Upon his return Qied In Des Moines, sad rites over iristian his wite became il and He performed the last her remains and then started for the west, intending to leave again for Afr He had heard of the Christian home, and decided to stop over a train and make the acquaintance of the management. He rang the door bell, and it chanced to be answered by Miss Lawrence, whom he had neither seen nor heard from since thelr sepa- ration years before. Mrs. Lemen, wife of the manager, heard a cry from the vicinity of the front door, and running in to see what was the matter was considerably shocked to find that Miss Law- rence had fainted away, and, what was still worse, had fainted directly into the arms of a tall, good looking, clerical gentleman. When Miss Lawrence revived the story came out, how she had remained true to her first love through thick and thin, and her first love had done the same, in spite of other entangling alliances. Although the first wife had passed away only a few days before, it took very little time to dectde that ther wedding was eminently in order The requisite time now having elapsed, Mr. and Mrs. Lemen have 1 fnvitations to the home friends to attend the marriage this afternoon. whole Grand Pinza, Lake Mannwa.

Before the vote was taken Howell led some thers in eriticising the mayor for attemp! ng every year to displace a man who he leclared was in favor “‘with all other mem- bers of the board, every employe in the li- brary, and every patron of the library.” TO INVESTIGATE OLSEN. Much time was consumed discussing and disposing of the followii.g resolution sub mitted by Howell Whereas, Section 110 of the charter makes the duty of the comotroller to carefully mine each month the accounts, state- its and vouchers of the tré and to make from time to t to the city council conc counts and statements as sary and proper, and Whereas, The council oceasions instructed the port to the council, as required by the ter, the condition’ of the treasurer's and Wheres tions, the motion to refer Mun good rec always acted for and he con: provision that BY SAUNDERS, of that committ was s Reed cchel was alone in vot a I rning such lay seem neces- on two different comptroller to re- char- office In compliance with said resolu comptroller reported everythin in the treasurer's office to be in a satis- factory condition, and Whereas, Gross irregularities have heen discovered’ in the tre office and a system has been allowe grow up which permitted employes of the city, as well as ntractors and others, to bOrrow ‘money om the city treasurer contrary to law, that of AWhereas, Tt is reported the amount found to have been advanced to employes of the city 1, the largest ymounts_appear to have been given to em- ployes of the comptroller's office, thus indi cating that the comptroller was either negligent and derelict in his duties or was a party to the transaction; Whereas, Section af th vides that the mavor shall with the clerk of the dist proper charges and specifications any councilman or other officer guilty of malfeasance or misfeasance or incompe- terey or neglect of duty; therefore be it Resolved, That his honor the mavor be requested to investigate the said irregulari- ties above referred to and to take such action as said investigation may justify Howell said that he submitted the resolu- tion as a fried of the comptroller. It would be wrong to interpret the preamble as i plying that the comptroller had been guilty of malfeasance in office, but criticism of Mr. Olsen in connection with reports on the city treasurer's office had been fo strong that he believed it was due to the comp- troller as much as to the public that an investigation be had, TOLD IT WAS BUNCOMBE. Saunders called the resolution a plece of political buncombe and by no means in- troduced in good faith. He said it naturally followed in line with the long-winded resolu tions which the member Lad been springing at_every fon for @ long time and for politfeal effect. He insisted that before put- ting before the body a document so full of insinuations it was Howgll's duty to person ally inquire into the affairs in the comp troller'’s office as every city officlal and citizen had a right to do. Jacobsen said the resolution alled for and anpounced ly opposed to it Howell replied that the facts spoke for him was on his initiative that the comptroller | first asked to check up the in treasurer’s office, and, the report made | not satisfactory. Being requested to make a more thoroygh examination th comptroller had said that the treasurer was unwilling that he have access to th box, and events had shown that th shortage there, ‘Criticism had been ed on the comptroiler that his bad state of affairs was not reported by him, and it was only proper that a thorough examination of the conduct of the comptroiler's office should be made.
