Beveral of the heads of different departments of the City Government, among the number Mr. Cregier and Marshal Benner, attended tho test of the Lake View Water-Works, and mounrn that, after riding g0 far through the wmud, the Ppipes burst in such s manner that a test was im. poesible. The reeding entertainment given-by Mrs; M. L. Cummings at her Conservatory of Masic, No. 679 Wabash avenne, was attended by alarge number of ber friends. The entertainment waa thoronghly apprecisted, and was a successin every respect, owing to the efforts and influence of Afrs. Cummings. A well-known politician down in the Fifth ‘Ward has for maoy months past been in & dsing condition with sn incurable disease. Nothing bas prolonged his life thus long but a judicions conrse of mendacity, bis friends assuring him, whenever he tskes a tarn for the worse, that there will soon b a special election for Alder- men. The spring fashions in male attire are cut.

Mr. Ira Brown and wife, who have been spend- ing the winter in New Orleans and vicinity, re- turned vesterday to Chifsgo, and are stopping for the prevent at the Grand Paciic. Mr. Brown's health is greatly improved, and he will very soon re-cngage in active business sgain, and make the suburban real-estate trade mors sctive than ever. Judgiog from 2o item in the Menominee Heraid of Thursday, we are pot likely to be sbors of icein Chicago next summer. From that paper it is learned that the firm of Griffin, Connolls & Co., of this city, are now engaged at Nenomince in cutting aud etoring 800 tous of ice daily. The ice is 2 fect thick, perfectly #olid, and clear as crvstal. To put up this amount requires 150 men and 20 horees, and if the weather continues favorable one week longer, thoy will have 20.000 tons secured for the Chi- cago market, which will be transferred to their ice-houxos here as s00a aa lake navigation opens. A dirty-faced small boy with a cap made of red sod blue picces of flaonel called at Tme ‘TaisuXe office vesterday, and haoging out s few f2thoms of sbirt-tail from bhis taffrail, desired to gee the editor. His wish bemng gratified, he produced = small and plainly-illegible piece of Elner ingcribed with a list of the ofiicers of tho. econd Ward Mudlarke.

The six Hebrew Sacietics of Free Sons of Is- rael who have their headquarters in this city up to a late date have buried their dead in the throe old cemeteries_on the lake shore just ontside of the city limits, which they bave oc- eupied for twenty years or more. As the ob- ject is to remove the cemeteries away from the city, the lodges have bought GX{ acres of land beautifally sitnated in what was formerly Haas' Park, a nile south of Harlem, on the Desrinines River. Ure & Miner, of Rogar Park Nursery, ave the contract for laying out and decorating the grounds. They will piant 1,000 forest trees, 100 evergreene, and 50 flowering-shrubs. A fence. such 24 surrounds Rosehill, planed picket with base-board, will be erected around the cemetery. A gentleman who residos on £t.

For scveral days past there has been on exhibition at Frazer, Chalmer & Co.'s establishment, on Yulton streer, a machine for ° supplying i sir in__ mines, and exhsusting the fonl air. Yesterday forenoon a test of the blowing capacity of the machine was made in the presence of a number of prominent citizens, nnder the direction of parties connected with the Signal Service in this city. There wero present Gen. John A. Corse, Dlasthew Lafln, William Chisholm, Joseph H. Brown, aud others. The capacity of the ma- chine to supply air through an opening of five by four aud one-hall feet was.found to be 79,000 cubic feet per minute, and at a velocity of forty miles per hoor.

It was np in & saloon oo the West Side, sbont tho very witching hour of 9:30 p. m., when he entered, and, drawing the sleeve of his red flan- pel sbirt across Lis bairy lips, remarked: *‘Squeeze me, old pard, wharabout round hers mout North Robey canon be ?” *Which ?” ro~ plied one epectator, wiule another, who had more respect for appearances, said *How?" “*¥all, ye kinder sce,” resumed the red-shirted siranger, ** down thar yonder on t'other side o' ‘the divide they told me to follow West Madison gulch doo west till I kim to North Robey canon, and thar I'd find the tepee I'm arter.

Next day he tried to mase the Police Justics believe that he cama trom Custer City ; ** Coster nolhina; affably replied the Jnrlge, *you come from Cheyenne— sa the SouthSide.” THE SCHOOL-TEACHERS, A 'TRIBUSE reporter, having been informed that eome of the teachers in the public schools complained quite bitterly because they have not yet received their ealary for February, called esterday afrernoon upon the Hon. John C. ichbers, President of the Board of Edacation, to make some iuquiries concerning the eitua- tiop. Mr. Richberg said thzt it was true the teachers in the public schools had not yet re- oceived their February salaries, and that the stipend for March was alresdy due. Tus city coffers, though almost depleted, contain about enough to the credif of the School Fund to pay abont balf s month’s salary. Ne- gotiations are pending which he thought wounld be consummated in a few Gays, wheraby the teachers can get their pay for February by Satur- day ; and be farther hoped that enough money would be obtained 5o that the March sslaries could be vpaid ot the same time. However, should the negotiations fall throngh, » half- month's salary will bs paid without fail Satur- desy. In roply to a question as to whether any complaints or protests Had been mede by tne teachers to the Board of Eda- cation, he stated that they had done nothing of the xind. The toachors knew that the Board was not responsible for their not getting their pay when it fell due, and they fully appreciated the finsncial situation in which the city is placed. He further gave it as his opinion that the teachera would do nowas theydid at:he time of the big fire—work along until the rty got into a condition to pay. SEXTON AND HANDLEY. Yesterday morning the cases of P. J. Sexton, contractor, and Willism Handloy, Superintend- eot of the new County Hospital, came up be- fore Justice Scuily. The defendants were charged with violating the building ordinance in not sinking the fonndation walls of the kitch- en to a saflicient depth. A number of county officials were present, and Mr. Wilson ' repre- sented the city, and upon his motion the guits were witbdrawn. Before tho hearing, Mike Bailey and C. C. P. Holden had s spat, during which the latter said he wss going for Mike. The valorous C. C. P. also threatened to punish bim. Supt. Bailey says that he bas asked the county to select a competent man, and he (Bailey) to select another, and they a third, the thres men to be building experts, who shal docide whether the foundatiop-walls as_ constructed by Mr. Sexton are of sufficient depth and put togoth- er with sufficient mortar. Alike holds that the walls are bnt 2 feet in depth and poorly put up, and he eays they will have to be torn down and the defects remedied. In re- gard to the imputations cast upon him by Sex- t0n, Bailey bas had Carney and Kelly go before 8 Notary, and there they made affidsvit that be never, by word, deed, or suggestion, made any propoeition to them for a compromise, and never iusinuated that mouey would _induce him to lot up an Sexton or Coolirane. Bailey further says that be only asks what is right, and demands that the county ehall comply with the building ordinunce the eatme a8 any other private citizon. . THE CLERK'WISE IN HIS GENERATION. A young man of unterprise, integrity, and diligence, who bounds sirily over the counters of a prominent firm on Clark street for an an- nual remuneration of $650, was laat week np- proached by the seaior pariner, who said to him in a tone wherein were blent high reeolve and abject hamitintion : *“Mr, Smith, 28 you are doubtless aware, times are hard. Tho evils of & what's-his-name for protection and an irre- deemsblo what-you-mar~call have had their influence as to the business of the country ina —28 I may say—a thingummy.

You can’t fool your uncle.” € HOTEL ARBIVALS. Palmer House—F, F. Horstman, Philsdelphia; J, ‘L. Phelps, Boston; John Hays, Town; John Merriman 2nd Jolin Ingersoll, Cleveland: A, E.

Last ovening 8 mass-meeting of workingmen opposed to the letting of convict labor so as to compete with free artisans was beld in the new Arbeiter Hall, on Desplaines strect, near Madi- son. A. H. Brown presided, and A. W. Beecher acted sa Secrotary. ME. BROWN weq the first speaker, and said that he was plessed thst there wers §0 many persons pres- ent who took an interest in this opposition to the lessing of convict labor. He held that the coopers’ frado had been ruined by coovict Isbor, and the cigar- wakers hiad fared no batter. Shoemakers and sione-cuttera had also felt the effects of prison laber. Politiciana claimed the Penitentiary a8 a trorhy of victory, and it was made a depot for Bcalawags sud bummers, who were given offices in it, and the contractors were bled for political purposes. They shonld oppoge every candidate for office who was not opposed to convict labor. He thought 1abor should be elevated, and he was opposed to Chiness cheap Iabor, which had thrown good mechanics out of employment on the Pacilic Coast. The Penitentiary Rings were composed of the smartest politicians whom they had to contend with. He thought honest manu- facturers were also interested in smppressing this great wrong upon the laborars and Btats. ‘The resolutions previously adopted at a dele- gate meeting some two weeks ago, as expressive of the views of the trades, and publithedin Toe TRIBCNE at the time, were then read by tho Secratary and adopted. Mr. McAuliffe offered ths following : Resolved, That we wiil not vote for any candidate for any office who has not_publicly promised to pre- sent to the legislative body to which he may be elected. a resolution, legally framed, and to support the same, which resolution, if msde a law, will tend to abolish the aforesaid evils, ME. M'GILOREY was then introduced, and ssid that the working- men had been used as voting-cattls, and wero ‘mado the servanis of a saloon aristocracy and ward politicians. .He then discussed the resoln- tione seristim. He held that the furniture trade had been largely drawn upon by convicts which hac demoralized it sll over the country. Con- victs should be punisbed by bard labor. In England many convicts wer employed on hulks, but were not allowed labor-gaving machinery, 28 in this country, and 8o they did not compete with honest lsbor. e held that the employment of convicts, as fn op- position to the honest workingman, was a nefarious practice. Ponitentiary convicta were generally men who were beyond reforma- tion, and wers forced into trades to their demor- alization. Eight trades supported the Peniten- tiary aod convicts, while all the other indus- tries in the State banefited by it. While money bad been drawn to Joliet, Lonest workingmen and their families wers actually suffering for the necessaries of life in city. He jtook the ground that the convicts were only forced toa trade, and they consequently wers mere automatons, who had no interest in the trade they learned. He said 300 convict stone-cat~ ters were being created in Joliet every four years, which was diluting and ruining that branch. He held that they could not compete with their la~ bor. They were equals under the law as free men, but they themselves, would have to sup~ port the Constitation which granted them their liberty. The workiogmen were controlled by a fow pot-bouse politicians. He hoped that the workingmen would rise against caucus and party, and wonld only look for honest men. He wanted the workingmen to organize, and de- mand a fair show as against the convicts of the State. Thirty-five hundred men in thisfcity had to bear the burden of supporting the convicta of this State. He said they wers great in this country for making laws, yet the machanic was often cheat~ ed out of his just dues, or had to wait two or three years, until appeal affer appeal was de- cided. The Lien law was merely 8 **lean” law, which Ieaned only to ons side. He thought la- bor should not be_brought into such an uneven contest with capital. ME. O'DONSELL followed 3r. McGilorey, and said that the mar- ble-workers hiad orgauized perfectly,—employera and employed,—and that they would not work on apy building in which aunything made by con- victs had been used. or allow aman to work with them who had leamned his trade st the Penitentiary aa a convict. Otto Ebner then mado a brief speech in Gare’ -nan, to the same effect a3 the previons speak- ers. .. Mesers. - Moore, RMcCarthy, MoLogan, and others also mado brief speeches, after which the meating adjourned. ————— THE BAR ASSOCIATION. MISCELLANEQUS DBUSINESS. The Bar Association met st their roomsin Farwell Hall building, Mr. E. B. McCagg 1 the chair. The report of the Treasurer was accepted and placed on file. Mr. William H. King offered the following resolution : ‘Woreess, The several courts of record of this connty bavo boen in the practice of faking & summer vacation of about two montha; WHEREAS, , The time of such vacstion in the Circult Court Liss commenced on_tho third Aonday of July, and ended the third Mondsy of Septomber, while such ‘vacation in the Superlor Court has commenced on the first Monday of All%ufl znd ended on the first Aon.

Resolved, That the Secretary deliver to each of the Judges of ssid courts s certified copy of tne forcgoing preamblesnd these resolutions during the ensuing week, Mr. Teloy moved an_amendment making the ‘vacation from tho first Monday of August to the firet Monday of October. Mr, Goudy moved to striko out the first Aon- day of Soptember and insert the first Monday of_Qctober. Afr. Goudy's amendment was adopted and thas of Mr. Taley lost. Mr. Goudy then moved that if the Judges would only sllow two mooths, July and August be accepted. On motion of Mr. Goudy, Messrs. Goudy, King, and High were appointed committee to present the resolutions to the Judges and confer with them on the subject. Mr. Witherow introduced the following reso- lution, which was referred to the Judiciary Com- mittes : = Reolved, That this Association respectfully recom- mends the enactment of the following blll by the Dext General Assembly of the State of Ilinois: A Bill for au act relating to the execution and effect of contracts in writing. BEcTION 1. That the distinctions between contracts in writing bearing the seal of the person to be bound thereby, and contracts executed in all other respects ‘with like formalities, are hereby abolished; that the addition of a private seal to an instrument in writin shall not affect it character in auy reapect; that ail sontracts in writing, eigned by the party to be bound, or for him by his duly authorized agent or attarnoy, sball import a consideration; that the want or faflure in whols or in part of {he consideration of 3 contract in writing may be shown as a defense, total or partisl, g the case may bo, exccpt a8 to megotiatlo paper, transferred in good faith aud for a valuable considers- tion before maturity. Ar. Goudy, for the Committee on Portrait ot Judge Drummond, reported that the Judge had consented to sit for his picture. On motion of Ar. Hervey, he and NMossrs. Horton aud J. E. Smith were appointed s com- mitteo to confer with the Foderal Judges as to the adjournment during the summer vacation, in order that sll the Courts may be closed at the same time, -Adjourned. % o g Al THE HEFFERAN CASE, BURKE DISCHARGED. Coroner Dietzsch yesterdsy held the inquest on the boy John Hefferan, who was shot Thura- day evening by John Burke, 8 watchman of tho Chicago, Alton & St. Lonis Railrosd. The Cororner stated to & TRIUNE report- er that he oxpericnced great trouble in imponeling & jury; that the locality where the boy’s parents live waa as hard a one as there is in any portion of the city, and wasa good piace to enforce compulsory education, if guch a law was ever enacted. Two of Agnew's friends csme to him and demanded that he solect such jurymen 58 they recommended, which he peremptorily refueed, and was abused in return. He finally eolected twelve men, ten of whom were Irfsh and two German. They re- paired to the house end encountered some fifty men, who were shouting and yelling, and a womsan_eaid, ‘“There comes the Dutchman with bis Dotch jury.” Soma of the mem- bers of the august body did not turn up yesterday morning, and new ones had to be chosen in their stead. The inquest was held in the Twelfth Street Police Station, and the crowd in attendance was 28 hard and ball-necked 2s could well be gath- ered together. 'fhe presenco of a large police force, however, kept them in order. The wit- nesses examned were Frederick Snell, William Cagney, s boyof 13, John Hefferan, Charles Huntingdon, and Charles Price. Cagnug‘s tessimony alone was of any interest, ingsmuch as it showed that s missionary out tewart svenue conld effect good ser- vice. Cagney is a_ herd-looking young repro- bate, who conld neither read nor write. He did 1ot know the natare of an oath and didn't go to school. He ana young Hefleran, with . thirteen other boys, wera in the habit of stealing grain, and on'the night in question had been stealin, ‘wheat, whils the thirteen others wars station: asagoard. Hefferan was shot while running. In regard to the shooting nothing further was developed than that which has previonsly been fully given io Tne Troisune. The prisoner made a statement not at all af variance with the testi- mony, and the jury returned a verdict that the shooting was sccidental, and after this decision the prisoner was discharged. e THE CITY-HALL. The City Collector took in 31,200 yesterdsy, much of which was from licenses, Yesterday was the day for the general re- newal of licenses, but only abous forty-five of sll kinds were renewed. Marshal Goodell appeared for the first time since his recent attack of sicimess in his accus~ tomed place in the City-Hall. The funds in the City Treasury were yester~ day increased by the addition of £25,000 from Mike Evans, §1,559 from water-rents, and $1,063 from the City Collector. Bouth Town Collector Evans paid £85,000 to the countv yesterday. He is gaid to have more of the public funds in hia possession, and will pay over ac his govereign will and plea sure. The Council Commities on Gaos met in the City Clerk’s office yesterday afternoon to con- sider the proposition of » man named Parsons to furnish all streot-lamps with a patent pas- burner free of charge ; he to receive a8 his com- pensation per yesr one-hslf of the amount of money saved to the city. The petition was pre- sented to the Committes some months ago, but, not being acted on, wasrecantly renewed. On the motion of Ald. Hildreth the petition was refer- ted fothe Law-Department, and the mesting adjouraed till Monday afternoon. BHOKEN STREET-LAMPS. Some days ago the Committee on Gas-Lights met 1 the City Clerk’s office to consider the petition of one John Tehon, the coniractor for Tepairing the street-lamps of the North aud Bouth Divisions spd keeping them iu general good order throughout the year. document set forth that the lamps in those Divisions had been damaged to the extent of $2,000 in the stormof Jan. 1. Ald. Warren, aa was st the time reported, saw the justice of the claim and moved that it bo allowed. Other Aldermen wanted the opinion of the Board of Public ‘Works, and the matter was deferred till Tehon could got tne certificate of the Board. Yesterday afternoon as a TRIBUSE reporter sat in the City Clerk’s oftice, waiting for something to turn up, & man unknown to the reporter en- tered, nosed around, and went ont. Afriend sit- ting pext to the reporter remarked, *‘Looking after his job, I guess.” “‘Who ? ™ asked tho seeker after news. “That man thst just went our. That's Tehon, —John Tehon, I believe he is called in the con- tract.

It's & big frand, snd the Committee sboutd know it, if it don't already.” The reporter thougbt he would find ont what the Board of Public Works had done in the matter. Mr. Prindiville was easily fonnd, sad was_surprised to hear thas any erch petitioner had been referred to the Hoard, as he had heard nothiog of it. Tehon had not been to him, nor to auy mamber that ho knew of. Nor would he, in case ho should come, get the claim approved. He was, and he could speak for the Board, op- posed to any * extras,” and none shonld be sllowed.
