certain whether or not the eXpendi- ture for this equipment would be justified at this time. The truck and it's equipment will cost about $1,500. and the members of the council all stated that they were in favor of purchasing it if the city's finances will permit.
 Upon the recommendation of Chairman w. J. Drummer and Supt. E. V. Leverett, the light, water and purchase steam boiler and engine of sufficient capacity to operate the pumps at the city water pumping station at Gleason. The pumps are operated by electricity carried on wires a distance of six miles from the electric plant, and 1t was point ed out that any accident to this line or to the electrical apparatus might force the city to be without water for an indefinite period. The com mittee plans to install a steam pow CT outfit at the pumping station, which will make the waterworks plant independent of the electric plant and enable the water supply to be maintained even if the elec- tric plant should be disabled and shut down. It is intended, of course to operate the steam plant only in case of such an emergency and for regular operation electric power will be used as at present.
 The light, water and sewer com mittee made it's monthly report, which was referred to the finance committee.
 A petition from adjacent property owners for the city to pay 20 per cent of the cost of paving an alley through portion of block 12,, Rob inson's plan, was denied.
 A petition from several local dray- men, asking a license be imposed upon the business of draying in Conway, was presented and refer red to the judiciary committee.
 A petition was granted to remove a gasoline filling station two doors south of it's present location on North Front street.
 Accounts amounting to $149 were presented and allowed.

RECORDS BROKEN AT TWO COLLEGES HENDRIX AND CENTRAL Begin Annual Sessions With Great est EnrOllments in History
 Opening Exercises.

Annual sessions at both Hendrix College and Central College were auspiciously begun this morning, the first days enrolment at both insti- tutions exceeding all previous rec ords. At Hendrix, Bushes Manager w. B. Hubbell said that afternoon that matriculation had not been com pleted, but he was sure that at least 25 more students than ever before would be enrolled at the opening. At Central the authorities are fac ing problem in furnishing accom- modations for the boarding students. Several members of the faculty who had expected to room in the college building have removed to private homes and given up their rooms to students, new rooms have been fit ted up and a number of boarding girls have arranged for private board in nearby homes of faculty members. There are still 21 paid reservations for rooms by young ladies who have not yet arrived, but Dr. Conger says that arrangements will be made for comfortable quar- ters for all of them.
 The opening exercises at Hendrix College this morning were simple. Rev. Frank Jernigan read scrip tural selection and Dr. F. s. H. Johnston led in prayer, following which President J. H. Reynolds de- livered an instructive and inspiring address on the subject of "Laziness. Laziness, he said, is one of the south's besetting sins, and he urged the students not to yield to the temptations to slight their work, but to summon their energies and abilities to meet the demands that would be made upon them.
 The Central exercises were opened when the students filed into the audi torlum singing, Holy, Holy, Holy" as professional The faculty of Is teachers, President J. w. Conger, sev- eral members of the board of trus- tees and visitors occupied seats upon the stage. After the Central hymn and an invocation by Rev. L. M. Sipes, Dr. Conger made the announcements for the session, afterwards introducing the new members of the faculty. In her strong mezzo-soprano voice of un- usual range and power, Miss Hazel Etling, teacher of voice, rendered delightful solo. Miss Ona Catherine Martin, assistant teacher of piano, gave a very effective solo, and Prof. James William Taylor, the new direc- tor of the conservatory, rendered two splendid piano numbers, all of which were enthusiastically received. Short talks were made by Rev l.. M. Sipes, Mayor J. c. Dawson, Rev. J. w. Boy CT, Prof. Doak Campbell of the de- partment of science and Prof. B. P. Clayton of the department of mathe- matics.

one shut-out game during the sea- son, Needs Creek goose-egging Ken dall, to 0, on July 26. None of the teams had dependable pitchers.
 That the league will be continued next year is the statement of Presi- dent Williams. Much interest was manifested throughout the entire circuit, large crowds attending every game. The cheering was of high order, and the home team rarely had it on the visitors in this particular, as the visitors usually brought as many rooters to see the game as the home team could muster.
 The following all-star team has been selected after careful scrutiny of the records of each player: Pitchers, Sammy Waddell of Center vile and Frank Tanner of Green brier; catchers, Bob Matthews 6f Greenbrier and Ernest Castleberry of Republican; first base, Ardie Simms of Kendall; second base, Luther Cato of Needs Creek; third base, Alb Wofford of Kendall and Tom Wofford of Greenbrier; short stop, Melvin Blessing of Needs Creek and Odus Brannon of Green brier; left field, Carl Henderson of Greenbrier; centerfeld, Montgomery of Guy; right field, Will Cato of Needs Creek; utility, Lester Merritt of Greenbrier and Teen Browning of Kendall

According to the official figures compiled today by Dr. E. T. Will Hams of Greenbrier, president of the Faulkner County Baseball Lea que, the table above shows the final standing of the six teams which comprise the league, the season having closed a week ago.

 The Greenbrier team was made up of youngsters, several of whom were only F years old. Aside from the winners 14 straight victories, Guys spurt the final half of the season was the feature, that team having won six and tied one in the last seven played. There was only

that the bond buyer is an investor and

speculation for the records prove to
the contrary

tons of the highest class. Leading
bankers and financial institutions are
daily dealing In bonds equally high

The great life insurance companies
and savings banks and trustees of es-
tgtes are all heavy purchasers Of Sc
Curities Of this character, for they are
not permitted to engage IN specula-

safest type.
The enormous transactions in these
securities have given to bankers and

tahlished business and large eli

dealers in such securities to soil no

curities are recommended to the in

A WORD TO THE THOUGHTFUL

At this writing. while the vote il
being taken the Journal doesn'
know which party or what candi
dates will win IN either the state OF

finite opinions on the subject but
those opinions may all be wrong,
There ia one thing. however, tho
Journal wishes to say to the voters
Of both parties in Now Mexico
More care must be had IN the future,
when conventions are held, as to tho
regulations and the qualifications Of
candidates for public office, and the
people Of the state should frown upon
the kind Of mud-slinging that has
characterized this campaign, This
criticism applies 20 both parties and
10 the republicans only a little more
than TO the democrats. There was
mud 10 sling on both sides. and botn
sides went to the bottom of the filthy
mass for their munitions Of war.
Tho time has come for new lead
ershlp in both parties. The voters
OF New Mexico are entitled to new
deals ana to have the cards cut again
before tho next game is played. The
oIscard should be a big one.
