OPENING SCHOOL HOUR.
SAYS PRESENT PRACTICE is THE BEST.


me proposition to change the hour
OF opening the public schools from $3.50
to O'Clock a. m. has struck n snag.
me salt Lake Medical society. backed
by public opinion, as cleaned by mem
hers of the organization, has resolved
against 1t and viii report to the board
OF education accordingly.
The petition for the change came
through the teachers and come of the
patrons Of the Hamilton school, who
set forth that $3.50 was not as nd-
Nantageous to health and progress as
an opening hour as O'clock; chat the
pupils gather on the school grounds at
the earlier hour and consequently
waste the best thirty minutes of the
day; that the afternoon hour for clos
ing-}:i0 y, m.-does not give pupils
sufficient time for the outdoor ex-
erclse necessary for the preservation of
health and the accumulation of ener-
gy;" that for that reason school should
also close thirty minutes earlier than is
now the custom.
This request was referred to the
committee on teachers and school work
where it has been under investigation
luT some Tune. 10 many persons the
petition has seemed inconsistent and
extraordinary, and no little fear has
been expressed that II might be grant
ed Among those who have enter
tanned this fear are members OF the
Salt Lake Medical society, who took
the question up and gave 1t a vigorous
discussion at their last meeting. The
contentious OF the Hamilton school
people were strongly detained against
and held to be untenable. Opposition
was unanimous. II being urged that
granting of the request would be both
expensive and acknowledgements in
that parents of pupils would have to
rise earlier in the morning, causing an
Increase in the consumption of fuel
and light. and unhygenic In that pupils
would not have the necessary time to
prepare for school, eat their breakfasts
and be In their class rooms when the
gong sounds. These and other rea-
sons will be presented by the Medical
society to the board of education at
Its meeting tomorrow night
In this connection 1t may not be in
appropriate to state that In the earlier
times of the present school system that
o'clock was the regular hour for
opening but that 1t was changed to
$3.50 for the very reasons now urged
by the Medical society. The change
met with popular approval at the time
It was made and IL Is not considered
| likely that the board will go buck to
| old conditions now.

court opened this morning for the con-
tinuation of the trial of Sheriff Martin
and his deputies for the shooting of the
strikers at Iattimer, Sheriff Martins
REORGANIZATION was resumed by

hand in the matter as plain James
Martin and not as the sheriff Of Luz
zerne county"
The defense endeavored to have the
sheriff testify that he was unable to
suppress the riot and disorder that eX-
listed in the region and that the civil
authorities were unable to cope with II
and had telegraphed to the governor of
PENNSYLVANIA for aid, and that Conse-
auently the governor ordered out the
state militia on the night OF Sept. 10,
The commonwealth objected 10 this line
of testimony and Judge Woodward sus-
tanned the objection.
Samuel Price, n contractor and COM
mission merchant of Hazelton. testified
that he was Sheriff Martins chief
deputy at the time of the shooting. He
told OF the sheriff giving all the depu-
ties explicit orders to keep cool. protect
all property and maintain the peace.
He also told them they We're not to
shoot unless for self-protection.

There is no harbor at Brito. There IL

interesting compromise for the situa-
tion has been suggested. II would con-
struct two dams, one at La Flor and
one at n point Just west Of the divide
some miles east of La Flor. The
eastern dam would be on higher ground
and about forty feet high. BY this
compromise two basins would be Gre
ated instead of one and the La Flor
dam would become a much less formid-
able undertaking. The tax upon It's
