st. Louia Determined That Wires Shall Go
Underground.

ST. LOUIS, June 13-The St Louis sub
way commission has completed its iabors
and the chairman is now preparing to
report on the two ordinances arranged
for submission to the municipal assem- bly,
at its next n Meeting.
The ordinance prepared by the COM
mission which will be commended for
passage, declares that the safety of the
lives and property of the citizens require
that the net work of wires now strung
overhead in the streets of the city should
be placed underground
1t provides for the construction of SUBJ
ways, authorizing the city to become
lessee to operate the same. and sublct
ducts. As provided in the ordinance, all
tho overhead wires in the district bound
ed by Cass avenue, Choteau avenue, the
levee and Twenty second street will be
placed under ground.

able to start in business on his own ac-
count He became contractor and built
houses, roads and street railways, and
now at the age of 81 he is a millionaire
and one Of the most solid and respected
citizens OF that beautiful town. Mr..
Nevins' father was a farmer in the
County Meath, and as a youth he titled
the soil within sight of the towers of
the baronial castle of Lord Killeen.
However high his ambition scared, it is
doubtful if the Irish lad had ever dream
ed that in the future he should be the
owner OF that princely dwelling, but
such he was destined to become.
Kiileen castle is about 20 miles from
the city of Dublin and is rot far from
the famous hill of Tara. The building
covers 900 square feet of ground, and
the estate comprises about 1900 acres
There is not a tenant on the land. The
castle was originally erected in the
eleventh century and is supposed to be
one Of the Oldest inhabited residences in
the queens domains belonging to a
subject. History says that King John,
signer of the Magma Charter, ON one Of
his visits to Ireland, lived at Killeen
castle, and that portion in which he re-
sided is still known as King John s
tower.
Mr.. Nevins began negotiations for
the purchase of Killeen castle more
than year ago. Learning that the es-
tate was to be sold, he wrote to the Earl
of F1ngall, and correspondence was
begun which resulted in an offer Of
$500, 900 by Mr.. Nevins This was ac-
copied, and next November he will
come into possession. The old castle
has two drawing rooms, each 80 by %;
two dining rooms, one 40 by "a, and 20
bedrooms, with dressing rooms at
tached.

MunseIl, the Noted Bookmaker, Runs
Away With Betters' Money.
New YORK, June 13.-Col. Munsell,
the well known bookmaker who has
made books on eastern and western race
tracks for the past five years under the
name of Munsell & Co., has disappeared
and there are a number of New York
and Chicago sports who hold winning
tickets on the winter book he made on
the Brooklyn handicap who would like
to know where he is.
Munsell is known to have taken in
number of bets from western people and
the fact that he had disappeared became
known when the express companies
which were entrusted with tickets to
cash by people in the west had to report
back that they had been unable to find
Munsell.
The amount of money Munsell stood to
win or lose on the Brooklyn handicap is
not known, but it is thought to have been
away up in the thousands, as he handled
a number of heavy western commissions.
If Munsell has gone to stay he has car
ried away with him thousands of dollars
which was to have been wagered on the
suburban handicap.
