II Charles H. Sergel, city treasurer,

do you do" then insult or Sullivan
can answer:
Much obliged, Mr.. Sergel, ever so
much obliged. That was the best lit
tie lift anybody has given us in the
city hall for quite while"
insult is the head money man and
Sullivan the head politics man Of the

City Treasurer Sergel yesterday took
action mhich snags for long time
council committee action to take
away $4,000, 900 from the gas trust
which the gas trust has sneaked out
of the pockets of gas consumers of
Chicago through Overcharges for gas.
Sergel's action is straight smash
at the biggest prediction, anti-cOr-
poration policy of Mayor Thompson
and of the special committee on gas
appointed by the mayor to go after
the $40, 900, 900 fund Of overcharges
now tied up in the courts.
SergeI announced. yesterday he
will pay no money on city warrants
against council special appropria-
tions. Never before has any city
treasurer of Chicago got cold feet all
of a sudden and called out:
ooh, fellow citizens, 1 am afraid l
am breaking the law. At least, fell
low citizens, l must find out first what
the law is before l put out money. on
special appropriations. am an hon
est man and there is no politics in
this. l wish, Oh, fellow citizens, to
obey the law"
Sergel has been sitting in the city
treasurer's chair four months. Not,
however, till after Mayor Thompson's
special committee on gas appointed a
lawyer and appropriated $4,000 to
fight the gas company did Sergel all
of a sudden say the law is holy and

MEETS WIFE THOUGHT
DEAD AFTER 16 YEARS.
Andrew Ritter Was Putting
Flowers on Her Grave
In a Cemetery.

New York, July 9.-While Mrs.
Louisa Singer. of East EiRhty-fifth
street. was placing flowers on the
grave of q friend In the Lutheran Gem
etery. Brooklyn, she saw a man near
her also placing flowers on a grave.
To her great amusement she recog-
nized him as Andrew G, Ritter. who
had married her sister in 1895. and
who she thought was dead.
Mrs. Singer. without speaking to
Ritter. who had not recognized her,
followed him to 439 Central Avenue,
Brooklyn. Then she told her sister.
who had had not seen Ritter since
1899. The sister promptly got q war
rant for the arrest of the long-van-
ished husband. Ritter. who had mar
ried second stime. confronted his
former wife in the domestic relation
court, and received the shock Of his
life, as he thought his first wife had
died years ago.
Never has Magistrate Cornell wit
messed a more dramatic scene than
the one that was enacted in his court
when Mrs. Ritter No. 1, sccompani-
ed by her two grown daughters, who
had never seen their father
since babyhood. gazed into the face
of the man she married in 1895.
There we're explanations all around.
Ritter seemed unable to realize that
his first wife actually stood before
him. He had not seen or heard from
her since they separated in 1899. In
1905 he married Miss Elizabeth
Shields. and they have lived very
happily together since that time and
have two daughters.
Mrs. Ritter No. 2 was just as sur
prised as her husband to learn that
he had living wife. but she is per-
fectly loyal to her husband. and says
that she will never give him up.
| Ritter was introduced by wife No.
to his two grown daughters. They
are Mrs. Elizabeth O'Keefe. nineteen
years old. Of 1922 Avenue A. and
Mrs. Anna Holoubek. eighteen years
old. of 408 East Seventy-first street.
They declared this was the first time
they ever remembered to have met
their father.
Magistrate Cornell questioned al
the parties closely and was convinc.
ed that Ritter was sincere in believ-
ing his first wife to be dead before
marrying second time. There had
been some talk of prosecuting Ritter
on a bigamy charge. but Assistant
Corporation Counsel Carr said that
as sixteen years had elapsed since
Ritter last saw his wife. and as he
had heard nothing from her in all
that time, he was justified in assum-
ing that she was dead.
After bordering over the queer
tangle for a while Magistrate Cor
nell finally ordered Ritter to pay the
sum Of 81 a week to wife No. for
period of one year.

ance of Officer Williams. who has also
been vigilant in this matter.
We congratulate Mr.. Harvey and
trust he will continue his good work
The Office Of Pound Keeper is NOT a
salaried position, and We feel that
after Mr. Harvey has made a clean
up OF our district regarding the roam
in the financial end of his position
that he will not be able TO afford 70
give it the attention that he is Civ
ing il in the beginning.
We understand that the Pound
Keeper is paid a certain percentage,
or a certain amount for each animal
empOunded. Just as soon as our
citizens who continually violate the
law in allowing their animals to roam
al large find that there is a Pound
Keeper in Algiers who will do his
duty. they will obey the law and our
Pound Keeper will have nothing TO
do.
We believe that this position should
be placed on the salaried list and that
il would have the sanction of every
householder in Algiers.

The tacky party on Tuesday last was
quite a success.
Tho some who did not participate
don't know just why, l guess;
But Sophie and Charlie Chaplain, the
Essanay stars, were there
And Buster and Mary Jane with q
cute little Teddy Bear,
A little later came Aunt Marian with
her little dusky twins,
And dear Mrs. Dutch Cleanser who
makes the dirt take wings.
A baby or two were found in the
crowd, and a milk maid very shy,
Which made a certain country boy
feel blue as he kept very nigh.
Then a damsel gay with golden hair
wore jewels very rare,
And a gown of most becoming green,
since she was very fair.
Some Irish girls were there and
few schoolgirls as well,
And lots of others, too, but 1 haven't
room to write.
Is time is short and wit is slack and
space is rather tight.
