REPORT OF THE PARK BOARD

Secretary Phillips Has His Mat.
ter All Ready for submission.
Secretary N. G. Phillips has completed the
annual report of the Board Of Park Commits
sioners and will present 1t to the city coun-
Gil at the regular meeting Monday night.
The report simply shows the expenditures
during the last year for the different city
parks The total expenditures amounted to
s4976.94. made up as follows: Paramount
park, $3,14536 Bayliss park, $501.43; Coch-
ran park, s25S. 80; Lakeview park, $146.94;
miscellaneous, 1924. The expenditures In
the miscellaneous account include the sal
aries of the three park commissioners,
which under the new code were fixed at
500 year each, the salary OF the secre-
tary fxed by the board at $50 per annum
and the salary Of Superintendent OF Parks
A. NJ Lund at $50 per month. The last year
was the first that the park commissioners
received any remuneration for their serv-
ices, the position prior to the new CODE
going into effect being an honorary one.
The Office Of park superintendent was Gre
ated by the present board and the super
vision exercised by Mr.. Lund is believed by
the board to have resulted in reduced ex-
penditure for labor, with more profitable re-
suits. In the miscellaneous account Is in
cluded the cost of planting the flower bed
in the little park between the city hall ana
police headquarters, which amounted to
$780,
The largest single item Of expense in
CURED by the board during the last year was
that Of the new band stand at Fairmount
park. which cost $1,4O0. The board hopes to
arrange with the motor company for q
series of Sunday afternoon concerts at this
park next summer. The report shows that
on November the park fund had bal
ance in the city treasury OF $1,35s.4o. left
over from the mill tax which is annually
laviad for the marks. ..

interest in Quick Mail Service.

CRESToN. Ia, Dec. 2.--(Special.) I'm
terest In the proposed new mail service on
the Burlington is strong here, especially
among the railroad men, who are discussing
the various phases that will enter into the
new service, especially as to the speed
schedule. That the west Iowa division Will
be able to make the required speed OF
little better than fifty miles an hour Is not
improbable. 1t was fully demonstrated, IN
fact, last week when Engineer VIII keiiey
hauled the present mail train, No. Z, which
is a fve-car train, from Creston to PACING
Junction in eighty-six minutes, a distance
Of eiehty-six miles. The matter does not
seem to be a question Of speed with the
west division engineers. but a problem as
to whether the equipment will hold the
rails. A mile minute clip can be made
quite regularly with three cars. which is
the reported size Of the new trains.

How much property man will leave
when he dies depends largely upon his
health. The man who suffers from i'll
health stands little show of being sue
cessfil business man. The man who comes
70 his desk in the morning with head
ache, who suffers all day from dullness and
drowsiness who goes to his meals without
IN appetite and tosses restlessly through
the night without sleep, is not likely to
leave a competence for his widow and or
phans Success is even more dependent
upon health than upon ability.
Few men realize these truths. They
think that everything can be accomplished
by work, and that health is secondary
consideration. Work is useless unless 1t Is
good work, and good work is never done
save by a thoroughly healthy man. DR..

In police court this morning. So far the
Iolice have been unable to locate his sup
posed partner in the deal. Haley told Chief
Rixby yesterday that his home was In San

said he had a wealthy uncle with the same
name as his own living in Laramie, Wyo..
and asked the chief to telegraph to him, say
ing that he (Haley) was under arrest for
forgery, but was innocent, and for the uncle
to send 500 to pay for the srevices Of an
attorney. Chief Bixby sent the telegram.
but the uncle simply wired back: III not
guilty no need for an attorney" Since

tempted to pass a draft upon pawnbroker
for $50 In payment for a revolver and an
overcoat. Although charged with passing =
