one day. At 9 O'Clock on Saturday night
Mary retired to bed after carefully blowing
out the gas About o'clock Sunday morn
ing Mr.. Udick became conscious of escaping
gas, and forced the door to the girls room
open. The girl was found lying in bed un-
conscious and the room filled with gas.
DR. Donan was at once summoned, and
applied proper restoratives. The girl re-
mained in an unconscious state until noon
yesterday, when she revived. The discov-

nick of time. Had half-hour more elapsed,
the girl would have been dead.

OPINIONS OF A LEADING ATTORNEY

Some interesting figures for the consider
alton of the Finance Committee and for
Councilmen, in connection with the appro-
priation ordinance, are found in a compari-
son of the estimated receipts of the city for
the past fiscal year and the actual receipts,
as shown by the books of the Controllers s
Office. The summing up OF the actual re-
ceipts in this form was completed on Satur-
day by the Controller for the use of the
Finance Committee. 1t shows that last
years committee overestihated the receipts
by $500, 499 a, and appropriated A,464,-
$50 81, when they had only $4, l04, 400 IL at
their disposal The difference between
these sums represents the deficiency
resulting from the error, and which must be
provided in this years estimates Part of
this will be covered by the s150:0O0 ad-
vanced by last years ordinance to provide
for contingencies arising from negative
court decision on curative legislation, but
fortunately it was not needed and will be
returned this year by the property holders
for whose benefit it was advanced.
