year they contained $41I 900. From
this il will be seen that in less than
four years the savings of the city have
amounted to S654.OO0. In 1908 the
profits OF the city waterUOrks system
amounted 10 &1000oO. and these profits
are being Swniled with each succeed

The forward strides of the city have
been SO rapid under the Guickening in
tiuence of good government conditions
that Dallas ana the county in which
it is located are preparing to build the
largest concrete viaduct in the world

of volunteers, who had ocered their
blood in response to a want advertise
ment, TRANSMISSION operation was per-
formed tonight at the Polytechnic hos
pital. The patient was David Poloco,
poor tailor suffering from internal
hemorrhages, whose family had already
given all the blood their physician
would allow and had advertised to
give their savings for a volunteer.
The subject, who hid his identity
under the name of Smith," was a
powerful looking man of about 26 years
of age, who came to the hospital in
taxicab, and is said to be member of
a prominent family in this city. The
TRANSMISSION was allowed to continue
for thirty minutes Among those who
had volunteered to be subjects was one

the board of commissioners until Feb
ruary 2 to designate the two banks
as county depositaries. From the time
the writ was issued to February 8 the
board had held two meetings and did
not obey the order of the writ. So on
that date Judge Winchester issued
warrant of attachment against Messrs.
Russ and Crawford in order that they
might be brought before him to show
cause why they should not be punished
for contempt. That was the action that
was decided Monday. Commissioner
John De Krey was not named as de-
PENDANT in the contempt proceedings,
as it is understood that he voted to
obey the orders contained in the writ.
'Just why the commissioners did not
obey the order of the writ" said Mr..

the commissioners testified that they
were advised by States Attorney STAN
ley that inasmuch as they had appealed
their case to the supreme court they
were relieved from the necessity Of
obeying it."

thought that they were relieved of obey

thermore stated that they had at a
