Capt. Baker said he would either
assign a policeman for duty in the
treasurer's office over night or have
members OF the bank squad visit the

Mr.. Koch says that this Is the irst
time In soine years that there has been

but that his request was overlooked.
The treasurer banks as much OF the
taxes as he can during the day, but
there is always a big collection after
the banks close.
ut would be the easiest thing In the
world for burglars TO loot our vault,
said Mr.. Koch. 1T Is true that we

MINEOLA, L. l.. July 27.-Sailing
around a specially surveyed course OF
four and one-half miles, st. Croix
tombstone is endeavoring to establish
a new American record for continuous
flight. He went up In his monoplane
at STA o'clock and kept his machine
humming along. He had fifty gallons
In his tanks and hoped to continue
till all OF the fluid was exhausted.
Officials OF the Aero club were on
hand to keep track Of his movements
although IL was not believed that he
could reach the worlds figures for con-
tinuous aerodrome flying.
tombstone was compelled to come
to earth at ole, when his motor be-
gan TO miss and his hopes of setting
a new record came a cropper. His
time of hours 2 minutes, was new
American record but far short OF the
foreign mark, tombstone covered the
marked course 80 times.

New Year Days.

New Year is after all only an express
sion OF relative chronological calcula-
ton. Probably most people in the United
States think the year began on the LIST
Of January. two weeks ago. But ac-
cording to the Russian calendar the new
year begins today. The Chinese have
still another starting point for the solar
cycle. their new year falling on the 3Oth
of this month, while the Hebraic calen-
dar for the present year calls for a cele-
bration Of that event on the Sd Of Sep
tember The Mohammedan new year
falls on the md of January, and doubtless
other religious denominations and other
sects have still different modes Of COM
putation. A man might make New Year
resolutions all the year round il he would
only watch the almanac and take note
of the different dates on which various
peoples start their reckoning.

The Hiding Hyde Found.

1t is hard for a man to hide from public
view nowadays, II he Is at all we'll known.
and especially IL he is in demand any,
where. Take the case Of Chamberlain
Hyde of New York, for instance. AS
The Star was pointing out the other day.
Mr. Hyde some time ago concluded that
he did not desire to answer certain uues
tions on the witness stand and quietly
slipped away for a rest. Gradually the
absence of the chamberlain became a
matter of public concern, eliminating in
a positive demand for his return when
certain banks fell into trouble and tha
safety Of the city funds was menaced
