NEW YORK MAYOR IS
IN DANGER OF JAIL
IIylan and Other Members of Board
of Estimate Must Restore City
Budget by December %.

New York, Dec. 23.-Mayor Hyan
and other members of the board of
estimate of this city face n jail SEN
tence for contempt unless they re-
store to the city budget, not later
than December 25 some $4,000, 000
alleged to have been illegally de-
Quoted from the pension funds for
police apd other civil service en-
ployes. The appellate division OF the
supreme court yesterday upheld the
writ of mandamus issued by Supreme
Court Justice Mullan directing the
restitution of the neglected items.
The budget has been in the hands
of the mayor since it was returned
several days ago by the board Of al
dermen. City Comptroller Craig had
requested reduction of SO, 1000 600
in order to have the budget comply
with the constitutional provision that
it must not eXcGvu two per cent. of
the assessed valuation OF the cty's
real and personal property. This
reduction, the comptroller asserted,
should came from the appropriation
allotted to the board of education.
Instead, the board Of estimate de-
Quoted only $27S,000 from the regu-
lar appropriations, and failed to pro
vide for pension funds Of $1,000 600
made mandatory by the state con-
Stitution.

CRANBERRY SAUCE.

"Ho, hum" old Mr. Grow yawned.
He had stopped to talk with Turkey
Proudfoot in the cornfield 1t was
fall; and the shocks of corn stood on
every hand like great fat scarecrows,
with fat yellow pumpkins lying at
their feet, as if the scarecroWs' heads
lad fallen off.
Mr.. Crow always yawned good
deal when he chatted with Turkey
Proudfoot, and he wasn't always as
careful as he might have been about
covering up his yawns. Somehow Mr..
Crow found Turkey Proudfoot dull
company. Turkey Proudfoot had
never been off the farm. On the
other hand, old Mr.. Crow was a great
traveller. In his younger days he
used to spend every winter in the
South. And though he felt that the
long journey had become too hard
for him now, he thought nothing of
flying around Blue Mountain and up
and down Pleasant Valley.
AS a result of his Wanderings Mr.
Crow had learned many things. And
as a result of his staying at home,

IF KIDNEYS AND
BLADDER BOTHER
Take Salts to flush Kidneys and
neutralize irritating
acids

Kidney and Bladder weakness re.
suit from the uric acid, says a noted
authority. The kidneys filter this acid
from the blood and pass it on to the
bladder, where 1t often remains to ir-
ritate and inf1ame, causing a burning
scalding sensation, or setting up an ir-
ritation at the neck of the bladder
obliging you to seek relief two or
three times during the night. The
sufferer is in constant dread, the water
passes sometimes with a scalding sem
sution and is very profuse; again,
there is difficulty in avoiding it.
Bladder weakness. most folks call
it, because they can't control urina-
ton. While 1t is extremely annoying
and sometimes very painful, this is
really one of the most simple ailme nts
TO overcome. Get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from your pharmacist
and take a tablespoonful in a glass OF
water before breakfast, continue this
for two or three days. This will neu-
tralize the acids in the urine so it no
longer is a source of irritation to the
bladder and urinary organs which
then act normally again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon Juice, combined with lithia,
and is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders
caused by uric acid irritation. Jad
Salts is splendid for kidneys and
causes no bad effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant, efferves-
cent lithia-w drink, which quickly
relieves bladder trouble.

Turkey Proudfoot had learned he
couldn't even understand what Mr..
Crow was talking about. But on this
occasion Mr.. Crow mentioned some
thing that made him shudder.
"Ho, hum" Mr.. Crow yawned
again. My appetite isn't what it used

the cranberry bog and pick a few
cranberries. Why don't you come

NEGROES ACTIONS
LANDS HIN IN JAIL
Arrested BY Police Last Night as Sus-
picious Character After
Several Complaints.

Mathu James, a negro, is being held
in the city jail under investigation as
a result of visits he made to several
homes on Hayne street last night. The
negro called at the home of James
Largue at 619 North Hayne and wlen
Mrs Largue came to the door he
asked if the man OF the house was at
home. stating that he wanted to get
some work. Upon being informed
that Mr.. Largue was not at home the
negro did not make any attempt at
violence, but calmly walked over to
two other homes nearby aid made tho
same inquiry.
Mrs. Largue thinking the negroes ac-
tons somewhat strange reported the
matter to the police headquarters and
in due time the officers lodged him in
jail Just what the negros intentions
for inquiring for work at o'clock at
night is not known, but it is an APP
parent fact that the precedent is not
likely to be established
