THEY SAW A RED FLAG.
The Girls Wondered What 1t Meant, but
Failed to Guess.

tailch 70 Guess.
A bevy of high school girls was in a
car when one looked out and spied a
red flag on tree before residence.
She called the attention Of the other
girls to the flag,
"Oh, loollY" she said. "What on
earth does that mean?'
The girls looked and began to rumi-
nate.
Lets see. ISM a red flag for diph-
theria:' said the one with glasses.
"No; scarlet fever" said another.
"Why, I'm quite sure it's smallpox, "
said the third
"Myl How dreadful! And we came
right past there" iaurmured two of
the girls.
"lf it was black flag, I'd know it
meant yellow fever, but all l know
about red flags is that they mean dam
ger"
"And a white flag means clear, fair
weather, " put in one, anxious to show
her knowledge.
1t might have gone on the rest Of the
way had not a passenger told the girls a
red flag meant an auction. Then they
all said:
"Why, Of course. How stupid !'-In-

The Old Quarters viii Probably Be In Use
Until September
Work on the new city Jail progresses
slowly, and from present indications the
structure will not be ready for occupancy
until late next fall. When the old city
hall property, at present occupied for Jail
purposes, was sold on the 26th of March.
1895, a stipulation was made with the sue
cessful bidder that the city should have
the use of the building six months, rent
free, and the option of six months further
at a rental of 5000 each thirty days. This
time has nearly expired, and some days
ago l. w. Hellman. who owns the prop
erty, gave notice that he would require the
vacation of the building on March 20.
This was done, it is understood, merely
to protect his legal rights in the premises,
and the city will he allowed to occupy the
building until such time as the new Jail is
completed, but not at 5000 per month.
The rent is to be raised, but how much is
uncertain.
Chief Glass was asked as to the expected
time of removal to the new structure aud
replied he hoped to get in on September l.
The present inadequate facilities are
,'eenly felt. In the new bast,le ample
room will be provided, both for officers and
prisoners. Delay of the structural iron
work has hindsred the progress of erec-
t'on, but this will soon be overcome. Pro-
vision is to be made in tho placing of cells
and tanks SO that, should the prison at
any time be too small to Accommodate the
city's wards. at slight expense another tier
or cells can be added
