POLICE BOARD MEETS.
But No Sergeant is Named to Fill
Vacancy in Department.

The board of police commissioners
held the regular monthly meeting last
evening, but did not appoint a. ser
geant. The report of the civil serV-
ice commission relative to the recent
examination held at which several
patrolmen took the examination, was
presented to the board. The board
voted to recommend to the salary
committee of the common council that
an increase of salary from $3.50 to
$500 be given to the clerk of the COM
mission.
The board discussed the budget in
an informal way. Chairman King
spoke of repairs That are needed in the
garage where the police cars are kept.
He explained that with the layout as
it is at present, there is unnecessary
difficulty in getting at the cars. 1t
is the opinion of the chairman that
with doors erected on the south side
of the building instead Of the west
side, a great amount Of this difficulty
would be eliminated. The building
also shows signs of settling and if the
plan to make the changes is adopted
general job will be done.

EUROPEANS TO USE TRACTORS
(New York Sun.)


 The prestige of the American farmer for producing six times as much food stuff as the European farmer, although the European farmer before the war produced from two to four times as much an acre as the American, bids fair to be matched by the tiller of the soil overseas through the introduction of American built farm implements, according to Prof. William A Boring, Columbia University and treasurere of the American Academy at Rome, who has ust returned from a trip to Rome.
 While the European farmer engaged in intensive cultivation and was thus able to produce more food to the acre than the American farmer, the latter titled more acres with the aid of machinery and thus achieved re- suits in food production that made him equal to six European farmers, Pro- lessor Boring explained Now things seem to be changing in Europe especi- ally in Italy and portions of France, where the governments of these two countries and the Red Cross have in- troduced farm tractors and other ma chinery made in America.

 industrial disturbances, the violent 'ovement of call money and the ill., sss of President Wilson left their ,avy impress upon this weeks cratic i'd active stock market, the daily mover of the five full session aver ';ing we'll over 100000 shares.
 To these factors was added another verse movement in foreign exchange, pecially the London rate, for which e graver outlook of the British rail- ad strike was held mainly respon- Ole.
 The turn into the years fourth quar- r, with its interest and dividend lyments involving much shifting of ans, accounted in a measure for the tgaries of call money, which fluc ated between six and fifteen per cent, 1t the smaller supply of time funds, sulting in a firmer tone, probably hticipated crop moving requirements. iOn the rise of prices during the early tys of the week, in which rails par ,ipated, there were indications of lblic buying but the demand from at quarter came to an abrupt halt Aen the short interest assumed con- ol of the market.

 You say you love the girl, and yet you refuse to marry herr"
 Yep" said the young man, you've got the facts right. I asked her to marry me, and she agreed, but then when we came to look at furniture and apartments and found them costing so much I knew it would be cheaper to let her sue me for breach of promise
 This week the woman announced that she was going to spend the afternoon at the movies The man demanded that she remain at home and make him a shirt. There were some hot words. The upshot was that the hus band took all his wife's skirts to his shop. Also her hats. Did that keep her? Not much.
 Hubby forgot that nice jersey petti- coat. It was just a trifle short, but it would do. So the wife donned it and marched down to the movies. Peo- pie craned their necks, but she went right on. Hubby wants a divorce. He says his wife is indiscreet. Wife wants one. She says her husband is ihcon- siderate.

But by the time this is accomplished, i> is very likely that modern farm ma chinery will have become a regular in stitutions among the agriculturists of these countries.
 Other sections than those in the battle areas have been cultivated with machinery for several years, under the pressure of the war for greater food production. and it is a safe as- sumption that these people will not go back to their former ways of farm ing, but that the use of machinery will extend to all countries and the food production a man may be greatly in creased

Important Ore Find
 Reported on Arizona
 Globe Company Mine


 P. J. Hickey, Jr., superintendent of the Arizona Globe Copper Company, reports an important strike of ore in the company's mine, ten miles south- west of Globe. The ore was encoun- tered in a crosscut at the 4S0-foot level About five feet of high grade ore was exposed when the round of holes was shot yesterday and passing his judgment on the size of the vein cut by the shaft above, MT. Hickey believes the ore in the crosscut will prove to be from fifteen to twenty feet wide. This strike goes far toward confirming the very favorable opinion of the property expressed by mining engineers who have examined and re- ported on it. The new and shorter road being constructed from the Ari- zona- Globe camp to Bellevue is near ing completion and the company ex- poets soon to commence the shipment of ore to the mill of the Gibson Cop- per company.
