COUNCIL in ROW
WITH MAYOR
Lively Session Over Saloon and

Milling vacancies. Il made two APP
pointments the other evening and
you turned them down." said the
mayor. Councilman Ransimer start
ed to rise and reply and the mayor
said: Mind your own business, and
do not try to attend to mine" But
the Councilman was persistent, and
the mayor fairly shouted at him,
you are out of order" Some one
made a motion to adjourn, and
whether a vote was ever taken upon
it or not no councilman could proba-
bly, say, but an adjournment was tax
en-, and as the meeting broke up,
Councilman Ransimer and the mayor
were facing each other, and the
councilman was saying, You rule me
out of order, but / am going to tell
you what think of you.,' and the
mayor was telling him tO"mind your
own business"
The Row Continues.
The council was adjourned, but the
row was not, and instead of abating,
it waxed warmer and hotter. The
contending councilmen freely be
slowed upon each other uncompli-
mentary remarks and the mayor
and Councilman Ransimer again
mixed. Councilman Ransimer want
ed to explain the mayors ineonsist-
emit manner of making nominations
how they would come from the
council on one occasion and from the
mayor on the next, and the mayor
again said, mind your own bus
mess and not attend to mine"
You turned down two of my men
that / appointed the other night.
Councilman Ransimer acknowledge
ed that he had and added" one of
the men appointed was Sullivan and
we do not want Sullivan. Sullivan
does not want you either" said the
mayor. Il do not care whether he
does or not, replied Ransimer, but
he cannot get me of this council.
You run this council two years ago
Mr. Mayor, but you cannot run 1t
now" And back came the mayors
favorite retort, Tend to your own
business. The two men were close
together, and the mayor was shaking
his fist in the face of the councilman
who resented it, and said: Il am not
afraid of you, Mr.. Mayor" And then
they filed out through the door, the
whole body mumbling and grumbling
to itself, and when they reached the
head of the stairs the controversy
between the mayor and councilmen
was again renewed for a moment,
and was continued as they passed
down the stairs. The street was
reached, and the mayor hurriedly
wended his way homeward, and the
of the council gathered in
groups talking over the situation.

SIR THOMAS Dimes
AMERICAN ATHLETES

LONDON, July 29.-The American atf-
letes who almost licked the platter
clean in the Olympic games agreed yes
terday that there was one jolly good fell
low in England. and that he was Sir
aboard the Irish baronets yacht Erin.
The Americans arrived at Southampton
at noon. and were Immediately taken
aboard the Erin. Sir Thomas presided at
the luncheon that followed shortly after.
He toasted the prowess of the Yankee
athletes and derided the Britishers' charge
that they were not game losers as well
as magnanimous victors. After a cruise
around the Isle of Wight Sir Thomas
brought his yacht load of guests back to
Southampton and entertained them at
dinner at the Southwestern Hotel. where
there were more speechmaking and felici-
tations. A special train took the athletes
back to London at midnight.
Il am delighted to get the opportunity
to show the American lads little hos
pitality" Sir Thomas said. However
much did. 1 could not begin to make an
adequate return for all the magnificent
hospitality shown to me upon the occa.
sions of my various visits to the United
States.
Il do not want this superb collection OF
athletes, representative, as they are, OF
the young manhood of all America, to
leave England feeling there were not some
friends over here who thoroughly appre-
ciated their coming over and giving us
such a fine exhibition of skill and pluck
as they did in the Olympic stadium.
II have reason to know the hospitality
of the American people, and want these
young men to feel that such a thing as
hospitality is. after all. not unknown over
here"
