DR.. Fh. Graceiux de Maillot was yester-
day appointed by the board of public works
as city veterinary surgeon, having been
recommended by Chief Hale. of the fire
department. DIR. Maillot is so recently
from France that his language smacks
strongly "of the French, Frenchy,' SO
when his citizenship was challenged by
Member Baer. he said: '.Zat ees all right.
1 mabee can't-what you call-vote, but I
can cure ze horse. What you want more?"
This being also Judge McDougal's opinion,
DR.. Maillot was duly qualified as veter-
mary surgeon to doctor the city horses in
French, receiving fee per horse.

Superintendent Longwell, of the water
works department has not yet made out a
list of his employees who work more than
eight hours a day, as required by con-
current resolution recently adopted by the
lower house of the city council. He is
waiting for the resolution to be acted upon
by the upper house. He says that all the
men working at the pumping stations are
on duty twelve hours a day, and that, if
the eight hour ordinance is enforced, it
will necessitate the employment of three
shifts instead of two as now. Alderman
Jewell yesterday called the attention of
the board of public works to the fact that
there was such an ordinance in existence,
but that it was observed by only that class
of city employees employed at the city hall.
He said that if the ordanince was a good
one, it ought to be enforced. and if not it
ought to be repealed. The board took the
matter under advisement.

For your Protection. n.-Catarrh "Cures" or
Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not
a blood disease, caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, there
suits of catalrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay
inflammation and heal the membrale. Ely's
Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for
these troubles and contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug. Price, so cents.

HANNA'S GOLD SYNDICATE
Evidence That Money is Being Freely
Used to Debauch POpuliSt
Convention.
DISREPUTABLE DELEGATES PURCHASED
Happily Most of the Populists Are I'm
purchasable and an Endorsement of
Bryan and Sewall Seems As
sured-Wall st. Methods.

New York, July 20.-A special to the
Denver Republican from here says: The
delegates to the Popnist convention
from New York city and several districts
up the state, who held meeting Thurs
day night, by vote of to 1, decided to
vote for the Endorsement of Bryan and
Sewall at their convention in St. Louis.
At the meeting it was said that while
aof@e sssthese are honest in their belief
that this is the course to pursue, others,
it is asserted, have been "approached"
and experienced change of heart cor
responding to the size of the "roll" that
caused the conversion. This matter was
touched upon lightly in the meeting. One
delegate was asked if he was going to st.
Louis, and replied that he would go if he
had to walk. He announced his intention
to support Bryan and, DR.. j. NJ. Nc
Callum, one of the delegates t-large, an
ardent supporter of Bryan, remarked that
"you needn't walk if you will agree to
vote for separate candidate. The gold
people will see that your expenses are
paid and balance besides"
This significant remark was discussed
informally by the delegates among them
selves. DR.. McCallum, when seen to-day,
said: "The same people, who forced a
gold plank ON the Republican convention
and bought delegates from the south, are
now after the Populist convention. They
desire the nomination of their candidate.
They are neither Republicans nor Demo-
,rats. They are gold men. They have
been sent out to buy delegates to the
Populist convention and are succeeding.
The work is done automatically, how
sver, while at the Republican convention
they made no secret.

able to raise sufficient money to attend
The convention who are now urging

nave money and are going to St. Louis.

PAY OF THE REGISTRARS.
The Cost of the Registration FOots
Up $500.

The registrars, who conducted the re-
cent registration can now call at the city
treasurer's office and receive the pay for
their work. The remuneration allowed by
council is the same as that allowed two
years ago, IS per diem, and forty registrars
at IS per day each, for four days, makes
a total of $780, which the city must pay
out for the registration alone. In addl-
ton to this there is the rent of places of
registration printing Of registration books
and other expenses. which will run the
cost of registration to at least $500 more.
The election will cost $500 or $500 more
These are under estimates, and If the city
gets out at these figures, 1t will be doing
well. Elections are expensive luxuries.
The registrars are indebted to Clerk OF
