THE necessity Tor more stringent laws

THE necessity TOR more stringent laws

altogether undesirable class OF immi-
grants was one of the subjects discussed
at recent meeting of Grand Rapids
manufacturers aud business men. The
practice of steamship companies III solic-
iting and gathering immigrants entirely
regardless of their ability to meet the in
spection laws of this country and without
reference to their possible value as citi-
zens, was condemned and il was urged
that some measures should he provided to
put an end to such demoralizing activity.
These suggestions are i'll direction touch
ing which there has already been much
talk but too little action The gates of
Castle Garden should not cease TO swing

I'VE are going to be scalped by Lum-

directors yesterday, and another con-
tinued "If they would only hurry up
it would be so much easier, They have
cut off all escape and l for one am
ready for the operation"
For more than two hours yesterday
morning Directors Dockweiler, True
City Attorney Mathews, were closeted
with Mayor McAleer in his private Of
flee.
After the executive session 1t was
learned that the law in the case had
been under discussion and it was
hinted that further conferences were to
follow. Director Dockweiler said the
mayor was instituting little personal
investigation. The directors said they
were willing that public investigation
should be called.
Miss Jones at Work
Miss Jones assumed charge Of the
yesterday morning as If nothing
had happened. She said she had re-
tanned the keys to her desk and to the
safe and intended to keep them. She
said she was acting upon legal advice
in carrying on her work in the library.
The directors were amazed when they
learned of her action and President
Trueworthy exclaimed, But she can't

She was doing it anyway, and the
directors left the city hall with Miss
Jones mistress of all she surveyed.
Mayor McAleer wishes to push his
personal investigation a little farther
before deciding upon any definite
action as regards calling public in
vestigation of the charges against Miss
Jones made by the library board.
All yesterday morning the telephone
bells in the city hall were kept ring

whether or not the library board had

formed that they had not.

Lively Times at Bristol Cafe When
Death Valley Maenate Is
Recoonized

"Hey Shorty, dere he is," hoarsely
whispered one of the walters of the
Bristol cafe yesterday afternoon, as he
addressed companion. The other
waiter looked up at the huge frame in
the doorway and, failing to see any of
the marble stairway, knew instantly
that the good fairy of his dreams was
before him, and with a grunt of II saw
him first" he made dash for the new
conner as though about to embrace
him.
But Walter Scott, the man with the
loose change, walked to a table and or
dered punch. The table was in an ex-
treme corner of the room and he and
the friend who accompanied him evil
IDENTIFY desired to keep out of the lime
light.
The walters fell over one another
trying to serve the big man, and while
three were trying to bring the punch
the others were wondering if they
couldn't brush his hat or shine up his
wine glass.
When Scott finished his punch the
waiter approached with a smile and
waited for the tip. He gently dropped
a silver disk into the expectant hand
and the waiter began to doubt the tales
of fabulous wealth.
He spent yesterday in little excur-
sions about the city. His soft tanned
boots with the two-inch heels, and the
long black ulster, somewhat resembling
slicker, caused hundreds of pedes-
trians to recognize Scott, and while the
young women looked at the gigantic
build of the man and thought Of his
remarkable and romantic history, the
men looked at his trousers and thought
Of his remarkable and gigantic roll.
