In politics today" replied Vice presi-

some, but # so It Is found chiefly in
the large cities. Politics arc purer now

age OF churches and charities. Millions
are now spent In education where thous-

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
Attorney Flah.ry ct San Francisco Jumps
Into the RIVER.

''As crazy as a bedbug," said Officer
Nris last night as he locked San Fran
cisco attorney named FianertJ III the iron
cage OF the city bastile.
The Citizens in the neghborhood of the
river saw q man Of suspicious appearances
going towards the Second street bridge
last nigh: and their eyes followed him.
When he arrived on the bank of The river
he rolled up his sleeves mechanically and
made dive into the current. A couple of
men made haste to his assistanC, and
found him padding in about eight inches
of water, as the river is very shallow at
present. They rescued him without much
difficulty and turned him over to Officer
Ben Hatcher
He came down from Newton yesterday

rear platform of the train about Fifteenth
srteet while the cars were running at
speed of over twenty miles an hour. By
some mysterious means he wasn't hurt.
and getting disguised of attempts TO kill
himself on land he tried the water route.
at which he was equally unsuccessful.
Papers and letters in his pocket show
him to be al attorney. evidently of good
practice, as several letters are urging him
to come home to try important cases. Oae
of them shows that be has an important
case in the superior court which has been
post poned pending his return. He seems
to think that conspiracy exists to lynch
him, and every time he sees man he
runs away from him. The officers will
telegraph to San Francisco this morning

Hon Rodolph Hatfield, yesterday, shortly
after his return from Cheney, where he
went. on yesterday, in response to the re-
quest of the citizens there, in pursuance to
a retainer and employment of his firm in
the cases, both of the state and the defense
of the town council and officials, in the
quo warranto proceedings, instituted to
GUST them for failure to file statements OF
election expenses, under the provisions OF
the late law.
Mr.. Hatfield says the rumor about rails

the Judge for non-feasance OF office is sim

Gr. ca 'irman.
Your committee held meeting in this
room last evening and with it quite n
number OF the business men OF the city.
The question of building an auditorium
was discussed at length and in most
satisfactory manner. The general feeling
was that the city is in need of such a
building aud that action must at once be
taken for the erection of structure that
will meet all demands No specific plan
was agreed upon for securing the neces-
sary funds, nor was The style OF construc-
ton determined upon, except that the
should be for not less than 1900
people. With view of getting
this subject before the public in
y tangible form as speedily as posi-
BILE Messrs. Fred Bentley and Eckstein
were authorized to see if any aid could be
had from the city.
Messrs- Stewart and Wilson were di
ion of such building as needed and
Messrs Corbett. Allen and Kramer to de-
wise ways and means for securing the
needed money.
The above committees will report in
this room at p. m. on the 18th. Your
com mittee met this 1890 a. NJ. at the
Office of J. +. Howord and proceeded to
