stitutional amendment that no person

committee on civil service reform.
The unfinished business was Mr..
Vests bill to construct postoffice
building in every town where the
postal receipts ranged from $1,000 to
$4,000 year. Mr.. Vest supported it
and said i: was to remedy the discrim-
iIation in favor of large cities. Mr..
Berry (Arkansas) opposed the bill be-
cause it would discriminate against
agricultural states and give other
portions of the United States undue ad-
vantage. Mr.. George, of Mississippi,
indorsed this view. Mr.. Villas. who,
when postmaster general, originated the
idea upon which the bill was based.

j. M. Hazen, building inspector of the city
of Minneapolis. has grievance against the
convention committee, the committee on

way in connection with the plans for the

ing inspector has been completely ignored
Building Inspector HazeE says:
1T looks to me as if Mr. Hayes and Mr.
Adler look upon this office as SO insignificant
and unimportant as compared with the ma
tional convention scheme that they will not
deem it necessary to see that a permit is Sc
cured before the work of remodellng Con-
vention hall is commenced. | have been
ignored most ungraciously by these peo-
Pile. They have not given me the least
recognizance, but 1 think they should
at least have asked my opinion as their
plans. However, intend to have my say in
this matter yet. If those people don't come
up and get permit, will compel them to
live up 10 The law. When they take out this
permit propose to see their plans. will
inspect them thoroughly. and if l see any
thing wrong with them intend to have the

Him in st. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, March 11.-Through a search be-
gun here today it was learned that Rev. S. B.
Warner of the Oxford NJ. E. church of St.
Paul. Minn.. has mysteriously disappeared.
His brother. Rev. H. E. Warner, of the
First Methodist church, of Colorado Springs,
Col, is here prosecuting the search, and has
learned that the missing man was i'll st.
Louis as late as Saturday last. Rev. B.
Warner left his home at ST. Paul
last week 10 go to Red Wing, Mimi.
to lecture. Since that time he has
not been seen, though traces have been
found. Rev. II. K. Warner was summoned
to ST. Paul by telegram sent by his brother
the day that he disappeared. Arriving
there he learned that Mrs Warner knew
nothing of his expected arrival, but was
much alarmed by her husbands dis
appearance. The search was begun
and the missing man traced to
st. Louis via Chicago. Here he had
sent telegram counteractng the one send
ing for his Colorado brother and a letter to
his wife. Since then he has not been seen,
but search is being made for him in this
city. 1t IS thought that bad health resulting
from oyerwork, coupled with the effects Of
an old accident, are responsible for the mys-
terious disappearance.
