OFFICIALS CAUGHT QUITE JPREPABED Call for Budget Meeting Finds Statistics Are Not Ready to Be Submitted.
Mayor Zimmerman's call for a budget, meeting Monday night has caught many city officials unprepared and it Is doubtful If many of them will have their estimates for next year's . expenditures completed by this time. It is not the mayor's plan to complete the work of fixing estimates for the various departments, and of fixing the city tax rate, at this one meeting. He plans for a general discussion of ways and means, before final action is taken. When the budget Is made up several important questions will ' be considered. Whether the city is to pay for its street lighting next year will be one. The mayor is in favor of paying for the street lighting, starting with January 1, 1913, but cancelling all obligations of the city to the plant before .this time. The $24,000 due the special street Improvement fund, for paying off .street Improvement bonds when they fall due, must be paid, is the ruling of the state examiners who recently examined the city's books. This must be provided for In the bidget. Some department's account must be cut down, or the taxes must be raised, is the opinion of the city officials. What departments will be cut, or how much the taxes will be raised promises to be discussed in a very interesting manner at the budget meeting Monday night at the board of works office.

MAY LOSE CLERKS
Changes in Postal Service . May Remove Clerks. The change of the Pittsburg and St. Louis railway mail service, which is to be taken from the Fifth division
of the railway mail service and placed in the new Fifteenth division, will remove a number of railway mail clerks from Richmond. The creation of a new Fifteenth division was authorized under the postal appropriation bill passed by congress. The new division will have its headquarters in Pittsburg. Formerly the headquarters were in Cincinnati. The new'divlsion will comprise the Pitts-burg-St. Louis "service, the PittsburgCincinnati service and the PittsburgNew York service. The Pittsburg-St. Louis service has a number of clerks who make Richmond their home. With the proposed change the clerks will remove to some city that Is near their division terminals. It is believed that some of them will move to Indianapolis.

Don't Waste Nervous Strength
Energy In Useless Fretting. ' - The immediate cause of neuralgia is poison in the blood; therefore our object Is to keep the blood pure and .healthy, as it is only when the' blood is poor that the neuralgia poisons develop in it Poor blood is caused by lack of sleep, lack of fresh air, improper food and overfatigue, by too little exercise and by mental worry. 'Nothing is easier to say than "Don't worry" and few things so difficult to carry out. But by "Don't worry" the doctors mean do not waste valuable nervous strength and energy In fretting over things beyond your control. -Make. a point of putting all anxiety from you daring meals and above all .when you go to bed. Train yourself to think of something cheerful as you try .to go to sleep; otherwise your sleep will be harassed and fitful and will do .yen very little good. He was a wise man who made It a .rule to think of nothing disagreeable after 10 o'clock at night He at any rate could never have been a victim to 'neuralgia. ( . Keep up the general tone of the nervous system and you will have little difficulty in keeping, off nervous ailments, notably, neuralgia. London Mali. ?' A FREAK OF NATURE.
The Curious Vegetable Caterpillar of New Zealand. Among the many strange growths, apparently freaks of nature, which are to be found In New Zealand the vegetable caterpillar readily ranks among the foremost' This caterpillar la several inches .In .length. I hairless and does not -differ essentially In appearance from some of the caterpillars of yam own land. - . ' . Its claim', to distinction lies to the fact that-when it gets ready to die it digs a hole for Itself in the earth and completely buries itself. Later a slender green shoot springs from the spot This bears two or more leaves near Its top. ..;- Cpon investigation It Is found that the green shoot springs from the bead of the dead caterpillar, and further Investigation develops the fact that the Jmdy of the caterpillar Is filled with ! roots. ' . tggv?': . The form Is retained without change, and the roots do not pierce through he skin or entet the ground.. When dug np this dead yet living freak pretests a most, odd: appearance., for. the head and even the eyes of the cater-
Euiar are distinctly seen, yet from the ead Is grewlac the vreea sprout, with

In regard to his being appointed specitl assistant prosecutor for the remainder of this term of circuit court, the next two months, Perry J. Freeman stated this morning there is noth-
' ing unusual in the appointment. As a
rule, the prosecutor appoints his deputy, but Mr. Freeman declares that such an appointment as his has been made before by the judge of the Wayne circuit court. "I am not the deputy prosecutor." Mr. Freeman said. "I am a special assistant prosecutor for the circuit court work. I have nothing to do with police court cases. The present prosecutor is not as yet experienced with all the duties of the prosecutor's office and Judge Fox deemed it best to appoint a special assistant prosecutor. He secured an apropriation from the county council for $150. He asked me if I would accept the position for the next two months, or until the October term of court opens and I acquiesced."

The Bishop's Walk. The late Bishop Sheepshanks once walked from India Into Russia and. curiously, had nothing to tell about his extraordinary Journey. Some time ago it was mentioned in a conversation. The correspondent remarked to him that it must have been a very Interesting experience, and could he tell him anything about it "No. no." he said In his vigorous, casual way, "nothing Interesting. A great deal of open country, quite uncultivated. I was a young man at that time and thought It would be rather a good plan to come back from India that way. I thought I would walk It not often done. Good old English exercise, you know heel and toe." Manchester Guardian.
Largest Gold Nugget. Men have found a mass of native copper weighing 420 tons, and they have discovered a chunk of pure sliver weighing one and one-half tons, but the largest nugget of gold that ha yet been seen weighed only UK) ixninds. And gold seekers are inform-
fi thiit lAr"pr finds in the future .are

The Turk. The Turk practices no trade, engages in no commerce. They have a proverb which says, "The Frank has science, the American commerce, the Osmanli majesty." But, as majesty won't. fill stomachs, those who do not serve as soldiers strive to become functionaries, and the men of the small villages, falling in this, do nothing, and the work of the fields and bouse falls upon the shoulders of the women. One chronicle states that occasionally the man of the house crochets a stocking or minds the baby for a short period.
