The members of the comuittee explained their reasons for their selection of the Fowler & BeindorPs plans, known as the “Gate City"” plan, The first reason was that these architects have made provis 1ons for rooms for every city oMicer, and have them espe- ally arranged to an advantage. In none of the other plans were such provisions so_well made The cost of the various buildings planned was, of course, not made public. 1t has been ascertained, however, that Fowler & Beindor{ estimate the cost of the structure at §345,000, Cleves Bros. #30,000, and the chcapest plan was that presented by “Veritas,” which is estimated to cost £230.,000. e Warner’s Safe Cure cures n 3 ness. insomnia, hysteria and neuralgia..

' Before his departire, however, he turned his office as administrator of the Gray estate over to Jacobs, butonly re- ported what wuas then in his possession, Subsequent discoveries revealed the fact that ho had handied something like $15,00). Later the heirs and creditors demanded a showing, and, as Jacobs, inthe meantime, had died, nis wife Lillian was calied on to make the final report. As Geis haa absconded, the creditors thought that Jacobs shoula be hela to pay the $10,000 us his bondsman, but when the report was turned in Mrs. Jacobs had failed to enter that itent. As u consequence, the heirs and creaitors nstituted suit to re- cover it. At that e Willam O, I lomew was judge of the county court. decided that the bondsman was liable and gave judgment against Mrs, Jacobs for the $10,000, Of course, she excepted to his rul- ing and took an appeal to the district court, which supported the decision in the other court. The case was then carried to the supreme court, where the decisions of both the lower tribunals were sustained. The case, therefore, has just been returned to its original starting place, with instructions for Judge Shields to enter up an order that Lillian Jacobs pay over to Charles H. Brown, second administrator, de bonis non of the Gray estate, the sum’ of §15.300. The first Saturday in June has been designated by the court as the day for a hearing of arguments, if the attorneys interested desire to make any, Ahother chapter 15 about to b aaded to the sensational divorce case of Hattic New- man against her husband, Jesse, the police- wman, Lawyer N, J. Burnham will file four or five afidavits, this morning, i the district court in support of the original application for legal separation and for an injunction re- straining Newman from disposing of or on- cumbering his property during the pendency of the suit. The first afiidavit is that of Mrs. Newman, who avers that her husband communicated a loathesome discase to her, of which malady sho is still a sufferer; that he has been extremely cruel, by abusing her and knocking her down on several occa- sions, aud driving her away from home. The wife relates her woes halt a dozen pages of typewriter. Her motber, Mrs. Eliza Murray, in an afidavit, asserts that she was aware of the difficulties existing botween her daughter and husbaud. Substantialiy, the mother states that Newman abused his wife in a horrible mauner; that he choked her one time for thlg to & mourner's beach at church, and that he apphed vile language to her. A sister of the plantiff, named Mar- garet Watson, in her testimony, declares that she heard Newman use vile and abusive language to his wife; that he has vicious and vulgar habits; that he has threatened to kill his wife, and that she was driven from home. Ou this occasion the wife weut to the afiant's bouse to escape Newman's wrath, and to prevenu him from carrying out his throat, When the plaintiff arrived at her sister’s home, it is asserted that she had been beaten in a shameful mauner, and that blood was stream- ing over her face and clothes. It is (pimed that he threatened to kill her mother also. Fearing that he would put his threats into effect, the wife went back to him.

M. Anderson, the county commiss was arraigned on the charge of > Simon Kahn, Av t00d by his side to answ “Do you plead guilty or not guilty?” asked the judge. : “Not guilty,” said the defendant, and a murmur of surpriso circled around the court room which was filled to overflowing with prominent citizens. A trial was cailed for and Mr. Kahn, the assaulted person, also the elevator boy who witnessed part of the row, and Mr. Anderson, were put upon the ituess stand. Both Mr. Kuhn and the ele- vator boy testified that on the cihth inst., in the clovator of the First National bank Mr. Kuhn was koocked down by County Commissioner Anderson. Other cvidence was brought in to prove that Mr. Anderson used language and manuers unbecoming a gentleman. When Mr. Anderson was put on the stand, he assumed a sanctimonious air and asserted struck Kahn, whereupon the sccuting witness turned to General Smith, the city attorney, and said something that ‘sounded like a' denial. Anderson suid that his absorbing ambition at the par- ticuiar moment in question was to get the mortgage record book. He said three or four times that they were “jangling over tho book! and that “after Kalin said he aid not “wish to make a holy show of himself on the street,” they rcturned to Sloman's oftice. Anderson said he did nothing but looi at the book and haug to it. He did not know whetber kis son or Kahn struck first, as he was hanging on to the book. His in tive at that particular moment was to regain vosscssion of *‘the book,” and in every other regard his memory was fauitys His oft re- peated expressian, *‘the book,” at first caused a smite, and finally a round of laugii- ter, every time iv was uttered. At intervals he would look appealing to Kahn, as though he wanted to kiss and make up. & 'he trial was continued in the afternoon and County Clerk Roche was put upon the stand. His testimony had but little bearing on the case, relating only to the book oyer which the fight was held. At the conclusion of the trial the attorneys gave a brief summing up of the case. Judge Berlka stated that it was a clear case of as- sault, and assessed a fine of $S and costs each upoa’ the commissioner and his son. The costs will amount to ubout §25.

Depending ‘upon the ~ honesty of uttorneys in matters of this kind ana having more work on their hands than they can do, the judges generally make these entrigs without reading the de- crees.
