young German architect in Chicago has
drawn plan and proposed a scheme whereby
the great fire shall be happily commemOrated.
His design is to erect in one of the public parks
a tower about 100 feet in hight, which shall be
surmounted by a phoenix; the tower TO be built
from foundation stone to turret with blocks of
stone or brick taken from the prominent build
ings DESTROYED by the fire. On each OF these
blocks the name of the building from the ruins
of which it was taken is to be conspicuously en-

the curious of future years, the top of the tower
IS reached by an exterior winding stairway, SO
constructed after tue type of the Archimedian
screw as TO make it appear part of the proposed
tower.

DELAY after the time fixed by law for its payment
would seem to be the most effective measure to
insure prompt payments of the duty. Gen.
Spinner concludes his report as follows: With
out the least intention or desire TO throw blame
upon any other officer it is due TO the officers of
the treasury that the emphatic declaration should
be made that for the dclalcation Of an officer be

ceyed so many replies. He put in the adyer-
tisement, believing that as a writer he had
perfect right TO resort to any means by which
he could get characters for his book. The let
tiers that had been opened contained postage
stamps, cdrtes de oisite, and testimonials from
various parts of the country and from young
ladies of good social position The magistrate
said the prisoner had adopted a very cruel
method OF getting characters" for his book,
and remandcd him for week. Bail was ac-
cepttd for his appearance.

A COMMENTED CoNyICT.-John Gull of Stark
county, KY. was sentenced to the pcntentiary
for life, Oct. 81, 1886, his crime being murder i'm
the second degree. He is now seventv-two
years Of age, nearly half of which has been
spent in the penitentiary. He is one of the cs-
tablished characters of the institution, and
probably wouldn't vamoose if rendered liberty:
indeed, his confinement is merely nominal, his
mental faculties being so impaired that he can
not appreciate discipline, and his whimsical dis
abilities being such that he is not valuable in
the workshop. In his estimation the riches of
Crpsus are but as a drop in the bucket to the
enOrmity Of his possessions and pecuniary
transactions; he could easily pay the national
debt and settled the vexed question of revenue
in a twnkling. He has long since superseded
the state in the proprietorship Of the prison
grounds, and does an outside banking business
which he cunts in hundred Of tons Of dollars.
The most Singular part of his haucnation is
his belief that lie prOSecutes his immense trans
actions outside of the walls at night. Nearly
every morning he has stories to tell Of the fabu.
lous quantities of money gained the night be-
fore, through his own enterprise or that of his
numerous agents. When asked the other day if
he had been out the night previous, he replied
that he had not, but had sent out some of his
men; he himself had been below (pointing to
the ground); the profits of the nights opera
tons he did not regard as amounting to much
only few tons of silver and a cart load or two
Of gold had been collected. This singular mml
has been in this demented condition for more
than ten years; although too feeble TO work. he
looks as if he might survive ten years more. If
turned out upon the world, he would be com
pletely lost. 10 his own imagination he has the
most unbounded liberty, and possesses what the
world vainly strives for, wealth without limit.

The act establishing woman suffrage in Wy
oming was passed by democratic Legislature
as Joke, the members not dreaming that the
governor would allow it TO become a law; but
they had mistaken their man. The governor
signed the bill Immediately, and the women of
Wyoming became legal voters. Whether they
have generally and regularly attended to the
duty of voting on election days, we are unable
to say Some of them have done so, and the
democratic politicians appear to think that most
of them have constantly voted wrong, being
controlled by an irrcpressible tendency to vote
for republican candidates. 1t is different in
New York city, where the only woman allowed
TO vote, at the last election, voted for VIM NJ.
Tweed. Now, the Wyoming democrats are pro-
cecding to repeal the woman suffrage act, aud
there is nothing iocose in their present treat
ment of the matter. Their repeating act has
passed one house and is now before the council
where it will doubtless be passed and sent to the
governor. 1t is said that the women who have
exercised the elective franchise, deny the right
of the legislature to repeal the act, and that they
will have the matter carried to the supreme
court of the United States. They assume that
honest legal voters cannot be rightfully disfran-
