Committee Has Adopted a Re-
port to That Effect.
The Board of Education Holds a
Called Meeting This Evening to
Act on the Report.
WILL BE BETTER FOR PATRONS

Last night the committee on exami-
nation and course of study Of the
Board Of Education met and decided
that the best plan in the matter of
selecting books to be used in the Pa
ducah schools, was to accept the state
adoption this year and get the benefit
Of the exchange price, which will
amount to a great deal to the parents
who have to buy books. The commit
tee will hand in a report to that effect
tonight at a called meeting Of the
school board. This means a virtual
acknowledgment that there is little
chance TO defeat the new school book
bill
The committee first recommended
that the books used last year be used
sgain, and next year TO accept the
state adoption If such was compul-
sorry, and the board concurred in the
report. Members of the board heard
petitions from residents sgsinst this
saying that the sity would eventually
have TO accept the state adoption snc
II it did not do il this year. no ex
change price could be secured, 30 ,
motion to reconsider was made anc
the board will be called together to
plight to concur in the new report Of
the committee.
The book dealers anticipated that
the board would reconsider when il
was learned that the exchange list
was effective for one year only, and
did not order stock II the board
tonight adopts the report the dealers
will order.

HIT BY CAR
Telephone Man Has Close Call
ina Collision.
His Automobile. Knocked Fifteen
Feet But Escaped Injury in the
Smash Up.

Mr.. J. W. Jewell, "trouble man"
for the Independent Telephone Com
pany, had q narrow escape from seri-
GUS injury and possibly death, late
yesterday afternoon on South Sixth
street.
He was out in his auto blackboard
when he started to cross the car
track. He did not hear an approach
ing car on account Of the noise his
machine was making, and when he
crossed over to the track it was i'm
possible for the motorman to avoid
hitting him. and the car struck the
rubber tire of the vehicle and knocked
it fully fifteen feet, but did not dis
lodge Mr.. Jewell, who stuck to his
seat and was not even bruised, al
though he says he was frightened half
TO death. The blackboard was not
turned over, and while it was consid-
erably damaged, one wheel being en-
tirely demolished, it was repaired and
in use again todsy.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 90
Representative Spalding, of North Da-
kota, is having a hard time to get his
subcommittee together to further con-
slider the bill to revive the County Act
of Hawaii AS the Committee on Ter
ritories will probably have about all it
can do to look after the enactment of
the two franchise bills for Hawaii, little
other Hawaiian legislation is probable at
this session. AS matter of fact the
session will almost surely end by May I,
if present signs can be trusted, and it
may end a week or two earlier than that.
Inere are one or two matters which
may possibly prolong the session. but the
leaders in both branches of Congress
are doing all in their power to side
track business of every kind, except the
appropriation bills.
Both the franchise bills are believed
to have a good show OF becoming law
but all the other Hawaiian measures
now pending will probably be left I'M
acted upon. Mr. Spalding has decided
to abandon his bill to amend the Or
ganic Act of the territory as to the
granting of charters. That bill, as will
be recalled from statements in my let
tiers of some weeks ago, provided for
striking out of section IS of the act
OF April 80, 1000, the words: without
the approval of Congress"
Consul William w Canada, at Vera
Cruz, Mexico, has forwarded statement
to the Department of Commerce and /
Labor, saying that "a number of members
OF the sugar union have requested a
reduction of the import duties on re-
fined sugar from SIS Mexican 5000

AN OLD IDEA
Shown to be Absolutely False by Mod
ern Science.

People used to think that badness
was one of those things which are
handed down from generation to gener-
alton, from father to son--just like a
family heirloom.
Science has shown the falseness Of
this belief by proving that badness
itself is not a constitutional disease,
but the result of a germ invasion Of
which only Herpicide can effectually
rid the scalp.
Washing only cleans the scalp of
Dandruff. it doesn't kill the germs
Destroy the cause and you remove
the effect"
Newbro's Herpicide will do this in
every case. It is also a delightful
dressing.
