MORE INTEREST IN ART
Large Attendance at Public Reception
Last Night.

The attendance at the public reception
was gratifying exhibition Of public
interest in that institution. Interest

ranged art bookroom on the third floor

interest during the annual art exhibit
ton. A Sunday paper enormously re-
ported that this had been purchased for

TO try to raise the funds necessary for
It's purchase. Mr.. Alexander has made
very liberal terms and it seems probable
that the picture may be secured: The
price has been reduced from $4,000 to

as he addressed large audience last
night at the First Presbyterian, church.
His theme was ssThe Tragedy, of a
Race It was an attempt to estimate
the world g debt to the Hebrew race

pie without country. Poets, states
men and reformers passed in grand re-
view before deeply interested audi

who heard, will soon forget the remark
able analysis Of the three civilizations,
The Hebrew, the Grecian and the Ro-
man, and the messages found for mod

A HOTEL GUEST
SHOOTS ROBBERS
CASE OF SANGUINARY NIGHT
MARE AT THE WEST.
A Transient Dreams Of Highwaymen,
Pulls His Revolver from Beneath His
Pillow and Makes the Wall Look Like
Sieve, and All This without Wax
ing UP.

Somnambulists in q big hotel are not
regarded with favor by the management,
but when the sleepwalkers get up in
their rumpled ajamas and, armed with
big revolver, begin to shoot holes
thru the side Of the sleepingrooms, they
become, something Of a bore. This was
what happened at, the West Sunday
ual registers at that inn again he will
be politely, but firmly, s. frisked' by the
cautious clerk.
Sunday night, few minutes before ~
Q clock, three pistol shots came booming
down the big corridors from the sleeping
shots have but two meanings to the
corps of house operatives-murder or
suicide. The big lobby was we'll filled
at the time, and the shots caused COM
motion. The night clerk took immediate
and cool-headed action. He ordered the
elevator stopped on the instant and, in
a flash, had covered every exit by plac-
ing porter on guard. No one was per-
mitted to pass in or out until an investi-
cation was made.
Startled guests from the upper floors
began to leave their rooms and make in.
qulrles. The room from which the shots
came was located and a pass key used in
gaining an entrance. A young man was
slumbering contentedly and sonoriously

showed that the shooting had been eff
fective, so far as spelling the work OF
the decorator. The young man was
awakened and asked for an explanation
/ of his artillery practice.
Then the affair took a humorous turn
! The guest explained that he had had 6
bad dream. He thought himself at
tackled by footpads and being held up
He had drawn his trusty fowling piece
from beneath the pillow and shot his as
sailants. The wool and the warp in thu
weaving of the dream changed to field
Elysian, and the dreamer cuddled bacl
down into his blankets as comfortabl,
and unconsciously as setter pup crawl
to the center Of the litter to profit b,
the warmth of his fellows. Not unit
the damaged wall and the three empt,
shells in his revolver were shown hin
did he realize that he had been pei
forming little Fort Snellingwise.
The revolver was taken down to tn
office safe for manifest reasons. TIL
guards were withdrawn from the door
and everybody, after laugh, went bacl
Ito bed. 1t is now joke at the BIZ
hotel, but the prompt action of the cler,
gave assurance to the guests that tn
man on the night desk was 'onto hi
job,' and would not lose his head i
an emergency.
The pocket cannon is still in the 20.

Report on Waterworks,

Supervisor J. H. Mcconnell of the
waterworks department completed his
annual report this morning, showing
that the pumps of the Camden Place
and Northeast pumping stations had
drawn 6,632,236,620 gallons Of water
from the river during the year 1904.
This is a daily average of 1S,l7o,5ll
gallons, being an average daily per
capita consumption of nearly IL gal
Ions. Last year the average daily con
sumption was more than = 100000
gallons, but tho the city pumped more
water in 1903, it used less, the appar-
ent greater output being due to the
worn condition of the old pumps, which
permitted much waste Of water by
"slippage.' 81
The department laid COLTS feet of
watermains, set I73 hydrants and LAT
gates from six inches to thirty inches.
The number of miles Of Waterman is
now 284.S5, the number Of fire hydrants
9,614, and the number Of gates $500.
The great work Of the department
was in laying new supply mains to
Lowry Hill and Prospect park, which
now receive plentiful supply Of water
at strong pressure. -~ >-. rs..
