MRS ALICE ooPPinoeR DEAD.

Once more death has invaded the
family OF Secretary Blaine. The
eldest daughter, Mrs. Coppinger,
passed away on last Sunday. A few
days ago her life was despaIred Of,
but the dispatches from Washington
In the Sunday papers reported a
slight improvement in her condition
which gave room for hope.
Thi, makes the fourth afiiiction In
the Secretary's family since he re-
sumcd the portfolio OF state less than
year ago, and his sister had died
only short time before that. The
first summoned was his brother
whose home was on the Pacific coast.
A few weeks ago Mrs. Blalne's sister,
who had fol many years been a neigh
bor Of the family, was taken away,
and then came the terrible blow of
Walter Blalne's sudden and widely
lamentcd death. He was the son on
whom the Secretary leaned most, and
the blow WIS crushing. Hardly had
the eldest son been laid ut rest when
the eldest daughter was taken away.

man that hath seen aflllction." In

which seemed so congenml 10 him In
his younger days. lie leaves "a

and the strife Of faction, and as fol
rivalry there Is no room for that; OF

The melancholy news of the death
Of Mr.. Blaine's daughter, which came
over the wires a few days ago, is now
followed by the shocking intelligence
that the wife and daughter Of Secre-
tary Tracy were burned to death early
on Monday morning, together with
one of the servents in the family.
The secretary himself, another daugh-
ter and her children narrowly escaped
the same horrible fate. Beside of such
calamity an ordinary death seems a
small matter. The secretary of state
has lost his eldest son and his eldest
daughter within few weeks Of each
other by disease, but he must now
feel that his affection is light as COM
pared to that Of the Secretary of the
Navy. The bereavement of the Sc two
families will call forth universal
sympathy throughout our country.

THE WEST SIDE SPUR
Stirs Up Endless Oratory Before
the Committee on Streets.

the Committee on Streets.
The committee OH streets. which held
its regular meeting last evening, was
entertained by a number of eloquent
speeches made by property owners OH
the West side, who came before the
committee to favor and oppose the pro-
posed ordinance granting the Kansas
City road the right to build spur track.
The aldermen present were MeSSrS.
Flandrau, Sanborn, Minea, Costello,
Sullivan and Gehan. After the COM
mittee had changed the ordinance
brought up at the meeting OF
the last city council authorlZ-
ing the building of sewer on
East Seventh street at the expense of
the city, to read at the expense of the
property holders, chief of whom is Hon.
w. z. Murray, upon motion of Aid.
SanbOrn, Aid. Gehan proceeded to read
the Kansas City spur ordinance, which
was very long and provides for the lay
Ing of a spur track OIL the West side.
The chairman called upon the prop
erty owners present who were in favor
OF the proposed ordinance to state their
views.
A number of gentlemen. including
MesSrs. Vanish, Merrill and Logan,
and stated that the proposed track
would build up the fiat which could
only be used for manufacturing pur-
poses. and that without trackage no
factories could be erected. On the 9TH
IT hand a deputation, headed by Messrs.
Cavanagh. Crowley, Eaton, Bell
and Capehart. vigorously opposed the
proposed ordinance. They were anX-
lous to see the West side prosper, but
objected to Dakota avenue (South Wa
basha street.. being crossed by raIl-
road track. 1t would ruin the property
all around. Then followed a discussion
which became very personal, one Sue
accusing the other of being hirelingS of
the railroad, who in turn. accused their
opponents of WANT of patriotism.
Aid. Flandrau. Sanborn and Sullivan
put number of questions TO the coll
testing parties as to whether the track
could be built under the street instead
of over it.
On the motion of Aid. Minea the mat
ter was laiu over until the next meeting,
the committee to examine with the city
engineer as to the possibility of build
ing the proposed track under Dakota
avenue instead of over it.
An ordinance referred by the council
to the committee. granting lie Fauvre
eo lDeSlaurIerS peTmlSSlonto move three
frame buildings used as cornice shops,
situated on Wacouta and Sixth, to the
other corner Of the lot, went over, the
committee to meet on Monday and eX
anime the site of the proposed change.
Attorney =. ID. O'Brien appeared be-
fore the committee on behalf of Con-
! tractor Sweeney, who wished the eoun-
Gil to make him some allowance on his
contract for filling up Langford park.
Owing to the papers in the matter not
being produced, it was postponed until
the next meeting, the city engineer re-
porting OH it meanwhile.
