DICKINSON STAYS.
Tie Ex-General superintendent Given
a Good Position.

Here is some mighty interesting rail-
road news from Omaha received here by

ager, to the position Of traffic manager.

general freight agent, vice II. A. John
son, resigned; L. l.. Lomax general pas
senger agent, vice j. S. Tebbetts, pro
NOTED, and T. w. Lee assistant general
passenger agent, vice Lomax, promoted"
The foregoing will lift the wind from
the sails of those who have been main
tanning that Dickinson had been genteelly,
but bodily, fired" The old timer is still
in the ring. Assistant General Freight
Agent Johnson. who, by the a is a fine
gentleman. is the only man lost in the
shuttle incident to tie new deal. Dickin-
sons territory on the Union Pacific is
from Omaha to Cheyenne.

INJURIOUS TO HEALTH.
The Sanitary Condition of the City Hail
Criticised.

The sanitary Condition of the City Hall
Criticised.
On the complaint of some of the judges
of the District Court an inspection of the
City Hall has been made at the order of
the Health Department, by Mr. Mcclure,
together with Inspectors Robinson and
Parsons. The report submitted to the
Commissioners states that there are
many defects to be remedied in order
that the sources of pollution be removed
The lack of fresh air outlets, the opportu-
mites for using over again the inner air,
and defective fixtures, with imperfect
flushing and ventilating appliances, con-
stitute the main sources of danger
The condition of some of the water
closetsis referred to rs simply abominable.
The fouled atmosphere resulting from de
fective drainage must of necessity find
its way into the Railways. The report
concludes:
I'm short, the plumbing and drainage
work of the building needs thorough
overhauling, the water supply should be
increased and every possible barrier
should be erected to prevent the use of
any portion of inner air for heating pur-
poses. This building being under con
troll of the United States, am unable to
take the action to be desired and which
would be promptly taken were it the
property of a private individual"

The Cnnnibals of Guam.

EDITOR CRITIC: The dispatch going the
rounds telling Of a 16 year old lads escape
from the canuibals OF Guam, where he had
been captured and was being fattened for a
human feast, is amazing. There are no can
nibals at Guam, l,0l0 miles from Philippine
Islands, but that boy was liar enough to com
pensate for the deficiency.
Guam is one of the oldest towns on the ISL
aud OF the same name in civilized Polynesia.
1t is owned by Spain and is now governed by
few Castilano gentlemen. The harbor of
Guam. being safe and eommodious. makes it
favorite PLACE for whalers to touch at and
supplies of sweetpotatoes, yams, cocoanuts,
t-f.ie-.ss.-e0ats are obtained in great ahup7
dance. There are houses In Guam hun
dred years old built by Europeans. One of
the plcasantest days OF my life was spent on
this pleasant island off there in the Pacific
Ocean.
Most school-boys will remember Guam in
the Ladrone Islands. Anson's Voyages tells
all about this archipelago and is instructive
reading. 1t is not so much for geography or
for the reputation of the island that this was
written, but in defense of the shipmaster on
whom Is cast the reflection of brutal treatmen
by widespread kilograms put on foot by heed
less young scapegraces.

GRACE sMALLwOOp's DEAD BABY.
"Did She KIN It?"- The Question Before
the Jury.

"Did She XIII It?" The Question Before
the Jury.
Grace Smallwood Is black, misshapen
and vicious-looking. She looks like the
ogress in the fairy tales. Her counsel,
Judge Walker, is hammered, gray
whiskered and pleasant-faced old South
ern gentleman. The contrast was strik
ing. The crime with which the woman
was charged in court this morning is
murder in one of its most horrible forms.
In Hope Alley between ID and Il and
Thirteenth and Fourteenth streets, she
became n mother on the afternoon of Sep
tcmbcr last, and the Indictment charges
her with having stranglcd the child.
Messrs. Lipscomb and Mullowney rep
resented the Government, the latter max
ing the opening to the jury. Mr. Lips.
comb stated that he would not make the
inquiry of the jury as to scruples about
capital punishment for the reason that
even If technical verdict Of murder was
rendered, the Government would never
allow it to so TO execution If any influence
with the Executive could prevent it.
The following jury was sworn: John
Bury, Edward Cooley, John III. Russell,
George r. Sheriff, Arthur Burt, William
Heinc, Charles f. Nelson, ir, George
r. Barnes, G. w. Klopinger, John a.
Peters, John c. Baum and w. f. !.
Eaton.
The testimony for the Government
was that the infant was found on an ash
pile with shoestring about its neck,
and that she owned it as hers.
For the defense it was shown that she
was woman of weak intellect but she
knows right from wrong.
