that the lightest of buggies may roll along
that thOrOughfare clear up to CarrOlltOn.
Administrator Burke has returned and was
in his office yesterday, looking better for a
little diversion.

One of the uptown schools has q very
nice yard where the grass grows, and the

because it would spoil it for crOquet after
school hours are over and the little ones
gone home.

POLICE CHANGEs-Captain Gray has
been ordered from the sixth police precinct
to take charge of the mounted branch.
This change is decidedly good one, as the
Captain is peculiarly fitted to reconstruct
that portion of the Metropolitan force. His
years of army experience and his excellent
judgment and energy are all required to
bring the mounted men up to q proper stand

ciplne. and if he does not satisfy his friends
then there is a great mistake somewhere.
Another quality which the Captain pos

are so familiar with it that they are only
surprised when they do not find details of
self-murder in their daily papers. The

took killing dose of poison early yester-
day morning at his home, No. 80, Blenvlile
street. the cause being attributed to power

this city ever since. The last position
he held was vice president of the
Teutonia National Bank. and in that
institution invested all his means, which
ruined him financially. This tried him
sorely, and several days ago his household
property was seized for debt, which proved
too great a blow for him to bear. On sew
