creased the detective department, reg
ulated by ordinance through the coun
cil, vehicles and solicitors at the union

The commission is composed of J. M.
Wvatt, chairman: W. H. Burges, F. B.
Simmons, Z. T. White and Tim Lyons.
This body of citizens devote their serv
ice to the city from a spirit of civic

governed by a volunteer committee ap
pointed by the mayor, consisting of
Frank Powers, chairman; W. T. Hixson,
secretary; judge P. F. Edwards, C. C.
Keifer and JZ. C. Edwards. This com
mittee lias rendered much valuable ser
vice to tne city, having reorganized
the department from a volunteer basis
to a paid department under the direc
tion of an experienced chief. The com
mission employs and discharges all
men. During the past 3'ear, the com
mission increased the department by
the addition of nine men. the commis
sion compiled and completed a manual
of rules and regulations and has made
the department an effective and com
pact fire fighting force.
Recommendations.
The commission recommends that the
chiefs salary be raised $15 per mdntb;
chiefs secretary and driver, $5; three
captains, Sio each; five drivers, $5 each,
and that all pipemen be paid $75 per
month for the first six months' service
and thereafter $S0 per month.
tThe commission also recommends the
location of a fire station in the vicinity
of the union station.
I heartily concur in the above recom
mendations when the city's finances
will permit.
The strength of the department has
during -the year been Increased from
24 to 33 men.

Cost of Insurance.
We have 100 insurance companies do
ing business in this city. The yearly
premiums collected by 10 companies
averaged $26,000 for the past 12 months.
Taking this as a basis, 100 companies
would average approximately $253,000.
J This, less $92,934.40 fire loss for this
year, wqnld net the companies $160,
065.60, not including an average com
mission of 15 percent paid to agents.
This is what El Paso pays insurance
companies for protection.
During the year th- department laid
4S.S00 feet of hose, raised 875 feet of
ladders, used 56 chemical engines, nine
steamers. S3 fire hydrants, had 3044 men
attending fires, averaging 12 5-6 to
each fire, traveled 105 10-66 miles and
worked US hours and 30 minutes at
fires.
The police always respond to alarms
and render great assistance to this de
partment. Recommendations.
It is advisable at this time to rear
range fire hydrants so that none in the
mercantile section will be ovf.r 300" feet
apart or over 600 feet apart in the resi
dence sections. This will give us a
credit of 3 cents on our insurance key
rate.
It is also deemed advisable to add
11 men to the departn-cnt, making it a
full paid department and receiving 3
cents credit for same.
I also recommend the instalation of
an additional combination hose and
chemical wagon in the vicinity of the
union depot. This will give an addi
tional credit of 2 cents.
I recommend the bringing of the
alarm system up to standard require
ments, giving an additional 2 cents
credit. ,
I nlso recommend the appointment o
a fire marshal, carrying with it a cred
it of 3 cents.
This will give the city a credit of 1"
cents, reducing the rate .from 50 cents
to 37 cents.
Hope for Better Rntes.
If litigation now pending in the fed
eral court is successful, it will result
in many improvements in the war sys
tem, which, according to the figures
of C. B. Roulet, Texas fire Insurance
actuary, will reduce the key rate for
El Paso an additional 23 cents.
The treatment we liaje received from
the insurance companies in fixing our
rate Is extremely discouraging when
you ascertain that they did not consider
the Improvements in our fire depart
ment, the city streets, buildings, electiic
wiring, etc. You gentlemen undoubted
ly appreciate, the fact that the report
made on El Pao was made by paid em
ployes of the companies who came here
for the express purpose of reporting
favorably to the companies. How well
they accomplished the purposes of
their employers is patent to the world.
In this connection. I will state that
I communicated with the chairman of
the state insurance Tatlng board, and
propose to resist the rate made by the
companies.
City Veterinarian.
Dr. Frank Thatcher, city veterinarian,
reports having treated 3S animals in
the fire department. One animal died.
He treated 40 animals in the street and
grade department, with a loss of one
animal.
This department was created in July
of last year, 'and has been an econom
ical venture.
CHy Electrician.
During the past year this departmert
has collected for permits and inspec
tions the sum of $1362.50. The clty
electricicn, A. T. Samworth, issued 519
instalaticn permits, 632 connection per
mits. Mr. Samworth reports that dur
ing the year all meters have tested
correct and that lighting companies
have afforded him every facility for in
stituting investigations.
Mr. Samworth recommends the re
wiring of the city hall
Health Department.
The city physician, Dr. W. H. Ander
son, files an Interesting report. He ro-
i ports the total deaths at 1164. giving
the death rate at 23.2S percent, based
on a population of 50,000.
In dispensary work the department
treated 437 Americans, 1639 Mexicans
and 92 negroes, totaling 2160 ease. The
eye and ear clinic treated 40 Americans
and 686 Mexicans, totaling 726 cases.
The department visited 330 Americans.
472 Mexicans and 84 negroes, making
8S6 patients, or a grand total of 3780

A Great Musician
may master one instrument piano, violin,
flute or cornet and much of the music
composed for that instrument. But
EDISON
Phonograph
is the universal musician. Because it masters not only one
instrument but all instruments. And it masters these instru
ments, not simply individually bnt collectively it masters the
entire band, the whole orchestra, the singing voice of the
Grand Opera stars and the speaking voice of the monologist.
The Edison Phonograph brings to your home all of the
best music of every character. It plays both Standard and
Amberol Records and Amberol Records play twice as long
as Edison Standard Records, -which means that on Amberol
Records you get the many beautiful selections that are too
long to be played on ordinary records.
Can you afford to buy an instrument that offers you less
than the Edison?

nulldlnpr InHpector.
S. B. Haggart. superintendent of this
department, reports that since the or
ganization of his department on April
IS, 1909, to March 2, 1910. he has issued
404 building permits, collected $1129.00
in fees, and reports the value of build
ings at $820,383.00.
This department has made all neces
sary inspections and is rigidly enforc
ing the building ordinances, resulting
In a decided improvement in class of
building being erected.
Park Department.
Mr. Harris, commissioner of this de
partment, reports that the city has 12
parks under his jurisdiction. His de
partment has when requested assisted
citizens in planning and planting their
premises, has devoted much time to
street parking and assisted In parking
school grounds. Two hundred and sixty
seven new trees have bcn planted, and
the total expended for labor, including
commissioner's salary, is $6059.20. A
bandsrand costing $1705.00 was erected
in Cleveland Square. The expense for
water, tools, utensils, grass, bandstand
etc., totaled $41SS.20, making a net cost
to the city for all parks approximately
$10,247.40. He reports the value of all
park property at $1,229,775
Mr. Harris "report that during the
past three years, you have increased
the number of parks by 100. percent in
additional parks and about 2000 per
cent in ground area; he makes many
good recommendations which should be
carried out.
I believe it expedient to acquire more
park sites, and I recommend that Mr.
Harris's salary be raised $50 per month.
He is rendering the city goo service
upon an Inadequate salary and we can
not expect to retain his service unless
we pay a salary calculated to give him
an adequate return upon his ability and
knowledge.

ItecomraeHdations.
I again renew my recommendation of
last year to the effect that the legisla
ture should be requested to so amend
the city charter as to change the time
of collections of city taxes from Feb
ruary to July, having taxes rendered
delinquent on the 31st day of July In
stead of March 1, as at present. This
will result "In affording the taxpayer
six months' . time after payment of
county and state tax la which to meet
his city tax.

PASTY FOOD
Too Commonly U&ed.
The use of pasty cereals Is not ad
visable A physician says: "Pasty ce
reals are very indigestible and a bad
thing for the stomach, causing a de
pressed feeling and quite a train of dis
orders, particularly of the intestines
and nerves.
Cereals, such as wheat and oats, can
be cooked long enough and well enough
to fit them for human use but the or
dinary -n-ay of cooking leaves them in a
nasty condition."
A gentleman from Evansville, Ind.,
sa?.M physician prohibited the use of
oats and neat for I was in a bad con
dition physically, with pronounced dys
pepsia. . , ,.
"He "aid the heavy paste was indi
gestible" but that Grape-Xuts, being a
thoroughlv cooked food and cooked in
such a manner as to change the starch
Into a peculiar sugar, could be easily
digested. .
T liave become ver fond ind
nmnP-N-uts and all the uncoinfol
feelings have disappeared. I have g;
TiPriv twelve pounds in weight
