ro “SHEENEY GEORGE.” He Makes an Earnest Plea for Release on Bail. The Courf Wants to Know if He Can a? Give Bond for $5,000. He Is Regarded as Insane by the Jail OMicials. George Freeman, better known as “Sheeney George,” wbo is under indictment along with Friedourz and Lamb for burgtury and the sut- zequent killing of Otficer Race, appeared before Judge Hawes yesterday morning in the Criminal Court, and created quite a scene. Re bad asked for an audience with his Honor the evening be- fore and bad been seat for. He bad beew prompted in the matter by an idea gained that thy State's Attorney, to whom he had rendered such valuable service in the trials of Friedburg and Lamb, bad forgotten bin. 2 He entered the room in charge of a Bailiff and took position in front of the Court, and all eyes were turned upou him. The Judge had 00 Idea of what he wanted, and for ‘a moment all was silence. *Sheeney" relieved the suspens@ however, by drawing from his pocket a parcel of manuscript, and saying, ina very respectful manner, as he unrolled it: “T would lize to read a statement, your Hon- -_- ‘ne Judge having evidently misunderstood him, replied, “* You inay pass it up to me. “Bia, cir.

Yours truly, HYDE-PARKER. The Planet Jupiter, To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune. DEAnvoRN OnsenvaTory, Cuicaco, Juno 18. —The remarkable red spot which appeared on the southern hemispheres of Jupiter in 1874, and which remained without material change in its shape, size, or position during 1879 and 1850, ous been an object of unusual interest, as affording areudy means for ascertaining the time of the plavet's rotation. As Jupiter hus been # special study for the ast two sears with the great refractor of the uirborn Observatory, It Was a matter of con- siderable interest to avcertain as early as poss: ble whether the spot would continue to be visi- ble during the present opposition. This moraing che telescope was directed on the planet, and, although the suo had already risen, the spot ‘was distinctly seen, and very fair wicrometer meusurements of its longi- tude were secured. The time of transit over Jupiter's ceatral meridian, deduced from these measures, was June 18, 5b. 27.3m. a. m. The computed time of transit of the spot referred w Sept. 25, 1879, and based on the theory of a gradual increase in the time of rotation, due to the sbifting of tho centre of the spot, save for the time of transit June 18, 5h. 2.6m. w m., agreemg substantiully with ob- servation. F The rotation period deduced_by Prof. Colbert. from the observations of 18;9° was Sb. Sim. di2sec. The mean period up to January. Issl, was about one second greater. From Sept. 18%), to June 18 1881, according to our theory, it should be 9h, 51m. 35.46 sec., or an actual period of Wb. 55m. 377s. for the present time. ‘The spot appeured essentially of the same size and shupe as last year, but owing to daylightund the low altitude of the planet, no measures of its size or latitude could be obtained. G. W. HouaH, Director, Passenger Elevators. To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune. Crrcaco, June 18.—The only two ways to pre- vent people from falling down elevator shafts or through hatchways are either to have doors which close themselves, or gates which open and close with the movement of the elevator. ‘The American Express Company, on my ad- vice, adopted the first method on its passenger elevator, and the self-closing doors cau there be seen in use daily. They ure sliding icon dvors, are opened with case by pulling a cord with a handie attached, and close by the slight preponderance of the weibst, of the upper half over that of the lower half as fast as the cord is released. ‘ These doors are ulso fireproof. The Build- ing faw requires that ull elevators in brick shafts (not excepting pussenger elevators) are to be provided with iron doors, having inside latches, which are only to be opened by the conductor to take on or let off passengers or gouds, AS far as iknow. thougt the ordinance has teen in existence four years, Us is the only passenger devator-in this city that complies with the law. No inconvenience bas beea experienced from the use of tightly-closed doors on thls clevator. it is provided underneath with un nir-cushiot whicn excludes aif beat and smell chat inight come from the engine, and is provided witha large skylight and vertilator at the top. The conductor stops by electric signal. The freight-elevator in the same building is provided with the Meaker automutie guard- eates on both sides. They are subjected to the roughest usages that it would secin possible to give under the circumstances. yet subserve tholr purposes very eftectively. There fs x set of these gutes op an clevator in the rear of HO Randolph street that bas been in continuous use three yeurs. and many more of the same are io use in other places. evs remarkable that property-owners sbould be so apathetic about the danger ot ¢le- vators In respect to tire and unguarded open- ings; andeven the Local Board of Underwri ers, in face of many disastrous fires that bave been caused by open clevaters, make no dis- crimination in rates fur or against them. P. B. Wicur. ‘The Michigan Avenue Sidewalk. To the Edttor of The Chicago ‘Tribune. Cuicaao, June 18.~I desire to express my pri- vate opinion publicly, for what it is worth to the public, in regard to the manner in which that beautiful sidewalk is being tnid on the Michigan avenue boulevurd, In many places a filling of trom six to eighteen inches is necessary to bring it to nuntorm grade, and any kind of dirt that is most convenientis used for this tilling, whether it be loam or sané, Now, the result of all this will be that ina very few months, after some bard raius and severe frosts and a sudden thaw, many of the stone taggings will settle down one to two inches out of place, and we will huve a worse sidewalk than a wooden one. While it is all true und right that the Park Commissioners ure to keep it in good repair and in guod order, it will also cost money to do it that should bave been spent in the beximning to do the work. right, which would pave been alsoeconomy. Wht in my judgment sbould have been done was to have mude the ussessinent about $1.50 per lineal foot more than it is, to cover the additional expense of building a continuous party wall, balf outside of street line and half insiae, of sutticient width to receive. the inner end of ‘the tla stone, and also the fence coping. Possibly It would not have been legal to bave included also a uniform pattern of a coping, but it would have been in the spirit of good urder and completeness. As itnow goes, mauy of the property-owners are replacing their old rickety wood fences, and some are only leavimg astone coping. One wan bus a brown stone coping. another a Bed- ford stone, while another is Lemont stone. One will be bigh and thin, another Jow and thick. About tho time they reach 'Thirty-fifth street that portion now taid at Park row will require prying up and resetting. Had there been a party wall built ou the property line continuous, and a stove pier under each joint ut the outside Hagstone Itne, no future expense would be nec- essury to keep as e¥en u surface us is on aay of our dowu-town business sidewalks, and say per- sons tnaking any future ouilding improvements that required the removal of sidewalk would bave to replace the sidewalk as substantially a3 they tound it.

A Ciuizen’s Views on “ Faking.» To the Daitor af The Chicago Tribune, Catcaco. June 17.—I see in your morning’s issue of to-day that Mayor Harrison intends to suppress individuals from distributing circnlars on the streets, alsofrom suspending the same on lamp-posts, ete. I think the idea a good one, as it is very disgusting to sce our sidewalks IIt- erally covered with circulars, hand-bills, etc.. which is a discredit to tho city, and does no good tothe man who pays the printer's bill, The Mayor is right In saying ff a firm wisnes to ad- vertise their business let them do so through the medium of the press, and the amount of money wasted daily in these circulars, dev judiciously throurh the columns of our d: newspapers, would be more beneficial to the ud- vertiser than causing cireulars to be distributed through the streets.- On the other baud, it is disgusting. and in many eases insulting, to seo these men on the streeis shove a clrenlur in the face of a gentleman or ludy, and I have scen them, when people refuse to take them, go s0 far 25 to force them into the pockets of pas- sers-by. é Having given my views on the circular ques- don, and tpproving of our good Mayor's incen- Hons, would it not be a good idea to call Sir, Harrison's attention to the daily nuisance of these peddlers that stand at the street-corncrs, and, in fuct, all along the sidewalk? 1 would especially caf! his attention tv the lemonade stands, which are numerous. Is it justice to the saloonkeepers who pay a big rent, pity a license of $& per year and taxes, not counting otber expenses attached to run their business, to see these stands right under their nosein opposition to their business? These men sre under no ex- pense, save a pal S2ayear. Nodoubt a good muny will say these men ‘are benefactors to the thirsty who wish to quench their thirat in these hot days; this may be very true, but then the drugstores which puy a heavy rent, and ure nnder beavy expenses, would reap the harvest of these " people.—for what {3 better than a glass of soda or mead in these warm days? We must remember that one-half of these lemon- ade stands on tho streets make thelr lemonades from refuse lemons bought on Water street, and ia muny cases acids are substituted in place of lemons, 1 do not speak of saloonkeepers alone, but all other business in genernl, We will take State street, for instance, from Washington to Adams.

Curcaco, June 16.—At the lust regular meet- ing of the Board of the Illinois Training-School for Nurses, beld June 7, it was resolved Unat it wus again time to report to the public on the progress mide in establishing this much-needed institution, and the President was requested to prepare a statement for publication that should give the necessary information to those inter- ested in its welfare. Since our last communication to’ the public the school nas been opened and the pupil nurses areatwurk in two of the wards of the Cook County Hospital. As they bave only been there four wecks, which have been weeks of probation for them, it is too early to make any eriticism on what bas been accomplished in the character ot their work, ey have been there on trial ouly, but the Ludy Superintendent will soon deter- mine how muvy of them she will retain for tho prescribed tuition. She herself is all we hoped for uni expected. Coming to Chicago the Ist of May, she brought with her a3 aids two head nurses, graduates of the Bellevue School, and ladies necustomed to training and nursing in the wards of 4 bospltal. From tho thirty applications that were received by tne Board. eight pupils were selected to form the tirst class. Four of those were phiwed in each ward, with a lady graduate at their head to teach and truin,—tie Lady Superintendent hav- ing charge of the whole enterprise, and assum ing all responsibility for its success. * A house bas been rented and furnished in tho neighborhood of the hospitut, which is the pres- ent bome of these nurses aud their teachers, it huving been found imperacively. uecessary’ to make the hospital the intleld of labor only. ‘Tho fumily as at present: constituted oumbers thir- teen persons: the General Superiutendent, two head nurses, eight pupil nurses, and two serv- ants, é Cook County pays to the training-school asa corporation the same sum whiek thoy have paid heretofore for individual nurses taking charso of these same waras. As they. are unusually crowded just now, there being over tifty patients in each, instead of the forty we were lend to ex- pect, it becomes necessury for us to increase our nuinbor of uurses; therefore, applications for admission are in order. Any one wishing to avail herself o! the vourse of instruetion given at this schoul can apply at once to Migs Brown, 69 #fournoy street, Chicago, who will give imme- dinte attention to such application. The past month kus been one of continued outlay, for everything has bad to be purchased for furnishing and starting the Home. The suim of $1,277.91 bas been expended for this purpose, but the managers early decided that ihe home for these young girls must be a home in we best sense of the term, and everything to pro- vide for the comtort of those who have chosen the arduous profession of a nurse. In the com- ing summer the Board of Managers will direct their best efforts towards finding a permanent bome for this institution. Whether they buy a house or decide to build will depend upon the opportunities offered and advice given by the Finance Committee, vunsisting of gentlemen of Srporences in whom they have entire cunf- fence, In conclusion, the ladies would like to expres: their thanks for the kindness and courtesy tended to them by the Bourd ot Comumission- ere, the hospital authorities, and the medical statf attached thereto. Ali bave been kind and eonsiderate, and we do vot see why this enter- prise, so auspiclousiy beguu, should not go on and prosper until it becomes oue of the most guccessful of our fraternity of charities.
