July.
A good deal of unclaimed property col
lects in the office of the Chief of Police
every year, and in order to make room
for future accessions, it has to be sold or
disposed of in some manner. 1t was
found necessary, in order to do this, that
an ordinance be drawn covering the
points desired. This ordinance was
passed last Monday by the Council, and
has been signed by the Mayor. 1t re-
quires that, on the first Monday of June,
the Chief of Police present list of un-
claimed property to the Council, that
the property shall be advertised for sale
for ten days, the sale to take place on
some fixed day in July. The first list to
be disposed of will be quite large, and
will contain all sorts Of curious articles.
