I From Tuesdav Daily Mayor George Lushinsky appeared ( at the city hall last evening attired ui a suane cnapeau uun iu juu; . and his honor started a search to dis- cover the owner of the headpiece. It rooms that at the last meeting of the council, the mayor was one of the last to leave the temple of justice, f.ndirg iie strange hat left in place cl the uftial headgear of the mayor. Necessity forced wearing it home and as yet the hat is unclaimed, as all of the councilmen and other officials h;d- their own hats and denied all knowledge of the mayor's, so Mayor Lushinsky is still guardian of the strange hat. While on the subject of hats, Coun cilman W. C. Tippens had his favorite pearl grey badly crushed during the session of the great common council. He had carefully placed the hat on a hook back of the door of the coun cil chamber and someone had pressed the door back until the hat was re duced to a mangled mass of felt.
