The board Of trustees met yesterday to
consider q proposition from William H.
English for the lease of tract Of sixty
acres of land along Eagle creek. which is
necessary for an outlet for o sewer. Tho
State Board Of Health served notice on the
trustees last fall that the present sewer ar
rangements were q public nuisance, and
must be abated. Nothing was done for
lack of funds. but at the last session of the
Legislature $1,000 was appropriated for
this purpose. The board has received an
offer for sixty.one acres, of which fifty-one
acres is said to be tillable garden land. at
S740 year. If the lease Is made for ten
years Mr.. English says he will knock off
500 for the first year. He owns land for q
mile on either size OF the creek, aud if the
lease is made there 10 no danger that there
will be more complaints of nuisance. The
board will close the ten-year contract,
though they think the terms are high.
There Is. however, no other outlet which
they can utilize. The land will be used
for gardening purposes In connection with
the hospital.

Trial of Lon Mcclure Begun fl the Criminal
Court Yesterday.
In the Criminal Court room yesterday
morning Lon Mcclure was plsced on trial
for the murder of his wife. Florence Nc
Clure. on the evening of Dec. 81. 1892. There
IL an extraordinarily large number of wit
nesses 90 be examined, and the trial of the
case will probably consume the entire
week. When court convened yesterday
morning there was considerable difficulty
experienced in finding q sufficient number
of Jurors who were not witnesses In the
case. The by-standers in the room were
called up and it developed that the greater
portion of shem had been subpenaed as
witnesses; then the bailiff went into the
corridors of the courthouse and invaded
the various county Offices in search of
competent jurors; finally he was compelled
to 90 upon the street before n jury accept
able to both sides was obtained.
At $50 o'clock the jury was impaneled
and sworn, and Prosecutor Hoffman. for
the State, made the opening statement OF
the case. The first witness for the prose-
cution was Mrs. Rebeccs Bryan, mother OF
the murdered woman. She testited to the
acts of Mcclure which led to q quarrel
between himself and her sons. It's said,
theory that, after this quarrel. Mcclure
said that he intended to lick the whole
Bryan family. 1t seems that the trouble
began on Christmas day. when Mcclure
came home, and, without provocation,
took from Mrs. Bryans hands q dish con-
tanning their turkey dinner and smashed 1t
against Q wall. he being intoxicated at the
the time. DIR. Carey testified as TO the
location of the wound and direction of the
ball GINS Bryan, brother of McClure's
wife, testified TO the happenings at the
Bryan home on Christmas day when Nc

DR. MORRISON is NOT IN IT
lie Would Not Be Superintendent of the
Central Hospital if 1t We're Offered.
nent Was DR.. Stone-Board of Trus-
tees Holds Meeting.

It is expected that the board of trustees
for the Central Hospital for the Insane
will appoint a superintendent to fill the
place of DE-. Wright. who died few weeks
ago. next Friday. There are large num-
Der of applicants for the position, but the
chances of success seem to be narrowed
down TO two of them, Drs. Morrison and
Stone. The former is the president of the
Board of Public Health for the city. and
one of the most favorably known of the
young physicians in the city, and the lat
ter Is q well-known practitioner.
DR.. Morrison has not been active
~ canvassing for the appointment, but it
has been underst ood that he would not be
averse TO accepting il If il were rendered
him. Yesterday he made the statement to
q representative of the Journal with the
request that it be published. that he would
even were it offered. When asked for his
reasons he said that while the position had
many advantages. he did not believe that
they were sufficient for him to give up his
private practice. That he said was his
only reason.
DR.. MorrIson's withdrawal was sur
prise to the few of his friends whom be &C
quainted with the fact. They refused to
believe that he was In earnest, and urged
him to reconsider his Intention, but he
would not do so. He will bend his energies
to obtain the appointments OF DIR. Eden
harter, of the City Hospital, who. up to the
present time has not been seriously thought
of in connection with the position. DR..
Edenharter says that he does not want it.
He says that the salary is not
a great deal larger than the one
which he 10 getting now, and that the re-
probabilities and duties of the position are
SO much greater that he does not care to
accept il. His friends, when told what he
says. mildly insist that he is talking
through his hat" and that he will more
than likely get the appointment. Morrl-
son and Edenharter were in consultation
nearly all of yesterday afternoon. and as
two heads are sometimes said to be better
than one. it is probable that they will
evolve q scheme which will be surprise
on next Friday.

terman were yesterday in consultation.

was made MP. FL have been trying" said
he, Ito sound Mr.. Carson. but he will not
say whom he is for. | doubt if he has made

THE HEART OF THE TREE.

An Ars}or Day Song by II. G. <Bunner.
What does he plant who plants a tree?
He plants a friend Of sun and sky;
he plants the flag of breezes free;
The shaft of beauty, towering high;
He plants u home to heaven anigh
For song and mOther-croon of bird
In hushed and happy twilight heard
The treble of heavens HARMONY
THESE things he plants who plants O tree
What does he plant who plants a tree?
He plants cool shade and tender rain,
And seed and bud of days to be,
And years that fade and flush again;
He plants the glory Of the plain;
He plants the forests heritage; Ii
The harvest of a coming age;
The joy that unborn eyes shall see
These things he plants who plants tree
& What does he plant who plants a tree?
He plants In sap and leaf and wood,
In slove of home and loyalty
And far-cast thought of civic good
His blessings on the neighborhood
Who in the hollow Of His hand
Holds all the growth of all our land,
A nations growth from seq to sea

The Bears Retreat.

Along Grizzly: Bear river, in the
Rockies, there are many bear haunts
OF wintering dens, which the Indian
guides point out to travellers. Ac-~
cording to Indian stories, bear will
lie in a dark and secluded retreat
all winter without food or nourish-
ment, sucking its paws. The bear
does not burrow in the ground, bnt;
covers himself with fallen leaves
Over the den the snow is often many
feet deep, and the BEARS hiding place
is only discovered by an air hole So
small that nothing but the keen eye
Of savage could find it. The In
dams say that the Rocky mountain
bear lie thus in a torpid sta te from
December until March.

Hutchinson, who has succeeded in OBJ

that the rapid percussion Of elastic

came to the conclusion that only by the

very carefully measured coils, and hav-
ing rheotome made of metallic rib
bon, which could be made to vibrate
very rapidly. BY means of tuning
forks he measured the number of Vi

not strong enough for the strain, and it
became necessary to make the metal
