Most Of the Estimates Will Be
Cut, II Is Thought,
Citizens May Advise With City
Dads as TO Economy,

All members of the city commission
were busy today putting finishing
touches on the budgets for their respec-
tive departments. The budgets will be
cfiled with Commissioner Mike Donnelly
Sbis afternoon.
May Be Cut.
II Is not believed that the commission
ers in preparing their budgets have held
themselves down to such an extent that
there will be no cuts made IN the pro
posed budgets before they are adopted
Last year the department OF public at
fairs asked for $8S,622 The department
received $4,000. The department OF
public works asked for $l2SDo and re-
ceiyed $lls,24O. The department OF pub
lie property asked for SOL 200 and re-
ceived $2Jl,725. The department OF pub
lie safety asked for $2l3425 and re.
ceivcd $lS,44J. The department OF
accounts and finance asked for $O,4oO
and received $24,NS.
Citisens May Help.
There is much interest in the pro-
posed budgets and It is probable that be-
fore being finally adopted, committee
Of business men will 90 over the budgets
with the commissioners in an ct
fort to reduce the operating expenses OF
the city's government, and at the same
time not lower the standard OF etil-
cheney
Commissioner Donnelly gave hi.
hearty approval to the suggestion that
such a committee confer with the city
commissioners before the budgets are
adopted. Mr.. ponnelly declared that he
believed the business men could offer
many suggestions which would result
in some needless expense being elmi-
mated. ..
Il am heartily in favor OF the sug-
gestion that business men OF the city
confer with the commissioners and 20
over the proposed budgets for the sew
eral different departments, said Don
nelly.
mo one is more interested in the city
government than the successful busi-
ness man, and in my opinion they could
offer many suggestions which would re-
suit in the expenses being Cut without
effecting the efficiency OF any depart
,ment.
u think all municipalities should re-
trench as far as possible, because every
one is being urged to purchase Liberty
bonds and to assist the Red Cross and
called on for many other additional ex-
penses because Of the war"

NEW" WEAPONS REALLY OLD
Asphyxiatng Bomb and lncendiary
Shell outgrowth OF Missiles Emu
ployed Long Ago by Chinese.

Many of the new" weapons pro-
duced by the world war are really very
old. Thus the asphyxiating bomb is
an outgrowth of a missile employed
long ago by the Chinese. Instead of
deadly chemicals, it contained some
substance that emitted a nauseous
odor, accompanied by sitting smoke.
Later this device appeared in Europe
and was known by the inelegant but
expressive name of "stink-pot."
Another Chinese war method paved
the way for incendiary shells. They
invented a rocket, later adopted and
widely used by the Saracens, which
fired a kind of ball having claws or
hooks that would catch hold to the
side of building and set FIRE to it.
These balls were made of petroleum
and inter, which became famous in
the later ages as Greek fire.
The German device of throwing Pc
troll upon an enemy by means of a
pump was used long ago, when an at
tacking ship often spouted flames at
the object Of it's assault. This plan
was reserved for close quarters, and
resulted in the destruction
of the vessel so attacked.

over, paralyzed momentarily by sur
prise and horror his eyes troubled; he
swayed as If his sight had blurred.
Il said I'd never marry you," she
rushed on, vibrantly. "This is the man
love-the only man. Yes, and I've
learned the truth about you. / know
who killed Mr.. Austin"
Longorio did very unexpected
thing then; slowly, unconsciously, as If
the movement were the result of a half
forgotten training he crossed himself.
But now from the hall at his back
came tho pounding of boot-heels, and a
half-dozen painting troopers tumbled
through the door, He waved them back
and out into the hall again.
Father O'Malley, who had been try.
ing to make himself heard, stepped in
front of the general and said, solemn
ly: Take care what you do, Longorio
] have married these people, and you
can't undo what I have done. We are
American citizens. The laws of civili-
cation protect u.s."
The Mexican fought for his voice,
then stammered: "You are my priest !;
l brought you here. offered to marry
her. Now-you force me to damn my
SOUL" Turning his eyes wildly upon
Alaire, he shouted: "Too late, Ell?
You say l am too late! 1t seems that I
am barely In time"

''Nor l." echoed Dave.

know what I'm doing. I've thought Of
way to save us ALL"
An incoherent refusal was upon his
lips, but Alaire's face besought him; ii
was shining with strange, new ecs-
tasy, and he could not bring himself to
deny her. OF what her plan consisted
he had only the dimmest idea, but he
assured himself that 1t could by no
possibility succeed. After all, what did
1t matter? he asked himself They were
trapped. This might serve somehow,
to cheat Longorio, and-Alaire would
be his wife.
"very WELL" he stammered, weakly.
What are you thinking Off"
Il haven't thought 1t all out yet,
but"
AT that moment Dolores returned,
bringing with her the three black
haired, black-shawled house servants,
bundling them through the door and
ranging them along the wall.
Father O'Malley's face was puck
cred; he said hesitatingly: "My dear
madam, this isn't regular; you are not
Catholics. How can / bless your"
You can marry us legally, just the
same, can't you" Alaire was breath

"Then marry us. And make haste,
pleasel Pleased"
Law nodded. He could not speak,
for his mouth was dry. His heart was
beating violently; his temples were
pounding; all the blood of his body |
seemed centered In his head.
Before the eyes of the four wonder
ng women Father O'Malley married
hem. 1t seemed to Alaire that he
would never reach the end, although, in
act, he stumbled through the cere-
nony swiftly. Alaire clipped his last
words short by crying;
Tell these people so that they'll un.
ierstand what 1t all means. Tell them
o remember they have seen a mar
iage by the church"
The priest did as he was directed,

Then Dolores led them out.
