Flaral Vfw.
Mayor Macrae was In enrnaat when at
the meeting of the city council Monday
night he gave warning that ther must b
a retrenchment In the-different city de
partments and that th running expenses
of-the municipal government would have to
bo cut down nil along the line. When h
gave the not of warning Mayor Maera
realised that If the present policy was pur
sued tho appropriations for the mainte
nance of the several departments would b
exhausted Ions before the end of the fis
cal year, which closes March 10, 1806.
In several of the funds th Expenditures
have been far In excess of the proportion
for the first four months of the year. City
Auditor Smith has not made oul his report
for July, au the bills for that month were
only allowed last Monday evening. His
report, however, for the three months end
ing July 1, which follows, shows that In
several of the funds the appropriations have
been proportionately overdrawn In thut
time:

The net debt balance of the city on July

different funds were as follows:

Of course, the expenditures for July have
greatly decreased these balances, this bo
ing particularly true of the;brldge and
road fund.. Tho streets and alleys fund
has also been materially reduced during
July owing to the expenditures on the Pet
tibone ditch drainage system. Out of the
appropriation of $5,000 for the equipment
and maintenance of thenew engine house
In the south part of the city will have to
be paid the cost of the combination chem
ical engine and hoss wagon, 'the 1,000 feet
of hose, the furniture of the house, team
for the wagon and the salaries of the
throe men who will be placed there.
While it 1 admitted that the expendi
tures :pf -some of th departments have
been 'unusually hcavy durlng the first four,
months of the fiscal year,. It Is contended
that they have been warranted and will
not be 'necessaVy again this year. . With
strict" economy from this on, it Is asserted
that the- city's- running expenses can .be
maintained within the appropriations.
Th city council will be cnlled upon this
month 'to' fix the tax levy for next year,
as It has td be certified up to the county
board of supervisors' at the letter's meet
ing In September.
Walt for Gollmar'a.
Circuses ars commonly regarded a bot
bede for profanity and lewdness, but . this
much muBt be suld for Gollmar Bros.' show,
that everything connected with It was
free from all such objectionable features
and nothing to shock the modesty or af
front the most fastidious could be men
tioned from tlie driving pf the first tent
pin-until the lust act of th performance
ended. It was a clean show, . free, from
all vulgarity, fakirs, shell games or other
forms of gambling. Th. parade created a
vary favorable Imprenslon and had much
to do. with drawing a large attendance.
Th menagerie contained many valuable
specimens of animals from the Jungle and
Lveldt Th hippopotamus created much
wonderment, as it Is the only one exhibited
In Canada for many years, and was per
haps the only living specimen ever seen
by nearly every visitor to the show. It Is
only S years olda sturdy babe for all that
The performances were strictly high class,
clean and commendable. Both afternoon
und evening performances were well pat
rohlxed. It Is safe to say that Gollmar
Bros, have done much to demonstrate how
a circus may bo clean. Instructive And en
tertaining. Suffice It to say they carry
away the good will of the people of Car
man. The Carman Leader, Manitoba.

Kot All for Poor Farm. , ,
Despite previous assertions of th Board
of County Supervisors that ,all ' county
charges would be setit to the poor farm
when ready for occupancy this rule Is not
being followed. At yesterday's session of
the board out ' eighteen applicants for
aid outsldo the poor farm no less than
twelve were ordered allowed such asslst
anca and will not be required to go to th
poor farm. The amounts allowed these ap
plicants monthly rangod from $4 to $10. the
latter being the sum allowed Mr. and Mrs.
Peter Pechtele, pioneer residents of this
city. . .
Supervisors Brandes and BulUs were ap
pointed as a special commute to tnk
personal charge pf all matters connected
with the poor farm and It Is believed that
under their supervision conditions at the
Institution will be materially Improved.
What action the committee will take rela
tlva to Superintendent Knox's threatened
resignation unless Miss O'Nell, the matron,
Is removed, will depend on- Its Investiga
tion. The commutes, however,' Is hopeful
that matters will be smoothed over aud
that there will be no further friction.
