CURFEW
TO RING
BoysUnder Fifteen
Must Retire
Early.

The next step in the Tightening ur
OF police enforcement of the existing
territorial statutes will be taken today
: when, following orders given by High
Sheriff Henry last night. the police
will begin thu. strict enforcement of the
curfew law. This law was placed up
become something of a dead letter.
Yesterdays order means that children
under fifteen are to be kept off the
streets at night. Curfew laws are now
of the States, much work in this direc-
tion having been accomplished by a
national association of men and women
interested in the alleviation of social
conditions which has made a vigorous
canvass throughout the world for the
establishment of curfew laws.
The law in this Territory is consid-
erably more lenient than that enforced
in many coast cities where the age
often runs from sixteen to eighteen and
the hours begin as early as half past
eight in the evening. The authorities
here consider that it is for the best
interests of the children that they be
kept off the streets at night unless ac-
companied by proper escorts and it is
probable that they will be backed up
by most of the community.
Following Is the full text of the cur
few law as il stands at present:
''Sec. 4os Any child under fifteen
years of age, who. except in case Of
necessity, shall go or remain on any
public street or highway after nine
O'clock in the evening and before four
O'Clock in the morning, unaccompanied
by an adult person shall be punished
by a fine of not more than five dollars
or by imprisonment not exceeding
fourteen days.
Sec. 407. Any parent or guardian
having the care, custody and control
of child under fifteen years of age.
who, except in case of necessity, shall
knowingly and voluntarily suffer or
permit such child to go or remain ON
any public street or highway, after
nine o'clock in the evening and before
four o'clock in the morning, unaccom-
panied by an adult person, shall be !
punished by fine os not more than ten
dollars or by imprisonment not exceed
ing twenty days"

cient width of roadway on the natural
ledge.
About one hundred feet from this
structure, there is another of similar
! type, though of only some % TT. span
which should at some future time be
REPLACED by a concrete arch.''
Mr.. Howland and myself have thor
oughly discussed this matter, and both
agree with Mr.. Smith that it will be
much more permanent job to make an
additional cut on the side hill so that
the entire roadway will be on solid
footing. This will involve an expendi-
ture of possibly Sc, 9,0O0--although as soon
as have had an estimate made of
the total yardage, I will be in a bet
ter position to figure on the expense.
For the present have decided to have
wooden uprights placed under the
beams where same are Joined together,
as shown on the blue print. These
posts will be carried up from the solid
footing of rock about 40 feet below
the floor level of the bridge. While /
do not believe that there is any iInme-
diate danger of the bridge giving way,
most everyone crossing the Pail reports
that the structure does not look SAFE
and the uprights when placed in posi-
ton will make the bridge appear more
secure.
should like if possible to ask the
next Legislature for sufficient appro-
priatton to make the cut and do away
entirely with this bridge, also to build
in concrete arch as suggested by Mr..
Smith.
I beg to remain,
Yours respectfully.

The finding touches first upon the cause
Of the fire. 1t laid the origin of the fire
to foodlight situated on the right hand
of the stage facing the auditorium, from
the heat of which 4 grand drapery was

portions of the building ordinances apply
ing to fire alarm boxes, fire apparatus,
hampers and fiues on and over the stage,
fireproof scenery and woodwork, exit

go fenced, and Dies, All in One Hour.
A London jury Tuesday doomed Whit
aker Wright TO seven years in prison
but higher court changed the verdict.
An hour after his conviction the man
who ranked with the Humberts as the
prince of twentieth century swindlers
was dead-he had cheated the cell and
the grave was his lot. Heart disease,
which attacked him, probably as a result
of the excitement incident to the ending
of the trial, was the cause of death.
Some said he had committed suicide
Early in the day justice spoke its
word and decreed that Wright must
suffer for fraud through which the Brit
ish public lost more than 100000, 400.
After twelve-day trial the jury in the
Kings bench division of the high court
of justice found Wright guilty on all
the counts and he was sentenced to seven
years penal servitude.
Wright fed from England about a
year ago after the great London and
Globe Finance scandal had become pub
lie. March ID he was arrested in New
York as he left the French liner Lor
raine with his niece. He spent his time
i'll the Ludlow street Jail until his extra
dition. At first he was willing to &C
back without papers and gave out long
interviews, declaring he was honest and
deeply wronged. his misfortunes and
those of the people high and low who
trusted him being attributable to the
treachery of others. But hard fight
was made before Wright finally returned
to England.

We're chatting in a shipbrokr's office

turned on the names given to coasting
schconers, and one old captain, who
has sailed up and down the coast for
many years, said:
1T seems to me that some Of the
owners know as little about naming
vessel as they do about sailing her.
The names that some vessels carry are
very inappropriate.
There used to be schooner called
name for that vessel. She was any
thing but bonanza to anyone who
owned her. Why, in just three months
she was sold four times for debt, and
she never paid her way as long as she
lasted.
There was another schooner, / re-
member, called the Hard Luck, and she
proved to be regular gold mine to her
owner and never had a bit of hard luck
during her career.
