AN OPPORTUNITY . IS SLIPPING AWAY
But the Door is Yet Open at Balke's
 Big Curio Store.

Proprietor R. l.. Bake of the Big Curio store is marking time" against his departure for Europe two weeks from yesterday. In the meantime he is disposing of all goods at cut prices. Not only are souvenir hunters and buy CTS of gifts thronging the store to take advantage of this opportunity. bu- many are buying because they believe with good reason that this is a chance that will not last forever and will not soon come again.
 So large and varied is the stock that one cannot fail to find in it something that will not be of use to him either now or soon and if it is not obtained nov, more will have to be paid for it later
 Before he leaves, MT. Bake would like tO meet as many of his patrons as possible for it will be several months before he will see them again. The re- lation between the store and it's patrons have always been of the friendliest character. for satisfied patron is al- ways a friend. and every patron of the Big Curio store is satisfied.

CAN MAKE NEW
TRANSFER RULES
Beard OF Works Is Given Wide
Jurisdiction in Commissions
Decision.

When the decision of the Supreme
Court confirming the order of the
Public Utilities Commission in giving
the city regulating powers in the mat
ter of transfers was handed down the
real strength of the decision was not
at first made apparent. on analysis
by Il leading attorney it developed that
the Board of Works has full control
OF the transfer situation, can, If 1t
chooses, order a transfer on a transfer.
The Supreme Court so ruled. Further
than that. the board has the right to
frame ordinances and make its own
transfer regulations.
1t has beer the custom of the Public
Service to change it's transfer system
whenever it chose to do so, without
consulting the Board of Works. This
will not longer be possible. The board
will have to approve every change
made.
In some quarters it was declared
that the decision did not give the right
to order a transfer on a transfer. But
the decision says: THE order under re-
view does not violate any contract
right of the prosecutor, because the
giving of transfers and the efficiency
to be given them was written with the
reservation subject to- any future regu-
lations of the board"
This Is construed to mean that the
board has absolute seharge of the
.ysltuation and has scored every point 1T
Ia asked for. In his petition to the utili-
ties board Mr.. Mungle asked that a
transfer on a transfer be given to AXE
a passenger to his destination in ae-
cordanee with an ordinance covering
this matter. Both the utilities board
and the Supreme Court approve this.
The victory won by the city is
sweeping and will solve the transfer
problem on which Board of Works
Commissioner Mungle has so long
worked. 1t viii be possible hereafter
for a person to go to his destination
on a five-cent fare, no matter if two
transfers are necessary.
It is understood that the Public
Service will take the case to the Court
of Errors and Appeals.

BOYS DRUNK ON LIQUOR
THEY FOUND WELL AGAIN.

Two very penitent little boys APP
peared in the Second Precinct Police
Court today. Christmas afternoon
they had gone for a long walk into
Belleville. They had found a pint flask
of something that tasted sweet and re-
%freshing, and, boylike, they had de-
cided it was good to drink.
After they had walked a short dis
tance further they both fell uncon-
scious. In other words, they were dead
drunk. Today they were discharged
from the City Hospital.
Judge Herr advised them to be care
full as to what they eat and drink and
let them go. The boys are Arthur
Kastner. 10 years old, of 80 CLARK
street. and John Russell, u, of !
Spring street.
