An impromptu farce comedy was en-
acted last evening before the city council
committee on police and fire departments.
The entertainment was furnished by At
torney Charles o. Whittemore and
Thomas F. Thomas, jr. When the finale
came, it was generally conceded by the
few who occupied the committee room.

role of one who was ingeniously attempt

THE CLAIMANTS SIDE.
A majority of the committee was pres
ent. namely Councilmen. Howe, Buckle
and Robertson. Mr.. u. Fl. Sharr. of the.
firm of Snarr & Sons, was present TO
asking that Patrolman Joseph A. Busby
be compelled to make an effort 10 liqui-
date his indebtedness in the sum of $2l7
20 the grocery firm. From Mr.. Snarrs
books IL appeared that the last charge
was entered in March, 1897. long before
Busby became blue-coated peace officer.
Mr.. Thomas had an interest in the claim
and had attempted 10 collect II so that
he could apply any payments made on in
debtedness owing 10 him from Snarr &
Sons.
In order to substantiate his contention.
Mr.. Snarr asserted that license paying
merchants should have the protection of
the city fathers, whose duty II is to see
to it that city officials and employees do
not take refuge from paying their just
debts in the fact that their wages cannot
be garnisheed. For reasons of family
relationship and because of promises TO
pay, Mr.. Snarr explained. his claim had
not been pressed 10 judgment when it
could have been.

tractive. Give the young people II

chance TO learn what is going on the
world over every day, SO that they
will feel that they are the equals in

hind young townsfolk in this respect.

great convenience the isolation,
the dull, prosy slowness, the igno-
rance of important everyday happen

ton of growing crops throughout the
country will disappear. Every farmer
who SO desires can keep himself as well
informed on all matters OF interest as
the city man. Letters containing mat
ters of great Importance will not lie in
the post Office only few miles away
for week or more, as very often they
do in busy times, but they will reach
their destination promptly, and be
promptly answered. In fact, the farm

business world and with his relatives
and friends almost as the city man nov
is.-Farm and Fireside.
