an opportunity tomorrow TO vote fol
a Justice of the Supreme Court; a
Judge for this the 10th. Judicial Cir
emit, and Municipal Judge of Villas
County. Judge w. e. Silverthorn is
a candidate TO succeed himself and is

RECENT ENL ARCEMENT
OF THE POLICE FORCE

From 2s men to Il men Is the in
crease made In the police department
during the last few weeks.
"A request has been made by the
police department to the city council
for 10 more men. and the number of
applicants for the Jobs has been so
great that the city has run out of
application blanks and things in the
application line are destined to be at
standstill until more blanks are
printed. Within the past few days
more than 100 citizens of high and
low degree have applied for places in
the department.
The present heavy number on the
force is explained by Police Commits
sioner Root as being due to three
men called in for five days to do
duty while the wreck is on at Di-
vision street and by men who are
taking the places of regular men who
are OF on their summer vacation. The
commissioner insists that the regular
force is the same as heretofore.
One of the new specials, 1t was ex-
planned, is paid by the men who are
running the cribs in the alley. This
special is under the guidance Of the
regular department. wears the star
and uniform OF the regular force, and
his pay is left at the city hall cash
month by the men who run the cribs
Other specials have been given en-

ployment at the ball park. These spe-
cials have been serving on one as
signment from the city each day and
the baseball park management pays
them 81 per day additional.
None of these specials are doing
duty in the suburbs where so many
burglaries and petty crimes have been
occurring during the past week or
two. Neither are they devoting spe-
cial attention to the gang Of bicycle
thieves who have been making life
q burden for the owners of wheels
during the last few days. Members
, of the police department insist that
many of these wheels have been re-
turned to their owners and that the
owners, while jealous in reporting the
loss of the bicycles. have been most
careless in reporting the recovery of
their property.
The favorite trick of the wheel
thieves is to alter the property they
have stolen. J. F. Fosters wheel
was stolen from the hallway of the
Rookery building, but was found next
/ day back of the Comiaue theater. The
brake had been removed from the
bicycle and one of the regular wheels
had been removed and an odd wheel
put in its place. Other bicycles have
had the saddles and bells altered
or the frame changed in such a wal
as 20 be practically unacceptable.

such that wild birds feed from his
hand.
He does not believe that he shall
always be a horse, but thinks after an
allotted period on earth he will live
again as man and horse alternately
until, as he says. his soul finds it's
way to God and infinity.'
Why should I not" says Waltern,
provide for my future comfort as an
animal out of what l have been able
to accumulate as man."
On his estate is a splendid mauso-
leum in which his wife and child
are buried, and In which his body
Is to be placed. In front Of the MAUI
soleum is marble altar carved with
mystic emblems-and here at night
he burns vari-colored strange fires,
while chanting in an unknown tongue.
Such lamentations he held when he
buried his wife. The country folk
declare that the pail Of smoke en-
circled the open iron door Of the
tomb, shower of meteors fell, and
that peeping neighbors fed in terror.
His neighbors take him seriously

A HORSE after DEATH.

ROCKVILLE, Ont. June 26.--The
will of James J. waltern of Leeds
county is a curious document. He
believes that after death the first
colt born on his place will contain
his soul. That the colt may have
proper care he has built a very fine
brick stable. fitted with blinds for
hot days, and in one corner of the
room is spring Of running water.
In his will he gives his vast estate
to his grandniece, Miss Irene Cath

care as horse-and he is not to be
sold when as q horse he becomes
blind. lame, or indifferent to work.
He is to be placed in the stable as
soon as he, in his colt form, is
weaned.
Waltern believes that all animals
are animated by the souls of departed
persons and reflect their various dis
positions. He has always been very
kind to animals. and his power is
