven years ago , and went to California In 1844. He says that ho became associated with the late Senator Hearst In mining and business ventures. Ho made considerable money , and In 1878 he came to Mexico as representative of a com pany of California capitalists seeking raining Inveitments In the country. Ho located the St , Marcos and Socorro tllver mines , state of Durango , for his company. These two mines proved very rich and made a fortune for the company owning them. After clearing up $200,000 Mr. Harbin with drew from the company and located the Vacu mine for himself. Ho purchased mining ma chinery In the United State * and began the development of hla property on a largo scale. Just an a fortuuo was In sight the mine be- Dee , June IS.

The water could not b-3 controlled , and things went from bad to worse until all his money was cone. These misfortunes disheartened him so greatly that he thought It would be bettci for his family nnd old friends to think him dead , and the report reached his wife and two children in Fresno , Cal. , fifteen years ago that ho had died of mountain fever. When his health had improved Mr. Harbin went into the heart of the rugged Sierra Madre Mountains , MO miles from the rail road southwest of the city of DurMigo. He found a favcin , wheie he has since lived the life of a hermit , subsisting on wild game and vegetables which he cultivated. Ten weeks ago an American ore buyer for the International Smelting and Refining com- l > any was making a trip to remote mining camps In the Sierra Madrea when he came across the abode of Mr. Harbin by tlie side of a mountain trail. He spent a night with the old man , who told his remarkable story. The ore buyer urged the old man to return to his family and friends in California. This the hermit said he would do , but ho had no money. Returning to the city of Durango the ore buyer telegraphed the news that Mr. Harbin was alive and wanted to return homo to n friend In Fresno , Cal. A < | Ulck response was received from the hermit's son , who tele graphed money for tlie Journey. A messen ger was sent Into the mountains for Mr. Harbin , He was brought to Diirango and a through ticket to Fresno was bought for him. lieing very feeble , his ticket was either lost or stolen , and he was put off the train. Ills son was notlftrd and the money for nil- other ticket was forwardfd. The old man Is now speeding on his way to California to eo tils family and friends after an absence of nineteen years.
