There Is a rustle nnd hustle, a .hti*
tie and almost a tussle among the of
ficial* and office holders at the city
hall nt present and it Is all occasioned
by the proximity of the n*w year nnd
the desire of these men to have every
thing In ship shape order when 1905
rolls ’round. A visit paid to the bends
of the various department* Friday af
ternoon resulted In the discovery of all
the men at wcrk behind desks piled
high with biisiupHs records.
One of the men who was at wcrk
was approached and saluted with r.
casual "Howdy.” and "What’a doing?"
Another dive nt a batch of lettera and
papers was followed by a qlck reply.
' Excuse me. please, but you see that
Tin really too busy to talk. Every

City Clerk T. L. Idassenberg was
later approached and he was discov
ered seated behtnl hie high desk
which was piled with new badges to
be portioned out among the boot
blacks. hack drivers and other* of
similar callings.

rnan Dure. From remarks dropped,
however, considerable additions must
be made before the quurters will be
acceptable. The five rooms on the gal
lery or second floor were considered too
small and wlthour sufficient light. The
suggestion was made that these rooms
could be used for document or file
rooms, nnd other temporary offices,
taking tip much of the gallery on the
Flrnt street side, be constructed. On
the lower floor it would also be neces
sary to add a largo room for the grand
Jury.
In addition to these improvements It
Is necessary that the building nhould
be heated by steum and additional
sanitary fixture* placed in the build
ing.
A suggestion was made by one of the
touring party after the inspection, that
may he Important Instead of the oc
cupation of the t auditorium building
by the United States court, the old city
hall be devoted to tho purpose. By
this plan the Judge could occupy, for
Instance, the roomn now occupied by
the treasurer or city marshal, using
the council chamber ns a court room,
and the rooms In the second story for
tho court officials. In this way. so the
suggestion goes, there would he no
connection with the city officials, all
of these having offices in the audito
rium addition. Just how this can be
worked out was not stated.
At any rate. It will he a day or
before It is definitely known whnt will
be done.
PARK KEEPER HUSLEY
IS ON THE WAR-PATH
A Large Chicken Hawk Has Been Re

Officer ie Now 8eoking Revenge.
Within the^last eight day* Park-
Keeper Hulsey’s poultry farm at Cen
tral City park hau been almost deci
mated. the pet bird* have been taken,
and those that are left are In a stage
of fright nnd refuse to respond to the
call of the keeper except at meal
limes. Previous to eight days ago the
bird* would come at his beck and call
but now a feeling of fear has over
taken them .and all because one
mammoth chicken hawk ha* been hov
ering In the neighborhood wreaking
dire vengeance upon the feathered In
habitants.
The first depredations of the hawk
occurred over a week ago nnd one or
two of the pet chickens were number
ed with the missing at the next meal
time. On the following day a couple
more failed to feast on corn and drink
with the rest at the watering trough.
The decrease wns noticed and a watch
for the marauder, whatever It might
be. was kept. Two or three days ago
the chicken-terror was first spied. It
was sailing high over the lot. Circling
around nnd around it gradually les
sened the distance »o the *-ound and
then its identity was discovered. It
was a large chtcken hawk.
Officer Hu bey has borrowed a gun
of a bore reaembling a small cannon
and has loaded it to the killing point.

Beware of Imitations

HIS CLIENT FREED
AS HE LABORED
Two Factors Worked to Secure Liberty
of a Negro—The Lawyer Secures
Writ but Friends Pay tha Fine.
When the attorney who was em
ployed to secure the release of one
Steve Frederick from the chalngang
on a writ of habeas corpus, presents
his papers to Judge Speer this morn
ing he will be surprised to learn that
his work was fruitless.
It seems th.it several days ago Steve
was fined $20 In the recorder’s court
for being drunk and disorderly,
went to the gang In default of pay
ment of the fine.
It further seems thta S»eve has two
sets of friends. One set had evidently
heard of the habeas corpus way
striking off the shackles, and employed!
an attorney to secure a writ for the*!
purpose. While the attorney was I
rummaging over the records of the po-J
lice court and preparing his papenf
the other set of friends were passing
the hat around. They managed to s-?|
cure the twenty dollars which the;
paid into the hand* of the station
grant, and by night Steve was on
ing his freedom.
In the meantime the attorney ft»li j
spare writ of habeas corpus on
hands.
