DoNovAN's OPPOSITION FUTILE,
Said to Have Opposed NeilI's Appoint.
ment as State Lard Agent.

SNsA w ~HPVoOO SNVsu UHRVVHk'
ment as State Lard Agent.
It is an open secret that the reap
pointment of Henry Neil as state land
agent was made in the face of the op.
position Of the attorney general and
that official voted against confirmation
at the meeting of the board of state
land commissioners, says the Record
The delay in making the re-appoint-
ment is believed to be due to the at
torrey generals persistent efforts to
secure the appointment of man of
his own choice.
There has not been harmony be-
tween Mr.. Neill and Mr.. Donovan at
any time since the present admins
tration entered Office. Donovan has
constantly harried Mr.. Neill in the
selection of land for the state, for the
latter would no sooner begin work in
county than Donovan would make a
motion at the board meeting to have
selections stopped in that county.
Then the state land agent would have
o move on to another county before
he had completed the selection of the
tracts he had his eye on as desirable.
Then the attorney general would
take a rest from his pursuit of the
gamblers by making little independ-
ent Investigations of the affairs of the
and department. He would send up
requests to have certain of the rec
ords Of the Office taken down to his
Office. On such occasions he has been
invited upstairs to examine the rec
ords in their proper place. This hurt
his official dignity and he would try
% get even by making things unpleas-
ant for Mr.. Neill.
His efforts to control the patronage
of the land Office have not been con-
spiciously successful. The lltlle
| scheme he triea with the cooperation
Of Lieutenant Governor Frank G..
Higgins to work in their own two
men as deputy land agents in the alb
sence of the governor and secretary
Of state was foiled and C. A. Whipple
carried off the prize. Now his plots
against Mr.. Neill have failed and he
finds himself in a steady minority of
one on all questions on which he
starts controversy.

ANOTHER FIRE.
Anc ther TenderIoin Mansion Was
Destroyed This Morning.

Anc ther TenderIoin Mansion Was
Destroyed This Morning.
The Inhabitants of the bad lands
are certainly having plenty of excite
ment these days, or nights, rather.
Two fires in three days located with
in a block of each other, is enough to
make them have bad dreams. This
morning about 4:30 the fire depart
ment was called to Second avenue
west and Fourth street, where fire
had been discovered in a house for
merly occupied by some colored wo-
men. The former tenants left town
last night on one of the trains and at
the time of the fire the house was
tenantless, but was furnished. When
the fire was discovered great vol
ume of smoke was pouring from doors
and windows and it was reported tha'
the inmates had been suffocated. The
fear was dispelled, however, when it
was learned that the people who had
lived there had left town.
AS the building was a frame one
the names spread rapidly and soon
the entire structure was mass Of
fire. When the water was turned
on the firemen made short work OF
the blaze.
It is supposed that this fire was also
of an incendiary origin, as at the
time the flames broke out there was
no one in the house, and from the time
the former inmates left until the fire
was discovered, sufficient time had
elapsed for any fire they may have
left, to either die out or to have
caught earlier in the night.

Arsenic in Beer.

A recent letter from London corrc-
spondent told us how the scare IN Eng
land about arsenic in beer had done more
for the cause Of sobriety in week or TWO
than the combined efforts OF all the tenn
perance societies in a number OF years.
There is nothing surprising in this state
nent, in view of the evidence gwen al
some Of the coroners' lnquests upon VIC
tins of the poisonous liquor, and pub
lished broadcast in the newspapers: One
of the professors of University college,
Liverpool, testified the other day, that ne
had made calculation of the total amount
of arsenic found by the inspectors of the
local Government board in the course ol
their investigations during period o.
skirty weeks. The result was mass OF
rather more than four tons. or 800 pounds
for each week, enough to kill some millions
of people, ii divided into equal doses and
administered at once. Figures like these
appeal to the duilest sense, and it Is likely
to be a long time before the great body OF
beer.drinkers recover their Old confidence
in the national tipple. The full extent OF
the scare and its consequences Will not DC
known until the report OF the Royal Com.
mission is published, but some of the facts
already made public by Government in
spectors are sufficiently striking. In Man
chester alone there were 1900 cases OF ar
senical poisoning. and at least thirty;;slx
deaths. Some Of the patients confessed u $ Ito to
having been in the habit Of drinking lrli two sG
s Up to daily consumption Of only gallon
or so. As might have been expected, the
brewers draymen suffered coGspicuously,
in spite of the fact that the human .sys;;
to to- absorb considerable quantities of the
