Passed On Twice,

The bond of the new City Collector
and Treasurer, Mr.. Winson g. Gott,
was last night acted upon by the City
Council in exactly the same manner
for the second time. The bonds of all
officials must, under the City Code, be
acted upon by the City Council within
a certain time. To come within this
time limit after his election it was
necessary for Acting Mayor Frank
Fl. Thompson to call special meet
ing of the Council last week.
The Counsellor, however, was not
present at this meeting, being at Bel
air attending the encampment. and
under the provisions of Section 3. Ar
ticle XII, he must pass upon the suffi-
cheney of all bonds of officers. To
make assurance doubly sure, therefore,
the bon of ..Mr Gott was taken up
and passed by the Council last night,
having already been accepted by the
body in special session.

Sands And Band

Although they are forced under the
regulations to obey, it is rather reluc-
tantly that the members of the Naval
Academy Band yesterday put in the
extra hour of outdoor music called
for by special order from Admiral
Sands, superintendent of the Academy.
Hereafter the band will be compelled
to play certain number of musical
selections at the afternoon concerts
irrespective of the time this may take,
instead of merely playing for an
hour as heretofore. The order of the
new head OF the Academy is under
stood not to have met with favor of
the bandsmen, many of whom say that
this is giving them too much work
for the salary they receive.
