 Night Lieutenant for Force
MARTIN PAGAN GETS PLACE
Case Against Policeman Joe Cunning ham Is Enthusiastically Re port of the Department Shows
 Excellent Work.

The office of night lieutenant, or really second lieutenant, was created in the po- lice department at the meeting of the com mission last night, and Martin Eagan was elected to the place.
 His duties will be to assist Captain John- son and Lieutenant Hagood in seeing that the beats are properly patrolled. He will go on duty at 2 o'clock at night and work until o'clock in the morning. By doing this he will keep in close touch with both shifts of the department.
 The matter was brought up by Chairman Parker, and met with opposition from Commissioner Rudulph. who stated that he did not wish to hasten 1t through and hold the election at once. Commissioner Rudulph made a motion that the elec- ton of the night lieutenant be postponed until the next meeting, and his motion was seconded by Commissioner Johnston, but was lost The original motion creat- ing the office and electing Martin Eagan was then passed Commissioner Rudulph being the only commissioner to vote against it.

Patton to settle some of his debts. He reported that tine policeman had taken advantage of the bankrupt law. After a discussion, in which Policeman Patton explained that he was making an effort to pay his debts, Chairman Parker asked for further time. which was granted The reports of Chief Wier and the de- tective department for the month were then read, received and approved

LOCAL EVENTS.

The song recital, given at the
F|raternal Hall, Saturday even
ing, by Mrs. HenriettejB. Hollis,
the renowned soprano singer,
and Miss Cena Firebaugh, the
pianist, was all that it was re-
presented to be. Those who have
a sufficient knowledge to appre-
eli ate high class music OF this
kind, can testify to it's excellence.
1t was a musical tread which one
is not often permitted to hear,
al id never regrets having attend
ed.
The past week has been unpre-
po e s ing, atmospherically
speaking. Numerous h e " y
sh overs, have kept the roads
from growing dusty and the
grass from becoming sere. Some
idea of the springlike weather
can be gathered from the fact
that a fruit tree in B. f. Bourn's
yard opened a few blossoms this
week.

Trade at Home.

The following from the Cheney
Free Press is patriotic sentiment
and true, "a remark heard fire.
quenty nowadays is that there is a
growing tendency for residents of
this locality to spend more of their
money at home. This is a good
sign. The people are beginning to
find out that the home merchants
can do more for them in the long
run than the Spokane dealers.
Moreover there is a reciprocal ben
eft in giving the home merchant
all otyour trade. If his sales are
greater lie can make the margin of
profit closer. Local competition
will require him to make it close,
especially il sales are brisk and the
influx of trade greater. With bet
Ter support he can afford to keep a
better stock. The value of your
own real estate will be greatly en-
HANGED by building up home mer-
chants instead of paying towards
the high rents of those Of rival
city. Cooperation is the watch
word of the day in business.
Strengthen the town by giving
it's merchants all of your trade.
Let the professor and layman,
town, gown and ranchman assist
in this move to build up the city
and verify there will be a boom
such as this vicinity has never be-
fore experienced"

and later demanded his release, Manager
Kelly said:
ION several occasions this season 'Cy'
Seymour has asked for his release from
the Cincinnati Club. but In each instance
he has been refused for the reason that
the local club wants Seymour.
Both President Hermann and 1 think
that there are few more valuable men In
the business than Seymour. and to re-
lease him just because his imagination is
working a bit would be the height of
folly.
There never has been a word said
that could lead to the suspicion that we
wanted to get rid of Seymour. He is too
valuable a man to be disposed of Off
hand. and the fact that ne slipped up on
one occasion Is no reason why strong
rope and a tin can should be gotten
ready for him"
