Police Pickings.

the hard times there was mo money in it.'

ten days. The same term of office will be
served by Bern kerns and Jack Ryan, the
latter having been picked up Sunday after
noon on lower Twenty fifth street in a
condition OF apparent lifelessness which
induced some unsophisticated passers- by
to think he was dead but it was only the
well known minor form.

neighborhood ought to present an ener-

these nuisances.
The police received word yesterday fore
noon that George Callahan, placed in the
Salt Lake jail for having robbed man of
a watch, had broken jail Sunday night.
This is the same dangerous fellow who
about two weeks ago was arrested in
Ogden by the Ogden authorities on a
charge of robbery.
Eight of the prisoners are put out to
work.
At present it is not thought desirable to
pick up every small-fry vagabond, as the
jail quarters are crowded to full capacity

able gentry will be made to vamoose at

the streets will require extensive labor.

Our Wonderful Resources.

Every day develops new and astonishing
surprises for those who have not for years
been acquainted with the countless and
~yaried resources which nature has scat
tered in profusion all around and even
under our very feet. The latest discovery
which is creating some excitement and at
Tacting the attention of men of mean S.
brains and enterprise is that of virtually
lnexhaustible deposits of clay and silica,
the very best materials for first-class por-
,elain and common pottery. Don Mcguire,
agentleman deeply interested in the mate
rial progress of the city which has long
been his home, and also well experienced
IN mining matters of divers kinds, claims
that the supply of the raw material for
porcelain ware, ip the manufacture of
which Ogden would practically have only
one competitor. way down in Ohio, would
be sufficient to furnish employment for a
4 thousand workmen who, with their fami-
lies, would constitute a considerable ac-
cesslon to our population.

The Winter in Midway.

From a private letter to gentleman OF

freak of nature known as the hot pots.

windstorm which swept disastrously
across the valley. The hurricane over

demolished that the lumber is hardly fit for

killed by the falling debris.
Like the rest of the country the people OF

almost spring-like weather succeeded
again by snow, though not cold.
With all these alterations of the
weather and the disturbances of the at

prejudicially. The bitters invigorate the

nerves and digestive organs, and so afford
lasting aid. 1t also affords dual assistance

A Disinterested Committee.

At the last meeting of the city council,
on motion of Blasdel, committee was in
structed to examine the foundations of the
Reed hotel with view of ascertaining
whether they are safe and sufficient to
withstand the pressure to be put upon
them. Possibly there was no harm in
doing that, and if the committee shall do
its work as instructed, calling to their aid
the assistance of disinterested persons, the
examination Will reveal just what Mr..
Reed and Architect Thompson, or what
any other capable and diSintereSted ar
chltect would have to admit, that the foot
lngs and foundations are ample for all re-
quired purposes. Blasdel is very OBJ
serving man and greatly interested in see
Ing that only solid and substantial founda-
lions are put in hotels and other large
buildings; hence his motion.
Now, as matter of fact, part of wall
on the outer edge of the sidewalk, four
feet distant from the foundation wall of
the hotel proper, caved in, owing to new
earth being placed against it and no weight
upon it to hold it down. The earth be
came wet, then frozen, and the thawing
caused it to swell and crowd the wall over
there not being, as stated above, any
weight upon it to hold it down. That wal
was not designed to bear the weight of any
part of the hotel Superstructure.
Again, one of the rear inside walls was
not constructed according to the architects
plans and directions, and over month age
the architect condemned them and the con
tractor received his instruction to tear il
| out and rebuild it as soon as the weather
would permit of the work being DONE
Another thing which the disintereste6
examining committee will, or may, ascer
tain IS the fact that foundations of botf
outside and inside walls of the hotel are
laid on foundation of concrete composed
of sand and cement, full carload of ce
ment being used for the purpose The
committee will further learn that the wall!
built upon this concrete foundation would
be perfectly safe, even if no mortar hat
been used in them, on account of the stone!
OF which they are constructed being flat
weight on top of the walls would serve tt
keep them in place.
Another thing that the disinterestet
committee can learn is fact that is not
generally known, namely, that the con
tractor was not entrusted with the putin.
IN Of the foundations for the basemen
walls of the hotel to suit his own ideas
that one of the best stonemasons in thi:
or any other country-a man who had beel
in the employ of Mr.. Thompson, the archi
tect, for more than four years-was pal,
extra by Mr.. Thompson to see that thu
contractor performed that foundation worl
in proper manner, and that he did this a
all times.
Finally, the committee, if they are per
fectly disinterested, will, after concluding
their examination and learning all tn
facts, report that there was really n
cause for the appointment of a special in
vestigating committee in this particula
case.

waking up to the fact that this city is being
heavily taxed for the support of certain
grade of schools that does not exist here,
and in return for which it receives ALSO

session passed a bill levyiDg tax for a
Grammar School Course Fund" designed
to maintain a high school coarse in all
country grammar schools, so that pupils
may be fitted for the University without
going elsewhere to take a high school course.
Such course does not exist in this city, and
yet large sum goes into the fund from
here. The main objection is that while it is
not nearly all used for the purposes in

and meanwhile all manner of economy has
to be practiced in San Francisco for lack of
money,
