COMLEY INSTRUCTS
 TAX BOARD AGAINST TRANSFER OF FUNDS
Commissioners Will Meet We'd nesday to Seek Solution of
 Taxation TangIe.

Acting on the advice of City At torney William H. Corn1ey, Jr., the board of apportionment last night de- nied all requests of departments for the transfer of funds from one ap- propr1ation to another. It was de- cided that the dfcerent city depart ments might return to the city treas urer what money was left over in the various departments and that the common council could be asked to make appropriations to meet deficits or for whatever purpose more funds were required. This can be done, it is said,~ without laying an additio onal tax by two-thirds vote of the common council.
 The board also voted to meet again next Wednesday and arrange for the adjustment of taxes paid into the city treasury under the general assessm ent of 1s.2 mills on property in every part of the city. About 1900 property owners who were formerly assessed in the First district-on1y have paid paid about $70,OOo in excess of what they would have been liable for on under the old First and Second dis trict arrangement. The board will determine next week what will be the First district rate and how much of the money is to be returned.
 Last night the health board asked for transfer of $550 from one account to another. Director of Public Works Jacob A. Courtade asked that $12,- 14e.72 surplus for permanent pave ment be diverted to rnacadan repairs and street cleaning. Both were re- ferred to the Common Council.
 The board of charities asked for the transfer of about $2,0OO from various small accounts to care for the outside poor and also for $1O,611.25 extra ap- propriation for care of outside poor, care of children. house rent and inn provements at Lakeview home.
 Commissioner William IT. Hincks suggested that the SIP, ,149.72 left in the public works department be given to the charities board. The other members of the board would not agree to this and it was finally decided to recommend to the common council that the charities board be given $6,- 900 of the money left over in the fire escape account of the board of educa- ton and $5, 900 from the building fund of the same board.
 The board of assessors wanted to transfer S20o from their printing ac- count to extra clerk hire and also $100 more for a, stenographer. They too were told to take their troubles to the common council.

Not so very long ago there was q
dinner given in exclusive Washington
society at which the most tactful per.
son was undoubtedly a plumber in
overals
1t was an elaborate dinner The
central feature of the table decora.
tons was playing fountain, but just
before the dinner was to be served the
fountain refused TO play.
A plumber was hastily called. He
crawled under the table and soon had
the fountain sending a delicate spray
into the air. He was busy tightening
the couplings of the temporary pipes
under the table when the head butler,
his mind relieved OF a load of care
when he saw the fountain playing, an
nounced III the drawing room:
Dinner is served"
Before the plumber knew what was
happening the guests had entered the
dining room. chairs were drawn up,
and he suddenly found himself hem.

carefully around Neither TO the right
nor TO the left nor between any pair
of feet was there sufficient space for
him to wiggle through. The only way
TO get out would be to tap on some
knee and-"pardon me, please"
He didn't Know much about the Ell

had a bunch that that wouldn't make a
hit. He decided that there was just one

the trousers and skirt wall departed
So there he sat while course after

When the dinner was at last over

Farmers Buying Automobiles.

Estimates of the automobile bus
mess in Wisconsin lead to the con-
clusion that of the 1886 cars
owned in this state, IS per cent are
owned by farmers, Twice as many
cars are bought by farmers at this
season of the year as by any other
four classes of people. The reason
in part is seen in the excellent crop
prospects in June and July. The
total value of all cars in the state
is placed in round numbers at 500, =
900, 900. There is one automobile
for nearly every square mile, or one
for every forty-fve persons. This
means that one out of every nine
families has an automobile. Auto
mobile licenses are being issued at
the rate of 100 per day. The licence
fee is S., amounting to about $3.50
900 for the year. Seventy-fve per
cent of the revenue is returned to
the counties for highway improve
ment, and after expenses of ad-
ministration are deducted the re-
mainder is turned into special
fund for highway purposes Wis
