Mrs Walsh,s CnUa

One OF the thorns in the careers OF the
Haughville town officials has been the re-
peated violation of Mrs. Walsh Of Shelf
field avenue, in allowing her COWS to run
at large. Many times have her cows been
impounded and many more times have they
escaped the disgrace but all to no effect on
Mrs. Walsh. She has appeared many times
at the Town Board meetings and harangued
the board for impartiality, as she claimed
in impounding cattle. Word was received
yesterday that her cows were on a foraging
expedition and were making havoc with
well-stocked barns and stables that per-
CHANGED to have insecure faStenings. The
marshal heard of the proceedings, and as
the Offense had been so frequent he de-
cided to try the effect of law on Mrs
Walsh and she will be tried before Justice
Martin tomorrow

THE REFUNDING ORDINANCE.
1t Is brought Up Again to Prevent
Any Legal bubble

Mayor Denny, upon examining the record
OF the Council meeting at which the re-
funding ordinance for the 100000 series of
bonds was passed, found that Mr. Stott
was not present at the meeting which
was special one. The ordinances, both
the repeating and the refundng were
passed the same night they were intro
duced. The city charter provides that an
ordinance cannot be passed the same night
IL is introduced except by unanimous con-
sent The Mayor thought the law might
be construed that unanimous consent meant
unanimous consent of all the MEMBERS
not merely the unanimous con-
sent of those present at the
meeting. In order that there NAV
be no bubble, he had the ordinances re-
turned without his approval, so that they
could be again introduced and passed in
strict conformity TO law. The ordinances
were put before the Council again, and
special meeting has been called for tonight
to put the ordinances on their final pas
sage.
