Discussed by tho Electric Light Commits.
sion Last NIght-Ths Bridge Contrnc,
Approved.
Tho first matter that came up before
the electric light commission last night
was the question OF paying the Fort
Wayne company portion OF the cost
OF the construction OF tho electric light
plant. The company asked for S2l 600.
Having half the material on the ground
and having done half the labor, the
company, according to contract, was
entitled to % per cent OF tn. cost
OF construction, which demand was
granted by the commission.
The cap stones OF the building the
contractors had refused to furnish, and
Mr.. Secley was instructed to procure
them and have them charged up to the
contractors.
The question raised at n former meet
ing, MS TO whether the Wheeling Min
ing and Manufacturing Company was
compelled blythe contract TO build the
foundations of the dynamos, came up
again. Mr.. D. r. Brooks, representing
the company, claimed that the dynamo
foundations were not in the plans fur
nished him. Mr.. ]. D. Ewing, who
represented City Solicitor Riley in his
absence, refused to give his opinion OF
tho legal aspect OF the case, as he had
never seen the contract before. AS the
contract contained n provision allowing
the commission to order any work done
which the contractor refused to do. Mr.
Ewing advised the commission to have
the work done and charged to the
Wheeling Mining and Manufacturing
Company. and the question rs to
whether Mr.. Brooks was right in his
conception OF the meaning OF tho con-
tract and specifications could be de-
termined later.
ARCHITECT FRASZHEIMs TESTIMONY
was rather favorable to Mr.. Brooks, it
appearing that no plans had been fur
nishcd the contractor, and that the
words dynamo foundations" in the
specifications was mistake, and III
tended for Skating foundations. a
lSsOlNtlON Ill NSIcCIllcIIL WIN vi. ~"
ing's suggestion was adopted.
Engineer Seelcy reported that nine
car loads OF machinery for the power
house had arrived; that three had been
unioaded, and there being no room Tor
storage at the gas works, the Fort
Wayne company wanted the city to
furnish it. The commission was OF the
opinion that the company should
store its own goods, and resolution
was adopted instructing the secretary
OF the commission to rent storage room
and charge the cost to the contracting
company.
Architect Franzheim reported having
been in Cleveland, and that he was in
formed by the Vandoren construction
company that one shipment had been
made and that the manufacture OF the
rest OF the structural iron work would
be fastened. 4 resolution was passed
notifying the company that the build
ing was now ready Tor the roof, and to
ship the material Immediately.
Several members OF the commission
had come to the conclusion that GER
tain lights already located should be
changed to more convenient locations,
and the following changes We're or

PAYMENT FOR LEVFE WORK.
Trouble Over n Number of Bills Before
the SuDerYiSoI.S

IL
the Supervisors.
Supervisor Bates has for long time
enjoyed the reputation of being the
kicker of the Board Of Supervisors.
But he has been superseded Mr.. Jen-
kins, one Of the new members of the
board, is Mr.. Bates successor.
Mr.. Jenkins was modest and dffident
during the first couple of sessions of the
board since his incumbency, but now,
that the rough corners have been worn
OFT, he comes boldly to the front. Like
the Mr.. Bates of yore, Mr.. Jenkins now
kicks" whenever an opportunity pre-
sents itself-and somtimes even when one
does not.
During yesterdays session of the
board a number of bills for the payment
of farm hands and others, who We're en-
ployed by the Supervisors to raise temp
Orary levees in the vicinity of Sutterville
during the recent high water, came up
for payment. Chairman Greer stated
that he had, in accordance with the in
strUctions of the board, put the men to
work, and they had labored five nights
and two days.
Mr.. Jenkins did not propose to vote
for the payment of the bills for various
reasons. He did not know whether or
not the men had worked five nights and
two days, as they said, and did not seem
TO believe that they had. Besides, he
thought the city should stand some of the
expense.
Mr.. Greer stated that the .affidavits
accompanying the bills were signed by
as honorable men as lived in Sacramento
County, and he knew they would not
certify to the claims if the men had not
worked the full time set forth in the bills.
With reference TO the suggestion that the
city should assist in defraying the ex-
pense, Mr.. Greer said it had been under
stood right along that the Trustees would
stand half of the expense.
But still Mr.. jenkins was not satisfied.
and after kicking" for some time he was
cut off by the roll-call. OF course Mr..
Jenkins voted no" but all the others
voted for the payment of the bills.
The bills for this work amounted origi-
nally to over 81 100, but those of land
owners were rejected by the board, so that
the bills as passed by the board yesterday
footed up to $500.

MORE ROOM FOR PATIENTS.
Plans for the New Building on the
County Hospital Grounds.
DR.. White Gives Some Facts and Fig
ureS on the Increase of the
INDECENT Sick.

DIR. G. A. White, Superintendent of the
County Hospital, exhibited to the MEM
bers of the Board of Supervisors yester-
day plans and specifications for the pro-
posed new wing for the hospital, which
he had prepared in accordance with in
structions given by the board.
The new structure viii be 100 feet long
by "A feet wide, and will cost in the
neighborhood Of $1,000. It will be a
three-story affair, each floor constituting
one ward suitable for the accommodation
of twenty five patients, making room for
about seventyfive in all. According to
the doctors plans there will be three cells,
one of them padded for violent cases, for
insane patients on the first floor. There
are no suitable accommodations for this
class Of patients now.
AS it was finance day the board took
no action in the matter, but probably
Will to-day or tomorrow.
DR.. WHITE TALKS.
Dr.. White showed the plans to
RECORD-UNIoN reporter, and in speak
ing with reference to the projected addi-
tional building said:
During the March session of the
Board Of Supervisors | appeared before
that body and advised that additional
space be provided for the accommodate
ton the INDECENT sick Of this county.
| recommended that detached wing
be built upon the grounds of the
County Hospital-tO be two stories in
hight, with high basement, virtually a
three-StOry building-with provision for
the temporary care Of such of the insane
as may be sent to the hospital by the
Commissioners of Lunacy. In support
of my position that we are in need of an
additional building at the hospital I made
use Of the following figures, detailing the
number of patients admitted into our
hospital during the last ten years. The
marked increase during the past three
years is apparent. In 1884 we admitted
697; in 1885, go: in 1856, III; in 1887, 63S; in
1883, 725; in 1883, $40; in 1890, 97l, and in
1891, 9G7. The increase during the last
two years was more than 40 per cent.
greater than the first two years reported
MUST BE GROWING.
Furthermore, eight or ten years ago $50
to 175 was considered an extraordinary
number to be in the hospital during the
the season when the building is crowded,
say from November 1st to April Ist Now
we consider 200 as the usual number. and
even 800 has not been unusual for a dav or
two at a time during the past winter.
The present hospital has seven wards de-
voted to the use of men and two wards
for women and children. We seldom
have more than twenty women, and say,
five children. Yet it requires two wards
for their use, and we cannot crowd them
into one ward.
The remaining seven wards must then
be overcrOwded with the men-designed
TO hold twenty men they were this win
ter crowded with twenty-five and as high
as thirty-two to the ward. Such over
crOwCling of the sick is not creditabIa TO
say the least. Since we are called upon to
provide for so many, the time has come
when we must provide greater accommo-
dations, as our present facilities for the
proper care OF so many sick are obviously
inadeQuate.v

The testimony given yesterday put
quite different aspect on the affair. A

Because he can appreciate more. Art
study, therefore, as Emerson puts it,
gives strong evidence of something other
than animal in man, because true art,
says Morris, is divine and human, and
art is quality even in simplicity. Art
knowledge is an agency wholly elevating
and therefore its universal language is a
force for the betterment of all conditions.
Our people cannot be degraded by culti-
walton of the love for the graceful, har-
monious, beautiful and orderly; and that
refining love, art study in any true form
intensifies and makes intelligent. So
that, as Mr.. Sdmson so well expressed it
in his address in 1888, "Art's place and
function is not alone in galleries and
parks, but in the homes and fresides of
ALL"
1t ought to be made an essential in the
education of children as much as read
ing. Every boy ought to be able, no matter
what vocation he chooses, in some degree
to intelligently and express him
self in the reproduction or creation of
form. In the
