Recent investigations into the workings OF the
Office Of the President Of the Borough Of Man
haitian have shown il he one Of the worst
IL the city administration. The responsible
head. John Francis Ahearn. though elected by
the people, has been summoned By Governor
Hughes TO show cause before September III
why he should not be removed from Office In
this way the city may get rid of an Official
whose tenure was marked by ineficiency, waste
and corruption. according to the findings OF TIC
investigating commission
BIT the city viii rot thus get rid of the sys-
tern that has made all this possible. Nor VIII
il be able to recover IA single dollar OF the
money that has been wronSfully, wastefuily
and corruptIy expended.
In the three years that Mr.. Ahearn has oc-
capied the position of Borough President he has
had control Of an expenditure totaibng S2L-
aa4 az OF this amount it was shown that
81 Cos 49, was spent in the purchase of supplies
without public tender being asked, as required
by Law. It was proven that many OF the pay
rolls amounting in all s5.942.1S7 were
padded with names Of men who never did
DAYS work for the department. Even in the
expenditures MADE under contract. totaling Sill
443.473 in the three years. IL was proved that
little effort was made 10 compel contractors 10
keep up to their obligations.
Fully a third OF the total expenditure during
the three years, 1t is asserted. was lost TO the
city through the manner in which the Depart
nneat was administered. and the third amount
ed TO S54e00G0.
But there has been q further loss. even more
important and costly than all the actual money
that was souandered by a waSteful and corrupt
administration. One of the chief duties OF the
Borough President is the care OF the puplic
streets n, Manhattan Though he shown

Modern Naval Warfare.

Nothing in all modern times has ad-
vanced more rapidly than naval en-
gineering and warfare. Ever since the
public has been impressed with the
fact that nations life depends on it's
navy, it has been becoming more and
more interested. But as it makes dul
reading and as very few have had any
opportunity to inspect monster Bat
tleship at close range, most of us have,
at least, only vague sense of its mag
nitude and power. Therefore Lyman
ii. Howe's moving pictures of great
naval attack, in Emporium Opera
House on Thursday, Oct. 31st. will
prove not only distinctly novel and in
structive, but will crafty much nat
ural curiosity. To many minds, the
series will impart the first true and full
conception of naval realities, for how
ever much we may have read of them,
nothing conveys ideas more clearly
than seeing actualities. The pictures
were secured only thru special facilities
given by the Lords of the Admiralty,
England, and as Mr.. Howe controls
the sole American rights for the great
er portion, they are exhibited in this
country only by him. The scene
showing the physical drill and amuse-
ments aboard ship, are followed by
perfect views of the leatst sub marines
in cruising trim, and with only their
backs and coming towers visible.
Then realistic torpedo attack is
shown. These deadly and terrible
weapons are shown leaving their muz-
zles and ploughing the sea. AS they
speed directly toward the audience,
their paths are plainly visible. A
t)uching scene showing Jacks last
farewell to his sweetheart just before
the battle, is then introduced as nat
ural incident of the tragedies of war.
1t is 80 finely and pathetically portray
ed that it appeals forcefully to all hu-
man sympathy. The series concludes
with scenes of land attack by naval
forces. The vigorous bombardment
from the gunboats to shield the land.
ing troops is followed by the flight up
the slope, landing and hauling 4 z
gun, and armored train and maxim
battery in action. Finally the repulse
is shown amid the boom of artillery
and crackle OF rifles, and the invaders
are seen racing with their guns for the
boats, while the victors fall in line of
march to headquarters.
