DESDE PONCE

Con motive de una Ggera suposici6n
del primer jefe del Cuerpo de Bomberos
doctor Jose Vidal Vilaret, y segundo je-
| fe senior Francisco Cancio, cuyos dos
nombramientos hace pocos dias que fue-
ron hechos, estos dos senores presenta-
ron aver la renuncia de sus cargos al
alcalde senior Rafael Rivera Esbri. Es-
tos dos senores fundan sus renuncias en-
la suposici6n que ell alcalde pueda de-
jar cesante al senior Alfredo Escamaro-
nj, recalcitrante republican, que es ce-
lador del Cuerpo y obtiene un sueldo
'mensual como empleado municipal de
veinte dollars. Ell Alcalde no ha deja-
do cesante a este senor, pues por virtud
de la ley quedan cesantes todos los en-
pleadOs municipales al tomar possession
la nueva administration. Ahora claro
esta que este no sucede en- ninguna mu-
|nicipalidad de la Isla de que un alcalde
IrepublicanO al tOmar possession de la ad-
|ministracion deje confrmado en- su
puesto a ning1n empleado unionista
que encuentre en- la administration, nj
ning1n alcalde unionista puede dejar
Ining1n empleado republican, al tomar
possession. Porque estos son cargos poll,
ticOs que son cubiertos pOr ell partido

que sc comenta desfavorablemente es ell
que dos unionistas traten de imponer un

JUDGE HAS VIVID DREAM
Putnam County Jurist Experience
Farm Sentence.

GREENCASTLE, Ind, June 1. -
Judge James p. Hughes OF the Put
nam circuit court, probably now
knows how the men he has sentenced
TO the state prison for escaping from
the Indiana state penal farm feel
when they stand before him. Judge
Hughes few nights ago, had a
dream in which he saws himself and
W. NJ. Sutherlin, prosecutor of Put
nam county, standing before judge
TO receive sentence for escaping from
the penal farm. Judge Hughes said
he saw himself sentenced to the farm
and that he and Mr. Sutherlin es-
capped. but we're caught. The day
before he had the dream Judge
Hughes sent two men 10 prison for
escaping from the farm, and as Pros.
Sutherlin files all the charges against
the men, Judge Hughes saws himself
and his working partner in the posi-
ton of the prisoners. The judge was
unable TO express his feelings while
being sentenced, but he said ne gave
a sigh of relief when he awakened to
find that the experience was only a
dream.

COOK HAS MORE
THAN MADE GOOD
Secretary of State Has Saved
$1,000 in a Year With No
Reduction in Departments
Efficiency.

INDIANAPOLIS, June l. When
Homer T. cook was making his cam
paign for the office of secretary OF
state. and while some OF the oppOsi-
ton were saying that II elected Cook
will pad the payTolls paying political
debts" he was content with saying 70
his friends that after election he was
going 10 save more than his salary in
the Office expense and not reduce the
efficiency.
lie has just filed a report with the
governor which shows already a saw
ing Of 5000 a year and this with no
reduction Of efficiency This is saw
ing $500 in excess of his salary and
the year is still young and there may
be more supplies 10 buy and contracts
to renew and reduce.
This saving of $4,000 has been made
by simply applying the same rules to
the peoples business he might use
in his own. OF the total amount 50
500 was saved in reconstructing the
pay roll. This included the refusal

and employment of an assistant dep
uty secretary of state for special leg
IslatiVe work. The other S4.SOO has
been saved i'm buying office supplies
and renewal of contracts.
other secretaries, for instance, have
always sent out the automobile Ger
thcates in envelopes and under two
cent postage. This year the address
was written on the back of the Ger
tincate and IL went for one cent. This
saved not only the stamp but the en-
Veiope and the cost OF the time spent
in enclosing. The envelopes and post
age saved was $1.10O. There were
10000 of these To mail. and efficiency
CO lntS in many such items
In awarding the contract for auto
mobile and motorcycle 1916 number
tags the first bids submitted were all
thrown out excessive, although the
price was the same as has always pre-
vailed. Cook let it be known he
would not award the contract unless
the price was materially reduced. New
bids came hack reducing the first
figures by $500. This is saving
not only for one year but for the
future as well. Keeping up the same
pace. Cook Will probably save several
times his salary before the year ends.

few minutes later he shot him
self through his head and died.
Throughout the evening Smelling had

cause she received the attentions of
other men. Several times he stepped
up TO her and drew his revolver.
Each time friends pacified him. At
the close Of the meeting Smelling call
ed his sweetheart aside. Without a
word he put the gun to her head

There was some claim at the time
that Mrs. Wells and not Evans killed

plausible and that is revenge by some

TELLS OF EARLY DAYS
AT STATE UNIVERSITY
Two Old Volumes Added to School
Library Disclose Conditions
Prevailing i'm 1874.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. June IA
library board of Indiana university
has just bought two old volumes
found in a secondhand book store in
New York, which contain the letters
Of James d. Test "A student in In
diana university in 1914. The two
volumes, which cost $3.50. are of a
curious appearance, due to their age
and the variety of colOrs in the paper
used.
Many Of the letters contained in the
two volumes were written in Bloom
ington, and they give some interest
ing facts concerning the cost of living
i'm the early days at the state univer-
sity. In a letter written June l, 1874,
Test says: 81 am in partnership with
another student. and he appears to
be a very fine fellow, and have been
trying to make a bargain for my
board There is only 121a cents diff
ference between us. He wants 81 and
offer him S71a cents, and L think
he will take it."
Although few students have been
heard to complain of the present
rates for board at eating houses at
the present time, the price for board
at Indiana has a little more than
tripled in the last 1 years since that
time.
In the first letter written home
after reaching school, Test mentions
the fact that he has to pay S1,25 a
month for his room, while now rooms
vary in price from 81 TO 81 a week
for two students.
The first volume is a collection of
letters written by Charles ID. Test
principally to his sweetheart. The
first volume also contains an auto
biography of his life from 1924 to
1899. The second volume contains
letters of introduction and documents
of a political nature. Test was ap-
pointed on several committees, boards
and legislative reform bodies
