Report Of Court Business.

Those who believed the municipal
court would be an expensive luxury
rather than self sustaining must dis
abuse themselves of the idea. The
court gained sound footing almost
from the beginning, was able to pay
its own way after a few weeks, and
during the month Of June, after being
in operation less than six months,
was able to show receipts in excess
of 1900.
The monthly report Of the clerk, R.
b. Grimes, shows the court to be not
only self-sustaining, but is paying.
The use Of the municipal court will
grow and it is reasonable to expect
that its income will increase with
time rather than show decrease.
Monthly Receipts $1,240.18.
During the past month the total
receipts of the court were $1,24O1S.
After payment Of bailiffs fees and
issuance of warrants covering ex-
pense's, the clerk turned over to the
city clerk the sum of $S71.54. The re-
ceiptss of the office. as shown by the
clerks report, follow:

Mary has one fault-she is very forget

and fetch the big stepladder down from

Mary, who had been disturbed at her

and ran up the three flights of stairs
to fetch down the heavy ladder. In
about five minutes she returned to the

And now said Mr.. Brown, put it

Mary did as she was told, and when
she was at the top Mr.. Brown quietly
observed:

That did it.
