In 1881 the board of aldermen
passed an ordinance grading and ma
cadamizing Obi, street from Fifth
street north. The contract vas let to
L. B. Anderson and Warren Gal
breath. They went ahead and COM
pleted the contract. Subsequently
special tax bills were made out and
an effort made to collect them. Pay
ment was refused hence the suit.
The case was tried once and decided In
favor of tce plaintiffs, but new trial
was granted and which is now in pro-
gress, aud will probably be concluded
to-day.
The payment of the special tax bills
are resisted IN various grounds, viz;
Noncompliance of the contract by
the contractors In the kind of stone
used, and ON irregularities in letting
tho work to the plaintiffs without
proper competition.

A Lonely Tramp.

A Lonely Tramp.
"Say, Mister, can you tell me wher'
I'll find the mayor?" said very wo,
BECOME specimen of the genus tramp
to BAzoo scribe yesterday.
The speaker had on a pair of very
dirty blue overalls from which hi
knees protruded through the rents, dis
playing a skin, if any thing, even more
dirty than the rent overalls. His
body was enveloped in remneDt OF
calico shirt over which a linen dus-
ter with the skirt torn of at the waist,
answered for dress and ovorcoat,
while at the rear hung pendant an
other soiled portion of the calico un-
der garment. o. his head the tramp
had the remnants of what was once a
silk railroad cap, while his feet were
encased one in dilapidated congress
CATER and the other IN rubber boot
with hole in the toe.
"You will find the mayor at his
meat shop on East Third street." re-
sponded the scribe.
"How far is thatf'
"About a mile"
"Jewhilikins ! stranger; is there
any railroad leading theref
eyes; a street railway"
Hump! not much chance to steal
a ride on that"
ono, not a great one. Where are
you from?"
81 came up from Fort Scott
"Walks"
"Ain't there railroad from here
to Fort Scott"
Certainly"
swell, don't think I'm fool enough
to walk when there's cars If I am
poor
"Beg pardon; where are you go
ingi"
"To hi l reckon, or tsheoP they
call it now"
"What do you want to see the
mayor for?"
"To get pass out of town. l am
trying to get back to Pittsburg. Pm
a miner and have been out west since
the strike but l always managed to
strike work just as a strike struck the
work, and now | want to get back as
hear the strikes there are over.
Partner, don't think I'm a thief be-
cause I'm dirty, for l ain'r. Pm just
out of luck, that's all; and if they'll
help me to get home I'll stay honest,
but if they don't I'll steal to get in
all, for | need rest and a square
meal anyhow. Got a chaw er ter

eyes, and here's quarter with it
% help YOU"
"Thanks, Mr., you're gentleman;
cts 90 and take something"
"No, thank you. You better go
zee the mayor. Good day"
GOOD day, sir"
An hour later the scribe saw the
DOOR fellow in a saloon eating lunch,
nd if he left town last night it was
because he had no money
eft, and such is the story of hundreds
Who roam to-day rather than work.

Yankton Press, 9th: Reliable informa-
ton is brought from Sioux Falls that Ad-
jutant General Thomas s. Free, who has
suffered with a disease of the brain for
some months past, is now pronounced by
his physicians to have softening of the
brain in most serious form, and prepara-
tions have been made for removing him
from Sioux Falls to the home of his early
years in Iowa, in the hope that he may i'm
prove. If this resort fails he will be
brought to the Yankton asylum for treat
ment.. He is violently insane, and very
few of his friends doubt but that it is per
manent. This intelligence will be severe
blow to his many friends in Yankton. His
bereaved family is entitled to the sympa-
thy and coincidence of all Dakota. The
Dakota national guard will lose one of its
best officers by this termination of General
Frees malady.
A dispatch to the associated press states
that Adjutant General Free has been taken
to the insane asylum at Yankton.

Why the Flag Was Lowered, ,

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.-Further advices
have been received by the state department
to-day touching the action of the Canadian
authorities in hauling down the American
flag on the schooner Marcen Grimes. The
facts as officially stated are that the ami

the Grimes occurred while his vessel was in
the custody of the Canadian officials and
he celebrated that event by hoisting the
American flag over his vessel. The Cana
dian customs officers have confessed that
mistake was made in summarily lowering

"A Bride Murdered While Asleep by the
Side Of Her Husband.
HOUSTON, No. Oct. 1S.-The most myste-
rious and diabolical crime ever perpetrated
in southern Missouri was committed on
Big creek, SIX miles east of this city, last
Friday morning. On that morning at 8
o'clock Mrs. Ella Williams, the bride of
Rolf Williams, was lying asleep by the side
of her husband. when some unknown per-
son entered the bedroom, placed pistol
against her forehead and sent bullet
through her brain. No possible motive can
be assigned for the deed, except that some
disappointed former lover Of the bride took
this means of revenge. Mrs. Williams, be-
fore her marriage, was the belle of the
county and bore an irreproachable char
acter. The murderer is still unknown and
at large.
