 Are you on duty here?" asked Gen eral King, with a show of anger.
 "I guess so,'' said the raw recruit. "They sent me out here, anyway
 Do you remember your general or ders?" asked the general.
 q guess I do-some of them," said the raw recruit.
 Well" said the general, don't you know that you are supposed to salute your officers? Do you know I am the general of this brigade?''
 "You the general?" said the raw re- cruit Gosh, no; I didn't know it. I thought you was the chief of the fire department"

ballot boxes and they are then sealed
up. The poll books are sealed in large
envelopes. Both are delivered to the

it takes these sealed returns from each
precinct. checks over the poll books

CITY TAX
LEVY FIXED
AT Fl MILLS

4 special meeting OF the city coui-
ell was held Monday night with May
or Smith presiding to fix the tax levy
for municipal purposes for the fiscal
year beginning April first. 1913, and
the consideration of other matters OF
interest. After an exhaustive discus
sion of the probable demands upon
the city treasury during the mkt
twelve months ii was voted to fix the
levy at twenty-one mills, which is the
same as it was last year. and one mall
less than the assessmsnt of 1911. II
is computed that a twenty-one mill
levy will yield revenue OF thirty
Eve thousand dollars, which, it is es-
tlmated. will be sufficient to meet all
OF the requirements of an economical.
but efficient. administration of the city
government. Only once during the
last eighteen or twenty years has the
levy for municipal purposes been less
than the one just made and then the
council managed to get along ON an
assessment OF twenty mills on the
dollar. but was cramped in doing so.
With a twenty-one mill levy the
present council has been able during
the last twelve months TO promptly
meet all of its ordinary expenses and
carry on a somewhat ambitious and
highly commendable program OF pub
iic Improvement. II has constructed
permanent concrete conduits for the
6assage OF the water OF the Hydraulic
ditch across Fourth street. Rudd ave-
nue. and Sixth street and ADVERTISED
for bids for the building OF similar
conduit across Eighth street. These
improvements have cost the city some
thing like seven hundred dollars each,
or an aggregate Of two thousand
eight hundred dollars.
In addition 1t has among other
things, paved with concrete the two
alleys between Main street and Macon
avenue and between Fifth and Sew
enth streets; purchased property and
extended Twelfth street to the Santa
Fe depot: purchased from Dali De
weese fifteen acres OF land fer IN
addition to Lakeside cemetery; Inn
proved at considerable expense ths
Skyline drive. the Tunnel roadway and

er system Of the city. The record
made by the present council is hisAiy
gratifying to ius friends and shows
very clearly It's desire to accomplish
a lasting good for the community

Loga was dead. Congestion of the
lungs brought on by pneumonia is sup

Officials of the company were notified
and gathered at the well when the
bailer, which had been sent down. was
brought to the surface. 1t carried a
quantity of oil and the fumes of gas
were very distinct.
This first raise of oil made 1t plain
to those who are familiar with the
business that genuine oil well had
been discovered. But the company was
not exactly sure as to whether the
right formation had been pierced and
1t was decided to keep the drill at work
for further developments.
THE drilling has been done towards
this Dundee formation on the basis of
where 1t was found in Bay City. As
this stratum runs from 120 to ESQ feet
In depth. President Smith said last
night that probably not over a hun
dred feet more of drilling would be
necessary and possibly not nearly that
much. The drill would be kept going.

supposed to be the Dundee stratum had

Last night the drill had gone down
| to a depth Of 1858 feet, progress of
40 feet after the first appearance of oil.
| With the same speed of penetration in
| to the earth formation continuing the
| oil bearing vein will have been passed
| through in from one to three days and
| the posi- bilities OF oil supply will
be fairly indicated.
| "The well showed strong signs of
natural gas. A flame from two to three
feet high was ket burning at the top
of the pipe when the bailer was raised
pushing the accumulation OF gas up

the surface oil became more plentiful
and gave continually increased reasons
for encouragement on the part of those
interested in the company.
