wanted-A Competent Architect.
Ell PAso (Tex.}, June 4th.-They are
building or rather trying to build, City
Hall and State House in the city OF CHI
huahua, Mexico. Up to the present time
they have only employed native Mexican
architects and contractors on this work
| but il seems that the nation that once sue
ceeded in constructing such marvellous
piles as the great cathedral in the City
| of Mexico, or even that in the city
| of chihuahua, is no longer capable OF
] building a common City Hall. They had
| 10 quit work on it simply because nobody
| in the State was capable of experimenting
and finishing it. The Chihuahua State
authorities have sent an order 10 the III
Paso Times to advertise for competent
architect and builder, to come down to the
city at once and finish their building for
them. Ii will be both a City Hall and
State House.

words to the Judge, whereupon the latter

The fact that the jury were out nearly two
| hours without finding verdict leads many
to the belief that they will fail to agree.
