MAYOR BLISS IS
PLACED UNDER
ARREST
Charged With Violating Ordinances
By Having Dynamite in
His Possession.

Mayor Chas. H. Bliss was placed
under arrest yesterday afternoon, and
is to appear this morning before Judge
Laney in the recorders court for trial.
The charge against the mayor is for
having dynamite in his possession,
which is a violation of the city ordi'
nances.
Some DAYS since, when the agitation
for cleaning up the city and placing II
in a more thorough sanitary condition,
vas commenced, the mayor with other
officials conferred as to the best means
of draining Butcher Pen pond in the
northwestern section of the city. 1t
was finally decided to sink pipe into
the clay strata, which forms the basin
for the pond, and then explode a
charge OF dynamite at the bottom Of
IT, in the hope that hole or passa 81
way might be opened into the sand be-
lew and the water thus be drained
down through it.
As consequence the mayor ordered
a quantity of dynamite, and some Of
this was used yesterday in the first
attempt. Later, white az ele triCal
apparatus was being secured, some OF
the dynamite was left at the North
Hill Truck house.
This soon became known and John
Burns, who resides in this section, p-O-
ceded to the police station, where he
made affidavit against the mayor.
Later when the mayor returned TO the
city hall from dinner he was arrested.
The section under which the aft j.,
Gavit mas made is as follows: Sec
ton 215. 1t shall be unlawful for any
merchant, storekeeper or other person
TO have to keep within the limits of
the city any dynamite, nitro-g)ycerine
or other violent explosive material"

ILLNESS
Death Caused from HydrOphOhia-.
He Had Been III Only a
Short Time.

Judge z. H. Ham, one of the best
known and most popular marine engi-
neers Of the city, expired Sunday
afternoon after a short illness. Death
was pronounced to be due to hydropho-
Dia, and for several hours prior to his
Death the patient showed signs of hav-
ing the dreadful malady.
Death occurred at the home of the
deceased on East Romano street.
where he resided with his mother and
sister. While he had been suffering
with some kind if blood disease for a
number of weeks, his condition was
not considered at all serious, and it
was not until the latter portion Of the
past week that he was taken to his
bed, from which he never arose.
Some weeks ago, the Judge" as he
was famiharly known throughout the
city, complained of being i'll, and final.
ly decided to & 10 New Orleans. where
he remained in one the hospitals

pearances was much improved when
he returned.

A PECULIAR MAN.
HIS Name Was Lazarus, and He Had
Peculiar Experience.

HIS Name Was Lazarus, and He Had
a Peculiar Experience.
"In one of nay voyages from Cape
Town to England" writes a traveller,
81 shared my cabin with q peculiar
man, whose name was Lazarus. He
made me promise that If he should die
during the voyage would prevent his
burial at sea. He said that on a pre-
vious voyage he had fallen sick and
was taken for dead and put into a sack
for burial. a quartermaster had been
put on to watch the body until it was
time for the funeral. When the burial
party arrived the quartermaster in
formed the captain that he thought the
body had moved in the sack. The sack
came to life again. Such was the
story Lazarus told me. Lazarus was
a thin man with a salIov face. He
had an enormous appetite and appear
ed at every meal, to which he devoted
his whole energies. The good feeding
only seemed 10 add to his corpselike
appearance. One evening, sure enough,
when we were about halfway to our
voyages end. he apparently died again.
The doctors took him in charge this
time, however, and he came out Of his
trance without any shotted sack cpl
sode. He was met at the London
docks by number of relatives and
friends, all of whom looked as IL they
might be suffering from the same COM
