THE 3IORXIXG- ... S. BUDGET IS IN ADVISERS' HANDS Criticism of Charity Work Brings Call for Knowing Ones to Come Forth. FEW SLASHES ARE MADE Majority of Estimates Are licsa Than Last Year's Armory Question Is Held Over Library Expenses Are to Bo Considered Later. Replying to newspaper comment that there was unnecessary expense at tached to he maintenance' of the char ity work done by the eounty and the statement that the Chamber of Com merce was abie to do the same work with "the maximum amount of effi ciency and the minimum of overhead expense and operation," J, N. Teal, chairman of the advisory committee that is considering the 1916 county budget, said Monday that if any one had any charges of inefficiency to bring against the county officials, that as a matter of justice they should be presented to the advisory committee before the budget is made up. Henry E. Reed, a member of the committee, was instructed to invite the members of the committee connected with the Chamber of Commerce de partment of charities, of which Dean Vincent has active charge, to meet with the members of the advisory body at their next meeting to .thresh, the question out. "If we are hot running that department of the county as it should be done it is the duty of those who are in a better position to judge how it should be done to tell us." he said. Road Question Considered. The: members of the advisory body were unanimous in the decision last night that the question of what or where improvements in county roads in without their jurisdiction and that it is the duty of the committee to as certain what is reasonable for the county to spend in road improvement and let those who are designated by law determine where and what the ex tent of those improvements shall be. A majority of the budgets from the different branches of the county ad ministration showed a decrease this y-ar. Only in a few instances was it necessary to slash the budgets pre pared by the heads of the various de partments. Kotice was brought to the members of the committee that, totaling all the expense in maintaining the Public J.ibrary. including cost of books bind ing, periodicals, operating expense, rent, insurance, It cost the county a trifle more than 13 cents for the yearly distribution of each book in the library. Los Angeles, with practically the same expense, operates with an annual distribution cost of a little more than 9 cents per volume, or approx imately 20 per cent less than the Port land rost. It was decided to com pare figures with other cities. Armory Item Reld Over. ... T,e first ,tem ln the list, that of the Armory, will be given consideration upon the return of Adjutant-Ueneral V hlte. who is in California. The post, ponement was made upon his request The Assessor's estimate for 1916 Is he lowest that it has been since 19l For the main division of the Assessor's department 39.7S5 was asked, and for the tax department S1765 was recom mended.

Health Hoard Draw Comment. "There are more boards of health than there are bugs." said Mr. Teal when he came to the estimate of the County Board of Health. But the esti mate of J7010. a J50 decrease from last .year, whb allowed. For the salaries of the County Com missioners, set by statute, and for their minor expanses, the committee allowed the estimate of $8447. The Coroner's estimate of $6000 passed. For current Courthouse expenses, in cluding the salaries of all the Court house janitors, engineers, supplies and allowing for a contingency, the board passed $64,791. The request for the installation of a gasoline tank and a coal oil tank were struck out of the estimate. AVhen the budget of the District At torneys office was brought up for cons deration. Mr. Teal expressed the opinion that "seven deputies Is a big working force and lhat manv lawyers can do a lot of business." but as that many have been provided by law their estimate of $96S0 was passed. Reautat Pawled By. .kA ,,trr.a Uac'hed to the estimate from that Ct A"orney's office, asked that the Board, in view of the fact that the state will be "dry" the first of the year, make some provision in the bud get for taking care of the extra work lhat seems to be in store for that of. lice.

HEW PROTEST IDE Berlin Held Accountable for Detaining Pass of Balmaba. OWNERSHIP MADE ISSUE Germany's Refusal to" Recognize Transfer of Registry Is -Held . Unwarranted ln Light of Ship's Previous Cargoes. WASHINGTON, Nov. 9. Ambassador Gerard, at Berlin, has been instructed to protest to the German government against detention of the American sail ing ship Pass of Balmaha. which, after -being seized by a British warship, was captured with the prize crew aboard by a German submariner Germany, recently 'ordered tbe vessel held for prize court proceedings at namourg on the ground that her trans fer from Canadian to American regis ter after the war began was illegal. Transfer Not Recognized. The Pass of Balmaha carried a cargo of cotton for Archangel. Russia. But for the question of registry, Germany, under the rrussianAmerican treaty of 1828, would be obliged to release the vessel even, though she had been carrying contraband when taken from the British prize crew. The German government however, does not recognize transfers of flag by belligerent merchantman during hos tilities and holds that the ship still is Canadian. It Is understood that Am bassador Gerard, in asking for the re lease of this ship, is directed to im press upon the Berlin Foreign Office the fact that she virtually was owned in the United States even before the change of entry and is wholly owned In this country now. Ship Owned In New 'Jjorlc The Pass of Balmaha belongs to the Hardy Ship Company, of New York. Early in the morning, after taking the American flag, she carried a cotton cargo from the United States to Ciftc haven, Germany, and was permitted to proceed from that port after the cargo had been discharged. Returning iu me united Ktates she loaded an other cargo of cotton. Mmnuhii. however, the British orders-in-counncil and the German "war zone" blockade had been proclaimed. The owners de cided tf send the cargo to Russia, and the ship was cleared Tor Archangel. In the North Sea she was over hauled by a British cruiser and a prize crew was placed aboard. While the prize crew was taking her to Falmouth a German submarine appeared,, made the British sailors prisoner and put aboard a German prize crew to take the ship to Cuxhaven. Then the charge was made that the registry transfer had been illegal. BLACK EYE NO LOVE TOKEN Lashing by Tongue Held More Se vere. and Divorce Is Granted. WHITE PLAINS, N. Y.. Nov. 1.

WILSON SUPPORT GAINS Democratic Factions Are Expected to Join for President. . WASHINGTON, D. C. Nov. 1 "In Illinois," said Joseph II. Mulligan, post master . of Kewanee, 111., at the New Wlllard. "it looks as though all the Democratic factions would join heartily in the support of Woodrow Wilson and my prediction is that he will be an easy winner in 1916. One significant, thing in Wilson's favor is the extraor dinary) hold the President has upon the church people. When I say the church people I mean all that solid and conservative clement that believes In the supremacy of religious and moral principles. "In the past the clergy in our state have usually been affiliated with the Rejublicans, but in recent days they have been won over to our cause through their admiration of Woodrow Wilson. They were for him in 1912 and they will be just as heartily for him In 1916." NOTE FEATURED IN BERLIN German Press Omits Comment on American Protest to Britain. BERLIN, via London, Nov. 9.

NEW YORK. Nov. 4. A Russian sa ble coat, one of the tinest ever made in this country, which cost $33,000 and contains 130 perfect sable pelts, will be worn for the tirst time in Washing ton by the wife of a diplomatic repre sentative to this country. The coat, which wao designed and manufactured by H-Jaeckel & Sons Company, furriers at No. 1 West Thirty-second street, was sent to Washington by a special messenger, after having been insured against lass through robbehv" or -acci dent. Within a few days a French actress in this city will receive from this same iirm a sable coat costing $30,000 and containing 120 pelts. These coats are me most expensive tailored and sold in this country for a lone- time. Accnni. ing to furriers they represent extreme activity in turs this season, an activity not equaled in 20 years. The beginning of the season was marked- by the lowest prices in three years, all notoriously bad tor furriers, and it was feared that with practicallv every other world market except Amer ica closed prices would drop to a ruin ous minimum. And then out of a clear sky came the avalanche of military styles for women's dresses. There was a move by garment makers for black fox. skunk, beaver and kolinskv skins and it was estimated recently that with fur-triranied boots, gowns, street suits and other frocks at their height or styie, more than V6.000.000 worth of fur had already gone into trimmings. More than this amount, it is estimated, will be spent for fur trimmings before the season is over. Fur prices in the last few months have been moving steadily upward and will continue to rise, Richard jaeckel, of Jaeckel & Sans, said. There is a great demand for silver, blue and cross fox pelts, all of them practically American furs. Russian sable is plentiful and of the best quality ever sent to this country, but the demand for this kind Is keeping prices well up. Mink skins are popular and these are lelng f ur nished largely from New York State, in the Adirondacks. where some of the finest minks in the world are trapped Blue and cross fox sets are bringing big prices. Mrb. Arthur Schoellkopf. of Buffalo, N.i Y.. Arhp presented the sta dium to -Cornell University, recently paid $7300 for a two-piece set of fox pelts. Mrs. C. It Dodge, of Detroit, Mich., purchased a chinchilla coat hei, for which she paid $9000. PAIR RETURN TO PRIMITIVE Maine Couple Go Into Wilds Wear-' Ing Only Tights. ' BANGOR, Me, Nov. 7. Mr. and Mrs. Walter F. Estes, of Gray, have gone into the 5eep woods around Deadwatert on the Upper Kennebec River, near Moosehead Lake, without weapons, implements or tools bf any kind, with out eatables or other' supplies, and clothed only in tights, for the purpose of demonstrating that it is possible to get a good living and plenty of cloth ing from the products of the forest and from its denizens, continue this primitive life for two months and coma out healthier and heartier than -when they went in. Mr. Estes tairs it is no great feat, that he has accomplished something very like it several times before, and that his wife, who accompanied him on one trip, is Just as able as he to stand the test. They are each 26 years old and are line specimens of the real Down East Yankee. Estes is a hunter, trapper, guide, warden and herb gatherer. He knows every nook of the woods and is famil iar with every living thing that Walks or flies or swims in all Maine. "No man can jump directly from the life of a city into the rough existence of the woods with safety," he says. "A man must train for it; also he will suffer physically. I have been training for weeks for this experiment. I have not tasted a bit of bread or any vege table since 'July 7. My wife also ha3 trained ard she will be lust as much at -home in the woods as I am. We are not making this excursion for any advertising. We have wanted to make the experiment and we know from past tests, that we can succeed. We make no secret of our plans and do not intend to hide from anyone. We want people to come and see us: We shall show them how we live in the woods and explain how anyone .can do the same thing with proper trainingi We would rather like to be watched during our stay, so that everyone may be satisfied that there is no fako about it." It is likely that by this time Mr. Estes ha3 killed a deer or two. as the weather is getting to be a trifle cool for tight3 and the skins would come handy: likewise the meat. He says he can kill a deer with a stone or club and ln any event with a bow and arrow, which implements he can make in the woods. Man Irt Jail Is Injured. Following a fight.

SteAETAT WEST RgK MAB5HALL 70Q-rlOvrF Permanent Relief for Chronic Constipation Knowledge s and Prtittite of Correct Daily Habit the Great Essential. Constipation is a condition affecting all classes of all people and can be per manently relieved only by acquiring habits of regularity. The most hatural time for the elim inative process is in the morning,' when both the muscular and nervous systems are relaxed by sleep and rest. When relief does not come readily,, it is an excellent plan to take a mild laxative at bedtime. Cathartics'and purgatives, that by the Violence of their quick action shock, and disturb the system, should not be employed. An effective laxative remedy that is very dependable, and Which does not gripe or otherwise disturb the organs Involved, is found in a combination of simple laxative herbs known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin that can be bought at the drug store for fifty cents a bottle. Mrs. C, C. Allen, 215 Foam St.. New Monterey, Cal., wrote td Dr. Caldwell that she "found Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin just what was needed for con stipation and distress of the stomach of prominent Americans to co-operate in the work Of the Commission in the United States.
