have SO far been unusually light. The
market appears oversold.

Propose to Revert
 To Mayora1 Plan
 Tn City of Denver.

Denver. Col, April, 25--ProposaIs to revert to the Mayoral form of gov ernment in Denver after two years trial of a Commission form of government will be passed upon by the voters at a special municipal election on May g.. The election was evoked through the circulation of three petitions. each seeking to replace the Commission form and to supplant it with a May oral system.
 The first steps to affect the change were taken. by the Charter League, whose petitoin calls for the creation of the office of a Mayor with broad executive powers, whose duties to the city are those of a business manager, ' The League says that under it's scheme a saving of half million dollars an nually would be effected in the ope- ration of the city government. The League names no candidate.
 Two other petitions have since been circulated, one proposing a return to office of former Mayor Robert w. Speer, and the other seeking the cleo ton of w. W. Booth. Under the present city charter all municipal cleo tions are non-p partisan, but MT Speer is generally understood to be the chocie of the Democratic organization and MT. Booth to have the support of the Republicans.
 At the special e1ection in February 1914 when the Commission form of government was adopted, the measure carried by a majority of 7849.

MUST INITIATE
 AMERICAN CARS
 WHEN WAR ENDS
French Admit United States Constructors Ideas Must
 Be Followed.

Paris, April 25.-fsThe necessary rev. olution in the construction of automo- piles in France after the war; says 8 competent authority the motor car business will involve an irnita- tation of the American moderate priced car By, the time hostilities have ceased all the/requisitiohed cars" he says, will be ready for either the scrap heap or the bargain counter. All those who motored before the war anCN the thousands of, soldiers and officers who have learnedFto drive since. must buy anew if they want serviceable cars. Their purses will be lighter and their living expenses heavier, so they will naturally want to go light on 1uxuries. The popular car will sell at from 5000 to 5000 francs.
 s'The American constructors have studied the cost of turning out a car more closely than the French, who have aimed first rather to perfection and only secondari1y at lowest con sistent cost. The Americans, how ever, seem to have arrived at low costs in many points without affecting the running qualities of their cars or their wearing properties. For instance, wheel hubs of French machines are made Of bronze, cast, countersunk and turned; they weight from two to four pounds, and cost from four to seven francs. The same hub on an Amer ican machine is made of brass and is stamped, weighs about a third of a pound and costs one franc twenty five centimes; it is quite as serviceable as the French hub.
 That is only one of the, details in which the Americans have worked out the low cost of a good car. The French constructor can, and will be obliged, to do the same. Moreover he has learned a lot in machine work I@1 had to do during the war to readapt his works to the requirements of the national defense Many interesting dis coveries have been made in ways and means of decreasing manufacturing costs and increasing output of ma chimes. Besides, the French manu- fcaturer will always have a e.eonsid- erable margin in his favor in com .peting for home trade in the thirty three per cent. or whereabouts of the selling price absorbed in the case of American ears in transportation and duty.''

TRENCH LIKE sFR1Go."

Paris, April 25.-"F'rigo," as the French call American cold storage beef, has taken so well in France
 that it's popularity has. for the time being at least, defeated the purpose Of its importation-that is to say, the easing of retail prices of meat. The Mayors of several suburban towns having expressed the wish to follow the example of their Parfsian col leagues and organize retail stores for the sale of refrigerator meat, were informed that they must go slow, as the imported article is rare. Many butchers who resisted it's introduction at first are now selling it at the same price as fresh meat; in some cases it has brought even more. The author ities are taking the matter up and pro pose to fix maximum retail prices.

Tax on Automobiles Discourages Motor
 Lovers of Britain

London, April 25.-The cost in tax es of keeping a motor-car has been much higher in England than in Amer ica for some years, but under the new war budget Of the Chancellor of the sExchequer, is increased to a level which will discourage a1l but the very rich and particularly discourage the building of high power machines.
 The old motor taxes ranged from ten dollars on car of six and a half horse power, up to about $200 on a. sixty horse power machine. Now this tax has been doubled on the small CT cars of 16 horse power and less, while it is trebIed on those of higher power, so that a sixty horse power car must pay about $500.
 Still there is enough wealth in Eng land, new war gains, and old accumu- 1ations, so that no radical reduction in the number of cars in use is eq- pected immediately

NEW STYLES FOR
 MEN RAPED BY
 FRENCH JOURNAL
Romantic Style of 1880 To Be Revived By Master
 Tailors of Paris.

Paris, April 25.-The Parisian press has characterized as undesirable" new styles in mems clothing that have recently appeared, and which, with the sanction of the Master Tailors' Asso- citation of Paris. threatened to become common.
 "The new garment is imposed by the new epoch about to open" say the master taiIors. s'Something easy
 nd graceful, and yet sober and elegant as are all things French, but bearing the stamp of the epoch of viri1ity that is coming To fill that need the tailors have revived the old frock coat of 1880. tight at the waist with full p1aited skirts and wide long la pelS with conspicuous points; overcoats to be of the same lines. In this gar ment as prescribed by Partisan tail ors, a man appears to be wearing a corset and from a distance might be confounded with "a ballet dancer, yet the tailors say that5it was only after mature reflection and conclusive trials that the ''commission of styles found this garment most likely to harmonize With the new epoch. They explain ed that the costume must be comp1et- ed by harmonious accessories, one of and we'll arched on the side, still fur ther recalling the romantic style of the days of Alfred de MusSet.
 There is considerable resistance to this new movement on the part of those who contend that when the sol diers come back they should not find the civilians they left at home covered with ridicule.
 The master taiIors stand their ground, however, and declare that the day is past for the stiff English styles. The women are said to be pleased, the men most timid or distrustful. Crit ics of the, style have delivered a severe blow by giving prominence to the fact that the romantic style of 1880 can be worn with grace only by slight fig ures with slahting shoulders, long necks, straight carriage and we'll shap- fcd legs, for with the frock of 1850 yet strapped under the feet. The hair the trousers must be very tight but not must be worn long and partedSon the side, giving a further resemblance of Alfred de Musset. Full boards will come into fashion with this style, it is said, and will be either trimmed to a point, cut square, or frizzed and spread ad adyantageously over the expansive shirt front which the new style pro- vides. Where the beard is not so long as to hide it, the cravat will be worn in the shape of a butterfly knot, and will be made of. satin. The accessor- ies provided for this new style extend even into an ivory-headed cane.

 Then, too, it must be rernembered that the company offering Chaplin films will find greater market for is costly competition at the present time By coupling it's s'feature'' films with Chaplin's comedies the company will leave theatre managers no alter 1ative-if they want Chaplin films.
 In other words, Chaplin films will sell everything else the moving picture company has to sell. And that is the real reason why Chaplin can demand and get $67O, 1000 for 9 single year.
 $5,OOO A Year Enough.
 How much of this $67o.ooo will Charlie Chaplin save during the com ing twelve-month
 In all probability $S65, GOO. For he confessed to theswriter that his per- sonal expenditures last year were con siderably less than $5,o0o, and there are no indications that his new con tract has turned his head. If any thing it has caused him to be even more economical
 Chaplin's theory of life may not be plain living and high thinking-he is more interested in prize fights than are or lfterature-but the fact re- cept when somebody else foots the bill
 Instead of hiring secretary he has his brother Sidney-who is four years older than hirnself-loo after his so- cia1 and business engagements.
 He doesn't need valet, for the reason that he has less than half a. dozen suits of clothes. Unless he is especially requested to wear even ing dress he appears at the theatre or even at formal functions in a tweed suit.
 While the Sun Shines.
 Perhaps he will marry you venture Perhaps. But here is what Chap lin told me when asked him about that possibility:
 When wanted to marry I didn't have the money Now that I have the money don't care to marry.
 Besides. there's plenty of time for that sort of thing when I quit work. that my services may not be worth
 No one realizes better than I do $100 a week five years from now I'm simply making hay strenuous1y while while the sun shines.s'
 IA very sensible unassunning little fellow is Charlie Chaplin, despite the fact that his present income is s130 a minute.
 And he never wastes his tinne
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-04-25

The rest is history. And the best answer to his critics is that Chaplin will receive $67o, ,00O for his clown Ing during the next twelve months Already he has pocketed $15O, 900 of It. for he demanded that amount down upon signing his contract; and his weekly salary will be $1OsOo0 for ex- actly hfty-two weeks.
 Impossible, you say?
 We'll there are 10000 moving pie ture houses in America If only one fourth of thef1l5. .0oO-take Chaplin flnls at s10 week. there's $50. 900 a. week return. So you see that s1o,00O R week salary is not so large. after
