tBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, June 27.-Probably
for the first time in the signature of
an international treaty, short hand
characters will appear when the seals
are attached to the treaty of Paris,
which will mark the official termina-
ton Of the world war next Saturday.
President Wilson will confirm his sig
nature by an impress upon wax of his
own name written in short hand upon
a seal ring which he always wears.
The President when a student in col
lege acquired short hand as an aid in
taking notes of the lectures of the
faculty and years ago had engraved
up a stone setting OF his ring the
words Woodrow Wilson," as they
would appear in shorthand, and it is
the seal he will use upon the peace
treaties-for he must sign and seal
no less than a score of treaties with
the nations that participated in the
war.
There is Presidential seal, but
this is used at the White house solely
for stamping envelops and letter
heads It is almost a reproduction in
diminished size of the great seal of
the United States, save that the stars

eagle instead of in circle and that
it bears the legend President of the
United States of America" on the en-
circling belt
U. S. Seal on Ratification.
The great seal of the United States
will appear twice in connection with
the treaty or treaties, but this will
only be in the final stages of its con-
summation; first upon the article sig
nifying the ratification of the treaty
| and second upon the proclamation
which the President will issue In
forming the world of the completing
of the convention. But authorities on
treaty making agree that the seals
| to be attached upon the frst sigma
ture of the treaty must be those OF
/ the individual signers. This is a sur
vival of the medieval customs of at
taching the sign of the arms" of the
signatory, generally some belteo
knight or noble of high degree.

state have had their private seals

Members Of the Wayne county coun-
ell voted unanimously in favor of the
additional appropriation of $4,000 for
the completion Of the Main street
bridge, when the ordinance covering

before the council for first reading
Friday morning.
This appropriation, together with
several others, will come up for sec

for the completion Of the bridge will
be raised by the issuing Of 110 bonds
of $500 each, bearing four per cent

ney for Isaac Smith, to reappropriate
the $56,000 left from the old contract

not hold good since the cancelling OF
