TWO HEN KILLED.

LAWRENCE, Kau., March 4, 1873.
Tb tie Editor Of The CHICAGO Tribune:
E1R: A terrible accident occurred here this
morning, which was fatal in it's result to two
hard-working mechanics,-Howard Shepherd,
formerly Of Connecticut aud John E. Clay, former
ly OF Chicago. While engaged in painting the
Mansard roof Of the new building for the First
National Bank, which is five stories high, the
scafrolding gave way, and precipitated the unfor-
tunate men to the sidewalk, . distance Of about
70 feet They we're both taken up in IN insen-
sible condition, and conveyed to the drugstore
OF Morris 4 Crandall, only . short distance from
the bank-building. Clay only breathed 3 few
minutes. His neck, leg, and arm were
broken, and he was badly mashed generally. He
was less than 80 years old, and leaves wife and
little child He was member OF the Order Of
Odd Fellows, who will take charge Of the funeral
ceremonies. The Odd Fellows' Funeral Aid So
ciety OF Kansas, Of which he WAS member, will
contribute something near 81, 900 for the relief
Of the family: But for this timely precaution
while living, his family would have been left
comparatively helpless, financially
h1r. Shepherd lived only about an hour after
the accident. He was about 40 years old, and
leaves . wife and i've children, who reside on q
farm Of their own near this city His father and
brother are with the family.

THE SCAVENGER WORK.
The Contract with Peter Downie
Forfeited.
New Bids Received Yesterday---Re-
moyal Of Dead Animals.

The recent discovery made by the Common
Council and the Board Of Health, that the con-
tractor who had been engaged in doing the scaT-
ecger-work for tho city WAS unable to perform
the duties demanded Of him at the pr1ce paid
him, resulted in tho annr1l1tng of the contract
and advertisements for other bids. Mr. Downle,
the former contractor, had agreed to do the
work for $40 day, but the unexampled rapidly
OF the city'a second growth, and various other
unlooked-for circumstances, utterly blasted his
hopes and, "a Mayor Medill said st meeting OF
the Special Council Committee on the subject,
:. the work would haro been done better if the
city had been more liberal, and the contractor
had done moro than he was paid for already"
The new bids were received by the Doa1d Of

4 VAEub0ud Prince,

New York German papers contain the follow.
ing curious advertisement:
We have reasons to believe that Prince Felix,
OF Ta1is, is now in the United States. He has
no right to contract any debts Whatever, and the
estate Of the family will be beyond his control
even after he has reached his majority. His
promissory notes arc absolutely worthless, and
the undersigned will not, under any circum-
stances, pay any debts the Prince may incur"
Here follow the names OF tho executors OF
this scapegoat prince, to whom tho foregoing 90
hatteringfy refers. There is considerable reason
to baueve, according to recent adrices from
Ratisbon, in New York, that he is there. He is
an oyezgro"n boy, not yet 20 ;yoars Of age, but
has already succeeded in gaining much noto1iety
by his reckless extravaganza. He is tho last
lneal descendant Of the eminent family which,
in tho middle ages, played conspicuous part IN
Germany, and which acquired historical reputa-
ton Tho estate to which the young Prince is
sole heir amounts to about e15, ,000, 900. With

DESIGNS FOR THE NEW CITY HALL.

The time is rapidly approaching when the
si1ty or seventy architects throughout: the
United States will have finished their 1abors On
the designs for the new City HALL It is stated
By competent authorities that there never WAS
so much competition among architects in tho
United States as the Courthouse has produced.
The foremost designers in Boston. Now York,
Philadelphia, Cincinnati, and Chicago, ara all
busy upon their plans, and the result will bo as
tonishing. They have al gone to work With tho
intention Of winning the first premium. This
done, the work will be Of 50 immense
character ns to make tbs fortune
Of the fortunate competitor. -The
specifications require the Arrangement Of tho
various rooms and Offices to be similar in all the
esigns, and, further, prohibit any architect from
putting his name to his plan. He is required to
afix motto or mark to tho drawing, with the
key to it in sealed letter. The letter is not to
be opened until the award is made. For this
reason, and for others equally obvious, re-
porters arc not permitted to study the plans by
the architects and, except by accident, they will
have no access to them until March Is. when they
will become public property. Several gentlemen
have permitted reporters to'look at the drawings
of the elevations, and as these have been studied
with the utmost care. the pictures are superb
works Of art in many cases. They are ~ OF
very large BIG. Ihe question naturally Arises,
where will they be hung during the month Of
public exhibition Each drawing will be dve
feet long and there are eight drawings by each
competitor, Or about 160 square feet to each
Multiplied BY sixty, the result is 5000 square
feet Of exhibiting space. which the City Hall, all
told, does not contain, for the drawings must
not be placed out Of sight near the ceiling. This
difficulty was not foreseen By the city authori-
ties, and may prove to be- serious one. -
There is one other hitch which is not generally
understood BY the public. The rules OF the
American Architectural Institute forbid any mem
ber from entering into competition where the
jury is not composed Of scientifc men, experts
in the art. The authorities have not as Jet, and
probably will not. appoint professional jury,
but reserve the right OF decision to themselves.
Hence Il number Of Chicago architects have nom
inally held aloof from competition, actually COM
peting through their draughtsmen. Other mem-
bers have gone to work, shielding themselves
behind the plea that there is no reason to believe
that jury OF experts will not be- appointed.
Present indications point to magnificent build
ing at the magnificent cost Of ga, ,000, 900. .

THE MECHANICS INSTITUTE.

Ameeting Of the members OF the Mechanics
Institute was held in the Circuit Court roona,
new City Hall, yesterday afternoon. There we're
about forty persons present.
.Isaac Spear called the meeting to order, and
said his object in calling them together W.s to
give the members an opportunity to Eigr the
new books, the old ones having been destroyed
in the fire. Back dues would not be collected
only the initiation feo Of 81 being required.
Next Thursday ofdcers were to be nominated Ind
one week from that day III election woul< be
held. He read = dispatch from Thomas
B. Bryan, Esq, who il in Washington, in mich
he stated that business prevented his bdng
present, aud that the mechanics should promptly
revive the Institute. The speaker had no dm9t
the institution would be revived, and thaf It
would become permanent.
Those present then came forward and Eald
