JACOB KoPPEL.

In the death of Jacob Koppel Sun
day morning Algiers lost one of its
foremost citizens. Mr.. Koppers death
was not unexpected, as he had been i'll
for several months and his physicians
had given up all hope some time ago.
Born in Algiers fifty-four years ago
Mr.. Koppel, after finishing his educa-
ton, became an apprentice at the
Johnson Iron Works, and later was
connected with various plantations as
sugar engineer He spent one year
as an official of the mechanical de-
partment of the Mexican Central Rail-
road in the early eighties, but was
forced to discontinue his connection
with the road because of his health
He was stationed at Tampico, Mexico,
which at that time was one of the
plague spots. He later became acco-
ciated with the Southern Pacific Rail-
road, and served for twenty-six years
as superintendent of the roundhouse
and machine shop departments. He
left the Southern Pacific some months
ago and had been almost continuously
ill from that time until his death.
Mr.. Koppel was considered an ex-
pert in the construction and repair of
locomotives, and while at the head Of
his department supervised some of
the most intricate and difficult con-
struction work undertaken by the
road on the system
He is survived by his widow who
was Miss Bertha Landry, his mother.
Mrs. Louise Koppel, and two brothers,
Albert Koppel, wholesale tea mer-
chant, and George Koppel, retired
wholesale grocer, as well as by two
sisters. Mrs. Andrew .Guilland and
Miss Ohpelia Koppel.

A LETTER OF INTEREST HERE.

Attorney W. o. Hart writes regard
ing the appointment of a recorder by
Governor Hall. Mr.. Hart says:
Regarding the letter published in
/ Wednesdays paper from Judge Thos
F. Maher, | beg to state that whatever
merit there may be in his position as
an original proposition that recorders
in the city of New Orleans are not jul
dicial officers, the matter is no longer
I an open question, for in the case of
State VS.. Grandjean (5l La. Ann
l099) the Supreme Court, speaking
through Justice Monroe, on April II,
1899, held as follows:
Article 157 of the Constitution, au.
thorizing the governor TO fill, by ap.
pOintment, vacancies in the judicial
offices of the parish of Orleans and
the city of New Orleans, applies to
vacancies in the office of recorder,
which, as now constituted, is a judi
cial office, within the meaning of the
article"
At the election in 1896, Mr.. Henry
Bezou was elected recorder of the Sec
ond District, and died in December,
1898; and in January, 1899, the City
Council elected Mr.. George H. Grand
jean to fill the vacancy; and thereup-
on the attorney general brought suit
against him, under the intrusion in Of
fee act, alleging that the act of the
council was null and void, and that
the vacancy should have been filled
by appointment by the governor
While the judge of the division of the
Civil District Court, to which this
case was allotted, held in favor of
Grandjean, the judgment was reversed
by the Supreme Court.
AS a member of the judiciary COM
mittee of the constitutional conven-
ton of 1898, | wrote Article 157, and
before the action of the city council
electing Mr.. Grandjean, had given an
opinion that the city council was with
out authority in the premises. but that
the appointment should be made by
the governor. The article in question
reads as follows:
Vacancies occurring from any
cause in the judicial offices of the

proaches be so constructed as to en-
able passengers to go up the upstairs
of the boat directly from the street;
and that they be embarked in the
same manner; that there should be at
least $4,000 spent in permanent i'm.
provements and equipment.
After the principal business for
which the meeting was called
was over. Captain Hardee told the
members something about the Canal
street ferry. Captain Hardee said that
he had made his recommendation
and that the delays were caused by
high water. and many other condi-
lions, but that he had made his report
to the mayor and it was at present In
his hands.
The following were present at the
meeting: John p. Nolan, julius Boden-
ger, Harold H. Gibson, Captain w. J.
Hardee, Martin s. Mahoney, Charles
Cieutat, Albert Twickler, Frank C. Du-
vic, Joseph E. Renecky, Peter 8. Law

LOOKING FOR LOCATION.

A few days ago Mr.. Wives, a gentle
man connected with the cotton bust
ness, was here looking for a site for
the purpose of erecting cotton gin on
our side of the river, to take care of
cotton that is now being raised on the
Grand Island road. Last year Mr.. Geo.
Jurgens planted his first successful
crop of long staple sea island cotton
and was sufficiently successful with
his crop to assure the maintenance of
a gin. Last year this cotton was carted
to the city to be ginned Several 10

BIG SPRAGUE DockED.

No doubt the Associated Press will
send broadcast to our thousands of
papers the feat of docking the largest
sternwheel towboat in the world. This
was accomplished during the past few
days by Mr. Ed McNair, the dockmas-
ter in charge of the two docks of the
New Orleans Dry Dock and Shipbuild-
ing Company. There were hundreds
of people there to watch the, dock
ing of this enormous craft, whose
wheel alone weighs thousands of
pounds and measures more than forty
feet in width and forty feet in diam
eter Her four rudders are each more
than thirty feet long, and her machin-
cry the most powerful known for tow
boats. There was little room on Ell
Their side of the big dock when she
was finally settled on the blocks,
which had been so accurately ar
ranged for her berth that when she f.
nally settled on them it did not re-
quire any adjustment, so neatly had
calculations been made by Mr.. Nc
Nair, who is in possession of the out
lines of her bottom. The docking OF
the big boat is a great credit to Mr..
McNair, personally, and to the COM
pany who owns the docks and, also to
our district. as being able to dock any
steamboat floating in the Mississippi
river.

ROOSEVELT WINS OHIO.
Former President Has $4,000 Major
ity i'm Buckeye State.

A dispatch received this morning
states that Roosevelt carried Ohio
yesterday over Taft by about $4,000.
Ohio has been the battle ground dur
ing the past week, and the eyes of
the entire country have been upon it.
This makes the race between Taft
and Roosevelt a close one. The man.
ayers of both claim that enough
votes are pledged to their candidate
to nominate him in the Chicago con-
vention, the Taft management claim
ing $40 votes without Onio. What
the effect of Yesterdays primary in
Ohio will be remains to be seen.
Possibly it may mean a dark horse
in the Chicago convention.
