City Arbitrator.

Sheriff Kinney lately occupied a new
position which he fills with the utmost
efficiency. He was called in by two
ladies' to settle a difference in a bill.
One claimed that the amount was 40
cents, while the other claimed the
debt was but 20 cents. After having
an excited argument on both sides of
the contest the Sheriff plunged into
his W pocket and produced 20 cents,
the amount Of the contention.
The preferred money was Indignantly
refused by both parties at first, but the
Sheriff explained that he was City Ar
bitratOr and that the noun really
came from a sinking fund that had
been set aside by the City dads: under
such conditions the amount was re-
ceived and the matter squared"
The Sheriff yesterday refused to set lie
on the same lines Over d dispute by two
prominent men, as he claimed the
sinking fund had been exhaused.
