When We advertised that we would
commence and remodel our store the
early part OF June. some people thought
it was only q hoax aud that it was a
scheme to induce them to our place of
business. But when they cnme and
found that the prices We advertised
were not idle imaginings, but we're
solid facts, that they could purchase
clothing from MS at almost hnlf what
they would have TO pay elsewhere, they
were then convinced that all We adver-
tized was true to the letter. We've ar.
ranged with the builders SO that we can
remain in the store while the remodel.

OF III spring and summer stock will

THE FOURTH WARD SCHOOLS
A Real Estate Firm Claims
Unfair Treatment
1T is BLUM VERSUS WHITNEY
Director Pitman Arrives From Catalina
Island
He Refuses to Discuss the Probable Action
of the Teachers Committee Regarding
the Teacher Of French

The matter of school sites in the Fourth
and Fifth wards is still IN very much of
an unsettled condition. The location
selected for the proposed school building at
the corner of Eigh teenth street and Union
avenue will be subject of some dispute
when the council meets in committee OF
the whole tomorrow afternoon. Calkins
& Clapp. the real estate agents, have filed
a written protest against the purchase of
this property, alleging that it is several
blocks outside the limits prescribed in
the published advertisements calling for
bids, while the lot which they nave
offered to the city, located at Sixteenth
and Bush streets, is in the official limits.
The Calkins & Clapp property was offered
at $500. which is 5000 less than the
price paid for the Eighteenth and Union
avenue location. The lots ave al
legged to be identical as to size, the Calk-
ns.Clapp lot being, however. corner prop
erty, while the lot accepted is claimed to
be inside property.
The teachers committee of the boaid of
education is busy considering the peda-
gogic assignment for the coming school
year. Professor Pierce Of the normal
school was in consultation with the COM
mittee yesterday for the purpose of AS
sisting in the selection Of the suboIdi-
mates in his department. The complete
list will be made public at the next regu-
lar meeting of the board.
Director Pitman of the teachers COM
mittee declined TO discuss the Blum
Whitney controversy yesterday. He had
just arrived from Catalina island, to
which resort he will return today. Mr..
Pitman stateu that the committee has
as yet not discussed the matter.
Director Grubb is in favor of permitting
RABBI Blum to teach French in the high
school for a period of half the new school
year, after which time, if he is found to
be incompetent, to drop DR.. Blum and ap-
point someone else. Mr.. Grubb says that
Rabbi Blum s contract is signed and he
cannot see that anything else excepting
to give him an opportunity to carry out
its provisions is now left to be done.

ENGINEER LIE COUNT FINED
He Is Assessed for Dereliction Of
Duty
Before the Board of Fire Com.
missloners

At the regular weekly meeting Of the
board of fire commissioners held yester-
day the chief reported favorably upon the
application OF Bertrand Barthe to be al
lowed to operate a gasoline engine upon
the public streets, and the same was
granted.
The chief reported the regular mohthly
inspection of the fire hydrants throughout
the city on July "a and that list of ny
drants needing repairs had been submit
ted to the water company.
Engineer lie Count of No. 3 company
was before the board charged with violat-
ing the rules of the department in not
having his subordinates thoroughly hitch
up daily. lie Counts defense was that the
rule had always been more honored in the
breach than in the observance. Commits
sioner Grider suggested that a copy of the
rules and regulations be sent to every
member of the department.. Mr.. Grider
moved that LIE Count be fined $40, which
motion was seconded by Com missioner
Vetter. Commissioner kuhrts thought
the punishment too heavy for the offense
and defenued lie Count as an excellent
fireman and good citizen. The vote upon
the matter resulted in tie. Commits
kuhrts. The mayor wanted a unanimous
vote, but neither side hedged, and then
his honor cast the deciding vote for the
fine. Commissioner Vetter moved re-
consideration of the vote which one week
ago assessed drivers Brown and Jeffrles
$40 each for the same offense. the object
being to reassess the fines of the drivers
at IS each. The mayor objected to this
latter move. Commissioner kuhrts was
willing to compromise upon 70 for each of
the three men punished. The matter was
allowed to drop at the point originally
agreed upon.
Fines in the sum of $40 reported col
lected by the chief against delinquent
tremen, were ordered deposited in the
department relief fund.
\ The application of E. Dorm for position
as engineer in the department was filed.
The demands tor the week were ordered
paid and the acquisitions approved.
The chief called attention to the defec
tive fire hydrants in the vicinity of the
court house. The chief thought hydrants
ought to be placed on the corner OF Tenn
pie and New High. Broadway and Frank
lin, Franklin and New High streets, and
also in the vicinity of the county hos
pital. The chief was instruced TO place
the matter before the board of supervisors.
Before adjournment Commissioner Vet
ter introduced the following, which was
unanimously adpoted:
Resolved, That the board OF fire COM
missioners of Los Angeles. CAL, learns
with sincere regret of the death of the
wife of Walter +. Parker, clerk of the
board. and in his great bereavement ten
ders him heartfelt sympathy.
Resolved, That II copy OF these resolu.
tions be enrolled on the minutes OF the

What Was Done by Justice Owens Yes
terday
George Morris and W. Spinette, two
little newsboys, were before Justice Owens
yesterday to answer to a charge OF bat
terry. 1t seems that Spnette is recent
recruit TO the ranks of newsboys, and
when he appeAred with his papers at the
corner of First and Spring streets Tues
day afternoon he was given warm re-
ception. The sharp eyed urchins noticed
that he was not up to the latest and most
approved wrinkle of the biz and began
Spinette, "hayseed, country Jake"
spinach" and score OF other names,
which conveyed to him that he was not
yet onto the ways of the city. Spinette
took all OF the gibes like patient little
martyr, but when one of the boys, young
Morris, attacked him. .forebearance ceased
to be numbered among his virtues. and
he proceeded to give Morris good whip
ping.
Officer Mckenzie happened to come up
about this time and marched the two
combatants to the police station, where
they were locked up.
After hearing the evidence Justice
Owens discharged Spinette and fined Nor
ris $40 or ten days.
Lon Brecker was fined 50 for cruelty to
animals. having plead guilty. He was
arrested by Humane Officer Hutchins for
turning loose an old, decrepit horse TO
die. The city was nut to an expense of
$4.95 to bury the animal, and as there
was a clear case against Brecker be con-
sideIed himself just 81 95 to the goou.
Guy Walker, the newsboy who hit Of
fcer Matuszkiewiz with q piece OF melon
and otherwise misbehaved, was fined IS
or five days, commitment being suspend
ed during good behavior.
The examination of Harry O'Neill an d
j. II. Webb, the two footpads who held
up Wallace McCollum last week, was
continued until tomorrow at 2:30 p. m.
Jennie Riley will be examined the same
AFTERNOON for an assault with a deadly
weapon.
+. r. Den, one OF the nephews and ad-
ministrators of the estate of the late Dr.
X. S. Den. was tried on a charge of OBJ
structing the sidewalk. He was on Main
street near the corner OF First. Tuesday
night, when Officer Matuszkie wiz ordered
him to move along. Den did go, but
probably telt indignant and went back.
A second time he was requested to move.
and then be engaged in an argument
with the officer, which resulted in the
latter arresting him. R. l.. del Vale
represented Mr.. Den.
