DADDY MADDEN Alive 10 His Duty.
Good morning, President MADDEN. j
have been sent to see you, and / am glad TO
see Major Meriwether present, whose official
capacity makes him also an objective point
of the APPEAL to-day"
The president and city engineer were dis
cussing some samples OF cedar to be used in
paving Monroe street, and both consented 10
lay aside that business to hear what the AP-
PEAL had to say.
Addressing the president, the APPEAL nan
stated that considerable complaint had come
to the ears of the APPEAL about the appar-
emit hardness of the Beale street contractors.
ooh, yes" said President Hadden; 81 see,
a shot at me this morning. When you want
to know anything about the city's affairs
why don't you come round here and inquire
before you shoot eff like you did this morn
ing?"
"Perhaps, Colonel, that was done in order
to wake you up and let you know that the
APPEAL was after you"
"And then there's another thing. l want
you folks to know that i am not asleep on
the recorders bench. Ny hours are from s
o'clock in the morning till shutdown; you uu-
derstand."
The APPEAL man was in doubt whether
he was awake or dreaming, under the i'm
preston that the age had not yet arrived
when an official was supposed to do more
than wear the honors of office. But recall
ing the fact that we had often seen his honor
astride his Rosinante traversing the subur-
ban streets, alleys and backways, even before
the day Iaborers had breakfasted, we
accepted the situation and was about to
resume the Beale street question, when the
president interrupted.
"And / see you are after that COW ordi-
nance What is the matter with that now?
We thought we were doing the people of
the Ninth and Tenth wards special favor
in exempting their cattle from the penalties
of that ordinance"
We explained the position of the APPEAL,
to be that what was good in one locality must
be good in another, and that the ordinance
was unobjectionable except in the exclusion
of the two wards mentioned.
President Hadden explained that thar
provision was only temporary, as the ordi-
nance reads, "until further orders from this
Council"

city Engineer Meriwether Explains

City Engineer Meriwether Explains.
The Beale street trouble was resumed, and
Major Meriwether explained that there
should really be no cause for complaint
The greater part of the delay was caused by
unforeseen obstacles, mostly flooding rains,
which interiered with grading, and the addi-
ton of the area around the markethouse.
The work had been retarded somewhat by
the difficulty of satisfying the street railway
about the number of tracks they would be
allowed to run. This was based upon the
compla amt OF the occupants of business houses
on each side protesting against double
track from the markethouse to Main
street. We tried TO accommodate both sides.
We offered the railway company right OF
way on fernando to Gayoso and through
Gayoso to Main, but they would not hear TO
it, and finally it was agreed that a double
track might be laid on Beale from Causey to
Main. The contractor has overcome all of
his most serious troubles now, and you will
see that after he gets clear of the markelhouse
he will rush the work through TO Main in
very short time. Another trouble he has
had to contend with was the difficulty Of Be-
curing the right kind OF gravel for bedding
while the river was at its hight. We had TO
receive some that was not up to the standard
in order to hasten this work, knowing the
great Inconvenience the business people had
10 endure.
Major Meriwether detailed many things
encountered by both the city authorities and
the contractor which served to delay prog
ress of the work, from which we come to
think that all have done well to get the work
thus far along.

it / could see that ii was a grove OF some
ten or twelve acres, on getting within which
the house could be seen in an opening of
one or two acres extent. AS ] drove up to
the house l could see that the open space
had once been laid out with taste in shrub
berry, bordered walks and drives, though now
tangled and bitten down by cattle. The
house was story and half OF wood, built
above an adobe basement, which last was
surmounted by a Eigh veranda. Driving
under the veranda / unhitched my horses,
without embarrassing them, securing
them by their hslters to the buggy
gave them their corn, and taking my
blankets, bareback and bacon ascended the
wide steps leading to the veranda. Before
me was hall, with room on either side.
Pushing open the door of one l struck q
light and examined it; it had apparently
been a parlor or sltting-room. Another
door opened upon the veranda and at the
end was a large fireplace. The walls we're
paneled with alternate pine and walnut,
now rotting away in places. Tearing down a
quantity of the half rotten paneling,
quickly kindled FIRE in the wide fireplace,

bareback i made hearty supper. Then

stones to our sister denomination to
something mere permanent and desira.
Die In the near future, numbers of our
corg gregatioDs ell through the older
States are being disintegratei and alb

still, We are being pushed out Of terri.

tabliSh the Gospel by those whom we
c0mplacently style the minor sects.
Moreover, many of our societies are 80
weak and sickly' as TO impose not

THE PILOrAGE QUESTION.

PILOOR.

Another Victory for tho Delaware
PIIOGE.
In the United States Circuit Court
on Friday judges McKennan and But
ler delivered concurrent opinions in the
SO Of John Truxton, pilot, aga: nst the
schooner Alzena. Truxton had offered
his services to the schooner as . pilot,
which we're refused. His license was
issued by the State of Delaware, and he
brought suit in the United States Court
to recover under the law the fee he was
entitled to as the first offering his servi-
Ces, Notwithstanding their refusal
The question involved serious contest
between the pilots of the State of Della
ware and OF the State of Pennsylvania,
the Alzena having been bound for Phil
adelphiS. The Judges thought the
question in the case was covered by an
opinion recently delivered in the case of
the steamship Clymens. The judges
said, in substance, that it was no more
than fair that Delaware should have the
same rights to do pilotage service as her
sister State. A decree was therefore
entered In favor of Truxton for $55 80
with costs.
