The mausoleum, which stands on a sloping
hill, 1875 feet in diameter, is one OF the most
imposing and expensive of its kind in this
country. 1t is built Of white marble, the
blocks of which are unusually clear and
large. 1t covers ground twenty-six feet
wide and twenty-six feet deep.
On the top is a large glass dome, on
which stands a symbol of eternal life. On
the four corners OF the roof are urns
wrought in imitation of guardian lights.
The mausoleum is entered through an Ionic
p%ortico. supported by eight marble Corin-
THAN columns. Broad marble steps lead up
to the entrance.
But beautiful as Is the exterior, it Is
nothing as compared with the inside, which
is constructed of Carrara and Tennessee
marble and Georgia and Vermont polished
granite. The varied colors of these stones
are tastefully blended.
When they entered the mausoleum the
visitors were conducted down a marble
stairway leading to an amphitheater with a
marble floor. Here are two mammoth sar-
cophagi, hewn out of solid Tennessee mar

vault, in which there are four more crypts.
On the main floor. which forms a bal
cony around the amphitheater and around
the two central sarcophagi meant for the
Judge and his wife, are ten additional
crypts.
They are lined with marble thing and
closed with heavy marble lids.
Two angels hewn out of Carrara marble
sit on the end of the marble railing sur
rounding the amphitheater. Their eyes rest
upon the sarcophagi, Above the entrance

welcome to my tomb" said Judge Colt
fried Kruger, smilingly, to the guests whom
he received in crowds in his new $3.50, 900
mausoleum in Fairmount cemetery, Newark,
reports the New York journal.
1t is tho custom in certain parts of New
Jersey for the old residents to take great
pride in the tombs in which they are to be
laid away some day. In some Bergen county
villages almost the sole amusement of the
farmers is that which they get out of their
r~iyalries in the erection Of maus0leums.
On Sundays in the summer they make pill
grimages to the cemeteries which have great
social significance.
Judge Kruger, however, easily has out
classed all rivalry in his vicinity in the
tombs line, and as he stood in the mauso-
leum and bowed to his guests he said
frankly that he felt a very proud man, in
deed. Architect Talklein, who built the
tomb, assisted him in doing the honors.

City Solicitor Wadsworth stated yesterday
that he did not believe it would hold water
for a moment. There was nothing in the
statutes, that he knew of, which prevented
the city from entering into contracts for
periods exceeding one year. The appropria-
tion ordinance is simply intended to regu-
late the city's expenditures for current eX-
penses so that they do not exceed the amount
appropriated at the commencement of the
fiscal year. In the matter of a contract, the
amount payable by the city for the year I'M
der such contract would be one Of
the amounts figured in the appropriation

CITY WINS THE FIRST ROUND
Judge Thornell Renders a Decision Sustain

MOVE IN THE ELECTRIC LIGHTING CASE
Ruling Practically knocks Dryer of
Chicago Out of Court-DetaiIs
of the Legal Pro-
ceedinSs.

The first important round in the %injunc-
tion proceedings brought by Erwin Dryer
of Chicago to restrain the city from en-
tering into an electric lighting contract
with Thomas Bowman has been decided in
favor of the municipality. Judge Thornell
of the district court handle down his rul-

murrer of the, city to Dry. ) petitii and

Judge Thornell held that the sustaining
or the city's demurrer was not in any man.
ner to be construed as affecting the pc
tition of the intervenor, Forrest Smith.
The city demurred to Dryers petition
on the grounds that he was not a resident
or a taxpayer of Council Bluffs and conse-
quently had no standing in court. 1t also
demurred on the general grounds that the
facts contained in Dryers petition did not
warrant the relief demanded by him. In
making his decision, Judge Thornell held
that a person making a bid as Dryer did
for the city lighting contract. has no right
of action in case his bid is not accepted
and the acceptance of another bid prac-
tically rejects his.
As the matter, now stands Dryer has the
privilege of amending his petition, but 1t
is not seen how he can do this. as the city's
contention that he was not a taxpayer nor
a resident were the principal grounds on
which the court sustained the demurrer and
he cannot come into court and now make
the plea that he is. Forrest Smith, how
ever, is still in court with his petition of
Intervention and until this is adjudicated
the city cannot take any action looking
toward entering into the contract with
Thomas Bowman.
