Addison Balm reported that the hay
at Lincoln park had been sold. Iss.

south of the city and that 1t was the
finest he had ever seen.
The meeting of the health board
was given over to the discussion OF
the street car barn proposition on
North State street. The residents
there say that the car barn employees
filled the tile with material and that
they should clean 1t out. Mr.. Blum
did not think that the people should
clean 1t out, and so the matter rests.
The members were unable to get any
light on the subject from City Solic-
itor Elmer Boyd and the matter may
have to be taken to- the state board OF
health. officer Roy Chapman said he
had $135 for quarantine purposes
which he had not used, but 1t was
questionable IL money could be taken
from this fund to clean out the tile.
The matter will be given more con.
sideration.

several baptisms in the fore part of
the service. Mr.. Flnnell spoke in part
as follows:
There is not one in ten thousand
persons who is willing TO say, II
never intend to be a Christian. ="
Thousands are lost every year. but
the cause is not skepticism. 1t is not
because they do not believe In God

SQUABBLE
OVER SHRUBBERY
Balm Defends Himself
Against Attack.
ISSLEIB Wins HIS POINT
Orders Park Superintendent
to Sit Down.
Supervisor Blum is Instructed TO Cut
Weeds From Shrubbery i'm One of
the ParIs-.- More Talk About
Opening "a Ditch.

A heavy growth of weeds in some
valuable shrubbery in Mckinley park
led to some unpleasantries at a regu-
lar meeting of the board of public
service Tuesday evening. George
Blum, head of the street repair de-
partment. was requested by President
i. A. 1ssleib. of the board, to take
his men and clean out the weeds.
This was taken as an insult to the
work done at the parks by Addison
Balm. superintendent of the park
lands, and he in turn recommended
that Blum take his men instead and
clean out the tile on North State
street where the surplus water of the
street car barn'is flooding the district
and proving injurious to the health
OF the community. Some heated
words were exchanged over the mat
ter by the park superintendent and
the street commissioner.
The trouble opened early in the
meeting when Issleib called the atten-
tion of the board to the fact that the
valuable shrubbery at Mckinley park
was being destroyed by the weeds He
asked Blum to see that the weeds
were removed. as the board could
not afford to have such valuable
shrubbery to go to waste because of
the lack of attention.
IL think you are mlsrepresenting
things a little here said Mr.. Balm,
superintendent of parks, who thought
this work was in his department" If
I remember right this board instruct
ed me to spend no money at all at
Mckinley park. I expended some
there previous to this order and the
board did not seem to think 1t justl-
fed In the rainy season the weeds
have grown very high and on this
kind of soil they grow unusually
high. AS no money was spent

rather think things are misrepre-
sented here"
"If you had done your duty" said
President Issleib. "these weeds would
not have been there"
"I have done my duty according
to the orders of the board" declared
Balm forcefully 'T have been in
structed to spend no money there"
"Yes, but you were not instructed
to allow shrubbery TO go to waste"
retorted Issleib.
However 1t is. 1t is quite mlsrepre.
sented here" said Balm.
IL am not misrepresenting here.
sir declared Issleib. you sit
down."
The lively little tilt continued until
after the meeting between the park
superintendent and the street COM
missioner and came to head when
Balm declared that Blum had enough
to do IL he would clean out the tile
at the street car barn and rid the
community of dread nuisance. The
discussion ended in the meeting of
the board of health at which time the
board struggled to know just what
to do in the street car barn trouble.
Blum was instructed to clean out
the shrubbery, a thing which hereto
fore has fallen in the department OF
the park superintendent.
The session of the public servers
last evening was quite brief and was
adjourned at $3.50 o'clock. 1t was
reported that the alley paving-be-

HAPPY EVENT IS ANNOUNCED
Young Couple Forced to
"Fess Up."
Tally Ways Rob the Bride of Her
Husband, Ride Him About the City
and Force Him TO Sing "That's
why 1 Am a Happy Married Man. -

That Harry s. Elliott, city auditor,
and Miss Dorothy Glympse, were
quietly married in Wheaton, Ills, on
July 6, became known last night when
a friend, in whom the happy pair had
oonfded, found the secret too good to
keep. There followed an announce
ment which was happy surprise to
the many Marion friends of the young
couple.
Getting straight "tip" that Mr..
and Mrs. Elliott were at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. A. W. Curtis, of Nc
Williams court, crowd of about
thirty Tally Wags. planned to make
the couple "fess up" and incidently
to have some fun with the BRIDE
groom. Securing a wagon with large
rocking chair in 1t, the Wags swooped
down on the Curtis home shortly
after ten o'clock last night They
gained an entrance and surprised the
bride and groom. Confronted with the
facts they laughingly acknowledged
the marriage, and received congratu-
lations.
In accordance with the old Wag
custom the groom was unceremon-
iously hauled away and sitting in the
chair in the wagon was given ride
through the down town district.
Stopping at the square where a big
crowd had congregated the groom was
compelled to sing his recent song-hit,
which brought down the house at the
recent Tally Wag ninstrels, That's
Why I'm Happy Married Man"
The brother Ways joined in on the
chorus and numerous were the en-
cores demanded by the interested
spectators.
When the groom had been suf-
fiently paraded the Wags returned
him to his bride at the Curtis home.
The crowd was invited in and partook
of a luncheon.
Mr.. Elliott then informed his
friends that he and Miss Glympse
were married by Rev Mr.. Reerboth
pastor of the Lutheran church al
Wheaton, His, on July 6. At that
time Miss Glympsc was employed in
Chicago. making her home with re-
latives there. Mr.. Elliott was spend
ing few days in Chicago, visiting
her. Not intending to go to house
keeping until winter they decided to
keep the marriage a secret until that
time. Ccnfiding in friend proved
their undoing.
The bride Is the charming daughter
OF the late Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Glympse. Her acquaintance with her
husband dates back to school at the
Marion high school. which both at
tended and from which both gradual
