fAVORS PAVING.
Hazeltine Has Sent Communication to
the City Engineer.

l.. S. Eazeltine, a photogra pher at
No. 433 South Arizona street, is in ia
for of paving still further down toward
the depots. He has sent a conmunica-
ton to City Engineer Bickenbach in
which he offers the council some sug-
gestions which probably never occurred
to that august assembly. He would
have Arizona street paved down as far
as Utah avenue, thus dispelling bad
impression which sets its imprint upon
the minds Of men who enter the city
via Arizona street-an impression which
forces the conclusion that Butte is a
dirty city. Mr.. Hazeltine suggests:
Il have not noticed anything about
paving Arizona street from Broadway
to Utah avenue or below. l am one of
the citizens who think it ought to be
done. I would willingly give 500 more
than my share. So many transients
come into town up on this street that
bad impression is formed of this
dirty city-travel from all the rail-
roads; more traffic upon this street
than any two streets outside of Park
and Main. And another thing, why
grade the street above the sidewalk, as
they are all along Arizona? Let all
sidewalks be six inches above the
street at least. I'll bet l can get sign
ers from all business people on this

PREACHER TO Be HANGED.
TEXAS COURT AFFTRNS DEATH
SENTENCE OF REV. MORRISON.
The End Of One of the Mast Remarka-
bic Murder Cases in the nistO-
w Of the Country.

The court of criminal appeals at Aus
tin !, ahirmed The death sentence of
Rev. &c rye E. Morrison, who murdered
HIS wife a few mon hs ago al Pan Handle
City, Tex By s'rychntne poison. This
is one OF the most remarkable murder
cases in the history of Texas. Morrison
was born and reared in Massachusetts,
and his father is pres ding elder of the
Methodist church in California. The
condemned man lived for some time in
that state and was married there to the
woman he poisoned. They removed to
Pan Handle City about four years ago,
and Morrison was placed in charge of
the Methodist congregation. He was
held in high esteem by the people, and
his domestic life was apparently happy.
A year or more ago Morrison went to
Kansas City to undergo medical treats
ment. While there he met young
woman who was one of his schoolmates
in his bOyhood aud to whom he had
been engaged before leaving his Massa-
chusetts home. Without telling the
woman of his wife in Texas he began
paying her attention. He told her that
be was a wealthy cattleman and had a
large ranch in Texas. He returned to
his wife in Pan Handle, City in a few
weeks and carried on correspond nce
' it'll his sweetheart, mailing his letters
from neighboriDg town.
1t is alleged in the statement of the
facts in the case that the convicted man
carefully planned the murder. He vait-

funeral Morrison left for Kansas CITY

WHY THE SOUTH Is POOR.
Exha;t from Speech by Judge
Robert Powell at Vicksburg,

Judge Robert Powell made a speech
lii Vlcksburg last week in the course
OF which he said: "The reason of our
poverty is not hard to find. Take our
average citizen. He gets up In the
morning and pulls on pair of socks
from Lynn, Mass. ; puts on pair of
shoes from Boston; a suit Of clothes
from Philadelphia; goes to his break
asst, draws up chair madein Chicago
and eats from table which came from
Cincinnati andsweetens his coffee from
Rio with sugar from Louisiana: takes
slice of ham cured in st. Louis. and
buffers biscuit of Minnesota -four
with 0eomargerine which came from
the Lord knows where; lie eats South
Carolina or Louisiana rice, and even
the very grits upon his table were
ground in some northern mill; he goes
to his stable and puts a set of harness
on a mule from Kentucky; bitches it
to wagon from Illinois, and drives
over to his neighbours and complains
of hard tunes. OF course times are
hard when everything people eat,
drink, wear and drive come from some
where else, and only the atmosphere
which he breathes is home institu
tony
Tie picture is little overdrawn by
Judge Powell, though it must be adj
mitted that there is much truth in
what he says. Conditions are improv
ing in the south, however, and our
people are gradually turning more to-
ward manufacturing enterprises and
learning the important lesson Of self
relIance.-Albany Herald.
