WAGE SCHEDULE
IS DISCUSSED

Tentative plans for the reorganiza.
tion of the police department We're
drawn up Sunday by the civil service
commissioners at private meeting and
if the plan should be adopted in its
present form it will mean the addition
of $4,000 to the yearly pay roll with
out any increase in salaries
The detective department and the DO
lice arrangements in the outside dis
triets are not affected by the new plan,
which, however, adds seven mounted 20
lice and eleven patrolmen to the force
in the municipal district.
The commissioners added to the pro-
posed makeup of the department an
Instructor and inspector at $l25 a
month who will have no administrative
powers, but whose sole duties will be
the instruction of the officers in the
necessary routine. r
Besides these the only changes CON
templated in the plan discussed Sun
day is the reduction of the salary of
the police chauffeurs from 800 a
month to 800 and increasing the mum.
Der from two to three. At the present
time one chauffeur keeps n watch of
eight hours and the other one watch
of sixteen hours, alternating every two
weeks. Straight eight,hour watches will
be instituted under the new plan.
The city and county detective is kept
ON the roll at $125, or SIS month more
than captains. The organization of the
patroling force is retained.
According to the figures in the re-
eapitulation of the plan at present be-
fore the commissioners the present
yearly pay roll of the department
amounts to $107,220. Under the pro-
posed plan it will amount to $4,000,
the increase occurring excessively within
the municipal district, which is raised
from $7S,120 to 9S,100. The detective
department pay roll will remain at its
present figure, $l5,720, which was set
by the supervisors in their last appro-
priation bill. The outside district pay
roll remains the same at $l3,3s0 80
Considerable discussion was INDUCED
in Sunday but the plan is still marked
l...tentative. 1t is probable that other
changes in this list will be made be.
fore the list is submitted to the su-
pervisors for their approval.

One Hundred Thousand Found in
Mexico, to Surprise of the
American Officials.

WASHINGTON, July "a. - Official
circles of the capital We're startled to-
day by information obtained by Ed
ward !. Bell, well known AS an owner
of newspapers in Mexico, that more
than 100000 Japanese are quartered
throughout Mexico and that 10000 of
them are in and about Mexico City
in position to be concentrated within
three days for any enterprise which
may seem desirable to the Japanese
ministry at Mexico & capital There
are 5000 Japanese in Mexico City pro
per, 5000 more in the outlying sub
urbs of the Federal district and 10000
in towns, cotton mills aud haciendas Of
easy access to the capital by rail, with
10000 in the interior and in towns
along the Pacific Coast.
The information is that all are en-
gagged in mental employments and that,
when dressed as the usual Mexican
peon, they are not at once distin
guished from the natives with whom
| they mingle. The section through
which the easily available 10000 are
scattered, carries a normal population
of 100000, largely poems. Accepted
by the Mexieans as of a friendly ma.
tionalty, these subjects of the Mikado
enter into Mexican life with all its
present dangers without exciting com
ment or giving hint Of Interior design,
Some have even been seized by Huerta
press gangs and forced to do service in
the Federal army.
Official records covering this insidi-
Gus move on the part of Japan have
been gathered by the secret service
and by the consular agencies and have
been accumulated in the volumnous
files of the state department, to be
examined at convenient opportunity
Sharp impetus was given to the de
sire for information when it became
known that an offer Of the services
of 1000 Japanese had been made to
Madero on the 18th of last February
the proposed undertaking being to cap
turc the arsenal in Mexico City, then
the headquarters of the Felix Diaz re
volt which broke out February 8.

GRIM TRAGEDY
Board Of Health Anti Tubercu-
losis Campaign Report for Year
Shows Where Nearly One Hun
dred Died When Help and Per-
haps Life Could Have Been Had
for the Asking.

A total of two hundred and sixty-one
eases of tuberculosis came under the at
tention of the Territorial Board of
Health and the nti-Tubercuosis
League in Honolulu during the twelve
months ending July l of this year, ae
eording to detailed report just issued
under the direction of President Pratt
of the board of health.
Notwithstanding the campaign of ed
ucation which the board and the league
have been carrying on and the aid they
have been receiving from the physic
ians, the report shows that of the grand
total Of cases detected in the past year,
ninety-eight unfortunates went to their
death, victims of the dread White
Plague with no chance to receive treat
ment for the malady which carried
them to their doom. In other words,
ninety-eight eases were not detected UNI
til physicians performing autopses dis
covered the real cause of their taking
eif
Many Might Be Saved.
Had knowledge of these cases
reached the health authorities suitable
treatment would have been provided
and in view of the remarkable percent
age of cures which have been effected
by DIR. A. n. Sinclair as superintendent
of the anti.tuberculosis bureau of the
board of health it is safe to say that
many of these unfortunates would be
alive today and possibly well on the
road to recovery.
Though the health authorities do ev-
erythinu ia their power TO locate suf.
ferers from tuberculosis and aid them
in recovering. they have met with
obstacles Fortunately bovever their
educational work is bearing results for
it is less difficult now to 20 among the
sufferers and have them take sanitary
precautions which mean so much for
their own recovery as well as the pro.
lection of their fellow beings.

"Our first observation. on December

We were FIVE miles from the pole. We
hurried forward, Skiing along under
q blazing sun-that's the word. blaz-
ing-made us hot. We took on our.
sweaters and silk coats and threw
them on the sleds. still It was warm
work, even in our undershirts When
we thought we had covered i've miles
we took another observation. We
were at SO degrees SO minutes That
left the pole mile away. We trav-.
ersed that mile and erected q tent and
placed Norwegian flag on top Of 1t
above what we believed was the pole
itself. n a 55-
we remained AT the pole three
days and set UP flags in all directions.
Then we went forty-nve miles beyond
the pole. The land or the ice and
snow, that covered it to an unknown
depth. still sloped downward. It
seemed az II we were still going
south. But We were not. We were
going north In taking two steps at
the pole We went both south and
north. and 1T may say that at that
point where all meridians converge
one stride would take III from the
longitude Of New York to that OF
San Francisco.
There was no excitement when we
found ourselves at the pole, Captain
Amundsen added. No one danced or
hurrahed. knew we would get there
We all knew 1t. We had never doubt
ed It, 1t seemed a perfectly natural
thing, to be there, We felt at home. II
we hadn't got there. there might have
been occasion for some excitement"

CHlLD's FACE ALL RED SPOTS

632 N. 9Th St., Terre Haute, Ind.
"My little nephew, boy OF four
years, had a. breaking out on his face.
It was little red spots at first, then
he would rub and scratch and water
blisters would form, and wherever the
water would run another would come
until his face was covered with them.
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but it did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say It hurt. We hardly knew him,
his little face was all red spots and
blisters. So I. begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them.
The next morning I made strong
soap suds with Cuticura Soap and
washed his face in the warm suds.
The little blisters burst by pressing
the cloth on them. After had his
face washed, put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on and in a short time his little
face was all red and dry. I kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
Cuticura Ointment and his face got as
well and it did not leave a scar. He
was entirely cured in about one week
