RICH ITALIAN
HAS VANISHED

Louie Repoli, an Italian maca.
roni manufacturer, who perhaps
has been in more court troubles
than any man of his race in the
city, Is missing and his fearful
wife has not seen him since Janu-
AIRY 7. Repoli is "A years old,
about five feet four inches in
height, stout built, very dark COM
plexioned, black hair and mus
tache. intermixed with gray.
Repoli's sudden disappearance
is enshrouded In mystery, as far
as his wife and the police are con-
cerned. He owns much property

The new board Of county COM
missioners today called halt in
the matter of overtime for deputies
in the county offlces, or in other
service for the county.
Through the aid of this system
of getting county money, deputies
getting from SIS to 500 per month
have at times been able to pile up
salary charges as high as 5000 in a
single month, which bills were al
lowed without question.
The county commissioners today
instructed their clerk, Charles How
ard, to send written notice to every
county officer or head of depart
ment that the commissioners will
not hereafter under any circum-
stances make allowance for over
time.
Another reform that the new
commissioners have concluded to
inaugurate Is the checking Of
county supplies. In the good old
days of the past these supplies
were purchased at will without the
commissioners knowing whether
they were needed or not, and after
such purchase no further track of
the article was kept. The commits
sioners propose to take an invoice
of all supplies belonging to the
county and to see that an article Is
needed before it is bought.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-Dis-
elimination against Chinese will be
abolished, but exclusion more abso-
lutte than now will result II the bill
to be prepared 10 passed by this
congress. The measure will incor.
porate the exclusion law in the gen.

in the section the two words, "Asi-
attic iaborers."
This action Is calculated to solve
the Japanese immigration problem.
II Is reported that the bill meets
the approval Of the administration.

new BOARD CUTS OFF
OLD Time EASY MONEY
No More Over Time Graft nor Living High
at Expense Of the County.

the court house and county store
keeper will be created, and this Off
cial will be required to at all times
keep tab on the property of the
county. Win property becomes
worn out the commissioners will
personally see that 1t is destroyed
so the storekeeper will have no
chance to ring it in later in the
place of supplies supposed to have
been purchased.
In all probability the new COM
missioners will cut out the practice
that has prevailed under the old
board of the commissioners dining
every noon at the county expense.
IF l am too busy or too lazy to
go home the midday meal l will
never ask the county to pay for
it," said Commissioner Phillips to-
day noon, as he munched content
eddy on an apple and piece Of
cake. "If l want to sleep here at
night the county has plenty good
beds upstairs and maintains fire all
night, so there is no use In me ask
ing the county to pay for a bed"
Under the old regime the county
paid for the meals and beds for the
members of the board.
A fw other surpriss are in store
for those who have been in the
habit of running their hands into
the county treasury without protest
on the part of the commissioners.

the number cared for there has
gone up from $50 a, night until
