runs the restaurant he could afford It.
The feast began at five o'clock in the
afternoon, before the christening,
and continued until daylight. Sam Moy,
the king of China town, acted as toast
master. But the priest, who presided
at the christening at the joss house,
was a greater man.
The joss house says the ChicagoAmer-
can, is at 319 Clark street. Its hideOuS
carved gods are hidden IN a back room
on the second floor. Five hundred of
their deVOteeS bowed before them
when the ceremonies began at nine
o'clock. The priest, garbed in flow
ing robes, led them with young Hong
Wong in his arms.
When the first prayers had been
mumbled the official barber came and
blocked out on the baby's head the spot
where the queue, when he should be big
enough to have one, should grow.
Every inch Of the infants head, save
one tiny spot in the middle, was shaven
smooth.
The mother of Hong Wong was
barred from the christening. In her
place a female relative bore the child,
in a gorgeous baby dress Of red silk, up
to the sanctuary Of the joss and an
nOunced that the name of the mite
would be Hong Wong.
At this Moy Sing began a protest, in
sisting that no child of his should go
through life with a name like that. He
kept up his clamOr until several rela-
tives locked him up in the back room
and let the christening go on. Moy
Sing did not care much, for it was all
part Of the ritual

CHINESE CHRISTENING.
Amid Din OF Tom ToAs and with
Quaint Ceremonies.

Hong Wong, son Of Moy Sing Wong,
was christsned at the Chicago joss
house amid the din Of tom toms and
fiddles, with the quaint and curious GER
emonies Of the Celestial people.
Moy Sing, proud father of the five
weeks-old, afterwards stood host q t the
Nun Fong Low restaurant TO all the
prominent citizens Of the Chinese quar-
ter, and provided for them a feast Of
native dainties that would have cost

GAS COMPANY FORFEITS
$1,000 WILL BE DEDUCTED FOR
NOT INSTALLING POWER.

Bids were opened for three new vault
tables, for the register of deeds office
at the meeting of the joint court house
and city hall commission yesterday after
noon. The successful bidder was the
McGill- Warner company, whose price
was $780, The only competitor was the
Diebold Safe and Lock company, which
bid $l35
It was resolved to deduct the sum OF
$1,000 year from the bill Of the gas
company In consideration of the contract
made with the company to that effect in
regard to the installation of electric
power for the elevators in the court
house. The power; has not yet been
turned on, but everything has been in
readiness since Nov 49, at which time
the company was formally notified.
The November salary list of the custo-
dian, amounting to s1,766 .33, was ordered
paid, and the account of the joint COM
mittee, 500, was also ordered paid The
custodian reported that one of the ele-
yator operators, John Connol1ey, had fall
ed to report for duty yesterday morning,
and as a result one of the elevators could
not be run during the forenoon. The
report was referred back to the custodian
with power tos act. There was some
talk of taking speremptory action. but 1t
was decided to give the operator a chance
to make an excuse. Several members Of
the board expressed themselves to the ef-
feet that there were, too many elevator
men around the building.

new COURT HOUSE WALK
PRESENT ONE MAY CAUSE DAMAGE
SUIT ANY DAY.

In point of cost, the stone sidewalk
around the city hall and court house is
the most expensive in the city, but low
places at several of the entrances in which
has accumulated considerable ice, COM
stitute an element of danger that is now
engrossing the attention of the COM
mission in charge
The walk is constructed Of a very fine
grade of sandstone. which under the eff
fects OF much use has been ground into
hollow5 in number Of places more es-
pecially on the Wabasha street side.
These, filed with ice, are constant
menace to the city in the shape of law
suits.
Commissioner Hunt says he has been
informed by a contractor that if the com,
mission will tear up the walk and sup
plant it with cement blocks similar to
the walks laid through the lawn, the
city will be the better off by fully $1,000.
He says the stone is excellent for build
ing purposes, and it could be sold for
more than enough to pay for cement
walk.

be ard of control for burial under the con-
tract with the county undertaken.
An examination of the city offices, with
the exception of the city engineers office,
proved all to be in good shape, the work
being we'll done and the best interests
OF the city properly looked after.
The Abstract office TangIe.
This committee reported as follows:
We found matters in the abstract Office
somewhat in bad order but this is now
being ramedied as fast as possible. Since
the office was placed on a fee basis last
January, 1T has been allowed to run down
until the business has dwindled to a small
amount. The present abstract clerk, who
was appointed about Oct Is, and who is
a good abstraeter, has kept up the books
from that date, but former incumbents
left them in such deplorable condition
that the county board has had to make
an appropriation to pay for bringing en-
tries up to date, and this work is now
being done. We believe the abstract Office
to be an Important office which should
be kept up. AS has been rightly said,
/ 1t is the Office that stands between the
poor man and the real estate shark.
Treasurer's and AUDITORS Offices.
The investigation showed that the
treasurer,s Office was In excellent shape,
and the committee commended the treas
urer warmly for the faithful perform
arce of his duties and found that he had
guarded the money intrusted to him in
proper manner. It was suggested that
duplicate record of the affairs of the
office be kept
The report shows that since the discov-
cry of crooked dealings in the auditors
Office the system has been changed SO
as to make the chance of cheating the
county almost an impossibility. A proper
check is kept upon the work In eonnec-
ton With refundment and redemption or
ders, and the office is in good condition.
It is suggested that the auditor keep an
account upon his, ledger called County
| Treasurer's Current Tax Account" and
another, "A Delinquent Tax Account
The County: Commission.
In connection with the overdrawing OF
funds, the report says:
1t appears that these funds VIII be IN
the same deplorable condition at the end
of twelve months, If not worse. Upon
the entire amount overdrawn,s -aggregat-
ing $116,O0o, the county is paying per
cent interest. We recommend that if the
law does not provide that no appropria-
tons can be made by the county commits
sioners unless the money is actually on
hand, that the law be amended so as
to make such provision, that the next tax
levy contain an appropriation sufficient to
wipe out the deficiency in these funds.
The committee believes that it would
be to the county's advantage to employ
an expert accountant to check up and
verify and compare the accounts, vouch-
ers, warrants etc, and it is also ssug
gested that the accountant could look
after the records Of the city in the same
manner.
The laek4.of ventilation in the court
house is mentioned by the COMMITTEES AMI
it is proposed that a ventilatingsand heat
ing engineer be employed to look after
this feature properly. It is further sug-
gested that an estimate sofsethe cost of
puttingsin a fan system be made.

AS TO COST OF SEWERS
MATERIAL IS NOT HIGHER, BUT
LABOR Is.

There is no getting around the fact"
said City Engineer Claussen yesterday,
that sewer construction costs US moro
than it did year ago. Labor. I know,
has increased in price, in that it Is hard
to obtain good workmen, but with the
prices of sewer pipeI am not conversant.
Market fluctuations in that material are
not inquired into when the estimates are
made in this Office. and consequently /
am not In position to say what the in
crease in price is or t4.at there has been
an Increase
1T is not fact that sewer pipe costs

TRIO DRAWS ELEVEN YEARS.
Evans, Cartney and Fay Sentenced

Evans, Cartney and Fay Sentenced
to saltwater.
r. G. Evans five years, William ray
four years and William CARNEY two
years in the state prison, were Tile
sentences imposed by Judge Bum yester-
day upon the trio of confidence men in
connection with the attempted swfndle
of August Northrup out Of $65.
Evans said that the prosecution in his
case had been a personal matter rather
than for state reasons. He stated that
he had never been charged with a. crime
before, although the police are in pos
been arrested number of times.
Fay asked the court for leniency on
account of his wife and two small chill
dren, but the court told him that he
did not think it was a case for leniency,
and the court could not be lenient even
if so disposed. CARNEY, the one who
pleaded guilty, had nothing at all to say.
He received the lightest sentence of the
trio, while Evans received the heaviest.
He is regarded as the brain and the lead
er Of the outfit.
Judge Bum will hear arguments for
new trials at a special term of the court,
Dec. q, at which time Judge Hamer will
be present to present the arguments in
the case.
Both Mrs. Fay and Mrs. Evans were in
the court room when sentence was pass
ed and both wept openly, Mrs. Evans be-
ing particularly demonstrative when SEN
tence was imposed upon her husband.
