TuM6LED OVERHEARD WITH
THE DOUGH-.

Twenty-Five thousand dollars OF the
city's money and one valued employe
came near being lost In the cold
waters OF Lake ST. Clair Tuesday aft
ernoon.
John Anglin is the employe and the
money--real. big, natural thousand
dollar bills-was tucked away in n
wallet In his inside coatpocket. An
glin has been deputed 10 go up to the
Flats To make a tender OF the money
to j. F. Weber in payment for the site
OF the proposed contagious disease
hospital
Weber was to sell the city 10 acres
for $4,000, but, when it came to
measuring the land, IL was found to
more money and the city refused, in.
sisting that he abide by the original
price.
Secretary John McKinlay OF the
health board and John Turnbull, real
estate man, guarded Anglin from
pirates when he went up on the after
noon boat Then the three took a
launch from the Star island house to
Weber's cottage.
AS they reached it and Anglin start
ed TO get out. the waves OF another
boat rocked the launch. He went down
on the deck and grappled valiaatly
with one leg and arm off the boat.
The other two could not see so much
good money-not to mention the good
mango into the drink and they each
grabbed q limb.
Weber would not take the money.
IT'S more money than was ever
seen at the Flats before In one mans
hands, but | want more for my piece
OF dirt" he said as Anglin artfully
waved the sheaf of yellow, robust
"one-thou" bills in the air
So the trio voyaged home, sitting
close together on deck and the big
wad was put safely away In the treas
urers vault.

The Democrats Toasted beneath the
very roof that sheltered the sage Of
Monticello and then they went out
under the acacias and lindens where
Jefferson loved to stroll In the days

famed the sacred soil with robust
