sors were duly elected ana
qualified. It must be, tirst,
admitted that the Legislature
has perfect right to repeal any law it
pleases; second, that il DID repeal the law
authorizing an election OF certain officers
during the coming fall, and third, that
therefore no election can legally be held in
November 1881. If, then, no election can
be held, no county treasurer, county judge,
county clerk and county superintendent OF
public instruction will be elected and, there
fore, by special clause Of the state constitu.
tion the present incumbents will "hold
their offices until their successors shall
have been duly elected and qualified"
which will be in November 1889. So
mucn for the present.

ALMOST 4 TRAGEDY.

AT about ten O'Clock yesterday forenoon
the alarm of fire was rung out ell over the
city, but there was no fire. The immediate
cause Of the alarm was ths, an old frame
building standing on the north
side of Fourth street, between
Washington and Commercial avenues,
fell down with loud crash which caused
great commo,ion among people on the
stree, in the neighborhood and lead Others
to believe that there was fire and they
gave the alarm. Ia its fall it buried four
childred, Of from eight TO ten years Of age,
one Of whom was dangerously injured and
two slightly 50.
The house was standing on wooden
pillars, about six feet high, and was oc-
cupied by two families Mrs. Sallie Bard
and Mrs Whitehead. 1t belonged 10 Mr..
John Koehler, who had i, but re-
Gently repaired by Mr.. James Summerwell,
paying him upwards Of fifty dollars for the
work, which rendered it in a
tolerably safe condition. But 1t
appears that the occupants had
committed depredatlons on the property in
various ways, the most serious OF which
was the removal Of the braces from nea,ly
all the supporting pillars. The children
bad attached swings to the stills and joists
underneath the house and were amusing
themselves by swinging ct the time the
terrible accident occurred. The pillars,
having no braces, were, Of course, easily
swayed with the great weight of the house
upon them and when the children began
their amusement, the momentum given
them in certain direction, was more than
they could Withstand, aud the result was as
above stated.
The cbidren's names are Belle Sexton,
Belle Whitehead, Fred Doyle and Ed Wat
kins. The first named was seriously in
jured, having her right leg broken in the
thigh and below the knee, the latter being
compound fracture. She was also some
what injured internally. DIR. Parker, who
attended her, pronounced her injuries very
serious and her recovery somewhat doubt
full.
Belle Whitehead and Fred. Doyle were
slightly bruised, but Ed. Watkins was not
hurt The children were all rescued few
minutes after they had been buried by out
slders, who tore up the floor where they
heard their cries. The inmates of the
house were also more or less bruised about
the heads and bodies, and the furniture
was much damaged.
Mr.. Koehler denies that he had been no.
tilted Of the dangerous condition Of the
house.
