By ANDREW r. KELLEY

Among the interesting coming
attractions is John Gilber's latest
picture, Downstairs" due very
soon at LoeW's Palace Theater.
Interesting particularly to me
because John Gilbert wrote the

save that $25.04 each and every
week. Sorry as 1 am to report
it, he Squandered 10 cents every
day for carfare, and sometimes
was known to spend 10 cents
of a Sunday on tobacco.
Thus he saved an average of
$24 each and every week of the
year. Every night he ate his
bread and bologna. On rare
holidays, such as Easter and st.
MichaelmaS Day, he would get
reckless and abandon the 10
cents worth of bologna in favor
of 10 cents worth of liverWurSt.
After Is years of that, Stanis-
laus read his favorite book and
discovered that he had saved
slightly over $4,000. Now that
isn't such a bad sum for a
guy who has been existing
mainly on bread and bologna
over a period of years.
Decides to Co Home
Stanislaus decided to take the
money, set sail for Poland, and
start a business there where, he
had heard, one could attain
vast wealth if one had the
dough to set ones self up in
business.
Sadly, he quit his job and
bade farewell to Eighth Avenue,
which was still very much torn
up. Sadder still, StanislauS
withdrew the $4,000 from
that charming bank that paid
such swell interest. And, sad
dest of all, he ate his last loaf
of bread and devoured his last
slice of bologna on the night
before he sailed for good old
Poland, where the villagers
were still scratching their heads
in perpleXity.
AS you might expect, he
booked passage the cheapest
possible way. Tourist, they
called it, and Stanislaus wanted
to know how much they'd take
off the cost if he promised not
to look at the ocean.
The liner was just few
miles beyond Ambrose light
ship when q buffet supper was
served. Stauislaus pushed his
way into the dining room first,
though ne was forced to slap
an old lady down to do it.
The steward approached him.
What will you have, sir?"
he said politely.

Lived FrugaIIy

Out of his $50 weekly salary
he paid SO for a room. That
left $27 to go gay with. Out
of that he had to pay for
meals. So, in the morning, he
bought a pint of milk. That
cost 4 cents. For luncheon
he bought cup of coffee and
a hot dog with mustard and
sauerkraut. Ten cents. For
dinner at home he bought a
stale loaf of bread and 10
cents worth of bologna.
That totaled up to % cents
per day, or, if you're in the
mood for higher mathematics,
$1.96 per week. And, deduct
ing that from his remaining
..:27, left him $25.O4 to save.

N CARL To RULE
On MARRIAGE

The question of just when a
married person is married IS
causing such grave concern to
Navy Yard officials that they
have asked Comptroller General
McCarl to settle the problem.
Faced with the necessity of dis
charging some Is machinists be-
cause of a reduced appropriation,
the officials have been stumped
by designations of wives from the
service and by the filing of
marital separation statements by
the men.
The designations and separa-
tions were occasioned by the
married persons" clause in the
economy act which provides that
in the event of reduced ap-
preparation, necessitating curtail-
ment of personnel, married per-
sons whose mates are employed
in the District or Federal service
shall be considered first for dis
charge.
In an attempt to act fairly, the
Navy Yard officials have held up
the dismissals and placed the
men on furlough until the situa-
ton is clarified by Mr.. McCarl.
1t must. be decided also whether
a separation of man and wife, by
the establishment of two resi-
dences without court action,
meets the requirements of the
economy act.

sTAUNTON, Va, Sept. 7.
L. Frank Reed, Is, we'll

was killed today by a vicious
bull which had already at
tackled two persons.
Freed's body was found, fright
fully mutilated, by his wife, who
was alarmed when he failed to
return to his home with his dogs.
She summoned neighbors and
made a search, as a result Of
which she found Freed hfeless,
the bull only a short distance
away.
Killed by BuckshOt
The animal attempted to at
tack the party and was shot six
times, the bullets inflicting in
juries serious enough to drive it
away. Later it was killed with
q charge of buckshot fired at
close range.
Freed had been warned of dan
ger from the animal, which had
attacked Mrs. Freed on one occa-
sion last winter and which only
last Tuesday had charged Paul
Click, a 13year-old boy, who,
however, managed to escape un-
harmed.
Had No Weapons
Indications were that Freed
had put up as good a battle as
possible against the maddened
bull, but he had no weapons ade-
Quate to defend himself.

funeral have not been completed.

us. SURPRISES

Eleven years Of Government
surpluses going into debt reduc-
tion have been more than wiped
out by two years of deficit, fig
ures showed today.
In the II years ending June 30
there was built up $3,46O, 900, 900
''velvet" at the Treasury as the
result of the heavy excess of re-
ceipts over expenditures which
went to debt reduction.
Since June 80, including the
September Is financing, the pub
lie debt will have been increased
by $4,319,0OO,O 900, so that on that
date the Government will be
$859, ,000, 900 behind statutory debt
retirement since the war.
Another substantial increase is
indicated for the 1888 fiscal year,
while the Treasury was hopeful
that in 1884 the budget might be
balanced and the orderly retire
ment of the debt resumed.
The per capita debt, based on
an estimated population of 1884,
947,000, will be $164.11 September
Is and the per capita interest
cost $5.74. Interest charges for

PAYMENT.
Of TAXES
URGED
Plan to Pay Citizens Interest
Offered in Arlington;
Would Stop Loans

A plan for payment to citi.
zens of large sums of interest
now being paid to banks was
offered last night by F. E.
Mann, a member of the COM
mittee on county finances of
the Arlington County Civic
Federation in proposing a new
system of tax collection in the
county.
Mr.. Mann advocated allowing
citizens to pay portions of their
taxes, due each November, in ad.
vance, to save them trouble in
paying the larger amount re-
quired by lump sum.
The committeeman pointed out
that the county now borrows
large sums from banks in antici-
patton of tax collection. Interest
is paid on this money.
He proposes that citizens be al.
lowed to pay in advance, that in.
tereSt on the advance payments
be credited the payers, and thus
cut down materially the necessity.
Of borrowing from outside sources.
Mr.. Mann said that credit books
similar to those used in Christ
mas Savings accounts" could be
given each taxpayer when they
made the payments. In this man
ner, although it would cost a small
sum to operate, the county would
save money in that they would
always have funds on hand, he
said. In addition, Mann proposed
part payment of delinquent taxes.
