THE administration OF justice IN the
country perhaps better illustrates what l
have said and the principle of 1t than even
in the CITY,, because &c / understand the
practice 1t is for adj the country people
to rather about ito watch the proceedings
to learn the law,ias it is delivered from
the bench, to take an interest in the issues
as they are presented to the jury of their
~neiRhbors, 10 -critieises as they have the
right TO in a proper way the rulings of the
I court or the verdict offthe juryS"s so that

IT cannot come into the atmosphere of a
! courtroom without a feeling of deep re-
greet that l ever left It for l was eleven
years on the bench. l cannot refrain. in the
presence Of members of this bar and of the
distinguished Judge who presldes over H.
from commenting on what to me, and
doubtless to Judge Anderson has been, ex-
cept from the family relation and That or
the most intimate friendship, the sweetest
relation that l have ever experienced In
life, that between the judge on the bench,
whose character, whose impartialty all the
members of the bar recognize on the one
hand and the members of the bar, whose
/ sincere assistance in the administration of
justice, whose desire to have a square deal
all round is recognized by the court. Each
member Of the bar feels that he will get
a hearing, and that the judge will decide
bs the case requires and that no matter
how he decided, the relation of close friend

DECIDES In FAVOR OF
CORPORALS OF POLICE
City Attorney Long Holds That
They Are Eligible to Pros
motion at Any Time

City Attorney Long rendered an
opinion yesterday that corporafs of po-
lice were eligible to take an examina-
ton for promotion at any time. The
question was asked whether corporals
could take the examination for SER
geants bef62e they had served six
months in the lower rank. Long held
that the probationary period applied
only to appointees entering the de-
partment and that after six months
service they were eligible for pro-
motion.
According to Longs ruling cor
poral may take the examination for a
higher rank Immediately after his
elevation from patrolman.
Long in passing on the question re-
ferred to the custom of the civil serv-
ice commission of certifying but one
name from the eligible list for any
particular position. He says that this
is in violation of the charter and that
three names should be certified in each
case. The appointing power then can
select an appointee from among the
three eligibles.

TOO MUCH COIN
FOR RAT CATCHING
Supervisor Payot Says Men on
the Job Idle Away Their
Time

The health committee of the super
visors will confer with the board OF
health this morning relative TO the
charge that sanitary inspectors are
putting property owners to unneces-
sary expense and trouble. The COM
mittee will look into the cost OF sani-
tation. 1T being alleged by many that
the city is paying double the amount
1t should
Supervisor Payot, who is member
OF the health committee, has been
working a personal investigation into
the operation of the rat catchers and
Is convinced that three men are often
sent out on a job that one could per-
form in more satisfactory manner.
He says that men idle away great
deal of time and that the extravaganza
in sanitation should be curbed. hlle
he believes in the good work being
carried out by the health officials, he
does not believe in adding to the bur-
dens Of an overtaxed city by maintain
ing an army of employees that are not
needed. He is willing to give the
health officials all the money and help
they request, but does not feel that
the citys finances should be squan-
dered.
The matter of closing the isolation
hospital will be taken up. as there
have been but five plague cases since
the beginning of the year. OF these
patients one died and four recovered.
The hospital is being maintained at a
cost of $1,000 month, and unless 1T is
shown that 1t is necessary to continue
1t Payot will try to save that money
for the city.

MANY WANT BABY

Little Francis, the year old baby at
the Children's agency, who made an
appeal for home on Easter Sunday in
the columns Of The Call, is Hkely to
find one in a day or two If the num-
ber of applicants for the care of him
continues. No less than 15 applica-
tions were made yesterday. The Chill
dren's agency is not in hurry to place
its pet baby, and will make sure of a
good home before they give him up.
Application cards were given to all the
people who called, which must be filed
out, stating the ability to provide and
the references available. One man in
particular was very insistent that he
should not be disregarded and called
several times during the day. But
Francis is a prize and it will be seen
that he gets just the right home.

TRADE SHOWS LOSS
IN NEVADA STOCKS
Brokers Attribute Sluggish Mar
ket to Lack of Confidence
and Buying Orders

Sluggishness featured the market for
Nevada mining stocks yesterday. With
the exception of the less active securi-
ties, all stocks scored losses from 1 to
20 points. Heaviest trading was con-
fined to Great Bend of the Goldfield
list, but the activity of that issue
only served to pound it down 81 points.
Brokers attribute the condition of the
market to lack of confidence superin-
duced by marked absence of eastern
buying orders.

ceeded from $5.571s to $3.50 by the close
of the afternoon session. but at one
time was as low as s5.421. Florence

at s3.871s, as against 81 on Monday.

Combination Fraction sold at 81 cents.
Great Bend fell off 81 points under
heavy buying, opening at II cents and
closing at 56 cents. Great Bend EX-
tension also shared the decline of its
namesake, closing at cents, as against
10 cents on Monday Orc and st. Ives
each lost l point.
OF the Tonopahs the heaviest loser
was Belmont. which dropped from $1.25
to s1.15. Tonopah of Nevada opened at
$S.75 and during the informal sold at
S8.821a, but before the close rallied to
its opening figures. Midway lost 5
points, closing at 60 cents. and West
End sold at AZ cents, as against 43
cents on the previous day
Among the Comstocks, Ophir gave
way to the onslaught of the bear eIe-
ment, closing at loss of points, or
$3.50. Mexican likewise sacrificed 5
points. closing at s1.221a. Pittsburg
Silver Peak showed a little firmness.

s1.15. Rawhides were not offered.
