MAYOR SIGNS TRADING
STAMP ORDINANCE
Fight Will Be Carried Into the Courts
at Earliest Possible Moment.

The trading stamp ordinance, passed
recently by both bodies of the city
council, was yesterday approved by
Mayor Smith, and will be in force be
ginning Monday morning, when the
measure will be officially published.
A license fee of $500 a year is i'm
posed upon the trading stamp compa-
MES and 500 a year on all stores ham
ding them. Refusal to pay the license
will lay the company or the merchant
liable to arrest. To bring about a test
at the earliest possible moment, it. is
claimed that the trading stamp people
will themselves cause an arrest and
fight the ordinance upon the ground
that it is unconstitutional. The city
will prosecute the cases. One company
is said to be willing to pay the license
A letter was received by the city
clerk yesterday from Rockford. H.,
asking for copy of the ordinance, the
statement being made that the mer-
chants of the Illinois town desire to Sc
cure the passage of a like measure.

CRANK OR ANARCH
WRITES MAYOR SMITH
Warning of Big Doings Comes Out of
Holland on a Postal Gard.

A postal card received by Mayor
Smith yesterday, and supposed to come
from Lastau, Holland, to all appear
ances contains a mysterious anarchistic
message. On the card this was writ
ten:
Hon. Sir: Trusting to your kindness
/ take the liberty to beg you for the
favor not to hide these news to all, the
poor and rich, young and old, for we
cannot but speak the things which we
have seen and heard
THE marvels of magnificent, divine
splendOr and the Sheltering light of holy
angels (the broad bough Of a pine
burned everywhere, golden shining and
lively sparkling), am seeing every day
and hour, too. Of course, III. Tim, iv., 1:
For this cause bow my knees (condi-
tons demandD unto the Father our
Lord, who promised: am with you
always, even unto the end of the world.
Therefore you will be blessed if you not
will suppress my statement Honor
be unto our God f0reVer!@JeS.
XIV, 1924; Joel ill.,, 5. III. H"
1t will be noticed that the writer is
very anxious that his message be made
public, leading to the inference that
he had some reason in desiring that
this be done, The references to the
OlU1O, except Tie O1tSs
Jes. xiv, 1924, bear out this SUPPOSE
ton. The first reference is:
Il charge thee therefore before God,
and the Lord Jesus Christ, Who shall
judge the quick and the dead at His
appearing and His kingdom
The second reference is supposed to
be Isaiah XIV, 1924, Withdrawals:
Il have sworn by myself. the word
has gone out Of my mouth in righteous
ness and shall not return, That unto
Me every knee shall bow, every tongue
shall swear.
Surely, shall one say, in the Lord
have 1 righteousness and strength;
even to Him shall men come, and all
that are incensed against Him shall be
ashamed"
The last reference, Joel ill.,, 5, reads:
Because We have taken my silver
and my gold, and have carried into
your temples my goodly pleasant
things"
The postal card is of the universal
series, being good in any of the coun-
tries in which the postal agreement is
in force. The writing is that of man.

RIVER BOULEVARD
WORK ALL WASTED
Board of Public Works Action Makes
New Beginning Necessary.

The decision of the board of public
works to annul all proceedings for the
condemnation of land for the extern
sion Of the Mississippi river boulevard
to Seventh street sends the entire
question back to the park board, and
makes necessary the beginning of new
proceedings if the plan is to be carried
out. 1t was necessary to take this &C
ton, as the time limit for possible con-
demnation has expired. The question
of condemnation will now be consfd-
cred by the park board, which will not
order a second effort at condemnation
unless the property owners make a
proposition offering the land much
cheaper than they have as yet.11 ~

stituent, Col. George c. Knoche, they
were shocked.
But there is more to come. Mr.
Elder was interviewed by h e G 10 b e
yesterday, and while attempting to
Justify his course, he put the case in
the light that will cause a trial in the
courts. He said:
Il was standing facing Knoche. I
walked up to him, caught him by the
collar with my left hand and hit him
in the face three times with my right.
Knoche did not raise his hand to de-
fend himself"
That the last of the affair has not
been heard is evident from the state
ment Of City Prosecutor Helmes that
he will issue a warrant on application
from Col. Knoche, particularly on the
strength of the admission of Elder
that his opponent did not defend him
self.
The story Of those present and wit
Messing the assault is that Elder sud-
denly jumped forward and seized
Knoche, striking the blows before the
latter fairly realized what was hap
pening. Some of these commented
that it was impossible-that the sur
roundings had something to do with
the sudden determination of Elder to
make the attack.
And Col Knoche, who is a member
of the governors staff and a prominent
Republican, is not idle. Through his
agent he yesterday gave notice that he
will at once bring action to eject Elder
from the store room the latter occu-
pies as salesroom for wall paper, the
agent having found from an examina-
ton of the records of the city clerk
that the stock is mOrtgaged to War.

and her brother, james Jolly. Miss
jolly was formerly employed in this
city, hut had returned to her parents
home in Spotswood. She was known
to be slightly unbalance in mind, ani
was carefully watched, but, two or
three days ago, she slipped out un-
awares, and came to this city, where
she has sister employed.
Yesterday morning, shortly before

an acquaintance in Water street, clad
