Atlantic City, " j., Jan. 23.-Atlantlc
City's willingness TO disregard expense
where the comfort of its visitors IS
involved is strikingly exemplited in
the LAYING out Of a strip OF the wld-
ened uptown Boardwalk for the eXclu-
sive use Of rolling chairs. The e1-
pense entsiled is quite considerable
factor, but in this case, as In many
others, the city did not hesitate.
Specially selected lumber was pro-
cured and laid upon beams put down
lengthpise instead of crosswlse, as Gus

will run upon a perfectly smooth sur
face. II chair patrons are pleased the
resort will consider itself well repaid
for the additional expense, and this
notwithstanding the fact that the CHAIR

against paying the tax levied upon
them By the city authorities.

ANOTHER ANIMAL
INSTINCT STORY
HAMILTON BROWN TELLS ONE
OF REMARKABLE INTELLl-
GENcE OF HIS PUPPY,

Speaking of animal intelligence,
Hamilton Brown submits the follow
ing story:
"The other morning when it was so
cold that the ice had frozen over the
pond at my house, wanted to break
it so that stock could get water to
drink. However, the ice was so thick
that several little perch were frozen
in it. | knew that ii the chunks of ice
with the fish in them sunk to the bot
tom, the dead fish would eventually
cause an awful stencil and perhaps
some unhealthiness. So l thought
that | would go back to the house and
get a pole and some grab hooks to
pick out these pieces of ice with dead
fish in them.
Nov, have a little dog, which is
just a puppy. The little rascal saw
me get down my old fishing pole.
What do you reckon he did? He ran
out the door and down by the side of
the pond, where he was digging bait
for me when l got back.
And he is just puppy, too

Porter Erwin had hardly returned
from repairing the fire truck Of the
LaFrance Fire Engine Co. at Clarks-
vile when he received a wire from
the company to go to Knoxville to
make some repairs upon one of their
trucks there.
This is again recognition of Mr.. Err
wins ability as mechanician. He
recently made the repairs on the truck
of the Columbia fire. department so
satisfactorily that when the special
agent Of the company arrived here he
stated that he could do no more him
self. He was wired soon after to go
to Clarksville to do some work upon
the engine there, and now he has re-
ceived a call to go to Knoxville.

VICTORY IN FINANCIAL ENDUR.
ANcE MORE LIKELY THAN
ONE OF ARMS,

No Official Mediation Seems Possible
So Long az an Alien Army oceV.
pies ReIgium--Last Billion Of Dol
lars viii Count in Victory.

PALO ALTO, Cal, Jan. 4.-Dr. Da-
vid Starr Jordan, president of Stan
ford University, in speaking of peace
in Europe said:
THE prospects for early peace in
Europe are not encouraging. The
problem has been rendered extremely
complex by the drawing in Of state
not related in the original issue.
"A victory in financial endurance is
more likely than victory at arms. In
this it is the last billion dollars that
counts. Europe is now wasting her
substance at the rate of three billion
dollars per month, on top Of the war
debts of about thirty billion dollars
with which the war begun.
"The war may close out of sheer
horror and pain. Bereavement Is
coming to every home and the war
exaltation of today will give place to
a great wall of pain. Those that see
red now will see blue little later.
There is not only the waste Of the
best manhood but the certainty that
future generations will have as faith
ers largely the weaklings the war can
not use.
Sooner or later the people of Eu-
rope will see that their leaders are
neither infallible nor invincible. Then
will rise the human anguish and this
may end the war.
"As Americans we can work to bind
up wounds, to feed the starving, to ex-
tinguish hatred.
"No official mediation seems possi-
BILE so long as an alien army occupies
Belgium, for neither side will listen
to any outside advice while this,
which has become the main issue OF
the war, is still undecided"

FEWER MULES WERE
HERE TODAY THAN N
MANY FIRST MONDAYS

CITY.

Top War Mules Brought About $14o,

Went AS High AS $2oo-Good Many
Horses Were Also Offered.
(Monday's Daily.)

Today's was the lightest first Mon
day mule dag that Columbia has seen
in many a year. In the number OF
mules that were here for sale it was
far smaller than it has been in quar-.
ter of century.
1t was estimated by a prominent
mule man that there were not more
than two hundred mules in the city
during the day. They were OF very
good quality and good many of them
Changed hands. While there we're not
nearly SO many buyers IRON other
points as there have been in the past,
yet those who were here were rather
active all day long.
The mules were of two classes, war
mules and sugar mules. The former
brought $140 for the extra good ones,
five to ten years old, fifteen hands or
better in height. They were taken by
the Columbia Mule Co., of which
Frank Dale is the manager, to 80 to
the European war. -
The sugar mules sold as high as
5000. Only the very tops brought
these figures, wAfch were regarded as
very liberal in view Of the depression
In the mule market, due to the cot
ton conditions in the South.
Taken as whole, the mule market
was off from $50 to SIS per head from
what it was year ago today. They
were at the farmers prices then To
day the buyers set the prices and
bought or not as they wanted to. The
market was absolutely in their hands.
There were practically no young
mules here. There was a lamentable
dearth of them, although there were
some farmers here who wanted to buy
them to carry for year or two in the
hope of higher prices in 1915 and
1917. All the mules that were shown
were aged mules, or rather, three
years and up.
In addition to the mules there was
fair sprinkling of horses about the
square. There were several farmers
who had more on hand than they car
ed to carry through the winter, and
so. brought them in to dispose Of.
They were considerably off in price
also, for there were few who wanted
to. take on more stock to carry
through the winter season with feed
as high as 1t is.

GOVERNOR WHITMAN
WOULD TAKE POLICE
CONTROL FROM MAYOR
MITCHELL, OF NEW YORK CITY,
WILL OPPOSE MEASURE
BITTERLY.
Two MEASURES ARE SUBMITTED
One Would Place Power of Police
Commissioner In Hands Of Board of
Estimate, Other Create State De-
partment of Police. :.

NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-William B.
Ellison, attorney for the various or
ganizations of New York City police
men, announced yesterday that two
sweeping police reform measures,
either of which will take the direction
Of the police department of the city
out of the hands of the mayor, have
been drafted under the direction OF
Charles S. Whitman, the incoming
governor. They win be introduced
with number of other administration
measures soon after the legislature
convenes. Both bills have been sub.
mitted to Mr.. Ellison.
One takes the appointment of the
police commissioner from the mayor
and gives it to the board of estimate.
, The other provides for the creation
of state constabulary, which will in
corporate the police forces of all COM
munities of the state into one central
state police department directed by a
commissioner to be appointed by the
governor.
Both measures will be submitted for
the purpose of drawing public express
sion, and the sentiment developed at
the legislative hearings will decide
which Of the two is to be pushed as
the administration measure.
Both measures will be bitterly op-
posed by Mayor Mitchell and Police
Commissioner Woods. They will,
however, have the endorsement Of the
policemen Of this city.
Mayor Mitchell learned of these
measures first at a conference with
Governor Whitman Wednesday morn
ing. At that time he was informed
that the policemen's organization fa-
vored the passage of the bills.
! A complete backdown of the police
commissioner in his attitude toward
the police organizations followed al
most instantaneously Within few
hours after the conference between
the incoming governor and the mayor
Commissioner Woods sent for the Off
GERS of all the police organizations.
j During the nine months Woods has
been police commissioner he has per-
sistently refused to recognize the ex.
istence of the police organizations or
to deal with their officers. But Wed
nesday he completely reversed his at
titude, and when the. men had assem-
bled in his private Office at his invita-
tion he told them he wanted better
understanding between the commits
sioner and the men as represented by
these organizations.
