INTEREST
Will Be Paid On the City
 Warrants.

Councilman C. L. Andrews at the council last night said that an understanding should be arrived at regarding the transfer of school warrants drawn at such times as there was no money In the school fund. lt was usual elsewhere to present warrants drawn against public funds that were de- fieient of cash, to the treasurer and have them endorsed mot paid for the want of funds" Dating from thls endorsement the warrants would draw legal Interest until paid. While It Is not within the province of the city to efeate bonded ln' debtedness there was nothing In the creative law that woold preclude the elty from warrant indebtedness and for that reason he could not see why interest upon unpaid script W 'uId be Illegal. Holders of such warrants were often pushed to dls- pose of them before ttev could be paid by the treasurer, often at discount and were their warrants to draw interest they could be disposed of to much better advantage than otherwise. City Attorney Price said that the payment of Interest under such circumstance, would not be Illegal.

THE MARKET this morning was the
poorest of soy Saturday morning for a
long time. The cold weather had kept
most country people at home and from
the same cause buyers were exceedingly
scarce. Most people fill their larders at
present from grocery stores or wagons
wbic go from house to house and the
city market is destined to eventually
pass out of existence. Everything that
was formerly sold only in the market
house Can now be procured from street
nucksters and stores, and the present

years. 10 the olden time the scenes 10

BODY FoUND.-Esrly this morning
Chsrlea Schaier found the body OF q
oolored woman lying fsce-doWaWard 10
the dock q few feet north OF the slip oil
the old ferry steamer Virginia, near the
foot Of Fayette alley. The northwest
wind had blown most of the water out
of the dock and the body was virtually
beaohed The police were Ootihed and
upou examination the remains were
foupd 10 be those OF Susan Mason, wife
Of Henry Mason. Later Dr.. Purvis, the
coroner. WAS informed OF the discovery
of the body and he had 1t taken to Mr..
Wm, Demsine's undertaking establish
mept. where preparations were MADE
Cor holding 40 inquest.
The finding OF the body occasioned
considerable comment. The woman
had been missiOg since the 9TH OF De-
cember. She had been at Mount Yer
moo for some time previously cooking
for her husband, who bad been at WORK
there. They left for Alexandria on the
9Th and on the way here, or after their
arrival, they Engaged in quarrel and
che woman was assaulted by her bus
band. her hesd being cut severely. She
went to a doctor who rendered her
surgical assistance, and had been miss
iug from the time abe left the office.
Both the women and her husband
occasionally figured 10 the Police Court,
the result generally OF domestic To-
felicity. On one occasion Mason was
arrsiqned for malicious assault on
oolored woman named Celia Johnson
on Wilkes street. Mason was arrested
and according TO the testimony be
made the assault 10 fit Of jealousy
while she was 10 company with another
man. It appeared that he used q
boot as weapon, making she
uppers the handle and the heel
and sole the bludgeon. The woman
was unable to appear for q
day or two and whea she did her as
sailant was 6oed $40. In short time the
victim died, AID it YVES supposed ny
acme that her death was the result Of
the beating. The testimony OF the ply
SLOAN who attended her, however,
showed she was 8 victim of consump-
ton.
The inquest was not begun until four
O'Clock aud the verdict was not reached
until after the Gazette had gone 10

o, the authorities has been called to the
infractiou OF the law. and those inter-
estsd would do we'll to take heed and
act accordingly. There are always
some people who persist 10 shooting
game out OF season, while many ardent
sportsmen respect the law to the letter.
The latter clsss naturally become in-
censed when they see others pay no at
tention to statues which are Intended
to prevent the extinction Of the birds.
