"$3 SCRIME CLUB"
Young Men Form Novel Organization
 With Iron-Bound Rules.

About a dozen members of the Tabs have banded together and formed what is to be known as the ''Three- Dollar Scrime Club.' As the name will suggest, the purpose of the club is to save money, even though mserly means must be adopted, each mem Der being required to hold down his weekly spending account to $3. One of the more strict rules of the club is that no one is to make any appointments to take young women to theaters or entertainments of any sort. Officers have been elected to go over the expense accounts filed by each of the members at the close of the week.

SOCKS FOR SALE
Two Pair Remain to Be Sold at Mayors Office-Win End City's Dealings With Quartermasters Store

Of the large supply of government articles for retail sale which were re- ceived at the office of Mayor Quigley, and which have been on exhibition in his office for several months, but two pair of woolen socks remain unsold. When the socks are disposed of the city dealing with the quartermasters store in New York will be at. close. At recent meeting of the common council, that body voted to discharge the government articles committee with thanks and leave the sale of samples in the hands of the mayors stenographer.

NO SMALLPOX HERE.

Upon investigation, it has been found that the suspected smallpox case reported Saturday is nothing more than an unusual case of .chicken-pox. Officials of the health board say there is nothing to cause alarm in the report, as the state off, cial was called in to make a diagnosis merely because the case had symp- toms of more serious ailment. The patient is improving.
