RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED.

Notice has beer served upon the
by the warden Of the state pcnitcntiary
that the boilers in that institution are
worn out and utterly worthless and will
have to be Immediately replaced. This
rcquisition should by all means be re-
fcrred back to the honorable board Of
appraisers who only in June Of last year
foisted those boilers on the state. In
order to refresh the popular memory
the following official document may be
found of service:
To the Honorable Board Of Public Lands
and Buildings: Gentlemen-The appraisers
appointed by act Of legislature 1895 to APP
praise the property Ct the state penitentiary
contractor, w. II. Dorgan, located at the
state penitent.ary, and the value of the I'M

findings.
The papers herewith attached comprise in
ventory of property found, reports Of ex-
perts called in, architects estimate for con-
structing cells. value of the Stout invoice
and statements of contractor and eub-con-
tractors.
From the gross value of said Dorgan's
contract and property is deducted the esti-
mated cost Of constructing eighty cells, and
also the estimated value of the Stout in
voice. In estimating the value of the con-
tract the appraisers have left out entirely
the profits a~ccruing to Contractor Dorgan
for subletting; this item in itself far eN-
ceeds the entire amount of the award and
will check up over 100000 per year.
The appraisers have reached their findings
after careful consideration of all interests
and have endeavored to impartially discharge
their duties.
The appraisers find the state indebted to
w. H.. Dorgan in the sum of thirty-three
thousand four hundred and eight dollars

The accompanying inventory discloses
the fact that four boilers and settings
were charged up to the state ut S2,O25
and included with the other trumpery
in the award of S33, 4OS.0O to Dorgan.

penitentiary appraisers, who drew $500
apiece out of the state treasury for a
few hours work as their findings after
careful consideration of all interests in

Don't Call Him "Old Man. "

''Ichsbod, my boy, methought l heard you speak of your sire this morning as the old man. You are IS years of age, are you not? Jus. sol That is the age when callow youth has his first attack of the bighesd. You imagine at this mo ment that you know it all. observe by the cut of your trousers, and the angle Of your hat, aud the flavor of your breath, and the style of your tooth pick shoes, and the swagger of your walk that you are badly gone on yourself This is an error of youth which your uncle can over look, but 1t pains him sorely to hear you speak in terms of disrespect of one you should never mention save by the sacred name of father He may not be up to your style in the modern art of making fool of himself, but ten to one, he forgets more ia a week than you wiE ever know. He may not enjoy smoking gutter.snipes chopped fine, and enclosed in delicate tissue paper. but he has borne a good many hard knocks Tor your sake, and is entitled to all the reference your shallow brain can muster. By and by, after you are through knowing it all and begin to learn something, you will be ashamed to look in the glass, and won. der where the fool.killer kept himself when you were ripe for the sacrifice. And then, when the old man grows tired of the journey and stops to rest. and you fold his hands across his bosom and take last look at face grown beautiful m death, you wiil feel sting of regret that you ever spoke of him in SO grossly disrespectiul manner, and when yon hear other sprouts of imbecility using the language that so delighted you in the germinal period of manhood, you will feel like chasing them with sled stake and crushing their skull to see if there is any brain tissue on the inside" Lincoln Journal.

Bogus Engineers.

One of the greatest grievances of the engineering profession 10 that anyone, however inexperienced and incapable, can write after bis name the letters c. E., or the symbol M. K. Similarly, any. one can describe himself IS metallur. gist or a mining engineer without incur. ring any penalty. A recent writer has pointed out the absurdiiy ana injustice of the fact that the lawyer who gets his fees whether he wins or l.ssa bis case, and the doctor who budes his mistakes under ground, whild the engineer who errs buries himself, are protected hy a law which prevents unfair competition, while the engineering profession, hold
 ing, as is does, under its care millions of lives each day, is open to the responsible warfare of anyone who may choose to hang out sign, styling himself an en
 gineer, whether he poisons city win bad water or runs sausage machine
 In fact, the latter class of engineers bid fair to open the entire field, leaving the man of education and experience sunk al the bottom of an unclasslfable tumble of trades, with his birthright taken away from him, and undistinguishsbie from them excepting by the individual pre-. eminence he may conquer among his clients. The name of his occupation has
 been rendered meaningless The I-sti
 tuition of Civil Engineers in this country has tried to separate the sheep from the goats, but with very doubtful success. We will undertake to name many NJ.
