the idea of showing war with all its
horrors, to show the world what is do
ing In Europe any of the scenes taken,
especially the bombardment of unforti

at this time it brings home to the Am- j

At a special meeting in Hie cit> I util
last night, the city council decided to
purchase the lot formerly occupied by the
Elite bath house for the purpose of
erecting a municipal pumping station.
The decision was not reached until alter
a lot of the usual pointless rag chewing.
Immediately upon the matter being open
ed two factions appeared. Councilman
McAllister was the evident leader of the
purchase bunch while Councilman
Thompson led the opposition. The dis
cussion ranged far and wide and up and
down and for a time It looked as if the
whole crowd were going to talk them
selves to a standstill. Matters were linal
ly brought to a head by McAllister, Who ,
offered a motion that the city pur- |
chase the lot for the sum of one thou
Hand dollars, $Uof) to be pmd down,
an equal Nimi to follow next October and
final payment i»l to be made July
i. mv.
llv stipulation, Interest was not to be
paid on the deferred payments. The
council then took up the matter of ways
and means tor securing the pumping
plant which is to adorn the lot. it noth
ing goes wrung and a committee consist
ing ot burgh. Polecl and Hose was ap
pointed to devise So rile method ot raising
money
If.- council then adjourned subject to
call of the mayor
What is said lu be a perfectly good
$100 bill, but which lacks the signature
of tin issuing hank was taken in at the
nurd of Trade shortly after the arrival
• i tne Senator yesterday morning and
occasioned the report that bogus money
**as ui circulation, and caused those who
are fortunate enough to possess surplus
stores of currency to make a hurried ex
amination of the hills in their pos
session. The excitement was fur
ther intensified by the knowl
edge that unsigned bills of ten dol
lar denomination have been discovered
earner in the season. The bill received
• * tiie Hoard of Trade was tendered by
an arrival on the Senator, one W. S.
Haley who is a trapper from the Yukon
section, hut who asserts that he does
not know that lie cashed the bill. He
says he sold a quantity of furs to the
N c\ company at Circle before coming
down the river for one thousand dollars
and was given hills of one hundred doi- (
lar denomination in payment and he may
huY* tendered the bill in question It is
said that no suspicion attaches to Mr.
Haley, as he, if lie did pass tin* lull is
evidently an innocent party. The bill
would probably bo accepted by nearly
any one outside of a mink as there is
nothing wrong with it except the ab
sence of signature
It is suggested that the bill, which is
on the National hank of Pittsburg, was
stolen wnile in transit from the treasury
or else was inadvertently issued by the
hank without being signed. The matter
has been taken up by the federal au
thorities and an investigation will he
made.
