LITTLE, But IN DEMAND

City Controller Webster Parry was
devoting much of his time yesterday 10
the preparation of Improvement bends
covering waivers given in lieu of paw
ment for certain improvement made
recently. 1T is rather SURPRISING
said the city controller, "ilcw small
some of these bonds are and yet now
easily the contractors find means to
dispose of them. / made out q bond

will collect four cents interest seIni
annually"
Controller Parry said tha. IN cases
where improvements are made aai
possibly only one property owner ~
fected will file a waiver and the
amount may not be over $40, bend
must be issued just the same and
turned over 10 the contractor, who in
turn, converts il into cash by selling

Improvement bonds. Thev hear

Again Gets in Trouble, This
Time Being Suspended for
Days by Board.
PECULIAR CHARGE MADE
CLAIMED THAT WHILE GOING
HOME FROM DUTY HE SHOT A
RABBIT AT EIGHTH AND
NORTH II STREETS.

On the charge of having shot a rab-
bit in the city limits Police Officer
William Golden has been suspended
for ten days, pending an investiga-
ton. The suspension came at the
hands of the police commissioners
and Officer Golden was notified OF
reported for duty last night Accord
ing to the charge Golden was going
home from duty last Wednesday
morning when he spied a rabbit at
North Sth and II streets. Ii is said
that he could not resist the tempta-
tion to take shot at the bunnie and
blazed away killing H.
First Regarded as Joke.
The report soon spread about of
Golden's act and he was the butt of
much Kidding" as the result of IL.
There was not intimation that the
act would result seriously until last
night when his suspension came 1t
is said that a small boy was nearby
at the time of the shooting.
Officer Golden was asked last night
regarding the charge He was non
committal but said that he would
abide by the decision of the police
board. Golden said that the charge
of killing the rabbit was brought by
some one who had an AK to grind.
He said that an officer could not be
on the force for twenty years without
making enemies.
49,
The state law governing the use
of fire arms within city limits is
very rigid. and should the charges
against Officer Golden be proven the
police commissioners have 1t within
their power TO dismiss him perman-
entity or temporarily SO without pay
Whether the matter of the officers
using his gun, on Earl Huntington on
East Main street, last week had any
effect upon the suspension. Chief
Bailey would not say but 1t is thought
that that episode had some influence
on the decision of the commissioners.
Not long ago Edward Killing
brought charge of assault and bat
terry against Officer Golden and the
case is now pending. Killing claimed
that Golden beat him without rea-
son.
