Francis Xnvlcr McCabo. the distinguished president of Do Paul University, has been transferred by his superiors to Kansas City, Mo. Tho removal of this great and good man from his activities hi this city is a distinct loss to Chicago. For years he has been a potent power In molding public sentiment in, tho right direction and has at all times been foremost in every movement for tuo advancement of the best interests of tho whole com munity without refercnco to creed, politics or race. Droadmlndcd and generous ho has lett the Imprint of his noblo ana en thusiastic nature upon everything with which he has associated his name. Do Paul University has grown, broadened and strengthened under his direction and to enumornto tho ac cumulated eloments of strength and usefulness ho has brought to It would till a column. Tho Eaglo Joins with Its fellow citi zens In extending to Father McCubo its best wishes for a happy and pros perous future nnd together with all Chlcagonns takes this occasion of ex pressing its regret at losing so good and vnluablo a member of tho community. CHICAGO POLICE ARE UNDER PAID. Asphalt rakers employed by tho city get J5.7C a day. That Is 83 cents moro than tho highest paid patrolman on Chicago's streets. Truck drivers employed by tho city get $6 a day. That Is $1.07 a day moro than tho pay of the pollcoman who has been traveling beat for fifteen years. Sower laborers get $4.45 a day. That Is 49 cents a day moro than a pioba tionnry patrolman recolves. e Even tho lowly whlto wing who sweeps tho streets gets within 29 cents a day as much as tho policeman who has worked eleven months. "rin vou Bunnose tho public over stops to think of facts llko those?" asked Michael O'Connor, head of tho policemen's organization. "And If thoy do, how can they expect to hold a po lice force together on such wages?" "And counting hours spent In court, on reserve, drilling, and shooting, a patrolman works on an nvcrago of twelvo hours a day. Ten hours Is a long day for nearly all other city em ployes." Here aro a few moro facts: Lathers, plasterers, roofers, masons, and pavors get $8 it day. Tho highest wage of patrolmen is $1.93. Plasterers' assistants get $0.10; wood finishers, $0.S0; muckers, $0.00; and mechanics' helpers, $5.fi0. Patrol men who have been Jn tho department two years get $4.27 a day. City hall clerks get ns high as $3,300 nnri .von inntnr clerks aro paid as high as $1,500. Patrolmen in tholr first year of sorvlco get $1,440. "And overcoats cost us $70 instead of tho $27 wo paid a few years ago," continued O'Connor, whose - forto seems to Ho in comparison. "A blouso Is now $30. It used to bo $9. Trousers are $17. against $6 four years ago. Shoes are $12 to $15 and they used to bo $3.50 to $4." "Every request for pay increases made by bona nde unions was granted by tho council flnanco committeo," O'Connor said. "Tho patrolmenusked for an Increase of $300 a year. They didn't got Jt. Why? Woll, tho patrol men have an organization, but it Is for social, athletic, and oillciency' pur poses oirty." KELLY BOOMS CHICAGO Chicago first. That is what D. F. Kelly, general manager of Monde! Brothers and vice president of the Chlcagp Boosters' Club, proclaims "Heretofore a comparatively small group of men hate done all thu big things in this Hty. Now it is timo for every business man in Chicago to do his share to mako Chicago the greatest city In the country. "Tho Chicago Boosters' Publicity Club recognizes three great periods in the history of Chicago. Tho Chicago Arc, the woild's fair and tho present rovivnl," ho continued. "Tho boosting spirit rebuilt tho city after tho Chicago lire, it built tho world's fair, tho greatest demonstra tion of its kind that was ever known. It placed Chicago in tho forcfroilt of the commercial world internationally. "After tho fair the 'boosting Hplrit apparently died out. Tiio present re vival was brought about by tho action of Mayor Thompson in securing with out cost to tho city bill board space nnd other advertising measures that made posslblo an organization of the Chicago Boosters' Publicity Club, an organization that has no direct con nection with tho Boosters' Club. "It is planned to rnlso $1,000,000, ap proximately $250,000 to bo spent semi annually under tho direction of an ad visory committeo of advertising counsellors who aro serving without compensation nnd an advisory coun cil of fifty of tho mostfpromlncnt men In Chicago, tho chairman of which committeo Is Thomas E. Wil son, tho great packer. No commission Is paid for soliciting funds, no salaries to olliccrn or directors," AUGUST F. DRUCHMAN, One of the Best Commissioners coin Park Ever Had. Lin- C. B. Ha7elwood, vlco president of the Union Trust Company, Is one of the most popular men connected with that popular bank. Ho is one of tho rising young men of Chicago and his clean cut methods mako new friends for him every day. Boost Chicago. AND STILL M0IE BOND ISSUES Four pioposed bond Issues totaling $34,200,000 will bo placed on tho bal lot to bo pnsscd upon by tho people at the April 13 election as a result of notion by tho city council. The Issues call for improved street lighting, building of now and rehabilitating old bridges, building of additional play grounds, small parks nnd beaches and the construction of n now convention hall. The street lighting proposal, tho largest of tho four, culls for an ex penditure of $15,000,000 nt tho rat ft of $3,000,000 n year for five years. It had almost unanimous support In tho council, only six votes bolng recorded against It. All of tho pioposals wore approved by largo majorities. Tho purposo and amount of each of tho proposals follow: Improvements nnd exten sion of the electric street lighting system $15,000,000 Creation of additional small parks and recreation grounds 5,000,000 Completion of tho 1911 hrldgo construction pro- gram 9,200,000 Construction of n soldiers' memorial-municipal con vention hall 5,000,000 Although nil tho -proposals were hold to have merit, determined oppo sition to placing them on tho ballot this year was mado by Aid. Henry D. Cnpitnlu and Thomas O. Wallace, both members of tho' flnanco committeo, which favorably recommended them to tho council for consideration, RE-ELECT BAULER Popular 22d Word Alderman Should be Returned to the City Council. Tho voters of tho Twonty-socond ward should ro-elect John II. Bauler to tho city council. Ho has proven himself to bo an ablo, honest, faithful and Influential alderman. WESBEY WILL m IN 26TH William II. Wesbey, popular city collector, will be tho noxt Republican committeeman from tho 20th ward unless all signs fall. Mr, Wosboy Is tho cholco of the rank and fllo of tho party and there Is little doubt of his election. n. i ii ii . ... . . i .in, , , jJbbbbbbbbbbVtvIHbI .BBBBBBBBBBBBBBP Irl IMl't? .BBK . v j$yriBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBK ''VlraBHiBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBi ''SiBBBBBBBBBBBBBHl' WHY "VOTES FOR WOMEN IN 1920"? Cmigre"', not long ago, was quite seriously dlicusliiR the apparent need of the tuition for a regent during the period of Mr. Wilson's disablement. Congress l-n't -mnklng -oncrsntlon on this subject nowadays. Anything farther Is likely to tnke the form of apologies to the first lady of the land. Anyway, revised reports from Washington concerning John Barton Payne's new honors have It that the former bend of the shipping board wns Invited one pleasant afternoon to call nt tho White House. Mrs. Wil son received him, poured Ids ten, nked him how many lumpM and In cldentnlly remarked tITnt the presi dent wished to appoint him secre tary of the Interior. Judge Pnyno succeeded in stirring tho fragrant orange pekoe without spilling a drop, nnd In ucceptlng the position before the sugnr melted. A few dns Inter, say (lie revised reports, Admiral Benson leeelved a wlmllnr Invitation. With his cup of ten ln received from Mrs. Wilson the president's offer of the chnlrmnnslilp of the shipping board. He skillfully sipped nnd patrlo'tlcally accepted. The French, ,hoo imtlonnl motto N "eherchcz la feinine" hnve been a In hep, so to spenk, for some time ever wlneo ambassador Jusserand reported to Paris that he hud been unable to see President Wilson, but had nchlcvcd a most enjoyable chat over the teacups with Mrs. Wilson on tho subject of thu American reservations to the treaty. . bbbbbbVP bbbbbV Ejfe, x jKLw Mm , yM C "A SUPER-PRESIDENT IN MR.

Graham of Illi nois, chairman of the liouso war ex penditures committee, evidently has moro Information regarding Bernard M. Bnruch (portrait herewith). At tiny rnte, he said the other day, among other things: "Barney Bnruch had more power during thu war than any other mnn In the world. "Barney Bnruch controlled abso lutely the food supply of tho United .States. "Barney Bnruch originated the price llxlng policy for all commodities and put It In operation. "Barney Bnruch regulnted tho production of steel, copper, and Iron, und decieed their disposition.

JOHN SHELL, 131, "AIN'T DEAD YIT" "Uncle" Johnny Shell, who Is go ing on his l.'IL'd year, Hoes not pur poso to bo bossed by any "upstart" father-in-law, by heck. A few days ago, tho second wlfo of .tho world'! oldest mnn, n young woman In her thirties, died nt their mountain home on llell-Fur-Snrtln creek, In Leslie county. "Uncle" John's slx-yenr-old son, his constant companion since tho lit tle fellow was old enough to walk, was nil that was left to him. He would be n comfort during tho short period left for him, the old mountain eer told his neighbors. George ('happen, a man In his sixties, Is "Uncle" John's father-In-law. He took charge of his grandson and started homo with him. "Uncle" John was too old, father-in-law held, to tako care of tho boy. Ho should be sent to school. His protests going unheeded, "Uncle" John appeared with his "flintlock," of his Indian fight dny. Ho shouted to Chappell to stop. "I uln't dead ylt, by n long shot," declared tho old man. SCHR0EDER WILL TRY TO FLY HIGHER Just about the first thing MnJ. It. W. Schroedrr of Chicago, said when ho came to In the hospital nt Dayton, was that he .uis going higher next time. Tho major had Just flown to H0.020 feet (a new record), and had fallen more than flvo miles while un conscious for two minutes, lauding with eyes frozen shut and In u stnto of collapse. The Immediate cause of the flyer's troubles was the exhaus tion of Ills oxygen tanks. His Instru ments show that he exceeded ltolnfl liohlf's world record by 5,070 feet, and that he encountered a tempera ture of 07 degiees below zero. It thus appears that Major Schroeder was actually bumping around In what tho scientists Jocu Inrly cnll the "roof of the world.'' They assert that there Is a mysteri ous, intangible roof to the world, whero the thermometer stops falling nnd even begins to rise. Major .Schroeder was dressed heavier than any polor explorer who ever set forth, lie literally was wrapped in flexlblo electric heaters. HMaBBBBfl bbw tts -.? n IbbI L , t BBBBBV.
