The Mayor Still Objects to the Fireproof-
Roof Bill.
1t may be little premature at this time to
state what the Mayor will do with the pro-
posed order describing limits within which
nothing but fireproof roofing can be used,
but he is outspoken in his opposition to it,
aud intimates broadly that he will not ap-
prove it. True, the objections to its original
form, that all roofs must be metallic, can no
longer stand, as that clause has been modi-
fed so as to allow four kinds of freproof
material. but the Mayor thinks the district
il too large. Hundreds of persons with
moderate means still desire 10 build within
that district who cannot If this proposed law
goes into effect.
The difference in the cost Of the various
kinds of roofing has been estimated by the

LOOKING FOR wEEks
A Prisoner Arrested Here Makes Hi.
Escape IN Denver.

Deputy Marshal Carr yesterday Ie.
ceivcd a letter from Denver telling hun to
look out for }. j. Weeks. who, after a
daring effort, escaped from the custody of
a United States marshal at Denver.
Weeks was one of the two brothers ar
rested here last winter on the charge of
using the United States mail to defraud.
They were convicted in the United States
court at Denver, and were sentenced on
Monday to four wears Imprisonment in
the penitentiary. They were sentenced
along with a batch of other prisoners, and
were being taken down stairs to the jail
when j. j. Weeks made his break.
Deputy Marshals Brown and Belcher
had the prisoners in charge. When they
reached the corridor Marshal Brown
stopped to answer a question addressed
to him by one of the prisoners.
Just then Weeks threw a handful OF
red pepper into his eyes and then made
for a window at the end of the corridor.
Marshal Brown fired two shots at the
escaping prisoner, but owing to the pain
In his eyes failed to hit him. Weeks
jumped out of the window onto to the
roof of a cigar store and from there to the
ground and, although he was Immediately
pursued, succeeded in making his escape.
Deputy United States Marshal Belcher,
who was up here as a witness in the
Fillebrown trial, was helping Brown
guard the prisoners at the time Weeks
made lis escape. Weeks is so well
known here that if he succeeded in getting
away from Denver without beng captured
he will probably 20 in some other
direction.

The vitality of the mule is little short
of amazing. In Memphis one fell twenty
five feet down an opening in the street.
1t landed on its head and, the hole being
narrow, it was unable to change its posi-
ton. 1t was supposed that the beast had
broken its neck, as n sharp, clicking
noise was heard when it struck bottom.
After half an hour the mule was hoisted
out by the heels and laid on the ground.
1t showed no signs of life, but, notwith-
standing, it was given brandy literally,
and in a little while, to the surprise Of
the thousand spectators who had col
lected, the mule rose to its feet and
walked off as though nothing unusual

Captain A. II. Bowman. of the Ninth
Infantry, well known in this city, claims
that he has been swindled by Rene de
Montdore, a banker Of $40 Fifth avenue,
New York, and to back up his statement
he has had Mr.. Montdore arrested and
locked up. The captain states hat after
having read the brokers' advertisement in
a western paper he sent him two checks
aegregating to $1,000. which he was to
hold for him until his visit to New York
City. Montdore wrote hat he would
give him 6 per centinterest, but when the
captain called on his banker a couple of
weeks ago Mr.. Montdore said it was
usual for clients to give fifteen days no.
tice before demanding money deposited.
The captain waited fifteen days, but he
did not get his money then. The banker
explained to the judge before whom he
was arraiGned that the money had been
invested according to orders and lost. Mr..
Montdore was held for further examina
ton in default OF 81, 900 bail.

A peculiar and fatal accident occurred
recently to the seven-year-old son of Mr..
Tramal Carter, who lives four miles
north of town. The little fellow was in
the habit of driving the cows to pasture
every morning, and one morning after
he had eaten his breakfast he started off
with his cows as usual. About an hour
later a member of the family went in
search of him, and was Mortified to see
a cow dragging the almost lifeless body
over the field. The boy had tied the
cows tail around his neck, and the cow,
a gentle one, had become frightened and
ran off, dragging the little fellow with
her. The little fellow was released only
by cutting the cows tail. and was barely
alive.-Louisville Courier-Journal.

The state board OF equalization was IN
session Yesterday at the capitol listening
to the kicks Of the representatives of
railway corporations which do business in
the state. The Northwestern Railway
company is represented by Messrs.
Crandon and Haw!ey, the Union Pacific
by Messrs. Veale and Scribncr and the
Burlington by Mr.. Pollard. All of the
railroad representatives think that their
assessment is too high, but such a kick is
to be expected. The state assessment
roll will be about $40, 600, 900.
The state law limits for general purposes
the taxation to four mills, but there will
be several other mills added for special
purposes, authorized by legislative acts.

The interest among the horsemen ofthe
state in the fall meeting to be held here is
on the increase. Already they have sig
ni6ed their intention of entering about
fifty gallopers for the different races.
1t has been learned hat there are two
Roman chariots at Denver, and if thew
can be secured a chariot race with local
drivers will be one of the attractions for
the races.
The association is also thinking serious
ly of having a balloon ascension on one of
the days.
The numerous races for running horses
and the liberal purses offered will no doubt
make a success of the meeting.
