Navy Man Has Five
Chairs, But Has No
( SIS Place to Put Them

For sale-Ffve chairs for the inaugural
parade.
This Is not an advertisement to make
money. It is one to save money. the
owner of the chairs having bought them
and then found that he had. no use for
them. =
But to come to the story
Inaugural parade vantage points,
windows. grandstands, flag poles. and
trees. are distinctly valuable and not
only cost money, but are hard TO get at
any price. Recognizing this, Gen. A. l..
Mills. owner of the Mills building. at
Seventeenth and Pennsylvania avenue,
thought he would acquire a sure seat at
q reasonable price by obtaining from
the Navy Department one of the rooms
from which one may look down the
Avenue directly into the court of honor.
The Navy Department leases the en-
tire building. Not only that. but Gen
eral Mills linked" the rent last year
and the Navy Department paid the in
crease. When General Mills made his
request that the Navy Department give
viewpoints. he, asked only for a window.
but succeeded IN getting a whole room.
Now about the chairs
orders have gone forth in the Navy
Department that those employees in the
Mills building who wish to view the
parade from the rooms in which they
usually work should make anDlication.
Promptly ever available place was
taken, most OF the men expecting to
give their families an unsurpassed view
Of the great parade. One employe. so
misguided, bought five camp chairs,
which he expected to place IN front of a
window where he would place his family
and himself and watch the moving con-
course below.
This particular room is the one that
the Navy Department has, for March 4.
retroceded. without money or other COM
pensation, to General Mills
As q result this Navy Department en-
ploye has no use for the five chairs.
They were intended for the inaugural
parade, but, as the purchaser must find
place to put them. they are not ex-
pected to bring a specially high price

new, and hardly advanced beyond the
experimental stage. probably very few of
the smaller postofficcs are as vet ade-
q%uatcly equipped for handling this bus
mess. This is the case ut the Brownsville
pOStOffice, at any rate, no additional
racks or mailing tables having been in
stalled since the parcel post was inaug-
urated
This viii be the first Christmas sea

purpose of playing Santa Claus by mail.
The department is already sending out
instructions and making preparations

peditiOusly as possible. 1t is expected
that the volume Of the parcel business
will be increased so greatly at Browns

ton to the regular carrier service. for
the distribution of percels.
In this connection. it should be remem-

POLICE ARE BEING PAID
RIFT MORE TROUBLES IN CITY:S Fl
NANCES MAY COME UP AT NEAT
PAY DAY.

The warrants for the salaries of the
city police are being paid, and things
are again quiet in the department cir
clcs. at least until next month rolls
around. City Treasurer Antonio Benavl
des stated today that with the payment
of the city's expenses for last month
the entire appropriation for the opera
ton of municipal affairs for the past
wear will have been used up, and unless
a tax levy and a budget is made, there
will be no money next month for any OF
the departments.
The operating expenses of the city
amount to about $1,000 a month. Some
collections will be made during this
month. for instance the rentals in the
city city market, which amount to about
5000 \ month. and a few other smaller
items. but an these receipts will go to
he third class fund. The first class
fund will have no additional sums this
month, and unless there is 4 levy soon
there will be no money for any OF the
city officials or the police.
Mr.. Benavides stated that a report
published Yesterday that he was buying
city scrip at a discount Of 10 per cent
was entirely wrong. He said that he has
made no offers to purchase the scrip,
but as a favor to a few of his friends he
had taken their warrants at face Vaiue.
until he had used up his private funds.
Thereafter he informed those bringing
warrants that he could not take them.
that they perhaps could get them cashed
elsewhere accepting a loss of ten per
cent.
