somc cases foreign navnl authorities
have offered to pay for valuable bits

own maps, or the unknown depth of
water in some channel. But all that
is asked in return by the hydrograph-

The pilot charts which are issued
monthly by the office are. fnst gain

The prospect Of . return Of perma-

conditions in Porto Rico and Hawaii
favorable to American producing and
commercial enterprises lends addi-
tional interest to some figures just
compiled by the treasury bureau OF

more than a million dollars week in

been looked upon as of high grade,
and for many years has commanded
high prices in the market of Europe,
and the developments of cc;yec culture
In Hawaii during the past few years

that in physical conditions and eli

BY a considerable number of pen
scratches resembling a hay stack and
a chicken coop, connected from top
to top by wavy tow line, and di-
lapidated rail fence just the other side
of the hay stack, Mayor Doyle con-
verted certain sheets of printed paper
into securities valued mt rather more
than $125,O00, Thursday. In other
words, he signed the bonds which
will be sold Saturday to replenish the
city treasury. 1t was tremendous
job At first the Mayor signed each
bond with "A great deal of care and
used the blotter with equal painstak-
ing Then he got tired and called for
help. Police Prosecutor Wells came
to his assistance and blotted the sig
nature of His Honor, and lifted the
bonds to one side as they were sign
ed.

and Mr.. Wells used the blotter on a

over to Mayor Harrison by an un-

tained two street car tickets from a
city employe two years ago. He
learned afterward that the city en-

the interest on the value of the tickets

MAYOR
Still With the
Health Board.
New Law Provides That
He Remain.
Membership Limited to
Five, However.
Does Not Affect Present Board
In Any Way.

The long looked for copy of the new
law regulating the number of mem
bers for Ohio Health Boards has been
received in this city, and the result
Is that there will be no change, at least
during the term Of the present MEM
bers. The law, as amended, provides
that the Board in city Of Akron's
class, shall be composed of five ap-
pointed members, and in addition, the
Mayor shall be president by virtue of
his office. The amendment reducing the
membership to five was effective
May 10, and the two new members of
the Akron Board, Hon. George W..
Grouse and ex-Mayor VIM. Miller,
were appointed May ), SO that in the
opinion of local officials, both will
serve their terms.
When it comes time for more ap-
pointments, however, the membership
will be limited to the five regulated
by the amendment.
The last meeting of the new Board
was more or less formality by rea-
son of the fact that the members did
not know just where they were, as
regards the new law, and there will be
considerable business awaiting the
next meeting. The election of San
itary Policeman and Health Officer
will be among the matters taken care
| of.
