NOT FOR HIS MONEY
CORPSE AsToNIsHEs DOUGLAS CORONER BY PROTESTING
 AGAINST INQUEST.
Refuses to Stay Dead on Railroad Track Until Jury Can be Summoned, Although Assured That Courts In tentions are Strictly Honorable.

DOUGLAS, April 30. (Special)
 In the future all Douglas corpses interrupting an inquest being held over them will be fined for contempt of court. This important ruling was made this morning by Judge McDon- aid, who spends as much of life as he can in holding post mortems.
 Early Saturday morning breath less Mexican rushed into Judge Nc Donald's court to inform his honor that a dead member of the human fam- fly lay on the railroad track immedi- ately west of the freight depot.
 I'm sorry he's dead if he's friend of yours" said the court, but at the same time I'm powerfully obliged to you. Inquests come high, but we must have them. Here is where l get $10 back from Cochise county in lieu of some of my rightful costs which a vicious district attorney is trying to withhold from me"
 Having thus delivered himself, the court proceeded to the scene of the dead one. The body lay between the rails, apparently crushed. 'I ought to have brought a jury along" the court reflected, seeing no chance to get six men in that immediate vicinity.
 Wonder where he was struck" the judge unused, convinced that in a drunken stupor the victim had unwise- ly contested the right of way with a switch engine of highly organized temperament.
 Without further ceremony Judge MnDonald rolled the dead man over and began to search for bruises and blood.
 Co away and let me sleep" roared tho dead man, in voice irritable enough to be classified as insolent.
 With start the court fell back. When a corpse addresses a coroner in that tone of voice the corpse holds trumps and the coroner is entitled to be surprised.
 "Shut-up and lie down." commanded the court sternly. You have been dead for hours. This inquest is off cial"
 But the corpse was that ohery sort, worth $10 to an honest coroner when dead, and not worth ten cents to them selves r. anybody else when alive. hE .s. up, rubbed his eyes, and com
 lSnted with force upon the situatiLn
 At thu .1e court fled in despat., never stopping until he reached Ih, Waldorf saloon, where he pleaded guilty to a charge of disgust and was fined two rounds - drinks for the house.
 Thea it was that he announced his intention of always carrying a coro- ners jury with him as bodygusrd in the future, stating that any corpse who undertook to interrupt an inquest or any member of the jury who went fumbiing about corpse in an awk- ward manner calculated to arouse the corpse, would promptly be given the maximum fine for contempt.

Saves His NIghtshirt.-Mayor and Mrs Adamson received a letter from the brother of the latter, Frank C.. Mather, who was in San Francisco when the recent earthquake arrived. He had a narrow escape from death, and all that he saved from the build ing was his nightshirt. In the aGioin- ing room to Mir. Mather man and his wife and child were stopping. The husband was killed, the little girl sui fering a broken arm. Mir. Mather managed to reach Berkeley with the lady and her crippled daughter, and from there wrote to MT. and Mrs. Adamson, telling of his escape and that ha is in Berkeley without funds Mayor Adamson telegrapned means to his brother-inlaw yesterday afternoon. In his letter Mr. Mather stated that the people of Berkeley were taking the best care of all the refugees who had reached that place from San Fran cisco.

Fire Limit Extended.-At a special meeting oF the city council held Friday night the fire limits were extended from Eighth one block further south to Seventh street This action was taken in response to a petition presented and the statement that some one intended to move some shack buildings to the corner of Seventh and G to rent for business purposes. The gait being made in the rapid growth of business on G avenue would have jusaified the council in going one block further south on that thoroughfare with the fire limit. This action will be neces- gary very soon.

 More Suits Filed.
 A number of suits were led in the District Court today. Chas Krudel has brought an action against the county for debt to the amount O. S364, alleged to be due for meals fur nished to jurors and bailiffs in civf eases during the last term of the court from October 90 to December 23. He presented the demand to the Board ol Supervisors and they refused to pay 1t It involves the question as to whether the county Is required to furnish the meals of jurors while they arc engag ed in the trial of civil case. The question will probably not be tried be fore Judge Doan, as he is disqualied Tn the matter, as it was under his or der that the jurors were taken tt their meals.
 Ale Go6dwinsky, of Bisbee, has fl ed petition in the District Court ask ing the court to allow him to change his name to that of Abe Goodwin. He alleges that he is generally known by the latter name, and that 1t will be of much convenience to him in a so cial as well as a business way, and that he has already acquired some proper ty in that name.

EVEN TE HISSAssA' SHALL PASS

Once in Persia reigned king
Who upon his signet ring
Graved q maxim true and wise,
Which, if held before his eyes,
Gave him counsel at glance,
Fit for every change and chance;
Solemn words-and these are they:
Even this shall pass away
Trains of camels through the sand
Brought his gems from Samarcand;
Fleets of galleys through the seas
Brought him pearls tolmatch with them
But he counted not his gain
Treasures of the mine or main;
"What is wealth." the king would say,
Gwen this shall pass away"
In the revels of his court,
AT the zenith of the sport,
When the palms of all his guests
Burned with clapping at his iests,
He, amid his figs and jests,
, Cried, 20, loving friends of minel
Pleasures come, but none to stay;
Even this shall pass away"
Fighting on furious field,
Once q javelin pierced his shield,
Soldiers, with loud lament,
Bore him, bleeding, to his tent.
Grooming from his tortured side,
"Pain is hard to bear" he cried;
"But with patience, day by day,
Even this shall pass away
Towering in the public square,
Twenty cubits in the air,
Rose his statue, carved in stone.
Then the king, disguised, unknown,
Stood before his sculptured name,
Musing meekly, what is fame2
Fame iS but slow decay
Even this shall pass away"
Struck with palsy, sere and old,
Waiting at the gates of gold,
Said he, with his dying breath,
HLife is done, but what Is death?"
Then, in answer to the king,
Fell a sunbeam on his ring,
Showing by heavenly ray,
SEVEN this shall pass away"

Another disastrous fire occurred
Friday noon, G. r. Kings fine resi-

pletely destroyed. The carpenters
were remodeling and improving it
which would eventually have made it
one Of the finest homes in the city.
AS there were no FIRE plugs in that
neighborhood Gin fact none on that
side of town. the large crowd could
do scarcely anything but watch it turn
to ashes. $500 insurance only was
carried. While the loss ove1reached
$4,000. Miss Leona Kimball is to be
congratulated on her quickness and
thorougness lin giving the alarm; and
had there been water the fire would
soon have been subdued by the large
crowd that quickly responded.
