SHOW NO RECORDS
Books Of Board Of Charities and
Corrections Minus an
Account.
A Puzzle Which the City Hospital
Committee Will Try to
Unravel.

Members Of the board of charities and
corrections are puzzled over q certificate
for $1,000 which has recently been pre-
sented by the Archambo Plumbing COM
pany for work on the contagious ward at
the city hospital. There Is no record of
the contract or the certificate on the
books of the board. At least no such
records have been found and the members
OF the board are unwilling to pay the Ger
tihcate. At last nights meeting Of the
board the matter was referred to the city
hospital committee with instructions to
report at q special meeting to be held
next Monday.
That the work was performed is
vouched by the architect, L. A. Lamer-
eaux. The contract was originally let for
plumbing two-story building. Later 1t
was decided to erect three-story build
ing and this swelled the bill for Eek
tras." especially as the price Of materials
went up about the same time. Commits
sioner Orville Rhinehart recalls that a
certificate was ordered by the hospital
committee about year and half ago,
but cannot imagine how the firm obtained
possession of 1t without any records ap-
pearing on the books.
City PhyscIan's Report.
G. e. Kicker suggested different method
of buying Ice for the city hospital. The
ice bill for August, which was a cool
month, was $12544, which he thought was
too much. He reported that he and his
assistants had responded to 395 calls in
the month. The hospital expense had
been $4,399.76. The workhouse expense
had been $1,24S.92 and the poor depart
ment had spent s2,116.s5 in assisting 52s
needy persons.
Workhouse Matters.
Superintendent Frank r. Mcdonald OF
the workhouse reported that notwith-
standing the heavy rains which had been
most disastrous to the potato crop he
would obtain about 2,40O bushels of tubers
The drain which he had constructed last
summer for just such an emergency as
the present one was the means Of saving
twelve acres Of potatoes.

found that his master was using him

extremely unhappy, though he could
not account for it.
One day, while in his pasture, he saw
his master riding down the road in a
vehicle that moved very rapidly,
though there was no horse attached
to it. He made inquiry and learned
what had brought the change in his
life.
