EVER since the Board OF Elections
has existed, until now, the printing
has been given to Democrat,
There never before arose a question
as to who had the say in the matter.
No Republican register or assistants
were permitted to have any saw in
the matter, and the work was given
out as the Department of Elections
directed. Now the Department for
the first time in years, is in the con-
troll of the Republicans and the

the rights Of the Democratic assist

the lists. The Registrars are the
onl y officers who have q right to
order these lists printed, and that is
what they will do.
The Levy Court had the right, If
it deemed proper, to pass the reso-
luton that no bills for printing
would be paid unless marked O. X.
by the Registrar. There is no use
kicking about the matter now that
the Republicans are doing what the

SLEPT IN
A STBEPLE.

1t was discovered on Tuesday last
that man is living in the
steeple of Calvary Baptist Church at
Fourth and French streets.
The old church building was re-
Gently purchased by Booker, Scott
d Moore Company, the well known
candy firm.
The building is to be remodeled
and work is to be done. by a con-
tractor
On Tuesday workman made an
examination of the church in order
. to ascertain just what work would
have to be done.
After making an examination of
the lower part of the church he de-
cided to take a look about in the
steeple. which is reached by means
of a ladder and on ascending the
tower the man found it to be very
dark, at the top of the ladder there
is a small room, and while
cropping abont in the darkness the
workman accidentally stumbled
over a body.
The first thought of the workman
was that perhaps someone had ac-
cidentally met their death in the
lonely spot.
He beat hasty retreat but later
returned with candle and much
surprised when he saw a man lying
on the floor enjoying a good sleep.
The sleeper was awakened by the
light, and calmly surveyed the bear
er of the light, who in turn stared
at the occupant in wonder. Meth
er spoke, and the investigator left
the steeple loft and notified his
employer. Another examination of
the loft was made, and apparently
the occupant was absent and has
not been at home since the discov-
cry.
1t is believed that the steeple
dweller is one BILLY" Baldwin, a
well-known character about town.
According to the statement of "a
policeman, Baldwin has been sleep
ing in the church for sometime.
