CRITICISES PRESIDENT
WOMAN ARRESTED WHILE DIS
TRIBUTING PAMPHLETS.

The presence of young woman and two
small boys in front of st. Johns Church,
10th and H streets, yesterday morning, dis
tributing pamphlets, was something so
much out of the ordinarily quiet observance
of Sunday that the police were appealed to
for the purpose of having the trio ordered
away. Sergeant Harrison of the White
House squad responded and placed the wo-
man under arrest. The boys away
when they saw the officer approach from
the park. The young woman, who was neat
ly dressed and showed evidences of edu-
cation and refinement, said her name was
Nadage Doree, and handed the sergeant one
of her pamphlets to give him an idea of her
mission to the city,
The headline of the pamphlet Is Read
Jesus Christianity by Jewess." 1t goes
on to say that President Roosevelt and the
American people have had their eyes blinded
to the condition OF the Hebrews IN Russia,
and contains an urgent appeal for aid for
these unfortunate people. Jesus Chris
tia Eity is a book she claims to have writ
ten, setting forth the treatment of the He
brewS in Russia
One sentence of the pamphlet is:
why is President Roosevelt cheerfully
blind to inconveHient facts?"
Wants Americas Aid.
Miss Doree said that she has been spend
ing most of her time recently trying to en-
list the sympathy and aid of Americans for
her cause. Most of her time is spent In
New York. she says, but she spent the
summer in New Orleans and left there
short time ago to call upon President
Roosevelt at Oyster Bay. Her object in
calling upon the President, she said, was to
give him a copy of her book and make an
earnest effort to get his aid in the matter
of assisting the prosecuted Hebrews in Rus
STA.
Sergt. Harrison concluded that the wo-
man fanatic upon that question and
thought 1t best to take her to place where
the police surgeons might question her and
pass upon her mental condition. With this
object in view the sergeant had her sent to
the house of detention, where she was ex-
amned by the police, surgeons.
They reported that they found no evidence
of insanity and the woman will be advised
by the police to return to New York. Miss
sDoree, she gives her name, said she
not surprised at her arrest, she had
thought she would be looked upon being
insane.

ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL

DECEMBER.
Tax PAYMENTS Which Come In at That
Time May Run the State
Until April.

Present prospects indicate that IT
will be necessary about the first OF
next month for the state to sell an
other issue of bonds to the permanent
school fund in order to keep the gen.
eral fund on a cash basis.
If these indications are carried out
it is also practically certain that all
the money in the permanent school
fund at that time will be required to
purchase the issue This will leave
the permanent school fund without
money for investment in school dis
trict, county or municipal bonds for
some months to come and create
condition that has not existed in this
state before for many years.

900, or 100000 more than it was on
November 1, 1904.
The state in September issued
5000 900 in bonds, which were sold
to the school fund. The rapid deple-
ton of the general fund in spite of
this issue is due to the fact that the
running expenses of the state average
about 100000, while the receipts in
September and October which are
light months, average about $4,000. In
addition to the general running ex-
penses, the payments on the various
new buildings authorized at the state
institutions by the last legislature, are

THOMAS DOLBY, A CONVICT AT
THE PEN, IN A SERIOUS PRE-.
DICAMENT.
Fey Struck by Bullet From His Re-
voIver Dies at his Home in Seat
tie Yesterday.

In addition to the 10-year sentence
that Thomas Daley, a convict at the
state penitentiary, is serving, he may
be tried on a charge of murder prefer
red by the King county authorities
for the killing of little 14-year-old
George Gemmel. Daley was arrested
at Seattle about two weeks ago, after
the convict had made a desperate at
tempt to hold up grocery store,
and after he had engaged in a deadly
pistol duel with a constable who
was shot through the head. Young
Gemmel, who was standing on the
street, was struck by a bullet from
Daley's gun. At first it was thought
young Gemmers wound was not Sc
rious, but complications developed and
he died at his home in Seattle yes
terday.
Daley entered a plea of guilty to
a charge of robbery, and with his
partner, who was also mixed up in
the holdup, was sentenced to 10 years
in the state prison. 1t is quite likely
that in addition to his robbery SEN
tence Daley will have to stand trial
on charge of murder, as it can un-
doubtedly be proven that the bullet
which struck the boy was from
Daley's revolver.

VAST INCREASE IN LAND VALUES

which completed the irrigation canal and sold

now selling at $500 to $500 per acre. About
400 acres are embraced in the garden section.

Some of the warrants paid this month
were issued last month and there are
still $36,3S6 in warrants that have

sented. The true expenses for Octo-

September. If the expenses are as
heavy this month as last and there
is little reason to expect the INTO be
lighter, there will be about $4,000 yet
to issue.

HYDE WILL YIELD.
Deposed Equitable Official Has Change
of Heart, Will Testify.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-James Hazen
Hyde has finally decided to face the
insurance investigators. Through his
personal attorney, Samuel Untermeyer,
it is announced that Mr. Hyde will be
here in day or two, prepared to ac
cept a subpoena from the Legislative
committee. He is expected in the city
not later than Wednesday, and it is
understood he will go before the COM
nittee and make a clean breast of
everything.
Mr.. Hyde has been visiting friends
in and near Boston recently. 1t is said
that ne has experienced a complete
change of heart so far as the legisla-
tive investigation is concerned.
One of the paramount questions
that will be put to Mr.. Hyde will con-
Germ the now famous yellow dog
fund of $6S5,OOO. Members Of the
committee are rejoicing over the an
nOuncement that Mr.. Hyde is coming
home to face the music and throw
light on this question, as we'll as many
more of a kindred nature.
Mr.. Hyde will get the warmest well
come ne has ever had when he ap-
pears before the community. Incl
dentally the members hope that his
change of heart may have a beneficial
effect an Thomas D. Jordan and Will
of Mr.. Hyde before them, these for
mer officers of the Equitable, the
committee think, may decide to repent
and return to the jurisdiction of the
legislative court.

peen issued tHdI nave not Deen pre-
sented. The true expenses for Octo-
Der So far have been $SS,779.62, rep
resenting the amount in general fund
warrants issued since the 3Oth of
September. If the expenses are as
heavy this month as last and there
is little reason to expect the INTO be
lighter, there will be about s32, 1000 vet
to issue.
Little Cash on Hand.
The actual cash on hand, in the
general fund is $47,356.34, but with the
warrants outstanding, the true bal
ance is reduced to $10,s7s. Even with
prospective receipts of $4,000 before
the end of the month it is apparent
that the fund on November / will be
on the ragged edge of depletion with
the heavy issue of warrants on the
first of the month to meet.
If the state were to require money
for the general fund today it could
secure only $71,S53 from the perma-
nent school fund for investment in the
issue of bonds. The permanent school
fund is more nearly all invested now
than at any time for several years. 1t
has an actual cash balance of $S4,S53,
but the board of state land commits
sioners has contracted to purchase
school district bonds to the amount
of $4,000, which will come in in few
days. The receipts to the permanent
school fund for October may bring the
total to 100000.
With the general fund practically
exhausted on November 1, prospective
receipts for November about $4,000
and prospective expenditures for No
vember $4,000, it is apparent that
all the money the permanent school
fund can furnish will be required to
run the state until December 1.
No Money to Redeem Before Msy.
AS stated above, large tax payments
come in in December. These repre-
and the payments are not so large as
in the first half, as many taxpayers
pay up the whole year in March. In
the last two years the state has not
found it possible to pay off any bonds
out of the December tax money. The
bond payments are generally made in
May. The March tax paymnts reach
the state treasurer in April and are
available for bond payments in May.
Bonds sold totthe permanent school
fund may be redeemed at any time at
the option of the state. They draw
31A per cent interest.
1t is possible that the end of the
year tax payments will run the state
until April without further borrowing,
but there are the large appropriations
of the last legislature to count on.
These appropriations exceeded the
appropriations of the preceding legis-
lature 100000, and more than half of
this excess will be expended during
the first year following the session on
account of the heavy appropriations
for state buildings.
There is, therefore, a possibility and
even a probability that the state will
have to make further reouiSitiOnS on
the school fund, which increases at
about $4,000 per month, before the
April receipts are available, so it IS
apparent that school districts and mu-
inequalities that are looking for bond
purchases cannot expect with any de-
gree of certainty to receive bids from
the state for at least six months.

 It is interesting to. note that totem ism is found, not only in Alaska; put among the North American Indians inc a6origines of Australia. the Hot tentots of Africa and even the hill fribes of India. Totems are also com mon among the Samoans.
 BroadIv. the totem Is the badge of a clan or tribe; but 1t signifies a great deal more than mere political or social alliance, It is not only tribal sn- merely a symbol of nationality, but also an expression of religion; not simply a bond of union among primi. tive peoples, but also a regulator of the the marriage laws and of other social institutions. says a writer in The June Housekeeper. A totem has been de- fined as "a class of material objects which "a savage regards with supeesti- exists between him and every member of the class an intimate and special re-

DoInestic Tragedy.

They were all to have a Sunday night supper at friends house, and even the boarding mistress was invited; so the girl got an extra Sunday night out and the household split up into parties for the afternoon, says The New York Sun.
 By twos and threes they arrived at the hosts home until there were left only the boarding mistress and the husband of the woman who had engi- neered the party. There was a quar- ter hour wait, and at last the husband strolled in.
