ED. STANDARD:
DEAR SIR I'm your interview with
!. me few days ago on the subject Of
Economical % reform in the county
Offices, which appeared in the columns
of the STANDARD last week, you un.
Intentionally erred in one particular
to which would most respectfully
call your attention, and that was in
reference 10 the work in the Probate
department of this Office not being up
to date. In justice to my deputy and
myself I have to say that the work in
that department has been thoroughly
performed and is complete to date ;
but the idea wished to convey for
the benefit OF your readers was, that
for want of necessary assistance In
the Superior Court department many
minor duties have had to be lett un-
performed principally owing to the
Tact that our legislators in their in.
scrutable wisdom have seen fit to pile
on unnecessary work on the County
Clerk, until they have made him q
veritable Pooh Bah as far as his duties
are concerned, and instead of being
simply q Clerk of the Court az in
former times, he 10 now everything
else that can be imagined in the cata.
CORY of public officers, and should he
fail to perform all these duties his
name would soon become Dennis"
Trusting you will give this space in
your columns, / am very respectfully
yours, w. ID. ROBERTS,
County Clerk.

The street preacher promises to tel
his hearers, tomorrow evening, where
hell is located and its dimensions
lie has somewhat anticipated this by
distributing among the crowd his
tracts and printed leaflets. BY one
OF these we are told that hell is inside
OF our earth and that it comprises a
lake OF fire and birthstone, etc, that
this lake is 5000 miles across, and
quite sufficient to hold all the wicked
who may be consigned to that dreary
abode.
In this discourse he declares that
hell is a d" literal lake of fire and brim.
stone," thus taking his hearers back to
all the horrors of the old school of
gospel preaching. Large crowds line
the streets every evening to hear the
strange ntterances calculated by this
cranky individual. He asks no nav
and allows no collections to be taken,
as lie says Salvation is free to every
man, woman and child.
The present age or dispensation, &C.
cording to his theory, closes the year
1899. Three and a half years before
that date. however, Christ is to
descend in the clouds, the saints are
to come forth from their graves and
the righteous living are to be caught
up in the air with those who are risen
from their graves. This means, of
course, that all who are living at the
coming of Christ, if they duly repent
OF their sins need not and will not ex-
perience natural death of the body
but, sin q moment, in the twinkling
of an eye, at the last trump" they
shall be changed.
1t is not little strange that the
continued failure of all modern
prophets in their predictions as TO
the end of the world should not at
last crush the ambition OF their sue
cessOrs and allow a short respite to
the people. The failure of each sue
cessive predicter, however, seems but
to arouse the spirit OF Biblical divina-
ton and . fresh seer comes to the
front with a new theory of his own,
revised and corrected to within
circulating decimal of absolute Ger.
tainty. When shall VIC hear the last
of these things?

THE EUROPEAN VAUDEvILLEs.-One
of the most unique and enjoyable
entertainments of the season was that
given by this company, headed by
Mrs. Alice ]. Shaw, the whistling
prima donna, at Olympia Theater,
Wednesday night. The entertain
ment opened with marvellous feats OF
strength by Prof. Lorenzo, among
which was the elevation of dumb.bells
weighing 500 pounds, and the break
ing of solid rock with blow from his
bare fist. Then followed an operate
duet, by the De Forest sisters, both OF
whom are charming vocalists. One of
the principal features was the imita.
ton OF prominent men of all nations
by Sigfried. His makeup was won.
derful and the rapidity with which he
could change from one TO the other, in
full view of the audience, was marvel
lous. Dolph and Susie Levine di.
vided the honors with the other per-
formers in their novelty entertain.
ment, "The Rival Arts" introducing
vocal and instrumental solos and
duets, accompanied ON the harp.
Dolph's lightning execution of por-
traits of we'll known people, while
Susie eulogized them in song, was q
wonderful performance, to say the
least. After short intermission, the
star of the evening, Mrs. Shaw, made
her appearance and held her audience,
entranced by the beautiful melody of
her novel accomplishment. Her notes
were as mellow a. those of the flute,
and she performed the most difficult
passages OF operate composition with
an ease and accuracy that challenged
admiration. She was all that had
been claimed for her, and her mag
nificent presence rounded out to per-
lection her artistic work. She after
wards gave selections with xither &C.
compartment by Hirschorn, in which
the ability of both performers was
amply demonstrated. The attend
ance was good. considering the times.
and the audience embraced many Of
our prominent people.

lis duties as Councilman-at-L Large.
While but little business was trans.
acted, it was OF great importance, es-
pecially the report OF the joint COM
mittee of the Board OF Trade and City
Council, in relation to the harbor i'm
proyement.
The committee in its report stated
that it had found upon investigation
that the cost to the city Of the bulk
head, brush and labor necessary as a
preparatory movement toward making
> permanent roadway OF the Westside
bridge, would be about So 600, provided
the United States engineer will direct
the contractor to place the material
excavated for the harbOr improvement
under the bridge, without additional
cost to the city. "In view OF these
facts" save the committee, eve have
no hesitancy in recommending the
Improvement, rs We Cohsiuci ~ q soAu-
en- opportunity"
The report was adopted unanimous
ly.
Captain Symonds has consented to
assist the city in building the perma-
nent roadway by having the excavated
material deposited where required.
The settlement on the part of the
city with Mr.. and Mrs. George Talcott
for damages by grading Eastside street
was before the Council. By the agree
ment, the city releases and cancels all
taxes against lot l, in block to, OF
Swans addition, on the special assess
ment rolls for the grading and gravel
ing of Eastside street, upon which said
property ADULTS. in consideration for
which Mr.. and Mrs. Talcott releases

AN EXCELLENT HOTEL

Olympian.
Its excellent accommodations, large,
light, airy rooms, q good table and
moderate charges are the features
which bring the Jefferson Hotel into
favor, both as place for the transient
traveller and a permanent abode for
those who choose hotel life in prefer
ence to private homes. The house
was built by the late Mr.. Farquhar,
and no convenience for the comfort of
guests was overlooked. The interior
is finished in hard oil, and an air Of
neatnese and cleanliness at once gives
y favorable impression.
On the first floor one finds IA sleep
ing apartments, double and single, a
large Office, toilet rooms, stationary
vashstands with hot and cold water,
land we'll cared for bath rooms, which
are at the disposal of guests, without
charge.
The dining room is large, and
cheerful and the kitchen arrangements
are of the most modern type, TO meet
the demands of q we'll patrOnized ho-
tel.
Wide and nicely csrpeted stairways
lead to the second floor from either
end of the hallway and on this floor
are twenty-three rooms, double and
single neatly furnished and we'll ven.
tilated. In fact happy feature OF
the hotel is that it does not contain
any but outside rooms and thus avoids
the close, musty atmosphere which
often prevails in hotels otherwise con-
structed. There 10 also nicely FUR
nished parlor, the halls are neatly
carpeted and many little conveniences
add to the comfort Of the guests.
The third floor contains rooms SIM
liar in arrangement to those on the
floor below, and throughout the house
the impression is one of the prevailing
comfort and favor.
Mr.. Stringer. the lessee, has success
fully conducted the house in keeping
with the demands of the day and has
placed his charges Ut such rates that
the guest is not only satisfied but
pleased to such an extent that he not
bnly returns himself but speaks word
for the house to his travelling friend.
The rates are from 81 To - per day,
with special rates by the week or
month.
"Some hotels" said Mr.. Stringer ad-
vertise special rates for families and
theater people, but the Jefferson gives
reduced rates to everybody"
