 Although New York has a small army of between eight and nine thousand po- licemen, the finest" on earth, they are able to do very little more than hold in check the still bigger army of outlaws of all descriptions against whom they are ptted. They are not able to do even that for the amount of crime perpetrat- ed in a single twenty-four hours is un- questionably greater than fin any other city in the world. Stories of the most heinous villany fill the morning and evening newspapers, to the exclusion of almost everything else. Murderous as

Every day there becomes a lar
ger demand for houses and there
are none to be had. This is pe-
coming a serious proposition and
there will always be a demand for
houses for rent. In town or out
there is not a building that can be
rented. Those new settlers who
are anxious to move in so as to BE-
ready to begin work on their farms
will want some place to stay until
they can get their homes erected.
Some one who wants a good in
