A SERMON ON SCHOOL BoSps.


rev. Clark Davis Condemus Apathv of
Parents and fopuiiss Opposition.
Rev. Clark Davis. the pastor of the First
Methodist Protestant church. preached
yesterday morning on the public schools
and school board Of Seattle. He said that
he was ashamed of the people of Seattle
that they would not vote $3.50. 900 bonds To
cover an old debt when they yearly spen.
$4,000 for liquor alone. He was also
ashamed Of the mothers and father. of
Seattle Tor their lethargy in not seeing
that the bonds carried, although many
who voted against them did not know
what they were doing probably. He
praised the school system highly and had
nothing but praise for the teachers and
school board.
He spoke first Of what the directors had
done. OF the tine buildings they had
erected and how 134 teachers were now
employed. all since 1880. The running ex-
penses were sl63, goo year now, but nearly
twice as much went tor drink in the city
every year. Some people said this was ex-
travagence. but it was plainly necessary,
not the wasteful extravagance seen in
many other places For years the board
allowed children to attend school in va
cant rooms In unhealthy parts of the city,
rooms which were condemned by the
health officers, before they erected
new buildings and incurred the debt.
he was surprised to see the
poorer classes, whose children were being
educated without cost 20 them, vote against
the bonds The PopuIists also, he said,
played into the hands OF the rich. for
teachers, If paid in warrants and not in
cash. would have TO dispose of them, and
rich men, who would shave the war
rants. would surely make IL clean shave.
II the bonds had carried there would have
been $3.50. 900 to run the schools this year,
and teachers would have been paid cash
for their warrants.
Mr.. Davis closed by saying that he was
glad religion was kept out OF the Seattle
public schools, and that their instructors
taught children to think, and did not try
to think for them.

Mai. Harlan. deputy collector Of internal
revenue here, does not think the recent
decision of Judge Hanford with reference
to the oleomargerine license law will In
any way affect the trade in artificial butter.
HIS reason for this opinion Is that the
general provisions Of the Las are specific
enough TO force compliance with all the
principal regulations relating 10 the sale
of these produc,s. The regulations made
by the treasury department are chiefly OF
A minor nature. such IS specifying the

forcenisnt Of these regulations saat the

LAST OF LEscHI Park BUNKo MEN.


From reliable source Il IL learned that
J. III. Myers and John Sweeney. the men
who bunkoed Cyrus n. Rogers, of Mojave.
Cal. out of gold watch and SO in money
at Leschi park last August, were killed
not long ago in Iowa by one of their VIC
aims.
1t appears that they picked up an
Italian. and after getting him into their
room introduced n game of cards. When
the Italian found that he had lost his
money he wanted it back. The bunko
men refused to listen to him and then the
trouble began. When the smoke cleared
away Myers and Sweeney were dead and
the Italian held possession. He imme-
diataly gave himself up to the police and
told his story. He was bound over 20 the
superior court for trial, but as near as can
be learned was released on bonds. Il will
be remembered that Myers and Sweeney
skipped out OF this city after having de-
posted SO bonds each

Anace of Giant Cannibals.

Unlikely as it may seem to some who
read these lines, it is a fact neverthe-
less that there is an island in the gulf
of California, not more than go miles
from the Mexican mainland, which Is
inhabited by the remnants of a race OF
giant cannibals. This startling dlscov-
ery was made by west coast natural
ist early in 1891 and has since been
confirmed by both United States and
Mexican explorers. Mr.. Mcnamara
the scientist referred to, has photo
graph of one of the men found by h1m
on the island, that individual, although
not one of the largest, being over feet
in height. The island upon which they
were found is known as the island OF

IN UNHEARD OF OCCURRENCE
Snow and Lightning in the Vicin-
ity of Punahou.

The storm yesterday afternoon
was a most peculiar one, particu-
larly to the residents on the plains.
The rainfall in the vicinity of Pu-
nahou was heavy one as it meas
ured about one inch between the
hours of l and 2 o'clock. At w.
R. Castles residence the rain gauge
registered 149 inches between the
same hours. \ heavy hailstorm
was also experienced. Some OF the
hailstones were as large as good
sized beans, and at times ii small
filmy mass fell which resembled
snowhakes. This is an unheard OF
occurrence in this island and 1t GER
tainly surprised the people who
witnessed it.
Streaks of lightning were com
mon during the afternoon and,
without doubt, it struck in many
places, but it could not be ascer,
tanned last night whether any dam
age had been done.
1t was reported yesterday that al
electric flash had struck a Puma
hou school building, but it proved
to be incorrect.

Accompanying Liberty

Mr.. EDITOR: I've got little
kick and wish to ventilate 1T
through your columns. Quite
lately rented a cottage on Emma
street kokoke Mr.. Dole. My reasons
were a change of climate, scenery
etc. Now, 1 went up there last
night to inspect it prior to moving

telephoned to the station house by
a broken-down hack driver, who
plays the role of a lynx-eyed
guardian of the peace and Emma

loafing, shady, seedy, secret service
spy despatched mounted officer
to my Stronghold of Virtue, asking
for reinforcements, and then, with
ears erect and chest expanded like
a pouter pigeon, the valiant officer
entrenched himself behind poi
barrel in a pake store and prepared
for developments and sudden
death. / assure you, all that fuss
was quite unnecessary and really
uncalled for.

listen to the snortings of the P. G.

companied by a young man decor

ers and wearing an enormous TIN

that this awe-inspiring combina-
ton did not strike terror into

steps in time to see the
ex-hack driver make a break t.
