Rigdon interrupted.
"The officer has never been dis
charged, yet the chairman Of the po-
lice committee now asks that he be al
lowed to keep him another month
Gentlemen Of this council, If the may
or swore in this officer the oath ought
to be on file with the city recorder
But this city has no use for secret
service. A committee has no authori-
ty to employ secret officers, anyway.
A committee is simply a convenience
for parliamentary work, and has no
authority otherwise. This council is
to arrive at conclusions, and these
conclusions are to be given the city
officers to carry out.
1--WE are arrogating too much au-
thority to ourselves The intention Of
this resolution is to put stop to vot-
ing money without authority Of law.
This is the first instance I have
known OF money being paid out of the
treasury without being audited by the
committee on accounts and current
expenses. Any policeman to draw
money from the city must be under the
city marshal, and the city marshal
must know who he is"
Without further debate the resolu-
tlor was adopted. The full text Of tie
measure follows:
'Tnasmuch as it is the duty of the
city council in all its deliberations TO

only with a short riding whip, the

slowly back from its position. At

THE END OF HER HONEYMOON. BY

Here is a capital tale Of mystery and
Of suggested crime, whose denouement
is so ingeniously found that the re-
viewer dare not hint at it lest he spoil
the readers interest. An English girl
marries a countryman Of hers, a paint
or resident in Paris. They spend their
HONEYMOON in Italy, and at it's end
reach the French capital, where they
are 10 make their home. As the mans
studio has not been put in order, they
spend the night at a quiet little hotel.
in separate rooms, for this is the year
OF the great exhibition. there are half
q million foreigners. in Paris. and they
are fortunate 10 find any shelter at all.
in the morning the bride looks in vain
for her husband; what is more, the
hotelkeeper, his capable wife, and
boots" deny that he had been with
her the evening before. To this story
they stick, and from it they cannot be
budged. A friendly United States Sen
ator, his daughter and son interest
themselves in the plight Of the young
wife; the British Embassy is called in,
the prefet de police does his utmost
but--no clew is found; John Dampier
has disappeared 1t is the attitude Of
the couple which keeps the hotel that
, is open to darkest suspicion, but when.
at last. the true inwardness Of the case
comes out by accident. the reader has
an explanation that is Enthusiastically
based on facts. Public interest some
times prescribes the sacrifice of the in
dividual A most convincing story Of
its kind. with a welcome touch Of
novelty in its ending.
