Haste Slowly at the

CONSIDERABLE BUSINESS TRANS
ACTED BY THE COMMITTEE.
More Complaints on Water Rates.
Filed Last Eyening-CounciIma
o,Meara Has a Bright Idea-Much
Activity in the Municipal Depart
ments-GeneraI Notes.

The time of the full completion OF the
joint city and county building is draw
ing near, but making haste slowly
seems to be the watchword. The tile
will have all been laid in the basement
corridors early in the coming week, az
ter. which the balance Of the onyx
wainscotting will be set. The slabs are
already, and it will require only few
days to fill up the. gaps along the stair
ways and in the second and third hall
ways. Within a week or ten days the
carpenter work in the basement will
be finished and all the marble steps re-
set. BY the time the skilled laborers
put on the finishing strokes, 1t Will be
only a few days more before the oilers
of the woodwork and artistic touches
of the brush on the iron stairs Will
reach the browning point.
1t is expected the electric switch
board will be in place and all the wire
and gas fixture connections tested and
accepted before the goth inst, and If
no mishap or unlooked-for delays oc-
cur, the entire building, from pit to
dome, will be fully complete and ready
to be brilliantly Illuminated through
out by Saturday, two weeks hence, at
the fullest.
No date has been set yet for the GER
emonies attendant upon the formal
opening of the public, million-dollar
palace, but the time will probably be
a few days before Christmas or during
the holiday week.
All the members of the joint building
committee, except Mayor Baskin, were
present at the regular weekly meeting
yesterday afternoon. Selectman Bam-
berger presided, and a considerable
amount of business, looking to the
early and satisfactory completion of
work in the Railways, was transacted.
The subcommittee appointed with
power to act in the matter of having
the deranged electric wiring remeded,
reported to the effect that they had
rejected the offer of J. w. Farrell &
Co, the contractor, to make good the
defects for the sum OF s275. The COM
mittee also reported that in ousting the
contractor, they had installed the Salt
Lake and Ogden Gas and Electric Light
company, with directions to proceed
with the relaying Of condemned wires
under the tile and marble flooring. The
latter are to do the work at actual cost
Of per diem labor, with an additional
compensation of So per day to Electro
clan Morehead for his services as super
intendent and inspector of the wiring.
The committees action was ratified
The matter of lighting the tunnel to
the boiler house and wires for charging
the battery connecting with the switch
board was referred to the sub-commit-
tee on electric light.
The matter Of putting in a drain for
condensed steam in the endorsement
was referred to the architect and sup
erintendent for report.

mended for payment. one-half each by

Engineer Johnson's heath.

On the l4th Of August Engineer
Howard Johnson was killed by being
thrown off his engine between Wads-
worth and Winnemucca. His widow,
Elizabeth Ann Johnson. brought suit In
the United States Circuit Court OF Me-
yada against the Southern Pacific
Company TO recover damages for the
loss Of her husband. On the trial it
vas shown that the accident was
mainly caused by the swinging and
rocking Of the locomotive. The jury
found a verdict in favor Of the widow,
and awarded her s25, 900 damages. OF
this sum $4,000 was RENTED as al
tentative to a new trial. The defend
ant company asked the Court to in
siruct the jury to find a verdict in its
favor for reasons given. This request
the Court denied, and from this an
appeal was taken by the company to
the United States Circuit Court OF APP
peals. The latter tribunal to-day re-
manded the case for a new trial, hold
ing that the Court below erred in not
giving the instructions asked for.

Cabin, In oeedwis Cssyes.
The people Of Eureka were shocked
last Tuesday morning. upon arising
from their slumbers, by the announce
ment that q man had committed sui.
eide by hanging. Coroner Lewis was
soon on hand and summoned a Jury,
who brought in q verdict in accord
ance with the facts.
The deceased had resided here for a
number Of years. and was known as
an industrious man. His occupation
was that Of a miner. but for two years
or more past he had beer. in i'll health
and was compelled to quit mining. He
had lately been employed in Ruby
Valley on q ranch, and came to town
about three weeks ago with q sum Of
money sufficient TO keep him comfort
ably through the winter. He had
often shown dependency, and fire.
quently talked about ending his life.
Last Monday night he gambled off the
largest portion Of his money. and did
not return to his cabin until the small
hours Of Tuesday morning. Just pre-
vious to his rash act, as report goes,
he had said that he had no friends
and would 60 right off and hang him
self, but no attention was paid to it.
Some baling rope that was found
close by his cabin bore evidence that
he had deliberately set about to carry
out his premeditated intention.
Shortly after daybreak on Tuesday
morning a neighbor went to the cabin
and found him suspended by a piece
OF baling rope around his neck to q
cedar pole in the roof, dead. 1t was a
horrible sight. He hung, as il stand
ing, with his left arm straight down
his side, and the forefngers Of his
right hand in q loop Of the rope, in
such a position az to suggest that the
poor fellow, at the last moment, had
tried to prevent strsngulation. His
left toes barely touched the ground,
and his right foot just rested on q
shovel blade that laid in an old Wheel
barrow upon the floor.
The deceased was q native OF Italy,
aged 80 years. The funeral. which wal
largely attended, took place on We'd
nesday from the residence OF his
brother, Joseph Franchi. the only near
relative he had hore, and who has the
sympathy Of 9 large circle Of his
friends.
