Talking About lhe Recent
Fall Of PlumS.
INTERESTING COLLECTION.
The Veteran Firemen's Enjoyable Al.
fair--Votes That Come High.

sion Of the city council, or at least some
OF them, came as surprise to many OF
the people of the city. DR.. Mann had
been thought OF as possibility for health
officer, but the majority OF the people ex-
pected the place would be awarded to DR..
Malo. 1t was considered before the meet
ing settled thing that Mr.. Bosworth
would be appointed city solicitor. OF
course the fact that all the plums were
awarded to Republicans did not create
any surprise, as the precedent of giving
the spoils to the victims had been made
by the previous appointments.
Regarding the salaries bill, nothing was
done which alters the attitude OF the two
bodies. Each branch has appointed
committee to meet and confer regarding
the matter with view to some settlement
OF the difficulty, but the appointment OF
such a committee Is not likely to change
the opinions OF the members OF either Or
ganizatIon regarding sucn matter and,
therefore, whether or not these commit
tees will accomplish any noteworthy re-
suits is a matter OF conjecture.
An Interesting Collection.
The collection of weapons taken from
different prisoners at the local police
station has grown from time to time un.
til at present It might be termed small
arsenal. There are number OF revolvers,
most of them OF q cheap make, ranging
in value from 70 cents to so. There Is
all kinds of cutlery there which the police
have wrested from desperate men, from
heavy sabers and saber bayonets to butcher
knives and raZors. There is also
wicked looking "double ender" billy
tnk okxos
the collection. This was taken from a
burly negro, after he had succeeded In
badly tnjuring q number OF Armenians
with iG.
Among the reminders OF crime at the
station is q burglars outfit, consisting
OF two dark lanterns, q jimmy, number
OF chiseis and two bit braces which were
used in safebreak king. All these relics
form an extremely interesting collection.
