The old officers were re-elected for three months, and some informal talk was heid on the report of the Taxation Committec submitted and printed some time ago, in the midst of which a communication was read from Corporation-Counsel Boufield, Chairman of the Committee from the Convention ‘of Mayors recently held at Springfield, inviting the Cco-operstion of the Taxation Committce of the Clnb at the meeting of _the Mayors' Comuittee, 1o De held in this oty Tuesday.

The Humane Society have undertaken a . good work in putting a stop to children begging on he streets, For several days pust there has been 2 child. apparently about 10 years of age, gitting on the sidewalk slong State street, with his handg and feet covered up, pretendinz to be crippled, with a placard on his breast stating that nis father was crippled, and that his mother had five small children. The child’s helpless condition was the means of eplisting the sympathy of every one who saw him, and he was reaping arich harvest when 1he case was reportea to ihe Humane Society and Ofticer Dudley sent to investigate it. The oflicer went and examined the child and vecame convinced he was a fraud, and took him and put him joto & buoggy, for the purpose of pgoing to his home and trymg to have the child taken care of. No sooner had the ‘ofticer put the cnild into his boggy than a crowd gathered round bim and hetd hus horse and took the child oat and away from the oflicer, threaten- ing todemolish hus bugey. The officer. wishing to huve the public uuderstand it was for the d's protection as well as for the public, thought ‘best o let thechild wo, but it is the intention of the Soclety o enforce the law inregard to forcing these small children out ip the streets to beg, and they certainly deserve the hearty support of the public. The case of this boy was an 1mposition on. ine public, ashe s not a cripple 23 he was repre- zented.

Aftern protracted il.uess, the death of Mrs. Catherine Keeley, the wife of Mr. Michael Keeley., occurred at their residence, corner Sanzamon and Jackson streets, Friday morning at 3 o'clock. ‘The deceased lady was the danghter of Mr. Owen McCarthy, one of the old settiers of Chicago and one of 18 most respected citizens. Born snd rearcd in this city, Mre. lieeley hau a large circle of friends by whbom sne was beloved for her many cstimable qualities of mind and heart. Those whose lives arc spent in doing ood to others. in cieering the aflicted, in relieving the wants of the poor, and in- works of kindness and love towards thelr feliow-beings, do not live in vain, but rather do they Dless the race. Their example has a beneficent effect upon_others, and then_indeed the good tbey do lives after them. Mrs. Keeley's life was spent in doing works of mercy and caarity. She has been taken in the noon of nmer day. She will be fondly remembered not only by her aficted husband and relutives, but also by numerous others who es- teemed her for her virtues and manifold accom- plishments.

The Sapreme Court has recently decided, in_the case of Asahcl Grialey vs. The City of Blooming- ton, that the city had 1o power to imposea fine upon any person for not_complying with the ordi- nance which ordered people 1o soovel the snow from ¢heir sidewalks. Justice Scott, who prepared the opinion, said: £ “¢hecping strects and eidewalksin repair and free from obrtractions that impede travel or render it @angerons is referable to the same power 28 for constructing new improvements. The sidewals, 28 was declared in the case cited, is a3 much a pub- ot lic highway, free to the use of all, as the itself, and_upon principle 1t follows the citizen cannot be laid under obligation, under our laws, to keep it free from obstructions in frout of his property at his own expense, any mord than the street itself, either by the exercise of the police power or by fincs and penalties ‘mposed_by ordi- pance orby direct legislative action. Our con- clusion is, the ordinauce In question is invalid, and he judgment must be reversed and the cause remanded. Judgment reversed.™ A reporter of Tug Trinuse yesterday asked Corporation-Counsel Bonficld if the judgment in the case of the City of Bloomington would hold finud if applied to the City of Chicago, and Mr. onfield replied that he had oot read the opinion in the case, nor beard anytning about it. Conse- quently he was not ready to opine upon the rulings of the Supreme Court. Mr. Bonfield has a very good-natured way of optning in four or five hun- dred thuusand different directions whenever he desires mot to say. amything upon 8 given subject. It may have been nothing but thickheadedness that deadened the reporter’s com- prehension yesterday, but itis certaiuly a fact that the man of news had not the remotest idea of what Mr. Bonfleld had said when he ceased to epeak, except perhaps the doubtful generahization that perhaps mea could not be heid responsible for theacts of the Almizhty. If it snowed by the Divine decree, then the work of removing the obstructions deposited by the Almighty should not devolve upon helpless humanity. Itis but fair to say that the Corporation Counsel sympathizes with the pub- lic, who, in case Chicago comes nnder the opinion of the Supreme Court, will be ovliged to wade throneh and slip upon the snow piles that are to be one of the strongest arguments for street-car rid- ing this winter. THE COUNTY BUILDING. The LaGrange murder case will be called in the Criminal Court to-morrow. Villinger, recently tried for the killing of bis wife and found 1nsane, was taken to the Elgin Asylum yesterday. Coroner Mann says that he proposes to ‘prescrve all of the weapons of death that naturally come into his hands, neatly label them, and pre- eent them to the Historical or some other society. In the Criminal Court yesterdsy Conrad Badeke was tried for larceny and acquitted. The case cxcited some interest from the circumstances surrounding the allezed crime and charactec of the witnesses, the intereated parties being well known 1 certain circles. George Gibson and Ciarles Stewart pleaded guilty to” larceny, and were each given ninety days in the Houee of Correction. State's-Attorney Weber was yesterday epoken to in reference to the Grecnebaum case. c says there was an effort to bring 1t before the lute Grand Jury, but since it had not been docket- ed, nothing was done with it. It will come up be- fore the next jury, which will be impaneiced a week from to-morrow, and will be disposed of. Tt could not have come up sooner for tne reason that it was only docketed a few days ago. ‘There was considernble commotion yester- day nmong bondsmen arainst whom jndgzment ha ‘been entered Friday in the Criminal Court. Serv- eral were over with their excuses, but ver made any hesdway. Col. Ricaoy succeeded in having the judgment against him eet sside tempo- ranly, on his promising to turn up his manin ten days, but no otber order was made. Leonard Rothgerber was around to deny that he was upon any one’s bond, and the reco showed that he was right. Louis Rothberger, it was proved, was the individual in trouble, but he is sald to be so far away that he will never hear of it. In the Taylor-White contest yesterday morning, the attorney for White filed the promised counter-afiaavit as to tne sufliciency of the notice of contest, and, the other side hsving failed to take the necessary preliminary steps for a reconnt- inzof the ballots, nothing was done. In the af- ternoon Mr. Klokke was subpenaed by My, Taylor oappear at Noe. 8i and 86 LaSalle street, to- morrow morning, with the ballots, etc., but he will not respond, because he cannot, and it would nOw seem that the count will not be made until an order of the court has been had. Mr. Klokke is entirelv willing to enter pon the count atany time, and the work has not been commenced so far :e‘c;use the contestant has not proceeded in a leyal The colored people are in i arms against Sheriff Doffiman, {vecause, in hluvpninlmng:u. he failed to recozpize them. It appears that he prom- ised them 10 appoint a Mir. n,X’mpa 10 a Bailiffship. and the resson he did mot keep his promise was that a man named Baker, who wants 10 be appoiut- ed janitor, or to any other position he can tif, ad- vised him not to. Reputavle and infinential col- ored pzople denounce Baker, and do not recomnize him asa **leader,” nor yet'as a deserving Repub- lesn. They say of hun'that he has been backing and filling, and that in the Jast few years he has been little more than a_political tramp, and some of thew told the Sheriff as much yesterday, and exacted from hum the promise that they woald be few suitably recognized: Petitions are to belaid b fore him_in o few days, and the probabilities sre that Phillips, or some ‘one else, will be provided for, notwithstanding Baker's slicged efforts to the contrary in the interest of getting o jamtorship for bimself. . COURT-HOUSE BONDS. The recounting of the ballots on the bond ques- tion was continued yesterday, and the vote of the city was completed, showing a gain ‘+for™ the . bonds over the official countof 2,480, The vote of the wards is as follows: OFFICIAL COUNT. Fur. 1 Aguinst. Blank gl /JUNGES” RETURN | For._ agatnai, 419} urted Fifwwentn Seventwent Eightecntls. __Total....| a7l 0.7 22805 The change of the resultin the recount on the bond question has given several of the defeated candidates new conrage, especially the candidates for Sheriff, and yesterday afternoon they held a private seance in'a back room In a very tall build- ing, admitting none to their counsel except their legal advisers. They talked the situation over at considerable lengtn, and oftice being so swect, and. in the expericnce of Mr. Kern, the emolunents being so large, they actually ugreed—that, iskern did—to take the necessary steps to recount the votes cast on the clection of Sheriff. Mr. Kern wants the idea to go abroad that the other defeated candidates for Sheriff are taking the lead and put- ting up the money, just s he tricd to foist the re- sponsilality of “certun publications against Mr. Hoffmann some days ago in reference to cnjoimng him from entering his oflice .upon ¥ome one else, but the frcts arethat heis at the bottom of the scheme and hus _retained Col. Juessen and J. C. Richoerg asLis attorneys. The preliminary steps o the contest will'be taken to- morrow or next day, or a8 S00n as tue speciications or basis of ‘the proposed contest can be agreed upon. _Sheriff Hotfmann, when informed of what was going on, said he was giad of 1t, and expressed the belief that the recount would swell his major- ity.. The allegation is in brief that several thou- sand votes actually cast for Ryan or Dixon—Social- ist ond Greenoack candidutes for Sheriff—were connted for Hoffmann. An examination of the votes for other candidates on the mongrel tickets showa tne absurdity of tue claim, but a men who wanis tostay 1n oilice cannot sec absardities as other people do, “I'ne pwnt on which the Greenbackers base their claim that not all of their votes were counted for their candidate is, that all their tickets were printed simpiy ** For Court-lHouse bonds™; the word *‘agunst™ gia not appear on any of them. During _the recent recount of the baliots on the Court-THouse bond question they say that they looked on, and that the total numaer of iheir tick- cts appearing in the process of that count was about 2,000 more than the number of votes re- turned as given to their candidates. Hence they jump at the conclusion that votes which should have been counted for their cundidates were count- ed for the ltepublican candidates, They also say, bat admit that it is not much of an argu- ment, teat their registered strength ward clubs, eic., was far greater than their vote cast.. As for the Sociulists, without any dufinite facts presented, they clatm that they must bave cast more voles than were returned for their candidates, insomuch a8 their registered strength 1n clubs and sections was greater. BOYDEN'S REPORT. At_the meeting of the County Board Monday, Afr. N. B. Boyden, attorney in the lower courts, Zan office created several vears ago, which the 0l Board abulished just before it expired,—will submit his annual report, from .whica it appears that he bas done, during his term of scrvice, a considerable amount of work, the whole humber of cases which he had to do with during the past year haviny been 447, of which 226 were State cases. He looked after inquests of lunacy and trials in the County Court to “the mnomber of 221, and has also given his personal attention 10 a large number of preliminary examinations of persons against whom serious accusations of crine were made, Where counsel represented the defense, and where it was necessary to the proper administration of the law tnat, the " State should also be represented. Many persons thus chareed were heid to the Criminal Court. In many other cases, the proof being in- sufticient, the defendants were discharged. He calls the attention of tae County Board to another important braneh of rervice which has been under his supervision, and whicn deserves serious con- sideration. In the investization of jasane cases lie has made 1t always a potnt to inaaire with great pertinacity, from personal exaaination of ‘Wwit- nesses, etC., 8 to the residence of all insanc pau pers sought to be imposed upon this county, aud has ascertained that many such persond are yearly sent in to this city from the country, and cities, and towns in this State and other States, for the purpose of shifting upon Couvk County the burden and expense of their mainte- nance. Whenever he bas found that a pauper’s res- idence was other than Cook County, the pauper has been returned to s proper residence. There are patients now in the Insune Asylun who have been triea within four weeks that do not belong to this_county. =They have neither homicidal nor suicidal tendencies, and can.be snlpped at small cxpenses to their proper counties. ~Large bills of expense have been, and of right should be, saved to the connty. The showing made is creditable to Mr. Boyden, especially as he is not an aspirant for Teappointment. . CRIMINAXL. Silas A. Finney was arrested yesterday on a2 warrant issued by Justice Foote, charging him with asesult with intent to kiil. F. W. Sutner malkes the charge, and will testify Tuesday. ney, failing vo furnish $1,000 bonds, went to jail, A month ago Charles Bul met a couple of ladies on the North Side and assaulted them..

Officer Murphy found four boxes of cigars stowed away 1n an empty outter-firkin outside of the ealoon in the rear of No. 27 Hubbard street,— the sawme saloon where lie recovered u quantity of tobacco about & month ago. As the cigars were unstamped, it is supposed they were stolen {rom some factory. A. K. Hall, charged with larceny as bailee by Jerry Powers, was placed on trial before Justice D'Wolf yesterday. The prosecution states that he gave Hall some time ago a note for $150 for collec- tion; Hali disposed of the paper for $35, and re- fuses to account to him for this or any other Smount. Han derends by retorting thet Powers waa indebted 1o him for services rendered, and di- rected the sale of the note and the applcation of the proceeds to the payment of such indetteaness. ‘The case i8 in progress. At aa early hour yesterdsy morning Officer G. 'A.

At 7:30 last evening Charles C.-Otto, dealer in Teather and findings, \as brutally assaulted in his store by an unknown thief. The fellow said he wished to purchase some Insts, and when Mr. Otto leaned over the counter to get eome lusts. he was seized by the thief, whostruck him stunming blow on the Tight temple with a lust. Mry. Otto ran to her husband's assistance and as her strength proved 100 tauch for that of the thief he ran out and made good his escave.
