a Bessemer, Mich, special says the
Holiday case is completed. The jury
went out at $3.50 and returned three quar-
tiers of an hour later with verdict of
guilty. Holiday was then sentenced to
life imprisonment at hard labor. The
prisoner broke down and seemed crazed
when the foreman of the jury announced
the verdict. The attorneys for the defense
will make an effort to secure new trial.

The cigarette is miserable apology
for manly pleasure. Nothing shall
ever induce us to believe that man who
really likes tobacco for tobacco's sake
prefers cigarettes. And the proof of this
is that the more precious the cigarette is
the less pure, invariably, is the tobacco.
We do not want to enter into the endless
controversies rs to what the "loading"
really is, or into the other endless fight
about cigarette smokers throat" But
If any one with some faculty of taste and
smell will enter (the only way of judg-
ing) room where some few whiffs of
any fashionable brand of cigarette have
been smoked, himself fasting from to-
bacco, he will perceive at once that the
flavor and odor are of tobacco plus
something. Never mind what the some
thing is; it is there. It is not the smell
or the taste of the very best Turkish to-
bacco (such as makers would have us
believe is used smoked in clean pipe
by itself. tits not the smell of any other
kind of tobacco mingled with it. The
perfume and flavor of, say, the best gold
en- leaf smoked in q pipe, or the best
Havana cigars, or the best tobacco, and
cigars unadulterated of any other kind
and country, are different enough, but
they differ like the favor of different
wines-an distinct, but all vinous. The
flavor and odor of the cigarette, at least
the popular manufactured Turkish or
Egyptian cigarette 1--WE know, of course,
that vast quantities of ordinary Ameri-
can tobacco are smoked as cigarettes),
are, in great part, not those of tobacco
at all, but of something quite distinct
from, and added to, tobacco: and we
believe that all honest persons gifted
with discrimination will add that it is
u deleterious something's something
provocative of "head" and throat and
stimulative of a great desire 20 drink

approved March Is, 1889, authorizing the
improvement of the State Capitol grounds,
l was authorized by you to plan and super
intend certain improvements, which have
now been carried forward to that st9ge
where further personal supervision on my
part is no longer necessary. The grounds
have been raised by filling from the west
line of Twelfth street to Fifteenth street.
The aggregate amount of earth hauled in
from June 18th, when work commenced,
to October 10, 1899, when it was completed
and accepted, was 80, 12401 cubic yards.
The driveway east of the Capitol was
paved with bituminous rock on a concrete
| foundation and the old concrete work on
! the approaches to the Capitol from L and
| \ streets was covered with bituminous
| rock. Some repairing has also been done
| on the pavement in front of the Capitol.
New connections from the driveway in
| the rear of the Capitol with the drains
were made, and the position of many of
! the hydrants in the grounds was changed
( to suit the new arrangement of walks and
driveways and all hydrants were raised to
the new grade.
Il have planned all walks and driveways
! in the grounds with view to the establish
ment of graceful lines, of adaptation to the
/ work in the older portion of the grounds
and of convenience to the public.
| 1T is g well-recognized fact that passage
| for vehicles must be opened through the
| grounds at about Twelfth street, in order
| that heavy traffic on Eleventh street past
| the Capitol may be turned that way. This
requirement has been met by providing for
| the opening of Twelfth street and by ar
! ranging a second drive through the grounds
/ in a very direct line at Thirteenth street.

New Hampshire and Vermont, many of
the farmers have abandoned their farms
and given up agriculture, being unable to
compete with the more favored sections Of
the country. California can raise bread
stuffs, fruit and even vegetables and sell
them in these States for less than it would
cost the farmers TO raise them there. On
the other hand the growth of the man
ufacturing industries in the East is some
thing wonderful, hundreds of thousands of
people finding employment in the various
branches. He says that one can scarcely
conceive the pre- sperity of California when
once manufactures are established here as
in the East. The vast army of workers
will be fed on products raised at their very
doors, while those of the Atlantic States
must pay the additional cost of transporta-
ton. The doctor comes back more salts
fed than ever with his California home
though not insensible to the advantages of
the great manufacturing centers. He says
that 50 far the winter has been very open
one in the East, though there has been an
unusual amount of rain.

CAPITOL PARK.
ENGINEER GRUNsKY's PROPOSED PLAN
FOR IMPROVING IT.
Driveways and Walks, Interspersed with
Beautiful Lawns-Other I'm
provements Suggested.

If the eastern portion of the Capitol
Park, from Twelfth to Fifteenth streets,
should be improved and laid out after the
plan designed by Engineer Grunsky-as
it undoubtedly will bet should present g
very attractive appearance. The grounds
have been raised to a hight that will pre-
vent any water standing thereon, and when
covered with pretty lawns, with artistically
designed walks and driveways, they will
prove fine addition to the Park.
The services of Mr.. Grunsky, the we'll
known civil engineer, were secured by the
Capitol Commissioners to prepare plans for
laying out the grounds, and he completed
his task a few days ago. The result of his
labors is embodied in report which he has
filed with that body, accompanied by a
diagram OF his plan for improving the
grounds.
Outside the portion of the work assigned
to Mr.. Grunsky. other improvements will
probably be made, in regard to which he
has submitted some suggestions for the
consideration of the Board. These include
the proposed removal of the fences and
the gradingand improving of the lawns out
to the edge of the curbs of the sidewalk.
THE ENGINEERS PLANS.
In his report to the Capitol Commission
ers Mr.. Grunsky says: Under the Act

lies in theinsufficiency of the CITY main nov

lies in theinsuffciency of the city main now
connected with it, and of the main supply
pipe along Thirteenth street to the park.
The driveways ard walks, as soon as
they have become sufficiently compact to
permit of hauling heavy loads along them,
should be graveled with the cleanest gravel
obtainable at a reasonable cost. About
l 500 loads of gravel will be required for
the driveways and 500 loads for the walks,
and the work of grayeling should be done
early in the spring.
"In submitting this report I desire to
| draw your attention to the fact that the
beauty of the park would be greatly in
creased by removal of fences from around
it and from around residence property
| fronting on L. n and Fifteenth streets op-
posite the park. A request on the
part OF your Board TO property-owners
| to remove fences would no doubt in time
| bear good fruit, because the change to
no fences would be greatly to the advantage
| of property owners by adding to the beauty
of their lawns and gardens, and reducing
expenses, and they would all be glad to
avoid the fancied necessity of maintaining
them.
| when an estimate is made OF the
amount which should be appropriated to
complete the fence now around the front OF
\ the park, / suggest that the same De for the
| fence to the west line of Twelfth street
| only, and the same terminate there with an
/ appropriately cut ornamental stone.
The dollhouse in use on the grounds,
centrally located as it is, is an unsightly
! structure and an eyesore to the public. II
ought to be removed at once TO some point
| where in can be concealed under shrubbery
until provisions are made for the erection
of better building

EDS. RECORD. UNION: 1 have just been
informed that a committee of citizens in
tend to call on the Board Of Trustees on
next Monday and ask them to pass an
order condemning the two blocks lying be-
tween K and L, Twenty-sixth and Twenty
eighth streets in this city, and known as
the Suffer Fort property, for public park.
The committee also informs me that they
have the advice of the best legal talent in
the State that our Trustees can order this
done, and several lawyers have already
rendered their services in the matter free.
After this committee left Clinton L, White
called and gave me his unqualified opinion
that the Suffer property can be condemned
for park or any other use that the Trus-
tees may see fit to make of It; and he fur
Their rendered his legal service in the mat
ter of carrying it properly through the
Courts, free OF all costs to the city.
This is commendable on his part, but in
view of the promise made to me on last
Tuesday evening, by the agent of the prop
erty in this city, that he would surely
name price before the week ended, l
think it but just to him that we await this
time, then if the price is not named, pro-

About o'clock A. NJ on Thursday Mich,
olas Lellis, who sleeps in a room in the
rear of the Sierra Beer Hall, on K street
between Fifth and Sixth, was awakened
by noise in the barroom Thinking that
possibly one of the proprietors had come
in for something, he called to know if il
was he. Somebody answered Yes and
Lellis was about to 90 to sleep again, when
the light became suddenly brighter in the
barroom, and he concluded to investigate.
The door between the rooms was locked,
bnt he took hold of the knob, and as he
did so two men rushed out the front way.
When the proprietors opened the place
in the morning they found where the doors
had been pried open. There was about s.
IN silver behind the bar, but the thieves
were scared of before they saw it.
A DWELLING RAIDED
The family of James Prouty, who re-
sides at 1915 L street, left the house unoc-
cupied on Thursday while they attended
the unwilling OF the Stevens statue. Dur
ing their absence couple of fellows visited
the premises and were watched by two lit
tie children from a neighboring yard The
men assumed to be drunk when first seen
in the neighborhood, and the children
climbed tree to get out of their way.
While up in the tree the little ones saw
them enter Prouty's house, which they
took their time in ransacking. When the
family returned it was found that a silver
water pitcher, several articles of jewelry
and some money had been taken.
AND YET ANOTHER.
During Thursday night an attempt was
made TO pry open the doors of the Jumbo
Saloon, on Fifth street, between J and X,
but the burglars were probably driven off

The Change swindler Does Another Neat
Piece of Work.
The fellow who got $40 and handful OF
cigars from Koon Chung Lung on Thurs
day. for 81 greenbsck, made another and
equally as good trade with Sam King at
SIS K street the same day. He went into
the latter's place to buy q silk handkerchief
for fifty cents, rendering the same $50 bill
that had served him so proftably on
street. He objected to receiving so much
silver, and demanded back his $50 bill.
Then be changed his mind, concluded to
take the money and handed back 81 bill,
instead of the $50 one, and he got in re-
turn $40 so in money and a silk handKer-
chief.
That fellow is doing well in this country.
The probability is that he has swindled
several persons who are ashamed to ac-
knowledge it. He is described as about
five feet eight inches in hight, his weight
100 pounds, complexion and clothes dark,
and with dark mustache.
