TOLEDO'S NOVELIST-MAYOR
SENDS STATISTICS HERE
Charter Revision Secretary Gets Be-
lated Data from Brand Whitlock
Showing Municipal Ownership
Profits of His City

Secretary George N. Nolan of the
charter revision commission, who is
now secretary of the Los Angeles
chamber of mines, yesterday received
a belated report from Brand Whitlock,
the literary mayor of Toledo.
Mayor Whitlock explained that he
had been away so much this summer
that he could not pay much attention
to the commissions request for data
on municipal questions and remarks
that he hopes that the data he sends
will be of service.
The commission sent circular letters
to mayors of leading cities and this is
one of many received in response.
A unique feature of the report is that
showing that Toledo has three forms
of public utilities conducted by the
municipality-water works, markets
and cemeteries. The latter is an un-
usual item. All are profitable.
Toledo had 1882 population at last
census and has grown to 100000, 1t is
estimated, with 40,276 children of school
age.
It's assessed valuation is $78, 1884, 280,
with a city tax rate of 1876 mills, and
a county and city rate of 80 mills.
Property is assessed at go per cent
of value. Revenue from taxes is ST.

DRINKS DECIDEDLY NOVEL,
BUT HARDLY POPULAR
Recent Receiving Hospital Records
Show Considerable Ingenuity on
the Part of Women Who
INDUCED in Them

At one time it was thought that men
were innovators IN the matter of dis
covering new beverages, but during the
last month it has been agreed that there
are women in Los Angeles who can
create new drinks, which, while they
never will become popular, have beaten
the ideas of me1 to standstill. Not
more than a week ago a woman was
taken to the receiving hospital to be
treated for an over-indulgence in a
favorite brand OF hair oil. A few days
later this same woman was taken to
the same hospital to be treated for In
toxicatlon resulting from a spree on a
certain kind of perfume.
Yesterday morning Mrs. Bessie O'Dell,
who tie night before drank a quantity
of oil of cloves because she was feel
ing despondent, wal released from the
matron's department of the receiving
hospital and turned loose upon the
world to discover another unconven-
tional drink.
