DAYS OF BOARD
PROBABLY FEW
Mayor Fern After Information
That May Result In Present
Civil Service Commissioners
Losing Jobs, Says Report; Sup
crvisors May Discuss Question
Today.
(From Tuesday Advcrtiscr.)


Mayor Fern ism I worried very much,
but he would just like to know. For
this reason he is going to take up with
the city attorney a technical question
of law governing his right to rcappoint
the members OF the civil service COM
mission, or to appoint others IN their
places, before January /, 1914.
1t was stated yesterday by members
of the hoard of supervisors that should
Mayor Fern reappoint the present mem.
bcrs of the commission the board would
refuse to confirm the appointments. 1t
is possible that this question may come
up at the meeting oil the boar" at noon
today, although the meeting is ostcn.
sibly to pass Christmas payrolls and
to take up with the harbor board the
question of waterfront paving.
1t was stated yesterday that mem
bers of the civil service commission
have raised The question that under
the law they are appointed for the term
ending December 81, 1914, or "A year
from now, on the ground that the act
constituting the board states that the
mayor shall appoint its members on or
before the first OF the year.
As the commissioners now serving
were appointed since January !, 1913,
they contend it was for the balance of
this year and next year as well.
cit is true that the commissioners
were appointed only about six months
ago. said Mayor Fera yesterday, "and
/ have heard of their contention that
they are holdovers. Maybe there is
something in it, although the law gives
me the power OF appointment. ] pro

city attorney, and will ask him for an
opinion in time for me to make APP
pOintments, if necessary.
The condition of the police depart

filed with politics and opposition to
Sheriff Jarrett, the head of the depart
ment, that many of the supervisors be

Bio balloons to Have Wheels.

German manufacturers of dirigible
airships are seeking a landing APP
paratus that will insure the safety of
their delicate gas bags. Many of the
most serious accidents to Count Yep
pelin's craft in the past were due to
faulty landings.
A car of considerable length re-
quires the most righteousness in eff
fecting a landing, for an uneven sur
face is liable to warp the structure
of the gigantic balloon. causing it to
burst.
Landing cars are now being pro-
vided on which the huge gas bag
rests when il is drawn. to earth.
These are equipped with wheels and
assist in locomotion when the craft
is being towed into its hangar 1t is
provided with a series of cushions
along the side, and has graphing
arms that catch and hold the enve-
lope of the balloon.

BOYS LIKE TO OWN THINGS
May Keep" and He Will Treas
ure Them.

The average boy believes firmly ir
the principle Of the private ownership
Of personal property. He would rataer
be the sole possessor Of a broken
handled knife with no blades than a
pearl handled, four-bladed affair In
partnership. asserts Thomas w. Lloyd
in the Mothers Magazine.
In fact. the desire to own something
Ito possess property-is inherent in
all mankind And mothers should en-
deavor TO foster this desire. Il viii
not only increase the boys happiness,
but will teach him the value Of acqui-
sition. within proper limits. He
should have his own playthings. his
own tools. his own books. his own
clothes, and place OF his own In
which to keep them.
A boy who is permitted to do this
will take better care of things than IL
owned in partnership. and he Will
learn eagerly TO have a place for his
things and to keep them in their
place. And this is a valuable lesson.
DO not make a younger boy wear his
older brothers clothing which the
latter has outgrown, if it can be avoid
el. or course in some families,
where every cent counts, this cannot
be helped. Every boy. and we speak
from experience. hates to wear an
others clothes He wants his own.
Give him his own bureau drawer
and at least a portion OF closet. and
teach him habits OF orderliness and
system in the care Of his possessions.
These habits are easily learned when
young, and their value to the man OF
business is incalculable.

ALWAYS HAD CHANGE COMING
Escaped Inmate Of Ohio Asylum Only
Had TO Return 10 Secure His
Two Dollars.

The escape OF Harry Kendall Thaw
from Matteawan recalled the sensa-

county jail several months ago to
reporter of the Cleveland Leader.
There was no chop suey at Mat
teawan, was there?" the reporter ask
ed. So far as could be learned there
was none.
Solemnly motioning Ike, the waiter,
to bring another potation, he ex-
planned the mystery of his chop suey
remark.
when McNicholas escaped from
the county Jail he was in the hospital
ward A few minutes before he made
his getaway he asked me to get him
two plates of chop suey The oblig-
ing son of Manchu demanded de-
posit of two dollars. McNicholas was
rich. anS | paid The deposit.
When reache,4 the Jail with the
steaming dishes | found that Nc
Nicholas had flown. And there were
two dishes of chop suey on my
hands.
Sheriff Smith waved me away.
tried to explain that there was money
due McNicholas from the Chinaman.
Nothing doing; he was too busy try
ing to apprehend McNicholas.
Il ate the chop suey and kept the
two dollars. Some day when | run

of chop suey and pay him two dol
