Councilman Hack | ett's hired girl had left suddenly and he had to stay at home: Councilman Stauffer was tired and Councilman McDermott didn't know there was to be meeting, so only the mayor and MT. Cisney were on hand at the ap- pointed time. The telephone was worked and Messrs McDermott and Stauffer were persuaded to hurry to the city hall.
