Still Kicking.

The Douglas News is still complain ing about Judge Irwin not residing over there, and demands that Judge Brown shall "stand up" Some day Judge Brown will tell Brother Hopp to go way back and "set down" 1t seems that between the law that Judge Brown and Commissioner Irwin are both ad- ministering over there, the Douglas people would be satisfied, but if they are not, it might be we'll to have Tony Tubbs, at Treadwell, appointed to help out.-Junesu Miner.
 Hurrah for Tony! He's all right! And if the order of his appointment called for his residence in Douglas, he would have the honor and manhood to obey the law. We have no kick on Tony TubbS.

Ex-Confederates In Soldiers Home.

THE Southern men who object to the
proposition that eA-Confederate soldiers
be admitted to the soldiers home" says
the Philadelphia Record. advance rea-
sons in support of their objection that
should have due weight in determining
the question. 1t is a subject upon which
pretty speeches about the reconciliation
Of the Blue and Gray can be made, as
was done IN the House of Representative
last Tuesday by several zDemoeratic and
at least one Republican Consress1nan;
but those who believe that the assoc,a-
tion of Union and ex-Confederate veter-
ans In the homes would not be afforded
by the harmony that should nreral IN
such establishments probably caks COR
rect view.
IA refuge for the old soldiers Of The
South in homes supported by the Gov
eminent might be reasonably asked fer
by the people of that section, who a;e
contributing considerable part OF the
money that is layishly distributed in the.
form OF pensions, by which no Southern.
interest is benefited. An act ns congress
providing separate establishments f.,r tS-
confederates would be a new bond Of au1.

William H. Hoffmeister Ends His
Own Life.
RECORDER LEGION OF. HONOR
He Was Defeated for Reelection to the Office
and the Disappointment Was
More Than He Could
Bear.
(Br Associated Press.)

ST. LOUIS, MO, Jan. Civilian II.
Hoffmeister, ex-Supreme Recorder OF the
Legion OF Honor, committed suicide at
the planters Hotel to-day by shooting
himself.
The only witness to the suicide was
George M. Ashley. of Kansas Ciy. Dep
uty Coroner Boogher took charge of the
remains.
Mr.. Hoffmeister, was defeated last
night for reelection as Supreme Rc-
oorder Of the Legion OF Honor by c. T. Z.
White, and an entirely new supreme
council was elected after a sensational
contest One feature of the struggle was
the arrest of Otto "A. Overlook, candidate.
for Supreme ChanceGdor (the highest Of
fee in the order), and leader OF the oppo-
stion to the administration. Mr.. over
beck was arrested whlle on his way 10
the meeting where the election was to be
held.
ARRIVED IN TIME.
At the Four Courts q complaint was
lod ced against Mr. Overlook for carrying
a concealed weapon. Friends of the Over
beck ticket, however. procured Mr.. Over
| becl1's release on bond. and hurried with
him to the meeting hall, where they ar
rived in time to vote, his one vote being
| necessary to win. .s,s. s.5.es
Ackley, who says he was in an, adjon- :
ing bath room when the shot was fired,
expressed the belief that = HofEmeister
killed himself because he had been de-
feated in his candidacy for reelection.
"Hoffmeistcr was drinking last night.
said Ackley "and he told me there would
be trouble. knew he had revolver,
and I took it from him and locked it UP.
My own revolver was in my valise, anu
this he used to shoot himself"
George w. Teasdae, an intimate friend
Of the dead man, said:
"AIr. Hoffmeister's accounts were inves-
tigated recently by the Suprme Council,
and were found to be in good shape"
After hearing the testimony Of Messrs.
Ackey and Teasdalc, and S. I. Barnard,
the coroner rendered a verdict of suicide.

& Mr. John S. Avis will in all PROBABILITY
be 8. candidate for City Sergeant. AT.
Avis will not say positive as to MS en-
tering the race, but says he is .eenns nj. ms
wsy to do So The race for this Office
continues to get more and more interest
ing. and candidates who have heretofore
sieriffed their intention OF running are
making good Roadway and doing some
talking to their friends, which means that
the race will without doubt be the hottest
contested ever seen in the city. Inc
campaign for Mayor and commonwealth
Attorney will be Insignificant in COM
parison with the interest and the NUM-
her Of candidates for. sergeant. The
singular thing about it Is that before the
death OF Mr.. II. c. Furguson. the much
loved sergeant, no one had thought OF en-
terins the race. but since his death there
have been any number of men to take
the place.
Squire JORDAN has been beseized by his
numerous friends to come out for the
place, but has not as yet decided. Squire
Jordan is possibly one of the best known
men in the city. and but for promise
he mdde 10 one OF the candidates no" III
the field he would have announced HIM
self before now. Mr. Avis will make "a
good run. and in the course of this week
will have decided about the matter.
SMALL BOY HURT.
Vernon. the little son of Mr.. William
Archer, was painfully hurt this morning
by the explosion of a lot of toy caps
which he had In his pocket The little
fellow was playing In the house and IN
some manner struck the pocket in which
the caps were kept against O. table and
the explosion was instantaneous, knocking
him down, and burning him very badly
as well as blowing a part of his clothes
from him. DR.. Lawrence Ingram, the
family physician, was called in and mace
the little fellow as easy as possible.
PERSONALS AND BRIEFS.
Mr.. Everett Baugh was reported to pc
in sinking condition late last night.
Mr. Sam Nunnally, who has been so
sick for some time with appendicitis, is
fast improving.
Mr.. Ashton Adkins is now able to be
out after a weeks sickness.

Not Colonel Richardson's Fault.

In connection with numerous complaints
of the untidy condition OF the convention
hall, it is but Just to Register of the Land
Office Richardson to say that he has no
cantrol whatever over that portion OF the
Capitol during the session of the con-
yention. The convention, he says,
just as the Legislature. has its
special janitors and officers. who
supervise and attend to the cleaning,
busting and sweeping of that floor. Col
onel Richardson also says that instead of
getting more convicts auartered around
the Capitol grounds and basement, he has
always been opposed to any at all. and
would be glad 10 be allowed to have hon
est white men to take their places. 1t IS
beyond his control to make the change.
He says there is no economy anyway IN
having negro convicts. and he has re-
peatedly kicked against the custom with
out any good results.

Wet Weather WearableS
Waiting.

Wednesday of next week at 5 o'clock to
consider the resolution to Tescind the
action of the convention in aboishing
the "hold-over Senator's and a. resolu-
ton referred to it to have quadrennial
sessions and elections for the General
Assembly.
The report that there had been a trade
made whereby advocates Of the Univer-
sity appropriation were to relinguish their
opposition to the hold-over Senate fea-
ture in return for the reopeninS OF the
University matter and votes for the ap-
preparation was Indignantly denied last
night The following statements were au-
thorized and requested from leaders for
appropriation and opponents of hold-over
Senate:
Mr. Glass: please say I would not
agree TO trade my vote or give UP my
opposition to the hold-over senate for a
100000 annual appropriation. The story
is ridiculous. The University appropria-
ton was not beaten. a the vote of Mr..
Thorn being cast by mistake, and, having
been withdrawn, leaves a majority in IA
vor of the appropriation. On the other
hand. the hold-over Senate was defea ted
in fair, square vote of 10 TO 3d. and l
don't expect TO ever see it up before the
convention again sgsr7stz -
MIR. Boaz: Il never asked to have the
University mater feopeneQ. l. y never
dreamed of any trade. l know none of
us did. IL anybody else thought of such
a thing, it was foolish. If l was offered
an appropriation of 100000 year for a
vote in favor of hold-over Senate, /
would refuse it
Mr. r. Walton Moore: 1.-The story is
simply an outra &c, so far as any one of
my acquaintance on either side of the
question is concerned. l never heard Of
it before, and shalt continue my opposi-
ton to the hod-over Senate and my sup
port Of the University, as I have done
all the time.
The two cases are not, analogous at
all, and no such trade the one iidi-
Gated could possibly Have been made
Among the leaders in opposition to the
appropriation and in favor Of the hold
over Senate, these statements We're made.
Mr.. a. p. Thorn: The story is abso-
tut-y l:aseless. The reopening of the
University appropriation matter was dis
tinctly one of justice and fair play. i
made the motion 10 reconsider and stated
my reasons for doing so. I have always
thought it urwise to make the appropria-
ton a constitutional one and shall vote
against it when it comes up.
