ARCH AGAIN ERECTED
AT SANTA MONICA
Lettering Which Caused So Much
Strife Has Been
Altered

Special to The Herald.
SANTA MONICA, June 5.-After a
checkered career of less than three
months during which time 1t has twice
been erected, twice torn down and once
condemned by the board of city trus-
tees, the "Welcome to Ocean Park"
arch Is again in place on Pier avenue,
Santa Monica, but the Objectionable
lettering has been. replaced by the
more appropriate salutation arch of
Welcome" This arch was built at the
opening of Ocean Parks recent carni-
val by the Business Mems association
of that city and it was the intention to
have 1t remain as a permanent attrac-
tion and Improvement, it having
lavish array of electric lights at it's
top and sides that at night illumined
the center of the town. AS the arch
stood on Santa Monica territory, a de-
mand was made that the wording be
changed, which was not needed, and
resulted in the matter being made the
subject of debate at several stormy
meetings of the city trustees.

morrow, the exercises taking place in

SIGNIFICANCE OF ToTEMs
Tribal Emblems Used in Alaska, Sa-
rnoa and North America

rnod ana Nortn America
1t is interesting to note that totem
ism is found, not only in Alaska but
among the North American Indians,
the aborigines of Australia, the Hotten-
tots of Africa and even the hill tribes of
India. Totems are also common among
the Samoans.
Broadly, the totem is the badge of a
clan or tribe, but it signifies a great
deal more than mere political or social
alliance. 1t is not only a tribal SYM
boil of nationality, but also an express
sion of religion; not simply bond OF
| union among primitive peoples. but
also a regulator of marriage laws and
of other social Institutions, says writ
err in the June Housekeeper. A totem
has been defined as "a class of material
objects which a savage regards with
superstitious respect, believing that
there exists between him and every
member of the class an intimate and
special relation
Among the Ojibway Indians there are
no fewer than twenty-three different
totems. Nine of these are quadrupeds,
beaver and other clans, eight are birds,
five are fishes and one is the snake.
Some extraordinary superstitions re-
garding totems prevail in Samoa. Thus,
1t is believed that if a Turtleman eats
of turtle, he will grow very i'll and
l. 1,rn n.1 In
his inside saying: "He ate me; l am
killing him." If Banana man uses a
banana leaf for a cap he becomes bald.
If Butterfy-man catches a butterfly,
it strikes him dead. If a Fowl-man
eats a fowl, delirium and death result.
And so on-all going to show that the
totem has something of the quality of
a fetch as well as the significance of a
family emblem.
Regarding totemism, it is to be noted
that the relation of mutual help and
protection includes also the totem it.
self: that is to say, if man takes
care of his totem, he expects the totem
to return the compliment. If the to-
tenn is dangerous animal, 1t must not
hurt his clansmen. The Scorpion-men
of Senegambia declare that the most
deadly scorpions will iun over their
bodies without hurting them. There
is Snake clan in Australia which
holds to a similar belief. Among the
Crocodile clan of the Bechuanas if a
man is bitten by a crocodile, or even
has water splashed on him by one. he
is expelled from the clan as one es-
teemed unworthy by the totem.

NEW YORK, June 5.-Plahs to estab-

Equitable Life Assurance society were
further complicated today by the resig-
nation of two more directors, making
five in all who have recently retired
from the board. A dispatch from Bos-
ton announced that T. jefferson Cool
idge had rendered his resignation, to
lowed by the resignation Of Jacob
Schiff, head of the banking house of
Kuhn, Loeb & Co., who has been a
member of the board Of directors for
twelve years. In addition announce
ment came from Cincinnati that Mel
vile E. ingalls, would also resign. Mr.
Schiff's resignation was conveyed in the
following letter to President Alexander:
NEW YORK, June 5, 19O5.--James
Alexander, Esq, president Of the Equit-
able Life Assurance society. Dear Sir
In view of the proceedings at the meet
ing of the board of the directors of the
Equitable Life Assurance society, held
last Friday, I feel constrained, after
mature reflection, to tender my resigna-
tion as a director of the society, to take
effect at once.
Throughout the recent controversy
have studiously refrained from any
action which might add to the compli-
cations with which the society has been
yfr arerltt, hos In al
silent in the face of many malicious
and baseless statements regarding the
bushes transactions between my firm
and the society which have been dis
seminated through your agents, not
withstanding your failure to publicly
disavow and deny these statemnts, in
stead of sending me (as you have re-
Gently done), private messages express
sive of regret for the indiscreet and
overzealous actions of your friends.
"The meeting of the directors last
Friday offered, it seems, to me, a
supreme opportunity for rescuing the
society from the evil situation into
which it has ben cast by factional dis
putes and by the conduct of its officers.
IF you and Mr.. Hyde had been able
az the critical moment to rise to the
occasion and had supported my motion
for the appointment of committee OF
directors consisting of men of nationa
reputation for high character and in
dependent Judgment, with authority to
select a chairman of the board with
plenary powers, just and effective
reorganization of the management of
the society, and the restoration of pub
lie confidence might have been pos
sible, but you and Mr.. Hyde have per-
mitted the psychological moment to
slip by and recognized the movement
only after the disintegration of the
board of directors had been begun and
it was too late to repair the damage
which had been done.
"In view of the present situation 1t
does not seem likely that there will
be an opportunity for independent ac-
tion in the board and 1 have reluct-
antly come to the conclusion that I
can no longer be of service to the
society by remaining upon it's board
Of directors, of which l have been a
member for twelve years.
VERY truly yours,
JACOB H SCHIFF,"

NEVADA PoSTP0NES ACTION
New York Life;s License Not to Be
Revoked Until Committee Has
Finished Investigation
BY Associated Press.


CARSON, New, Oct. 6.-The state
board of revenue met today at the
capitol to take action on the request
of Messrs. Halves and Harris, agents
of the New York Life Insurance COM
pany, to postpone final action relative
to revoking the license of the company
in Nevada.
The request of the representatives of
the company was that the state post
pone final action upon the case until
the company had chance to make its
defense before the investigating COM
mittee in New York. They did not
ask any revocation of the action of
the comptroller, but a suspension of
final action.
Governor Sparks, addressing the rep
representatives of the company, stated
that he fully Endorsed the act of the
commissioner of insurance. 1t had
been urged that many agents through
out the state would feel the hardship
of the revocation of the company's
license, and as the state desired to dc
nothing unfair to anybody, he consid-
cred the request to postpone final &C
ton until after the committees report
was a reasonable one.
Attorney General Sweeney main
tanned that clear case of the misuse
of funds had been proven by the COM
pany's own admission, when it con-
tributed money to political committees.
He was willing to await the action
of the investigating committee.
Comptroller Davis said he was willing
to abide by the judgment of the board
and agreed to take no final action
until after the investigation In New
York. The board decided to suspend
all further action until after the New
York investigating committee had fin
ished it's work.

0STE0PATHS CHARGE
BREACH OF CONTRACT
PACIFIC COLLEGE BRINGS CASE
INTO COURT
Plaintiffs Charge Former Instructors
With Deserving Their School and
Taking Away Thirty-TWo Pupils,
Who Have Entered Rival Institute

On an allegation of breach of con-
tract the Pacific college of osteopathy
yesterday brought suit against the Los
Angeles school of osteopathy before
Judge Wilbur in department eight of
the superior court.
The legal fight between the two
schools is attracting wide attention
among all osteopaths in Los Angeles,
and the court room was crowded dur
ing the hearing of the case yesterday.
The directors of the Pacific college
allege that just after the construction
of their fine new building they sent
to the Des Moines college of oste-
opathy and asked for instructors
1t is further alleged when these in
structors arrived in Los Angeles they
brought with them thirty-two pupils.
The pupils went to the Pacific college.
The eastern teachers were given pro-
fessors chairs at good salaries, ac-
cording to the statement of the Pacific
college people.
The agreement was that the teach
ers should work for one year at the
Pacific college and should not engage
in business for themselves as a rival
college for three years afterwards.
There was no written contract and
three weeks after taking their ap-
pointments, according to the allega-
tions of the plaintiffs in the suit, the
new professors called the students to
the auditorium and asked them to
leave and go to a new college founded
by the new professors on East First
street and known as the Los Angeles
college of osteopathy.
The thirty-two pupils imported from
Des Moines and a few others are
alleged to have answered the call and
deserted the Pacific faculty.
The case will be completed today.
