paid the officers who sat at the diff

total of $444.20. This does not
include the expenses of delivering
the booths and other paraphernalia
and blanks made necessary by the
new law, nor does it include the

the election officers expenses are
not much greater than they were at
former elections. The figures for

He Saved the ChIId's Life.

The following from the Washington
Star refers to John Harrington, Of Ben
wood, who is employed in the postoffice
department, having been appointed un-
der the late Democratic administration:
Last evening about s o'clock on
Myrtle street, between North Capitol
and First streets northeast, little child
Just able to walk strayed away from the
one having it in charge, and in some
mysterious way slipped into the sewer.
A large crowd soon gathered. Some
began lighting matches to see where the
child was, others were looking around
for some barefooted boys to go down.
In the meantime Mr. John Harrington,
residing at No. 70 Myrtle street, came
down the street, and, not stopping TO
take of coat or shoes, pushed the crowd
away, lifted the top from the sewer and
going down into three feet OF water
brought the poor little one out. A few
seconds more and the child would have
been dead. For a moment every one
seemed to be paralyzed and no one knew
what TO do. The little one was appar-
emily dead. Mr.. Harrington exclaimed:
"Phy the divil don't you stand the
cLild on its. hid and lit the
water run out Of its MOUTH" This com
mand was obeyed and l firmly believe
saved the child's life. This Is not the
first brave act OF this old wounded G.

A Little Trouble Soon Remedied.

Richard Wynn, Of Wheeling, was a
city visitor over Sunday. In a CONVEX
sation with him, he said that rGmor
was prevalent in this city that some
trouble existed in the LaBelle pottery,
but that there was really nothing in it.
Some weeks ago the pottery firm had
mouds made for new shape of sugars
and teapots, sort of medium between
the round and square shape, and the
pressers thought they should be al
lowed extra pay for making them. The
firm would not give the advance asked
tor, and to avoid trouble, concluded TO
dispense with the new shapes, and the
old hands are again all at work as usual,
and no trouble exists.-LiUerpoOl Crisis.

THE MAIN ENTRANCE.

The workmen have about completed
the jailor's residence, except few
minor finishing touches, and it will soon
be ready to be fitted uD with furniture,
carpets, etc. In the front jail building,
designed for Offices, general reception
room for prisoners. and the general
transaction Of public business by the
Sheriff, TAILOR and his assistants, there
is very little to be done. Some OF the
plumbing is in place, and very little
CARPENTER work in the way OF finishing
and the same of painting and plaster
ing, will complete that portion OF the
building. The Bridge OF Signs, which
connects this part of the building with
the Court House, is also about
completed, and will be q
very great convenience in taking priS-
oners to aud from the Court rooms.
rooms. There will hereafter be no ne
cesSity for taking a man out on the
street after his first arrest and lOdg-
ment in jail, except when he is to go TO
the penitentiary, after conviction, If the
case is a felony, until the expiration of
his sentence. A winding and narrow
passage runs from one OF the apart
ments in the front jail building TO the
Bridge Of Signs proper, which is about
nine by fifteen feet in inside dimen-
sions, and has door opening directly
into the Court room Of Part Two. The
walls and ceiling are of heavy brick
work. and the floor OF flags, laid in ce-
ment in steel Orders, between which
brick arches are turned. This is the
STYLE of floor all through the jail build
ing. and every window and opening is
guarded by single or double sets Of steel
bars. while all communicating doors be-
tween apartments. all through the
house. are OF heavy smooth steel.
In the cell building workmen are put

ting up the metal ceiling under the
roof, and this work will be completed
In about ten days. The cells are all
ready, with the exception OF the hunks
and the locks upon the doors, while In
the two lower tiers the automatic lock-
ing apparatus is In place. This build
ing, which nowhere touches the exter-
nal building, is In Itself immensely
strong, but il prisoner was out OF 1t,
he would still be enclosed in building
which would, Of itself, be much more
secure than the average prison. The
iron gangways running along the sew
eral tiers Of cells are not yet in place,
and neither is the central platform and
stairway, giving access to the lower
floor Of the cell building, from the main
office, but it will not take long TO set
this work up.
Outside in the yard the stone wall
cutting of the jail yard from the yard
of the jailer's residence is completed
with the exception of turning the arch
at the south end, on the alley. Work
men yesterday were putting in drains in
the yard, and this work will soon be
completed. The new sewer in the alley
between the Court House and the jail
will also be completed this week. This
has been difficult job, on account OF
the treacherous nature OF the sandy
SOIL
A large force Of plasterers, laborers,
iron workers, carpenters and masons
are constantly employed, but as the
work approaches completion this force
will rapidly be diminished, and, as
stated at the outset, the work will be
practically completed at the end OF the
ensuing thirty days.
