UTH PHIU. POLICE QUIT OLD OUTERS nree Stations Long Noted Outposts in Crime Centres "Deserted RHODE ISLAND RED IS FAVORITE FOWL Fanciers and Farmers Find These Birds Both Beautiful and Profitable to Rear OUSTER OF BUTLER BY IM POSSIBLE Director's Supporters Ignore State 'Law'- in Denying Legal Grounds ACTIVITIES OF DAY lij REAL ESTATE City Takes Title to Disston Water Company's Property for $854,610 clause authorizing the Mayor to oust an official he has appointed. Tenure of Office They also cited the fact that the first paragraph in the section having to do with the Department of Public Safety sets forth that the Director of Public Safety "shall hold office during the term for which the Mayor appointing him was elected, and until "his successor is appointed and qualified." This excerpt is from Section 1 of Article of the new charter. None of Butler's supporters who proclaimed his immunity from removal at the hands of the Mayor was cognizant of the existence of provision in the State for the ousting of any appointed official by his chief. Oblivious of the State Constitution clause covering the question of an appointed official's removal, the Butlr supporters last week cited the following provision in the City Charter as containing what in their minds was the only possible article on which Butter's summary dismissal could be based: "Municipal officers shall be liable to impeachment, suspension and removal from office, for any corrupt act or practice, malfeasance, mismanagement, mental incapacity or incompetencv for the proper performance of official duties extortion, receiving any gift or present from any contractor or from any person seeking or engaged in anv work for, or furnishing material to, the city, or from any incumbent or occupant of, or candidate or applicant for, any -municipal office, and for wilfully concealing any fraud committed against the city." None of the specific demerits or crimes specified in this section of the charter could be applied against General Butler, the latter's sympathizers held.

But the State Constitution clause oa the subject establishes clearly that any appointive office in Pennsylvania is one w-hose tenure depends exclusively on the pleasure of the official who makes the appointment and that Mavor Kendrick can "fire" General Butler. portant part in their breeding. Color is varying in the Rhode Island Red when no attention is given to the mating, and the average farm flocks are noticeable for their mauy and various shades of red. When dark plumaged birds are matci to those of extreme colors, it but follows that an indiscriminate amount of shades and colors is the result. Carefully plan your matings for color in the Rhode Island Red and strive for.

uniformity in color that goes with the fowl. While the color of the Rhode Island is of Mich importance to the breed, shape and other qualities should not be totally ignored. In shape the body is deep, long and straight, with breadth that features the oblong appearance. The fluff should be close feathered and full. Breast deep and well rounded.

The back is long and broad. It is not difficult to account for the popularity of the Rhode Island Red when so many good qualities may be attributed to them. The combination "oi these qualities has forced tbe Rhode Island Red to the front as -a general purpose fowl, both for egg producing and market fowls. From a fancier's standpoint it Is a self-evident fact that the Rhode Island Red is in high favor if we are to judge by the large classes in the show room throughout the country. The breeders of the Rhode Island Reds are many, and their enthusiasm is never lacking for the breed as the seasons come and the seasons go.

Cleansing operations each day fail to remove the dank, musty, unbearable stench. It is the odor of many years' decay, and demolition alone can eliminate it, police officials Agree. The old Twenty-fiftfi District Station House, at Mojamensing avenue and Dickinson streets, has hcen many times condemned as unsuitable for police purposes. Its walls are cracked, and 'the second floor, containing the cots of policemen assigned to the "dog watch." is so cold in winter and damp and chiliy in summer that its occupants experience difficulty in "learning to sleep" in it, as they put it. Many Glad to Quit Place Fearc that it may collapse have been expressed by the bluecoats whose official home it has been, and many of these have expressed pleasure over the order for its abandonment.

But there are others to whom it has been Outstanding among these is Sergeant William Hayes, a veteran of many years' service, and to him his enforced removal to another station house is "heartbreaking." he says.

It appears that the original blood of the Rhode Island Red was an admixture of that of the Asiatic, Mediterraneans, Games, as well as a portion of the ordinary fowls common to that section of the country. The principal characteristics of the Rhode Island Reds are its rich, brilliant red surface color, the oblong shape and compact form. Rhode Island Reds weigh at maturity: Cocks, eight and one-half pounds; hens, six and one-half pounds; cockerels, seven and one-half pounds, and pullets, five pounds. The plumage color of the Rhode Island and male is on the surface a rich, brilliant red, except where the black is found in the wing and tail. Naturally the- red is slightly accentuated on the back and wing-bows.

but. of course, the evener the ehade of color throughout the body plumage, the better. The female of the Rhode Island Reds shows the same evenness of color as the male, and black should not show in the wings of either the male or female. "When breeding the Rhode Island lied, the greatest drawback) centres around the proper shade of surface color, in combination with its undercolor. In mating select those birds of the richest and most brilliant color, the color that is recognizable in the Rhode Island Red, and which plays such im PARCEL POST Three-story Building at 1624 Chestnut Street Twice Changes Hands The city of Philadelphia yesterday took title from the Disston "Water Company to the Disston Water "Works at Sandy Eun Creek and Pennypaek Park, the consideration being The sale included transfer of all property and the franchise of the company.

PARCEL POST PARCEL POST City Charter, However, Makes No 'Provision for Summary Dismissal Can a Mayor of a first-class city in Pennsylvania summarily oust a cabinet official be has appointed, or must he retain him throughout his four-year administration This question arose last week out of that or near-controver-sv.

that developed over the issue of whether Mayor Kendrick is to keep Director of Public Safety Butler here throughout his administration, which has almost three and one-half years to run, or to "fire" him at the end of the current year. General Butler's friends and supporters contend that the Mayor is without discretionary power in the matter, and must retain Director Butler, or any other department head appointed by him, throughout his tenure of office. The new city charter, which came into being June 25. 1910, seems to support the claim of General Butler's friends. There- is nothing in the new-charter tending to invest the Mayor with authority to oust a cabinet member he has appointed, except where specific charges of dishonesty, corruption, graft, mental incapacity, neglect of duty or incompetency are Butler Held Invulnerable Butler's friends stressed the fact that the Mayor could cite none of these things as a basis for ousting the director.

But the constitution of Pennsylvania clearly and definitely sets forth that any appointed city, county or borough official in this State may be dismissed "at the pleasure of his chief." Under this clause, Mayor Kendrick may oust General Butler, or any other city official he has appointed, in a manner which, if not summary, closely approximates it. Two excerpts from one of the volumes oh the State Constitution by Thomas Raeburn White, noted Philadelphia lawyer and authority on legal questions, clearly indicate that Mayor Kendrick has the power to dismiss Butler with a wave of his hand. "Appointed officers other than judges of the courts of record and the Superintendent of Public Instruction-may be removed at the pleasure of the power by which they shall have been appointed." one clause in the section on appointive offices reads. This excerpt establishes question the fact that General Butler's tenure of office rests definitely with Mayor Kendrick. Another Clarifying Clause In the same article is embodied another clause, intended to clarify the question of the scope and applicability of the State Constitution as effecting appointed county, city and borough officials.

It reads: "The words of the constitution are sufficiently broad to include officers of any kind, whether State, county, city or borough officers." In 1S82, the same article sets forth, a collector of delinquent taxes here was ousted by the then Mayor, who had appointed him. Butler supporters last week had cited the contents of the new city charter as a basis for their claim that the director would be secure in his post until the end of the Kendrick administration. They pointed out that the City Charter of 1919, amending the provisions of the Bullitt bill of 18S5 (which had given the Mayors of first-class cities summary powers of dismissal) contained no PARCEL POST H3 .50 A GENUINE $50 VALUE FOR 3 Pairs For $40 8 POWER BINOCULAR Tills ia your FIRST and LAST OPPORTrNITY to seenre a pair of these vorld-f araed BINOCULARS at this ridioulouKl.r low price.

PARCEL POST aCrnlprtaWc BC 1 A Handsome, Massive -llil Sf Veteran Sergeant Tells of Rattle Days in Old District fill official character, three Philadelphia Tolice stations tha have for years stood in the ot' crime anl law defiance have begun the journey toward demolition and obscurity. With a wave of his hand Director Butler ha ordered them abandoned in connection with his police redisricting plan. From a standpoint of police ei-rlciency and economy, elimination of the three old station houses is senerally regard as a wise and -justified move, but from the perspective of historical and sentimental association, their abandonment is tinged with pathos, particularly from a score of veteran bluecoats who for a generation have called them "home." They are the old Third district station bonee.

at Third and Delancey streets; the Second district headquarters, tt Second and Christian streets, and the Twenty-fifth district station -house njt Moyamensins avenue and Dickinson street. 1 Closed for Good "With the removal of a store of contraband liquor from the Third district beadquarters last Monday afternoon r.nd the transfer of the books and equipment, several days earlier, the old red brick station house closed its official existence. Although many a gun has spat and razor flicked through the air to terrify the neighborhood and summon police from the old Third district station to uell a disturbance or battle with some murderer, it was the election riots of 1017 that made the district famous. It covers part of the Fifth ward, and war swept the "Bloody Fifth" in -kving death, terror and hatred in its wake. Police of the ThiwT district wee called to cope with the attempt of unscrupulous politicians to control the primary vote by force.

The end of the miniature revolution showed casualties of one man killed, nfty wounded. JOOO terrorized rnd the population of the city dtojeusted. But the Fifth ward had borne its Bobrionet of the "Bloody Fifth" thirty vears' before that day ot gun play, and the Third district was the oasis ot law and order there for longer than that. Another of the old stations, now echoing the footsteps of a lone watchman, had an even larger record of crime. This was the Second district, at Second and Christian streets.

Old Scond Had Record The -old Second has for years stood third in the number of arrests every month, topped only by the Sixth and Eighth, at Eleventh and Winter streets and Tenth and Buttonwood streets respectively But the arrests at the two latter districts have involved in the main drunks and "tmall-time criminals. The Second district held the record for the greatest number of important arrests each month. It averaged SOO a month, and of these 60 per cent, were case-hardened, much-sought violators of the law. Jerry Sullivan, the white-haired veteran for twenty rears filled the role of turnkey at the "old Second, throws an interesting sidelight on the character of offenses originating in sections of the district. 'This is the toughest section of the "town from the standpoint of disturbances of all kinds requiring police intervention." said Sullivan, "from Delaware avenue to Third street foreigners threw milk bottles at one another.

From Third street to Sixth they fought with their fists and feet; from Sixth to Eleventh they soot one another, while from Eleventh street to Broad they used to stage razor parties several times a weeks. 'I remember when a gang of blacr-banders started a scrap in a bakery shop at Ninth and Christian streets, and before the smoke died away there -were four lying dead on the floor and three more "sprawled along the hallway. Pistol Duel Last Fray The last bit of crime here was when Detective Trueman Swain and that Moatello man were shot in a feud at Seventh and Christian streets last month. It never' stop6. Pistols will spit forth here a dozen years from now; unless Eome great transition takes place.

"This old stationhoiisje used to be Southwark Commitisioners' lift 11. where the governors of the area east of Sixth street met. The old clock up on the tower ceased to tell time long before any such thing as daylight saving was beard of." T- old clock to which Sullivan referred is set in the red brick walls of the tower surmounting the district station, and once was the "City Hall clock" of South Philadelphia. Its hand3 remain at 7.30. Its face is dirpty and covered with cobwebs.

Inside the building there is a stone shield bearing the date 1833 and naming Samuel C. King as Mayor and Samuel Given as chief of police. The building, however, was ere. -ted in 1811.
