4 Metropolitan Millinery
Opening.

Mrs. Keil's recent millinery
opening Was metropolitan affair.
There WINS a magnificent display
OF spring millinery and beautiful
decorations. One show window
was decorated in purple, the other
in automobile rod, both with dis
plays of tho same colors. The ar
tistic touch displayed in every de-
tail Of arrangement as we'll rs in
the productions of millinery COM
binations, WAS the handiwork of
experts. 1t was beyond doubt the
finest millinery opening ever in
the county and Mrs. Keil and
Misses Conway and Black deserve
much praise. Fresh carnations
were given as souvenirs and little
Eunice Keil acted as flower girl.
Among the ladies who visited the
opening, especially on Saturday,
La Junta, Manzanola, Ordway
and Olney we're we'll represented
and by the number OF hat boxes
carried away it was a financial
success.

COURT NO PLACE FOR BOYS

Police Justice Nevin proposes to put
stop to the attendance of young boys ana
young men at the sessions Of the First
Criminal Court The justice claims that
the minds of those who are constantly on
hand are poisoned by the testimony given
by the prisoners and witnesses, He saidr--
The court room Is merely Kinder
garten for persons out of work. They
graduate from the room to the pen and
that end them for life
Justice Neyin noticed more young men
in the audience this morning than usual.
He ordered Policeman Keilt, Of the
Gregory street station and Court officer
McGurk to bring all young men in the
audience inside the rail- About thirty Of
the young fellows were then arraigned
before the desk. Each in turn was given
a severe lecture and they all were order
ed out OF court. Most of the boys said
they were out of work and only wanted
to kill time.
Justice Nevin, after administering his
lecture, promised each ten days In the
County Jail should they again visit the
court room. He said, "You had better all
go out and look for work. It would be
more to your credit than listening TO The
class of testimony given here

! SCHOOL NO. A.
Its Crowded Condition Al
most Unbelievable
"JeWel" Classroom.

Director Birdsall recently made report
to the Board Of Education in which he
set forth facts concerning the overcrowd-
ed condition of No IA School on Union
street The Director stated that there
were two hundred and sixty-two children
in the halliday sessions; that one-half OF
those who attend the evening school
would go in the day time If there were
room enough. and that at least thirty
families had moved from that section be-
cause of the lack of school accommoda-
tions
AS far back as year ago several unsue-
cessful attempts were made by President
Firm of the Board of Education to Sc
cure an addition to the school building.
The city owns lots adjoining the present
structure and the erection of an extern
sion would be simple matter Now
Director Birdsall is taking up the fight for
more school room His efforts in that d.
rection will be watched with interest by
the residents of that section.
An investigation by a"News" reporter of
School No IA brought to light certain
facts regarding the condition of the school
rooms that would hardly be believed on
hearsay. There are desks for 708 pupils
and as many as $40 scholars attend the
sessious. In four classes in the Primary
Department halliday sessions are held.
There are fifteen rooms in the building.
On seats which are not too large for two
pupils, three are crowded for studying
purposes. These seats have been thus
filed for almost three years. The diff
Guilty experienced by the children in at
tempting to pursue their studies, under
these circumstances, is great.
The third grade class. Grammar De-
partment, has a class room that Prin-
cipal Sweeney terms a Jewel This
room was formerly the top platform of
the staircase. The staircase has been
boarded up and the space thus acquired
has been converted into a small stuffy
class room, into which the little children
are crowded day by day. This room is
a disgrace to a school, In other rooms,
on the same floor children sit on front
seats without desks, and others study
their lessons on chairs scattered in vari-
Gus parts of the class rooms.
The building IS perfectly safe. but there
is not nearly room enough for the num-
ber of pupils attending sessions from
that neighborhood. The educational facil-
tiles are anything but modern when conn
pared to the recently erected structures
in other parts Of the city.
The addition to No IA, as proposed by
former President Joseph Firm, provided
for nine class rooms to seat 450 pupils.
This should have been done three
years ago." said Principal Sweeney. He
added that the youngsters and TEACHERS
are badly handicapped, and that some
children could not make satisfactory
progress The principal is hopeful that
the board win give this matter ifnrne-
date attention.

NO cHANsE FOR A FIVE.
Nevin Got Clark Into Trouble Over
Fiza.

Justice Nevin was short of change this
morning. When he fined prisoner 50 he
found he could not change a IS bill, and
exhibited several 500 bills, evidently to
show he was not broke. Detective Clark,
who was close by, volunteered to lend the
Court the necessary 81. His Honor ac-
cepted. Clark was then compelled to wait
until the Court had collected enough in
fines to pay the amount of what Clark
loaned. The 81 handed up by the detective
was all he had.
In the meantime, Captain Kelly, of the
Seventh street station, appeared In the
court room. Justice Nevin asked him If
he could change IS. He said. he could
not, but spotted Bob Murphy in the audi
ence. The Captain took one of the IS bills
from the Courts desk and asked Murphy
to change it. The bill was changed
The Nevin said:-s'Give g to Detective
Clark, as he loaned me 81 this morning"
Placing the So change on the Courts
desk, the Captain put the 81 in his own
pocket and walked out of court, saying
as he went:-"GIark owes me $2 Thanks
Good day"
Detective Clark looked longingly at the
departing Captain as he left the room
with Clarks 81
Later In the day, after Clark had walk
ed around the streets without any money
in his pockets, Captain Kelly met him and
returped the money.

him through a window in a tea store. I
| then grabbed Gately and he gave me a
fight. I was forced to use my club before
he was brought into submission. then
locked Gately up. The others got

James Burns, of Sixth street, and Will
lam Bridge, 81 years old, of Fifth street,
two dangerous persons and ex-convicts,
were found by Special Officer Markey of
the Pennsylvania Railroad lettering about
the Waldo avenue yards late last night.
AS many crimes have been committed in
the yards of late, Markey placed both
men under arrest.
The officer had not gone very far with
his prisoners, when Bridge pulled out a
revolver and threatened to shoot Markey.
Markey wrenched the weapon from
Bridges hand and held it to the man S
head until Policeman Hawkins of the
Gregory street station arrived and took
charge of the prisoners.
The men were arraigned in the First
Criminal Court before Justice Nevin, this
morning. Bridge denied having threaten
ed Markey's life. He said
when I pulled my revolver, Markey

BICYCLE FIENDS OUT.
Not Even the Gale Kept Them
off the Boulevard Yes
terday.

Nothing less than a blizzard can damp
the ardor of the true bicycle fend. The
wind blew a gale along the Boulevard yes
terday. but number of cyclists of both
sexes were out just the same. Their faces
were blue with the cold but they pedalled
along trying to look Indifferent and as If
they enjoyed it.
The bicycle cop" who is usually on the
alert for scoarches, sought the shelter of
friendly fences and buildings as protec-
ton from the keen wind which playfully
stirred up clouds Of sand and the Boule-
ward dressing.
But for the few cyclists the road was
deserted The pedestrians are not imper-
vious to the cold like the hardened cyclist
and they were content to sit before the
fires in their respective homes and talk of
the pleasures of the past simmer.
The rush season of the bicycle repair
man Is over, and he has now ample op-
portunity to count over his profits of the
past season. Signs reading Bicycle doc
tor and ssBikes repaired while you wait, =
no longer attract the gaze of the cyclist.
They have been taken down for the win
ter, but they will do duty again in the
spring.
The many hotelkeepers along the line
look sad, but brighten up when they think
of the snow storms to come and the
Sleighing to follow.
