DEATH OF DR. RICE YESTERDAY. An Attorney Kicks on a Dollar Fee— A Bloodthirsty *“Uncle Tom' Hound Attacks a Baggage- man—Personals. Tricks In All Trades. Alderman Weaver in going the rounds looking after city improvements, made a startling discovery in regard to the curbing being laid on Glen avenue. The curbing is being made of cement, or patent stone, and the inspector who has been watching the progress of the work has been seeing that the men put one heaping bucket full of ce- ment to three heaping buckets of sand. Al- derman Weaver took occasion the inspect the buckets used, and discovered by meas- uring that the bucket used for cement was not so deep, and therefore did not nold as muchas the bucket used for sand. Pursuing his inves! ion further he found that the bucket used for cement had a_false bottom, thus reducing the contents. He kicked out this bottom, and thus exposed the scheme. The little incident has caused no little sti The contractor, B. L. Williams, has lived hore for years, is @ man of financial respon- sibility and established business reputation, and hence the surprise that there should be any such scher in any of his contracts. There has been a good deal of jealousy among the various contractors for curbing, and a great deal of uncertainty felt by the public, for the durability of this sort of curb- ing depends a great deal upon the propor- tions of proper mixing of the cement and sand. Much depends upon the hones of the man doiug the work, and hence there has s been a good deal of suspicion. Such cident as this awakens fresh doubts, and it i8 used against Mr, William as much as possible by competitors, Mr., Williams was seen by a BEg reporter and his side of the matter asked for. He frankly admitted that he had lately been false bottom in his ce nent bucket, sons for so domg. Ho claims th B § ifications, calling for one part of cement to three parts of sand, have been faithfully lived up to by him. He in- vites inspeetion of his stone, and points with pride to curbing put in by him long enough ago to show for itself how well it stands His{claim is that the proportions of sana and cenient named in the city specifications should be determined by weight, and not by bul 1 it _takes 100 pounds of one stone, there should be forty pounds of cement and pounds of sand. 'The cement is kiln- dried. while the sand is moist. The weight of sand should be of kiln-dried sand, d it is on this basis that he has been making his curbin On this basis he claims that he can prove that a bucket of cement, not heaped up, but level full, is equal to a heap- ing bucket of sand. He was making his curbing thus, using one even bucket of cement to thre hmpmp b\l«,kl:li of sand, but i y to the inspector, aping up the bucket of as the sand. He did not deem this fair, but as he had to parify the in- spector, and at the same time not arouse the unjust indignation of thos zens who mizht be watching the work, he concluded to make 1t seem 80, at_the same time protecting his own rights. He thercfore had his men put a false bottom in the cement bucket, so that he could heap up the cement, as he did the 1 who insisted on lm\ hi cement, as wel i little device has now ciused him Whatcver may be thought of the 15 that with this false bottom, ortion of ceme been given by him in all cases.
