Incidentally it is a peculiar point that
ware men arc using n condition against

by IN" logroIIing and earmarking tactics
OF the Ware COuncilncp n political sys d.
TEN which was denounced by the Ad

funds being made unavailable for any
other purpose than that stated in the
ordinances Of Council.
Another point which the Ware men
overlook is that they have fought
against supplying the City Architect,
Who under the City Charter is charged
with the duty of preparing all plans and
>prclhcationS, with an adequate staff.
Whrrc at least sixty men are needed
IN he City Architects Office, only five
or SIX are available.

the total Of unencumbered funds, but
the question arises What IL there to

The money Is simply an excess, one
of the excuses due to the policy Of ear e
marking.
More Put Under Contract
The Ware total also contains S31T,
51j.27 for paving streets. The Con J.
was put under contract last month.
And since the recent request for the
loan, approximately S125,OOO has been
put under contract.
Two items for tho grading and paw
ing of the streets show in the list oil

port plainly shows; that this Is sub

first place this sum is subject tC
future legislation by Council" and il
tho second place Council has just boldly
refused to supply the needed lcgisa
ton in an effort to hamstring, il Il
charged, the Administration stree
cleaning program for next year.
Another nice item in the Ware tota
is S134,2 for bathing beaches. Th,
bare statement Of this sum and its in
cluson in the total Of "unenCumberet
loans" ignores two important facts.
The first is that the use Of the none.
is subject to legislation by Council, ant
the second is that $lO4,334.BG wa
placed under contract last month.
Water Plans Go Ahead
Work on the extension Of the waite
supply is going right ahead. but thi
does not prevent the use of the Con
troller figures in an effort TO disCredi
the Administration.
For example, the Ware total include
81, ,191 ,427 for the extension and i'm
provement of the water supply. Th
Controllers own report shows tha
nearly 100000 was placed under con
tract last month";
Among the myriad items which go t
make the so called unencumbcrcd tota
are two, totaling. about $1,000, for tn
completion of City Hall. This is nc
serious proposition, yet the $500
added to many other such sums goes

<cw York, Oct. THE mystery cast

UoIska vas dispellcd yesterday. Her
oorn.ol Dudley Field Malone. disclosed
,Got thc COPY Of the divorce decree OBJ
toincd by the beautiful opera singer
rom rom Captain Arcade d'Eingornc is in
existence.
When Samuel Tntcrmyer recently re-
,urnpd from abroad as counsel for Alex

Nine WalSka. intimation was given
,ba, efforts would be made to prove
.o"t tS"t she was not legally divorced from
rontain d'Eingornc. If that were
t,no II was said her marriage to
Cochran would be dissolved.
Mr.. Malone. in reply to questions,
Yesterday said:
"AL. Phclan Bealc. former counsel

,bat Nine. Walska and d'Eingorne ap-
reared before a Russian Consular Of

trancp Of the decree at Petrograd. The
round Of the decree was matrimonial
Misconduct. She was not obliged to go
to Russia to institute the action

that her first husband was living. She

tbat she had obtained a divorce. Nine.
Walska said her fathers name was
NanoIcon Puaoz and her mother s
Caroline Ulakowaska.
Mr.. Malone explained yesterday that
Nina. Walskn had first used the name
Gamma Waska as a stage name and
later adopted it as her true name.
Lost Papers in Travel
Regarding her first husband, Nine.
Walska in the affidavit filed with the
marriage license application recited
Gamma Walska. being duly sworn,
doth dcpOse and say. that an action for
divorce was commenced In the Judicial
Drpartment Of the Senate at st. Pet
rograd Russia, by deponent against
her husband, the said Arcade d Elm e
rorne. Said action resulted In q
Anal deere in favor of the deponent en- =
tered in March, 1915.
"Tbat dcponent has made diligent
and careful search for said final decree
but that the same has been mislaid
and cannot be found, mostly due to the
fact that deponent has Travelled eX
tcnsively in the last year and a hall
and the said papers were lost in such
travel"
Second Husband Died
Nine. Walska's second husband, Dr.
Fraenkel died. And it was understood
At one time that the first husband was
also dead in February, 1915. Nine
Walska announced to the newspaper.
that her first husband had been killed

report was reiterated in August. 1915
when the engagement of Nine. WalskG

vented the City Architect from pre-
pairing plans and therefore the actual
starting of work under contract has
been held up.
Other Contracts Pending
But Director Caven and others said
that even SO, most of the SO called un-
encumberCd money would be under con-
tract by the end of the year.
Not only does the Mayor propose to
show by facts gathered from his di
rectors and bureau chiefs that the "un-
encumbered' story of the Ware men is
myth, but he will show by the report
of the Controller himself that the fig
ures have been cleverly piled up toT
the sake of argument.
For example. the total unencumbered
funds contains an item of 500 900 for
repairing and resurfacing streets. But
the same report shows that upward Of
SlOO 900 was placed under contract last
month and that about $500 600 has re-
Gently been spent out of the original
sum Of S40O 900.
Experts say it is not possible to spend
more than this in the time allotted.
Again the total figure used by the
Ware men contains an item of S4S.-
'37.2I Tor wages and material for al
/ tcration. maintenance and repair of
police and fire buildings.
But the Controllers report shows
that nearly $1,000 was placed lndrr
will be let az soon as the pluIIS arc
ready.

police and fire stations. But the Con-
| trollcr'S report show that this is sub

controlled Council.
Bridge Fund Included
One of the big items in the Varc total
is $500 900 for the South Street Bridge
! office, that the Director of Public
! Works has advertised several times in
an unsucccsaful effort to get bids.
In the matter of sewers the items ar
almost invariably carmarkod. Yet the
! totals count in the sum Of tho uncn-
numbered fund.
For instance. the following charges
stand in the Ware total: bingham street
sewer. $4,000; Charles street sewer,
500. 900. and so on.
Plans are being made for these sewers
or have been ordered made. Until the
contract is let the sum appears as un-

COLD WEATHER
Crisp and Snappy Wintry Air Should
Make Your Blood Tingle
YOU SHOULD ENJOY OUTDOORS
PeptO- Mangan Will Fill Your Blood
With Vital Red COrpuScleS, Able
to Stand Cold Weather

Some people dread cold weather.
The least frost in the air shrivels them
up. They put on heavy flannels, hug
the fires and still feel cold. 1t is pref =
ty safe to say that people like that
have thin, weak blood
On the other hand you see other
people who take on healthy glow in
cold weather. Their blood shows red
ON their cheeks and the color of their
lips is heightened. They step out
briskly. breathe in the cold air, and
il seems to act like atomic.
That what it means to have plenty
of rich, healthy blood. The ozone in
cold air touches the good blood in
the lungs and puts new vigor into the
body. You square your shoulders
The sting of clean, crisp, cold air
feels pleasant. You really enjoy the
cold. 20
On the other hand, people with
bodies that are fed with weak, impov-
2rished blood, lacking in red cor
puscles, hate cold air. Their faces
and lips seem to turn blue and look
pinched. Their eyes look watery
There's no pleasure in winter for
them. ~.
So be sure your blood is healthy
Perhaps it needs a lift right now
Pepto-Mangan will tone your blood up
to its normal state Doctors have pre-
scribed ita for years because it has
the right ingredients to make new
blood. Besides, it is easy to take.
