were examined by the board OF public
safety last night on matters of gen
eral interest, this being in line with
the new rule adopted by the board in
the matter of making additions to the
police force. Those examined were
Messrs. B. H. Bryars. Elliott Nc
Closkey. T. O. McNair and 8. f. BO-
CART As q general thing, questions
were answered correctly, but some Of
them were not answered at all. This
was in line with instructions given
by the chairman of the board in open
meeting that ''if you don't know the
correct reply, don't guess at 1t" The
gentlemen stumbled over some they
attempted to reply to, but substantial
" their replies were passed. Mr.. Bly,
ars was not so good in locating offices
and new buildings. He has been out
of the city for two years, but always
kept his poll tax paid here, and al
ways regarded this as his home.
Things had changed around so much
that to correctly locate certain bust
ness houses confused him to some
extent.
Appointments are made in the po-
lice department pending satisfactory
physical and mental examination. A
certain weight and height have to be
shown, then the intellectual test
comes later. Care will be exercised
in the conduct of these examinations
in the future, and by this means the
marshal expects to get tirSt-claSS
force in short order.
Sixty questions were asked OF each
candidate for appointment last night.
