But he little thought that the wedding march from “Lohengrin” was also on the pro- gram. However, when Yaps Southampton he met a pretty Eng- lish lass and his heart started to beat faster than the throb of a ma-- chine gun. With Yankee speed he arrived in HIS ENGLISH BRIDE. proposed to her and she promised to be hig bride. It required only a short time for arrangements for the wed- ding and the knot was tled. Yaps Is connected with the head- quarters company of the 102d regi- ment and has sent a photograph of ]l)ls bride and himself to friends here. He also wrote: ‘Please tell my mother that I am married and will send her a plcture, too.” Concern- ing his wife he wrote: “I met her at Southampton and 1 hope you will like her.” POTATOES AGAIN BEFORE GOUNCIL Will Be Given Chance to Lower, Price Wednesday Evening Mayor Quigley will call a special meeting of the commoan council for next Wednesday at which time the question of the price of municipal potatoes will be brought before that body and the members will be given an opportunity to order a reduction in the price. At the session last Wed- nesday it was apparent that there were some wha favored reducing the price and at a special meeting of the farm committee held late yestevday to consider this matter it was decided that if the council wishes to have the price lowered it may so direct. Until it does the committee feels that it should stick by its original figures, fixed after due consideration. Tt is the desire of the farm committee ta have any further responsibility in re- gards to price or supply or potatoes rest with the council, the committes | feeling that it is a creature of the| council and as such is bound to do its bidding. At the farm committee meeting vesterday afternoon Thomas H. Kehoe expressed a firm avowal to stand by | his guns and hot change the price of | potatoes from $1.90 and $1.95 unless ordered to do so by the council.| Frederick Parson expressed the samc sentiment. Both of these men ex-| pressed the opinion that while pota- toes may be more plentiful in the market at present, as the winter pro- | gresses the supply will diminish ana| then it will be that the people will! profit by the municipal supply on | hand. It is because of this belief | that the committee members did not feel that they should bear the re- sponsibility in the events af a sale of the potatoes at a lower cost and then a famine or excessive prices later. In remarking upon the situation, Mr. Kehoe said: ‘‘By selling the po- tatoes for $1.90 and $1.95 per bushel we can come very near returning the $16,000, but if we lower the price there will be a considerable of a defict. Then certain members of the council, who seem to want this enterprise to be a failure, will criticise because we are unable to return the amount or at least all but a little o; it. If the council wants us to sell potatoes at a price lower than that for which we are selling them at pres- ent, very well, but the council as a whole should take the responsibility, not us.” Following further comment upon the price W. E. Rossberg introduced a motion recommending to the council that the price of potatoes he fixed at $1.65 per bushel at the storehouss and $1.75 delivered. Judge Gaffney remarked that a time lynit should ‘be set for these prices and also that a limit be placed on the amount to be sold at such prices. Mr. Kehoe ex- pressed disapproval of the motion and opposed recommending anything to the council. Tt was his opinion that by recommending such action the committee would become responsibile for results and the members would then be apen to criticism. “T do not want them ta say ‘Shake not thy gory locks at me'”, he said, turning from potatoes to a quotation €rom Macbeth, “But Banquo was dead when Mac- beth said that. We are not dead ones and therc has been no murder committed”, retarted Judge Gaffney. “No, but there will be—we will bhe murdering the city treasury, and we may be ‘dead ones’ before we are through”, said Mr. Kehoe. When it was apparent that Judge Gaffney had not further remarks to make and Mr. Kehoe had ceased his poetic outburst, Acting Chairman F. H. Alford put the following Tesolu- tion, drafted by Judge Gaffney and appraved by the committee: “Resolved: That to compl.
