If all the public building bills intro
duced In this Congress were passed by
both houses of Congress and signed by
the President it would take S3O,OOO,OOO
of the government funds to foot the
bills. But the significant part of the
item is that from present appearances
the House Will not vote for a single
new public building at this session al
though there has been some talk OF
taking up few bills for localities
where the need is most pressing. The
House Committee on Public Buildings
and Grounds has considered only one
bill up to date, and that was not Tor a
new project, only for an appropriation
for a building that has already been
authorized.

Judge Palmer, OF Jasper county, has
rendered decision to the effect that
county commissioners have no legal
right to employ tax-ferrets to hunt up
sequestered or ommitted property and
report it for taxation. He holds that
this duty devolves upon public officers
as the sections of the revised statutes
giving commissioners this power were
repealed by the general tax law of 1891
and that the repeal of the law of 1881
in 1888 did not revive the old law.

The Lower House of Congress passed
a law few years ago authorizing each
member of the House to have private
secretary, for which there was 81 200
per year appropriated for the payment
of such help. The law did not say that
the member should hire, and did not
place the clerk so hired upon the regu-
lar payroll of the United States, but
left it to the congressman to pay their
clerks with this money. The practical
workings of this law is, that great
many Congressman do not hire these
private secretaries at all; others hire
and only pay one-halt of the amount
and the residue of the money which is
not paid for such clerkships goes to the
congressman, thus increasing their
salaries.

Those were the words which fixed
the fate of William Sutherhn at ten
minutes before O'Clock this afternoon.
The court room was filled 70 It's ut
most capacity when the prisoner was
brought into court. All eyes We're turn
I'd upon him and he appeared the uery-
lest man of the entire assembly.
The jury was ready with It's verdict
at :3J O'Clock but the Judge could not
reach the court room for fully twenty
minutes.
Bailltf NiEnedge escorted the jury to
their places IN the court room aud they
mad the appearance OF having hard
night of it. The verdict was handed to
the Judge, who read it slowly and dis
tinctly. Not a muscle twitched IN the
face of the prisoner and at first 1t was
hard to detect whether or not ne got off
as easily as he expected but in few
minutes his face turned deathly white
az he consulted his attorneys. The long
period of confinement fell upon him
with all its signilicance Neither the
| prisoner nor the attorneys were decided
whether or not to present mo-
ton for a new trial and the judge al
lowed them until tomorrow - decide
on that matter.
The sentence Is for twenty years but
by coed behavior he can reduce II to
about fourteen wears.
This means about the same IS life
sentence, for il IS not likely that ne VIII
live To the end of the term, as lis CON
stitution is not such as TO combat life
of confinement. \ physician who has
attended him informs that he is a con
sumptive and that the chances for a

good.

can be done has been done.

is settled ana settled for good.
