The city had on deposit with the
bank on Dec. 81 $1O4, 1856 in the shape
of monthly accounts and SAT 900 as in
terest account, making total of $151,-
456.56. The amount of $104 456. S. the
monthly account with the bank, was
SO much in excess of the sum deposited
in other banks that City Treasurer
Horst was asked at the time by a
G. 0 b reporter, why such was the
case. The city treasurer explained
notable increase in the city funds on
deposit in this way: William Hamm
of the Hamm Brewing company, the
treasurer said, had deposited $4,000 as
payment for liquor licenses on Dec
20, and rather than disturb banking
affairs, he, as city treasurer, had re-
deposited the amount in the Alleman-
MIA bank. This was the explanation
given by Mr. Horst for the increased
deposit in the Allemannia.
No bond, so far as could be learned
yesterday, has been given by the Allie
MAMMA to the city since it organized
under the present name the city
authorities evidently having deemed
the bond given by the Commercial bank
on June 25, 1895, as being sufficient to
cover city deposits. The bond given
June %, 1895, is in the sum of $3.50. 600
and the sureties are Henry Ahnemann
$4,000; William Hamm $50, 900; Haskell
G.. Fischbein $4,000; Russ c. Munger
$4,000; Arthur E. Whitney $4,000; F.
r. Well $25,000 E. Vanish $4,000;
Moses E. Clapp 1000; Henry A.
Castle $4,000; Timothy Reardon $50, 600;
Bernhard Kuhl 100000. The name of
Timothy ReardOn, one of the bonds
men, has been erased from the bond
by the drawing of an ink line through
his name

WASHING BLANKETS.

1t Should Ne Done ON . bright, Sum

Blankets have, to large extent, taken
the place OF the heavy and unwholesomc
comforts for bed covering. An excel
lent article Of pure wool is now sold at
price SO low that they are within reach
of moderate purses. They are lighter
than comforts, and when soiled, can be
thoroughly cleaned while the comforts
cannot hH'."'
Spring is the best season for wash
ing blankets. If the binding across the
ends is worn, remove it and rebind, or
finish the edges with a border done in
blanket stitch'w WITH q Germantown yarn.
Cut double blankets apart, as they are
custer to handle than when. they are to-
gcther. Any spots that are greasy or
badly soiled should be removed with
benzlne before putting in water, and
the work is greatly lessened if the
blankets are thoroughly shaken to re-
move the loose dirt and dust
Choose bright, sunshiny day to
wash and if a gentle breeze is blowing,
so much the better. FilIyour tubs half

the latter shrinks and draws it up. A
good washing machine and wringer are
great aids in this work and blankets

If necessary, three suds, prepared just
as the first was, and when clean, rinse
through several waters that have been
heated the same temperature as the
waters in which they were washed.
Hang them on a strong clothesline with
an abundance of clothespins, allowing
them to lap over just enough to fasten
them securely. Shake them to remove
the wrinkles and let them hang until
thoroughly dry. When they are
brought in, fold evenly and place under
heavy weights for day or two. They
are then ready to put away for the sum-
mer, and don't forget to put plenty of

If One Town Goes Dry the Oar Can
he Moved Into the Other Town.
In selecting the site for the Grand
hotel in the Catskills, on the top of
Pine Hill mountain, the owners evil
IDENTIFY had in mind the vagaries of the
excise vote. 1t is not generally known
that the Grand hotel stands on the bour-
Diary line of Ulster and Delaware coun-
ties, the boundary line passing almost
through the middle Of the hotel build
ing. The hotel therefore is in the town
ship Of Sbandaken. Ulster county, and
in the township of Middletown, Della
ware county. Should Shandaken go
dry, the hotel bar could foe moved to
Middletown, and vice versa. Advantage
has been taken of this fact by the no..
tel owners to keep down the assess
ment, says the New York Sun. - .'
The assessors of Shandaken placed n
valuation on the property of $50,000,
but agreed to assess it for only $25 GOO
if the hotel would remain in that town
ship. This year they have raised the
hotel assessment to 100000, and the
owners have notified them that they in

made much lower by the town of Mid

township are going to try to have bill

ing this hotel property into special
district, and giving to the stockholders
the privilege of voting as to where they
shall be assessed or whether they shall
be assessed at all. =.

The GIee CIub CONCERT.

The Finnish Gee Club gave their fourth
annual concert at the Opera House last
evening. and, as a musical event, it was
fully up to the standard established at
the previous concerts given by this poDu-
lar musical organization.
The attendance might have been larger
but this was accounted for by the many
other attractions which are on the
boards this week. All who were present.
however. were well pleased with the en-
tertalnment. The program was a varied
one. The Glee Club rendered several of
their choicest selections, among them
being "A Summer Night, and "FiddIe-de
Dee" the Lutteman great success, both
of which were heartily encored.
The City band also rendered three se-
lections and were heartily applauded.
The grand American Fantasia and the
reception" by Prof. Johnson on the
cornet with the band accompaniment,
were particularly enjoyable. The ladies'
quartette, composed OF Misses Allen,
Bova, EDgstrom aud Swanson, rendered
very pretty selection. The Spinning
Wheel quartette from the opera Mar
tha,' was also good and Mrs. Whisler's
solo was given "a liberal encore. The
Viking Gee Club was unable TO attend
and double quartette rendered their
number on the program.
Perhaps the most enjoyable number
on the program was the scene from Fl
Trovatore, when the solos we're rendered
by Miss Childs and Mr.. Eric Ericsson,
both OF their voices being excellent and
the selections rendered giving them
ample opportunity to display them to
advantage. The other opera scene was
from Faust" and Mrs. f. n, Bosom
and Prof. Mustonen took the parts in a
most excellent manner
To Prof. Mustonen, more than any one
else, belongs the credit for the entire sue
cess OF the entertainment. Miss Alice
Nelson acted as accompanist during the
evening

and the men still kept shoveling the dirt
on the sidewalk until the pile got so large
that the temporary scantlings could not
hold II and the sidewalk gave way on
top OF the men. One OF the men was
caught by the walk and IL was thought
that his leg was broken. Two OF the
Others were also struck by the walk. but
escaped with slight scratches.
A moment after the accident happened
it seemed as II half the town was on the
spot and the report quickly spread that
one of the men was fatally hurt. This
proved TO be a gross exaggeration. DIR.
Rodi was called after the man had been
removed to his home aud he found that
the injuries were not nearly 80 bad as
was reported. the leg being but badly
bruised. The bone was not broken. The
men were employed by Procissi X Co.
and the carpenter work was being done
by Contractor n. Bray, Mr.. Vertin, who
was standing on the sidewalk at the time
the men at work, fell in with
the walk, but escaped without scratch.

sidewalk Gave Away,

Some OF the men at work at vertin
Bros. putting in the new sidewalk were
injured yesterday afternoon by the side
walk giving in on top OF them. One OF
them, named T. Mattencci, had bis leg
badly injured, but the Others were not
seriously hurt and will be laid up short
time. IL seems that the sidewalk, which
is very heavy one and is to form the
top OF the store when it is built out, was
recently put in and was supported tenn
porarily by small scantliDgs. All the
ground from under the walk had not vet
been taken out and the men who we're
injured we're at work under the sidewalk
shoveling the dirt out. In order to faciI-
itate the work the men threw the dirt on
the sidewalk from where the teams load.

A Managing Widow.

A certain young widow of Indianapo-
lis, who has just changed her weeds for
brighter hues, gave dinner party not
long ago, says the Indianapolis Sentinel.
The rooms were decorated with great
profusion of flowers. Roses in masses
were on the mantels, and the dinner
table fairly blossomed In fact, the
abundance of flowers was unusual. One
of the guests could restrain her curiosity
no longer, and when the dessert was
brought in said:
We'll, Mrs. Blank, you're rather
spreading on tie flowers tonight -
Eyes, replied the fair widow bright
ly, "but tomorrow | am going to take
them out TO Crow Hill and put them on

special Council Mee,ing.

The village council of Red Jacket met
in special session at the council rooms
yesterday afternoon with all the alder
men except Mr.. Kemp present. The meet
ing was for the purpose OF considering
the advisability OF erecting permanent
building for the purpose OF keeping the
city property, which is liable to suffer
from the effects OF our winter climate, as
the council committee did not feel like
going ahead with the matter without
the sanction OF the entire council.
After talking the matter oyer it was
decided to erect rough building. but it
will be very inexpensive structure and
one that can be taken down again IN the
spring. The committe was instructed to
go ahead with the work at once.

PROMOTED FOR GALLANTRY.
A New York Policeman Rewarded For
Catching u Burglar.


Hon. Theodore Roosevelt writes an
article entitled 1.-The Roll of Honor of
the New York Police" for The Century
Mr.. Roosevelt says:
Early in our term we promoted pa
trolman to the grade of roundsman for
activity in catching a burglar under
rather peculiar circumstances. / hap
pened TO note his getting burglar one
week. Apparently he had fallen into
the habit, for he got another the next
week. In the latter case the burglar es-
capped from the house soon after mid
night and ran away toward Park ave-
nue., with the policeman in hot chase.
The New York Central railroad runs
under Park avenue, and there Is IL
succession of openings in the top of the
tunnel. Finding that the policeman
was gaining on him, the burglar took
desperate chance and leaped down one
of these openings at the risk of break
ing his neck. Now the burglar was
running for his liberty, and it was the
part of wisdom for him TO imperil life
or limb, but the policeman was merely
doing his duty, and nobody could have
blamed him for not taking the jump.
However, he jumped, and in this par
ticular case the hand of the Lord was
heavy upon the unrighteous The bur-
glar had the breath knocked out Of him,
and the "cop" didn't. When his victim
could walk, the officer trotted him
around TO the station house, and week
afterward he himself was promoted, it
appearing upon careful investigation
that he was sober, trustworthy and
strictly attentive TO his duty.
Here again it seems TO me that we
followed the eminently common sense
plan of promoting man who had earn
ed his promotion by faithful and dis
tinguished service and by proved supe-
rior capacity. We cared no more for
the policeman's views ON the tariff or
the currency than we did for those of
the burglar. Our interest and the inter
est of citizens generally was to have the
officer catch that burglar and otherwise
do his duty. If he did his duty, we
were for him; if he did not, we were
against him. In neither event did we
care whethe" The officer had or had not
the backing the congressional delega-
ton of TIE CT Cr the central committee
OF the county If course, as before, this
exposed us ~ Wild outcries from the
local politica. bosses and heelers and
much sneering "civil service reform"
but all the outcries and sneers meant
was that we were doing our duty as de-
cent men and as public officials, with
some slight appreciation of what was
implied by the words honor and up
Brightness. Political organizations are
eminently necessary and useful, but
when they are seized by professional
spoils politicians of low morality, who
run the machine" in their own inter
ests, who clamor against honesty and
defy decency and rail against that de-
vice for obtaining clean government
which is known as civil service reform,
then it is time for all citizens who
believe in good citizenship to rise in re-
volt.

Five Youthful Offend
ers Arrested by
Officer SilvoIa.
Two Go To, Industrial school


OF the five boys who were arrested by
Officer Silyola yesterday for violating the
truancy law, two we're sentenced to the
S ate Industrial School at Lansing until
they become Is years Of age. The other
three were allo wed their freedom after
spending lew hours in the village jail.
The new law places the age at which
boys can be sent to the school two years
above what it was before and three OF
these youthful offenders came under the
limit oi the law. Officer Silyola, who
looks after the truancy cases, says these
youngsters were the toughest lot he has
come across since he has been in the bus
mess. They have not been TO school
more than three times this fall and he
has exhausted every means in his power
to bring them to time, but his efforts
have been Ruthless. He says the boys
parents have done their best, but they
run away from home and sometimes
stay away for several days at time and
cannot be found.
County Agent Miller gave the smaller
boys good talking to and finally al
lowed them to leave the court room with
the promise that they would go to |
school in the future. Sam Salmonson |
and Albert Saari, the two older boys. |
we're given the sentence, but we're allowed |
another chance and sentence was sus-
pended during their good behavior.
Young Hendrickson, the boy who stole
the satchel from the Calumet lady, was
sentenced 10 the scnool and will be taken
down in few days. The money which
was in the satchel hasnot yet been found,
but the grip was recovered. The boy
says that he gave some of the money TO
some OF his fellow playmates and the re-
mainder to man whose name he did rot
know. The boy seemed rather delighted
at the prospect OF going to the Indus
triol School while the other youngsters
did not like the idea at all.
Young Hendrickson 8 mother says that
she can do nothing with the boy, that he
will NOT stay home and likes to wander
about the streets
