Bogus Tax Collector.
II has twice been reported to the city
treasurer that some imposter, as II seems,
has been attempting to collect. delinquent
taxes of gullible people. In neither one OF
the cases has the man been able to get any
money by this means II may be- however,
that the attempt might prove successful to
persons less acquainted in the city. The
tax collector. states that he has no deputy
and that he has not made an attempt to col
lect outside Of his ONCE as yet. AS a gen.
eral rule the taxes have been paid promptly
in the voluntary way. II any one is ap-
preached by would-be collectors. II would
be well for them to report the matter to
the police and see that the fmposters are
brought to Justice.
Council Lacks a Quorum.
No action was taken at the council meet
ing last night. There was not a quorum
answered to roll call, so the body ad-
journed to meet Monday evening. At that
time the committee on viaducts streets
and alleys will be ready to report on one
or two propositions. 1t is likely a provi-
sion will be considered for the construc-
tion OF the approach 10 the viaduct on west
. over the Burlington tracks. II is also
surmised that there will be report en-
bodying plans in connection with the VIA
duct at u street over the Union Pacific
and Rock Island tracks
