SLEITHS MUST PATROL.
II Detective SerErauts on Precinct Duty
Ordered TO Don Uniforms

Police Commissioner McAdoo sent out
a general order yesterday directing that
all detective sergeants assigned to pre-
cincts should hereafter do patrol duty in
uniform. The order affected nearly forty
men, but before it was issued the Police
Commissioner transferred sixteen Of the
detective sergeants back to the Central
Office They are:
Richard A. Finn. Elizabeth street station
William p. Judge, Leonard street station:
Edward j. Armstrong. Leonard street sta
t,on VIVIAN HIN sy Imos hslIbersy street
station: John Leonard. Union Market station;
ssssjen: wMIlism tsl6y, &sss isssh :,rsss
station; John p. Diefenthaler, West, i52d
street station William :. Sapper. Macdousal
seventh street station; Benjamin G. Sche ffier.
West Tooth street station: Thomas p Foody.
East l2eth street station.
In announcing the transfers Mr.. McAdoo
said that detective sergeants who had not
shown any particular merit as detectives
while in the Detective Bureau had been
doing similar work in various precincts.
Now he had come to the conclusion that IL
they were not good detectives while at Head
quarters they certainly were not qualified
He thought it about time they went back
into uniform.
The sixteen detective sergeants we're
transferred back to the command Of Acting
Inspector OBrien, because no men were
needed at Police Headquarters. On that
subject Mr.. McAdoo said that he might
make two. three or perhaps four detective
sergeants in day or two. Patrolmen and
not roundsmen will be selected
when came into the Police Depart
ment said MIR; McAdoo, i announced that
it would not be my policy to raise any
patrolmen to the rank of detective sergeant.
Although the law gave me the right, con-
sidered that the power had been abused.
There are now some men deserving of
the increased rank and pay They have
earned it and they can do good work in the
Detective Bureau. No men will be dropped
from that bureau.
These promotions will be made solely
for merit. The surest way for patrolman
to miss the promotion is to bring friends to
see me or to write to me. These will settle
their chances.

hours and wandered in half dazed condi-
ton into the well known basement and
there lay down and died

The sweeneys Meet.

The Sweeneys Meet.
Perhaps the most enthusiastic fire
meeting ever held IN the city was
held in the Tom Sweeney Hose par
lors last Wednesday evening.
The committees appointed TO ar
range for the dance to be held on
Thanksgiving at Armory hall gave
very satisfactory reports and things
are now in shape to hold the best
dance ever held by this company.
Mayor Emrick, who is an enthus-
iastic member Of this organization,
again demonstrated his ability to
see into the dim and distant by ins
PRODUCING a resolution that the
secretary prepare plat of all the
fire plugs in the city and post it in a
conspicuous place in the hose house.
Each new member admitted to the
company will have to pass a rigid
examination on the location of these
plugs and the present membership
will hold classes for the instruction
of it's members in the location of the
plugs.
1t will, perhaps, be news to mem
bers as well as property owners tc
know that there are upwards of 100
plugs in the city and venturing a
guess, there is not one member o1
the fire department or ordinary citi'
zen who knows Of the location of 81
of these plugs.
For this reason, the resolution in
troduced by Mayor Emriek is an i'm
portant one and one that will be o
vast value to property owners il

Col. CLARK Comes to Rapid.

Keystone Recorder:-Col. Jas. A.
CLARK moved his family to Rapid
City the first of the week, where
they recently purchased handsome
residence, to spend the winter there,
and Dorothy will attend school.
The Colonel, we are glad to say, will
spend a large portion of his time
here looking after his extensive
mining interests, for keystone can
not well afford to lose such a good
hustler at the present time.
Col. Clark has great faith in the
Southern Hills so his temporary resi-
dence in Rapid City will not cause
him to lose any interest in mining
operations in this district. He has
backed this faith by investments,
by himself and his eastern associates,
in large amount of mining ground
which he has been developing for
some years past, and in connection
Herewith has built nearly twenty
miles of good wagon roads through
out the district. Hels now com plet-
ing road to new shaft recently
started on what was formerly known
as the Phinney property, near the
)mouth of Coon Hollow. This prop
erty is known to be an excellent
one and we trust that the Col. and
his associates in the enterprise, will
soon bring it to the front as a pay
ing proposition.
His latest purchase, is group
near the ]. R. r.ine, known as the
American and Little Jap odes which
are now beng surveyed.

To Help the Town.

Every mail brings in numberless
inquiries from people who want to
know something Of Rapid City and
its resources, prospects, etc. There
is not a printed sheet of advertising
matter of any character at present
available for this purpose. The sit
uation demands immediate attention.
Our Commercial Club has not the
funds at hand at present to pay for
matter of this kind, and are practi-
cally powerless to do more than to
write personal letters.
For the purpsse of relieving the
situation, the publishers of the
Union have carefully compiled and
printed neat little folder that will
fit nicely in an ordinary envelope.
This folder tells the whole story
as we'll as can be done in that class
of advertising matter. There are
no illustrations just plain facts, as
may be seen in another column of
this issue. where the matter is re-
produced. A nominal charge is
made for these folders, which, it is
hoped, will defray the expense of
compiling and printing. Our solicit
tor will call on merchants and those
whom he thinks may be interested,
for orders for these folders, as it is
necessary to know a few days in ad-
vance about how large an edition
will be required.
THE UNION is DOING ITS
SHARE.

city council so that they could be
perfectly distinguishable at night,
and he thought that the move would
be entirely acceptable to that body.
For years past the fire companies
in the city have not entered into the
work of keeping the organizations
alive with the zeal that should be
manifest but last Wednesday marked
a change that is bound to bring
order out of. chaos, as far as the
organizations are concerned.
1t has been the habit Of citizens
and most anyone who happened to
be in proximity of the hose carts to
grab on and endeayor to do some
thing, while in fact they are more
often in the way and sometimes re-
tard the work of the fremen. The
company says this will soon be
changed, and outsiders should in the
future be careful in regard to their
enthusiasm in quenching fires as
the companies are perfectly able to
cope with all emergencies, and if
not, the fire chief will call the aid of
any he might need, This hint to
the "wise ones" should be appreciat-
ed and made use of at once, for the
lesson will be more forciblv ex-
pressed by action in the future.
Now is the time for the property
owners to show some of their en-
thusiasm and do their utmost to
support the Sweeneys in their good
work. The committee appointed for
the sale OF tickets is around this
week with tickets which cost LOO
and there is no limit to the number
any one person can buy.

An Editors Proclamation.

Whereas, the president OF the
United States and the governor of
South Dakota have seen fit to desig-
nate day for the national and state
Thanksgiving and believing it to be
fit and proper that the good people
of Arlington should be as thankful
as the rest of them.
Therefore, I, H. M. Keene, editor
and publisher of the Arlington Sun,
a legal newspaper published in the
fiourishing city of Arlington, and
the best newspaper published in
said city, (being the only one) do
hereby designate and appoint Thurs
day, the thirtieth day of November,
as day of Thanksgiving and Gran
berry sause
The past year has seen many
notable improvements in Arlington,
not the least OF which has been the
lengthning of the subscription list
of this great paper. The city has
grown and prospered. Guy Gazeley
has added a new line of crockery to
his store; the old town we'll in the
middle of Olaf street has been filled
up, new town we'll has been COM
menced and is being pushed to the
bottom: Dick Max we'll has taken the
oil tank from the street in front of
his store; the old water tank has
been removed from Lanson street;
the opera house has been supplied
with new drop curtain; Hollis Hall
has been swept out. Everybody
wears Roosevelt smile, and the
Sun took in three dollars last week
on subscription. The year has been
one of abundance and every man
who comes town has load of grain
and every woman baby. 1t is fit
ing that we stop for one day in our
mad rush for life insurance director
ships, and eat turkey in token OF
our great satisfaction IN our selves
aud our forgiveness of our neigh
bors.
i It is therefore recommended that
on Thursday, the thirtieth day Of
November, that every store be
closed and that a respectable mum
ber be delegated to attend divine
services on this, the great day O
I the year when the churches stoE
fighting and meet together in peace
/ and accord, and the church choirs
sing together in dreadful unison.
J 1t is further recommended, tha
at the feast, which is the main ob
ject of the day, the children be serv
ed at the first table, as their ap
{ petites are the keenest, and thei
, ability to be Thankful! thus th
greatest,
