The CORPORATION SEAL This seal,
which has been in service for many
scores OF years, and which stamped the
bonds of 1872 and 1879, also all papers
re curing the corporation seal, for some
time has been scarcely legible, and, as
it is so frequently used, was today, by
direction of Mayor Simpson, car
ried to Washington by Messenger
J. C. Gill, who was instruc ed to
have a new die made and have it
placed in small press to take the place
of the present cumbersome one, which
weights at least rs pounds and has been
30 long in service. While carrying this
old press from the Mayors to the Au-
iitor's office today it fell apart, and
only the alertness of Messenger Gill
prevented it from carrying away pOr-
ton of his feet, as it did part OF the
stairway in the City Hall.
