it was duty that was imposed en- the
office that should be done without pay.

rendered his opinion that the work
should he paid for by the county at
the same rate as paid the assessor fer

BOARD HOLDS
HAS AUTHORITY
IF PETITION is PROPERLY AMEND.
ED, CHIEF OF POLICE WILL BE
TRIED.

At the meeting of the board Of city
commissioners held last night for
the purpose of hearing the report of
the city attorney on the charges filed
by the executive committee of the
Law and Order League against Chief
of Police Booker, accepted the report
of the attorney, held in substance
that they had right to conduct the
trial, referred the charges black to
the League to be made more specific
and set Saturday night at o'clock as
the date to hear the corrected charges
and if they are deemed specific
enough to warrant a hearing, a date
will be set for the beginning of the
trial
The motion was made by COmmis
sioner Slaughter, received a second
from Commissioner Carter, and car
ried unanimously.
City Attorney Mason made a writ
ten report holding that sections >, 6
and 7 were not specific enough, but
might probably be considered so and
holding that the other sections were
not specific enough to warrant hear
ing.
Jurge Harreld appeared as attorney
for the League, and stated that the
charges were hastily drawn and
would be amended, but he argued at
length concerning the charges in sec
ton /, maintaining that they were suf-
ficient to warrant an examination. The
attorney read the charter providing
for the removal of the chief of police
and stated that the charter took pre-
cedence over the statutes of the state,
but not over the constitution.
James II. Mathers appeared for the
chief. He stated that the only legal
way to put the chief on trial was
through the county attorney or
through grand jury indictment He
said the fact that no appeal was
granted made the charter void, and ar
gued the question from the stand
point of the constitution, maintaining
that the commissioners lad no right
to order and to conduct the trial.
In his speech Mr.. Mathers stated
that libel suits would be filed the
next day against those who signed
the charges against Booker.
In this regard Chief Booker stated
today that his attorney acted without
his knowledge or consent. That he
did not intend to file suits today but
did not know what might be done
later.
The next meeting of the commits
sion is set for s o'clock Saturday eve
ming.

Man Makes Denial.

Memphis, Tenn, Oct. 30-Meai
Barr, aged 81, who was brought
from the state reformatory at JEFF
fersonyille Ind, to Memphis early
yesterday morning for Dallas author
tiles as suspect in the mysterious
killing of Miss Florence Brown in
that city July 2S of this year, stout
ly denies that had even the remot-
est connection with her death.
This morning he was given a
griling in his cell in the police sta
tion by j. w. Ryan chief of police:
E. NJ. Dewitt, city detective, and
Currie McCutcheon, prosecuting at
torney, all of Dallas; Major David
Peyton, general superintendent of
the Indiana reformatory; Chief W.
]. Hayes and other members of the
Memphis police department.
There is no doubt that this in
terview rather chilled the enthusiasm
of the men, who believed that he
had made a confession of guilt. His
iranlness and cheerfulness under the
terrible accusation fell like pail
on the case. He willingly lays bare
all his record, but denies that he
knew or killed the Dallas woman.
He admits that he left Dallas on
the evening of the day Miss Brown
was killed and that he heard the
reports over the city Of the crime,
but that he had no connection with
the deed and never dreamed that
he would ever be charged with II.
He is willing to go anywhere the
officers say and has signed a waiver
to return to Dallas or to any point
the officers say without a requisition.
In fact. the officers seem unable
to make any sort of statement about
the case. They act like they were
IN state of doubt and uncertainty.

FLOWERS IN THE HOUSEHOLD
Simple Methods That Will Keep Them
Alive, Fragrant, and Pleasure
for Many Days.

To make flowers last a week or
more, four things are necessary. First,
do not try to arrange them the mo-
ment you get them, but put them in
pail of water for a few hours. so that
every stem will be under water up to
the flower. Second, cleanse the vase
thoroughly before putting in the flow
ers and change the water every day.
Third, the cooler you keep the flowers
the longer they will last. If you are
too busy in the morning to enjoy them
or have to go out for the afternoon, do
not leave them in the living-room, for
they are not used to such a tempera-
ture. Every night put the vase in
cool place, or better still, plunge the
stems up to the flowers in a pail Of
water. Fourth, cut about quarter Of
an inch off each stem in the morning
1t is more trouble to do this under
water, but it pays. If you cut the
stems in the ordinary way air bubbles
get into the stems and impede the TAX
ing in of water.-Delineator
