So it is; he was right enough so far. It's
monumental work and cost more than million
dollars to get up. But there are spots on the
sun, you know, and there are defects even in the
Encyclopedia Britannica. Did ne mention to
you that you might look for Ulysses S. Grant
in it and not find word about him?
OF course he was, or pretty nearly so. But
the Encyclopedia Britannica doesn't mention
him for all that. And it doesn't say a word
about Sherman either, nor about Sheridan, nor
Hancock, nor Blaine, nor Cleveland, nor Harri-
son, nor Harriet Beecher Stowe, nor Julia Ward
Howe, nor Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, nor Chsrles

CITY FINANCES.
An Appropriation Wanted for
PeSthOuse.
Where Shall the Dreaded Institution Be Lo-
Gated l-The Luning Estate Cannot Be
Reassessed Legally.

The Finance Committee of the Board Of
Supervisors decided at its meeting yester-
dav. in response to the Information given
by Gas Inspe ctor Brown Of the extravagant
use Of gas in the Fire Department 10 COM
municate the facts to tile Fire Commits
sioners and the chief. and urge the neces-
sity of more stringent regulations in the
matter of gas consumption.
A communication was received from AS
SCISSOR Siebe stating that he required
S13,14 90 for extra assistance in his Office
1t was explained that the entire assessment
roll will be revised and equdlized, and of
course extra help will be needed. But
Chairman Ebert thought that not more
than $4,000 could be spared and the appro-
priation of that amount will be recon-
meuded.
Mr.. lie COUNT MAKES INQUIRY.
Joseph LIE Count Of lie Count Bros, sta
TONERS, who have bill against the city for
$4,000 for stationery, asked the committee
how it was that a bill of Phillips Bros, re-
Gently contracted, was paid, when their bill
could hot be DaiC.
Ebert explained that the supplies in ques-
ton were urgent uecessarles and PAID tor
out Of the Urgent Necessity Fund.
DR. RegensbrugeT OF the Board OF Health
and Health Onicer keeneY called on the
committee to ask for a sufficient appropria-
ton to build d pesthouse. and suggested
tlat such institution should be located near
the County Hospital. Indeed, there was no
good reason why il should not be made an
annex OF that building.
Supervisor Jackson Jumped on the5 pro-
position with both feet. lie thought pest
house should be located clear outside the
city limits If possible. No action was taken.
BEYOND CONTROL NOW.
City and County Attorney burst sub
mitted an opinion to the committee in rela-
ton to the assessments OF the Luning and
Fuller estates, which arose out of the cOntTo-
versy between Expert Dunn and the Asses
sOr.
Mr. burst was asked whether certificates
of deposit Of moneys in the Sub-Trea5ury
Of the United States or United states bonds
or notes are liable to taxation, and whether
the deposit 0I money in the Treasury within
thirty days prior TO the first Monday III
March could be held 10 be the transfer OF
property to eyade taxation.
He replied In substance that there Is no
municipal authority 10 assess money In the
Sub-Treasury, hence the Luning estate can
not be legally IeasSessed, the assessment
having gone beyond the control OF the City
Board Of Equalization and the Assessor

Supposed Relies Of Big Fight with
Terrible Slaughter.
A CoOkson (Nebr.) Special.
A queer find has bee made in Dakota,
about geventy-fve miles from this place, by
a party Of hunters who have been in that
section for the past month. The country
over which they have travelled is little used
except for cattle ranges, and the result is
that there are few people who pass over
that vicinity. The gentlemen who bring
the news OF the find say that they dscov-
cred an immense mound, which was COM
posed entirely of human bones. The bones
had evidently been there for many years
probably hundreds Of them, for the Indians
who live in that part Of the country say
that they know nothing of where they come
from except that their tribes have legends
that there was a. big fight there long time
ago, and great many people were killed.
The legend is that one tribe was COM
pletey annlhilated by another, and the
remnant Of the victorious tribe was COM
PEELED to Join another tribe ia order to keep
from being destroyed 10y the stronger ma
lions. The Indians do not know what
tribes INDUCED in the desperate fight, but
from the number Of bones to be found and
the size Of the mound there could not nave
been less than 10000 people killed and
buried in the mound. which IS fully fifty
yards In circumference. A peculiarly
about the place is that while there is not a
tree within fifty miles Of the mound there are
a lot OF ashes and cbarred wood 10 be found
all through the dirt which cOmposes the
mound. To make this fire either the wood
must have been carried fifty miles or else
the fire was butt so long ago that the whole
country has changed. and where there was
formerly trees growing IS now desolate
prairie.

The Say0ry divorce case has not been ended
by the reconciliation of the husband and
wife There is an aftermath OF trouble, to
which Attorney Collins, who was Mrs.
Sayoy's counsel, has fallen heir.
Collins few days ago fled a complaint
TO determine the ownership of S997 63.
which he drew out of the bank where il had
been deposited at Mrs. Say0ry's request.
Richard Say0ry filed his answer to the COM
plant yesterday, and AYERS that his wife
had d weak mind and that Collins took an
undue, fraudulent and uncomfortable adj
vantage or bis client and abused his position
as her professional adviser and counsel,
with intent to cheat her husband. He in
duced her to draw the money and then took
possession Of il, converting it 10 his own
use.
Savory further states that he has spent
his time and money In the pursuit of the
S69T and thar in addition to that sum he
should be reimbursed 10 the extent Of $500.
he therefore demands judgment for SI497,

a Dreadful Incident OF a Swell Dinner

Given in Washington.
According to a special to the st. fonis
Globe Democrat dreadful mishap occurred
a few days ago at luncheon given in
Washington by the wife of the richest man
in the United States Senate, which has
been much talked about in fashionable cir
cles The luncheon was one of series
given in the new dining-room which was
added last summer to the Senator's X. street
house and 'gorgeously decorated in white
and gold. The luncheon was by far the
most elegant ever given in Washington.
The flowers and fruits were brought from
the Pacific Coast. the wines were imported
and the viands were served on plates of
solid gold. The luncheon was an artistic
and gastrOn0mc triumph and greatly en-
lOyed by the ladies until as they were about
to arise an awful thing was discovered
The ladies noticed as they arose that their
gowns showed strange indispositiOn TO
part company with the white and gold arr
chairs on which they had been seated. AS
they looked at each other and began to ar
range their draperies what was their horror
to discover that each gown was decorated
with broad, broken stripes Of white paint
A chill OF dismay fell upon the company
followed by explanations of pain, SURPRISE
and disgust III tones varying with the tact

The wizard Edison looked at the aurora
borealis Saturday night and m0urned. He
has been watching the big spot on the sun
ever since it appeared, and ne has been
filled with regret. This is because the wind
has been playing nine-pinS up around his
big iron mine in Morris County and has
swept down his ring of big poles as fast as
he has put them up. Ii the wind had
minded its own business these past two
years, the people OF New York might now
be able TO drop a nickel in the slot and hear
the sun spot roar. They might even hear

The wizard has great faith in his tele-
phone to the sun. This telephone line,
which is to reproduce disturbance on the

winds and as soon as the snow is off the
