Gendemen-I am constrained to invite your at

increased litigation growing ont of the late war
and recent political complications and dersnged
finances, the duties Of the city attorney have be-
come 90 onorous TO render Il almost impossible,
under the present system, to do justice to his
Office. This fact wss recognized in ell the recent
attempts to amend the city charter, and all the
bills provided for very liberal salary and for in
creased professional aid.
inclose resolution which think, without sc.
riously taxing the city, provides for reasonable
compensation and for proper assistance, and will
enable mes trust. to perform satisfactorily the

Five Children Eat Belladonna.

Says the Pittsburg Chronicle of last evening:
One OF the most distressing cases of accidental
record is detailed below. Five children, three
of them the children of Mr.. George N Miller
formerly Superintendent of the Allegheny Water
Works, and two the children of Mrs. Schwartz
welder, are the victims; and one of them
George Grant Miller, little boy four years and
five months old, died YESTERDAY morning at the
home of his parents, No. 81 Water street. On
Saturday morning, it appears, the five children
were playing together in the yard attached to
the house. The yard also belonged to several
other houses. One of the children picked
up what he supposed to be piece of licorice
and which he divided among his playmates A
short time after eating the stuff the children
came into the house, when Mrs. Miller, observ-
ing something peculiar in their actions, ques-
toned them and discovered the finding of the
supposed lieorice. From their appearance the
lady concluded something was wrong, which
was confirmed in few minutes by one of the
children, little George, suddenly falling to the
floor in cOnvulsions. As quickly as possible
physicians were sent for, and in response Drs.
Mahon and Rankin came TO the house. They at
once, from the symptoms pronounced it a case
of poisoning, and administered every available
remedy, but without affording any relief to
the principal sufferer. He lay from the
time of calling in the physicians-about
noon Saturday-nntil o'clock yesterday morn
ing, all the time unconscious and working in
spasms until death came to his relief. The other
children revived somewhat under medical treat
ment and yesterday were considered out of
danger One of them handed to the physician a
small piece of the stuff which had been eaten,
and which, upon examination, proved to be
belladonna, one of the most virulent poisons.
Subsequently another small piece of the stuff
was picked up in the yard at the place where the
children had been playing. Coroner Clawson
was notified of the sad occurrence and empa-
nelled jury yesterday morning, but adjourned
the inquest until o'clock this evening.
