The Sixth Auditor Passes Away
AFTER Suffering From RrJsipeias.
Some time ago Sixth Auditor Jacob II.
Ella noticed an inflammation on the right
side of his nose. lie thought it was boil
and paid but little attention TO 1t. 1t grew
worse and spread over the lips and into his
mouth. The attention of physician was
called to 1t. lie pronounced it erysipclas.
1t continued TO become more viruient.
Last Friday Mr.. Ella took to his bed, and
has since been unable to get out.
Although he knew that his malady was
dangerous, he has always had the utmost
confidence in his recovery. To-day he grew
a good deal worse aud died at IL o'clock.
he was with his wife on the Seventh street
road, near the Soldiers Home, whore they
have been spending the summer. Mr.. Ella
is about sixty four years of age. He is from
New Hampshire, which State he formerly
represented in Congress. For number of
years he was the Fifth Auditor of the
Treasury. When Sixth Auditor McGrew
went out about three years ago, Mr.. Ella
was transferred to the Sixth Authorship.
Mr.. Ella died this morning at about 1880
o'clock. Last night was very bad night
for him. His death, however Is regarded
by those who knew his condition as sudden.
He was very strong, robust man. Mr..
Boone Chambers, the chief clerk of the
Sixth Auditors Office, spent last night with
him. This morning he was telephoned by
Mrs. Ella to como out.
Before he could reach tho house Mr.. Ella
was dead. A meeting Of the officials Of the

poEr LAUREATE OF sourn wAsn1Naroy,

POET LAUREATE OF SOUTH WASHINGTON,
Explains his woes in feeling verse,
And 'cusses" us In language terse;
Bemoans the loss Of slopcart fair,
And fears that cholera fills the air,
"Pegasus" lie does nimbly climb,
And prays relief in runic rhyme.
The Report.
Our minlon was eped on the wings OF the
wind,
Most quickly the poets sad grievance to
find.
He sought the fair mansion the poet has
llmned,
In fear lest the fonlness his genius had
dlmmed.
But, alas the poor poet, his "lconso" he'd
used,
And wrong was the rhyme which our minlon
abused.
The poet was starving, for a month had not
dined,
And the visions OF garbage were all IN his
mind.

THE PAY OF DISTRICT LABoRERs.
Their Demand for an Increase n
Just One, which should Be
Granted.

The Commissioner of Street Improve.
ments, Mr.. ]. J. Borroughs, was asked this
morning as to the propriety Of granting the
petition of the District laborers for an in-
crease of wages from $l.25 to $l.5o per
day.
"The demand is a very just one and
should certainly be granted. The men who
arc paid $1.25 per day do not average 50
per week all the year round, and this is
certainly very low wages to support a
family upon. The work is hard and con-
slant The contractors are paying their
men $3.50 per day, and as a consequence
they naturally capture the best men, aud
the District is unable to secure enough
good, trustworthy lsborers to perform tho
necessary work. The increase asked for
would be simple act of justice, would in
sure better wOrkmen, accomplish more
work, and in the long run would be in
every way desirable and economical"

Beckett concur in the views of Mr.. Bur
rOughs.
